A Just Complaint
Freshman Honored
We’re not running a Drug Store
The following suggestion and
complaint, were lodged last Sat­
urday by A. C. Anderson, one of
the leading farmers o f Upper
Garfield and as it is not the first
similar complaint that has come
to the attention of the News, the
business men of Estacada should
take some action to correct the
evil.
Mr. Anderson came to town
Saturday to spend his money
with the home merchants. He
was forced to tie his team and
wagon on Zobrist St., while he
did his buying, owing to lack of
municipal hitching facilities, but
in the mean time had loaded on
a goodly supply of livestock feed.
After an absence of a half
hour, on returning to the wagon,
he discovered that sohie of the
towns horses and cows had made
a good, full, square meal from
his supply of feed, besides hav­
ing sampled everything from gro­
ceries to hardware.
“ Andy” was mad, and he had
every reason to be, but was rea­
sonable enough to suggest that
all livestock at large be kept on
the flat above town and not al­
lowed to wander about the busi­
ness district.
How much longer are the mer­
chants of Estacada going to al­
low this condition of affairs to
continue? They cannot blame
anyone but themselves if the dol­
lar that should be spent at home,
goes elsewhere.

Signet Ring*
Probably any jeweler can buy
and sell jewelry, but it remains
for Estacada’s purveyor of watch­
es, rings and the like, to design
and manufacture his own rings
suited to the local trade.
Mr. Beckwith recently design­
ed and executed several different
styles of signet or initial "E. H.
S. ” rings, which are the envy of
the high school students.
Under date of April 7th, a li­
cence was issued at Vancouver,
for the marriage of Miss Ella
Fanton of Estacada, age 17 and
Jas. T. Lovegrove o f Portland,
age 29.

Bard Buys At Scappoose
Sale
In accordance with the ten­
dency in this community to con­
fine the livestock raising along
lines of thoroughbred registered
stock, Will Bard and Everett
Snibley of Springwater, Thurs­
day motored to Scappoose, where
they attended the Harry West
sale of registered Jerseys.
Bard purchased a young thor­
oughbred, registered Jersey bull,
which will replace an older regis­
tered thoroughbred.
Last Saturday in Portland,
there was formed the Columbia
Jersey Cattle Club, comprising
the counties of Multnomah,
Clackamas, Columbia and Clatsop
counties. If this organization
flourishes, as it will, it is prob­
able that several of the local Jer­
sey enthusiasts will become mem­
bers.
A letter from Prin. Burgess F.
Ford of Willamette Academy
states that Chester Womer, late
of the Estacada High School, is
the only Freshman to obtain a
place on the college debating

bate against O. A. C. soon.
Adolph Spiess, also of Estacada

embankment, but was none the
worse for the accident, excepting
for a few bent parts. Bob Mat
toon of Estacada. acting engine­
er, jumped in time to miss the
fall.
The spring jury list, drawn
last week for service in the Cir­
cuit Court, beginning next Mon­
day, comprises but one local man,
being Ben Rawlins of Upper Gar­
field.

cada school’s play shed, the

facilities.
