One of the most successful! coun­ ty division meetings in point of at­ tendance, enjoyment and public interest, was held at Eagle Creek last Saturday evening. Elliott's new hall, with its excellent maple floor was prettily decorated and a fine crowd [from Eagle Creek and surrounding precincts attended. Estacadans to the number of 100 or more, accompanied by the Estaeada orchestra of five pieces and the Cas­ cade male quartet, went in a special car, which returned about 11 o’clock But nearly every visitor stayed un­ til the windup of the combined meeting and social session which included a delightful dance. The Eagle Creek people proved royal hosts. $25,000 money to loan on good mortgages at current rate “ B u zz ” W h o o p s 'e r u p . One of the features of the meeting was the apperance of •‘ Buzz" Thomas, Socialist candidata for the legislature, who made a speech against ciunty < iv si n. ‘ Buzz” lived up to his name, during his peppery ten minutes talk, Divested of verbiage, his principal argument was that bridge building made high taxes in Clackamas and would he no less In Cascade county. Then he digressed: " A ll there is to this thing of division" he said, " is that some fellers at Estaeada will starve to death unless they get a chance to suck a public teat. They are just as apt to hang onto the coin as they are at Oregon City. Then they’ ll over ride the law, because they did when the precinct went dry and the town went wet and they issued licences for saloons. Why there was a feller up there says it ought to be worth $100 to get me to quit talking against county division. Wasn’t that try in’ to bribe me? I've been in every county in this state ar.d they’re trying to pull the wool over your eyes about taxes."

E, Belfils in an earnest talk which roused much applause, told "Buzz’’ that Estaeada did not vio­ late the law in issuing licences to saloons, as the supreme court had decreed that au incoiporated town could regulate the liquor triffic if the people voted wet. " I was a member of the council when the licencese was issued,” he continued warmly,’ ' and I want to tell you that it would not have been possible for blind piggers to exist iiad it not been that outside people supported them as much as those in Estaeada. And there was more drunkeness than since the saloons K came in." A letter from a former Eagle Creek resident. Andrew W. King, of Hood River was read by Mr Devine, opposing county division.
