'Hie reversal by the supreme
court last week of the circuit
court decision in the case of the
appea' of the Weyerhaeuser Land
Co. marked the close of a case
that has been watched closely by
the timber interests of the coast
and is of the utmost importance
to the taxpayers of Clackamas
County.
The Weyerhaeuser interests
asked for and were granted by
Judge Campbell a reduction to
$92,502. on their timber valua­
tion. from the original $188.145
and the reversal of this decision,
won by District Attorney Hedges
and his assistant Tom Burke,
means the saving of a large
amount of taxes for this county.
In a letter received this week
from the ,). R. Me Curdy's of
Seobey, Montana, who formerly
resided in Estacada. it was learn­
ed that on their return home
from their Oregon visit last win­
ter, Jean, the seven year old
daughter was taken ill with
small-pox, but is now completely
recovered.
To add to the general hard
luck, it is likely Mr. McCurdy
will have to shut down his pros­
perous lumber business, owing
to the recent order passed by the
railways, whereby after August
1st, cars will only he furnished in
that section this year for the
handling of foodstuffs, grain, etc.
The Dave Eschlemans and Al
Lindseys, formerly of Estacada.
but now at Seobey. are reported
I to he well, happy and prospering.

Undoubtedly a larger number
of people from this community
will attend the 1917 session of
the Gladstone Chautauqua, than
ever before, as many are already
making plans to camp on the
grounds, with others contem­
plating regular daily auto trips
to take in all of the entertain­
ments and lectures on the pro­
gram.
A perusal of the half-page ad­
vertisement of the Chautauqua,
appearing elsewhere in this issue,
is well worth anyone’s time and
will result in the reader so ar­
ranging his or her plans, so that
he or she, or both, or the whole
family, will arrange to spend at
least a day at the Gladstone
grounds this month.
The Chautauque opens July
10th and continues for thirteen
days and with the new $0,000
auditorium now under construc­
tion, but to he completed on
opening day, a treat is in store
for all.
