Thursday, December 1 7 . 1908
J. E. Defebaugh, editor of the
“'American Lumberman” of Chica
go, who has liestowed such marked
]>raise on Douglas fir, has the fol
lowing to say editorially in the cur
rent issue of the 1 ‘Lumberman” :
The Pacific Northwest makes a
wonderful appeal to every visitor.
It is a land of living waters, of gold
en soil, of mineral wealth beyond
comprehension, of forests which
yv ill bless mankind when other
lands are desolate, a land of moun
tain, plain and valley, of a people
great in intellect, energy, cndurauce
and ktudliness.
In this golden
Northwest, in a climate without the
harshness of the North or the ener
vating softness of the South, these
people are building an empire
They have harnessed the streams
for power, ore ponriug them ever
the plains, have produced fruitful
fields and gardens;they are wresting
from the earth its mineral wealth;
they are converting the forests into
forms of utility and beauty; they
are building schools and colleges;
the Hible version af every man
dwelling under his own vine and fig
tree is realized here, where his ev
ery bodily need and intellectual
want may be gratified. The nat
ural wealth of the. country is great
and great are its achievements, but
better than all this are the people
themselves, a chosen race growing
in numbers aud in all the accom
plishments aud graces which make
a people mutually useful aud happy
The convention of the Oregon
State Dairy Association at Salem
last week was the most successful
ever held by that body. Washing
ton and. California were represented
in both attendance aud exhibits.
The grand prize for best display of
dairy products was awarded to F.
A. Schubinger of Salem for an ex
hibit comprising 26 varieties of
cheese.
The Douglas Creamery
Co, of Roseburg wou first award
for highest scoring creamery butter
F. ©. Mattke of Sweet Horn», for
highest scoring dairy butter, and

dairymen pledged a fund of $150
per month for the employment of
an expert to bring dairy conditions
throughout the state up to the high
est possible standard. An appro
priation of $6000 will be asked from
the Legislature. President F. L.
Kent of Corvallis was re-elected,
with Carl Abrams, of Salem, Secre
tary. The time of naxt year’s
meeting will be choeen to harmo

Historical
While constructing the first
bridge across the Clackamas river
one of the men, a Mr. D. Kelan,
walked out on one of the timbers,
missed' his footing and Tell into the
water, dis.ipjieariug, 1; -ver to be
seen again. He was soon to have
beeu wed to one of the leadiug
young ladies^of that day. She is
still living and is an esteeiuubU.
mother and grandmother, loved and
respected by her many friends.
One of the hooks made to fish for
Mr. Kelan’ s body can be seen at
the borne of Doc. Palmateer. The
search was in vain. They spent
three days tryiug to find the body.
As the river is known to send part
of its water'under a strata of rock
from thedeep pool above and under
the bridge, the body must have
gone under this strata aud got
caught, for it was never found.
Mr. Wade, father of present W.
H. H. Wade, came in an early day
and settled on the property joining
Estacada on the North. He had
three sons and two daughters, Mar
tha and Lyda. Aunt Lyda, as all
the early pioneers call her, was
married when »’ mere child to Uncle
George'Currin, oueof the founders
of Currinsville, Martha, to a Mr,
Cavot. Charles li-'ed and died on
his farm, near Clackamas Station.
R. M. Wade owns the hardware
store of R. M. Wade &|Co. of Port
land, and W. H. H. Wade, one of
our townsmen, still owns the old
home place where he has speut most
of his life, and where he was left
motherless very suddenly oue night
in early pioneer times. His dear,
kind mother going to bed at night
ia her usual health. After sleeping
a while she awoke and told her hus
band she was in greatj pain. He
called W. H. H. to go for Mrs,
Pierce, he ran putting on his clothes
as he went. Although but a short
time intervened lie was a mother
less boy before he returned home.
A good wife, true mother and kind
neighbor had been suddenly called
to her reward, one that the sparcely
»-tiled country could illy aford to
to loose in those early days when
one such life meant so much to all
Mother 2 ,Wade was among those
tried and true characters that God
created to compose his early pion
eers of, it was true mother, woman
in all its sense.
Her daughter,
Lydia Currin Mars, showed much
of that mothers' characteristic in an
incident of her early life to be
mentioned in its proper place by
and by. Wm. Wade was never a
fighter, he never saw a^fight, when
young, that he couldn’t, or didn't,
run from. He never went much on
the saying, "H e that fights and
runs away, Lives t<f fight another
day." He believed iu^the running
act straight without the fighting.
All boys will find It a better policy
Ilian to fight. Wade never had a
Mack eye.

Miss Myrtle Park is teaching
school near Sandy P. O.
Mr. Henry O^rnore was up visit
ing his family. He intends going
iu the dairy business.
From present indications it seems
as thouglx there will be three more
saw mills here next summer.
The dance given at the Howell
residence by the Howell boys will
not lie forgotten soon by those who
had the pleasure to lie there. The
music was fine,|the crowd was grand
and the hospitality of the Howells
was superb. We as bachelors put
special stress on the delicious chick
eu supper which made several of us
sick on account of making^hogs of
oursel ves.
We notice a Benton Co. paper
states that thev raise as good an
apple there as anywhere in the state
and thatjland can be bought at from
$35 to f t 00 an acre. We raise as
good an apple as they raise in Ben
ton Co. and land can be bought
here at from f to to $35 an acre.
Furthermore we have au altitude of
1300 feet, aud while Benton Co.
apples are coloring in the fog ours
are coloring in the sunshine.
We are glad to note the position
the P rogress is taking in the
boosting line. We like the P rogress
we like to see it increase in circula
tion, we like to help it get subscrib
ers, its part of Estacada and we are
interested in Estacada and its to our
benefit to see Estacada grow. But
it ought to have some good wide-a
wake correspondents in the different
communities to get the local news.
The circulation of a country paper
depends on the local news, the ad
vertising depends on the circulation
and the prosperity of the paper de-
qends on both.
Mr. Rolley and the Homer boys
are clearing a place for a mill-site
and intend putting in a mill in the
near future.
A phone company v i s organized
here and have commenced work
which will give Dodge better com
munications with theowtside world.

Mr. and Mrs. lies of Eagle Creek

Sunday.
Mr. Edward Burgharat and >:tw-
