After two or three yenrs experi
ence with a Commercial Club nt
Forest Grove, the citizens become
tired and so decided that they
might letter derive revenue from
the traffic mid nt their last election
elected "wet" council. A license
has since been granted to A. G.
Witt sou and he is erecting a saloon
on a Main street vacant lot. Now
the president and trustees of Paci
fic University have filed a complaint
in the Circuit Court for nu injunc
tion restraining the issuance of a
license to Mr. Watson. Forest
drove has never had a snloou be
cause the original townsite deeds,
granted by the trustees of Pnclfic
University and Tualatin Academy
contain a pro'dbitorv clause. The
"Comtnercinl Club" with a member
ship of iioout .)oo, managed to evate
the prohibition laws. Mnuy be
lieved thnt the town might as well
derive n revenue from the trnffic.
The decision of the court will be
watched for with much iutctcst.
