Devoted to the Interests ot Eastern Clackamas County VOLUME XX. EASTERN CLACKAMAS NEWS NO. 42 A. A. PRICE STATE REPRESENTATIVE Below we print a clipping from the Canby Herald, on the candidacy of A1 Price as a representative of the people of Clackamas county. We have known A1 for a number of years, and no man in Clackamas county is better qualified to repre sent the people of his district than he is. One of honor, integrity and ability, and will fight for the right of his constituency. A REAL BUSINESS MAN To the older residents of Clack amas county the life of A. A. Price, Democratic candidate for represen tative in the legislature, is an open book, showing his development from young manhood to mature years; from a position of obscurity to one of prominence; from com parative moderate means to reason able affluence, and on no page of that book is there a line that his friends would have obliterated. In later years his counsel and advice have always been sought in com', mercial and social affairs of his home town, Oregon City, and valu ed, and his judgment on matters of importance has been invariably sound. Should he be elected to represent the people of this county in the leg islature they will have a good lis tener and a good business adviser; a sane, sound and sensible business man, safe as to our financial system, reasonable in all requirements, but unyielding to the demand for pro tection to American ideals of right living. A wholesome man of good physical proportions. A just and able and honest man. A1 Price is not rich, except in generosity, but his commercial suc cess has given him a competence. The big thing about him is his un failing common sense, and his marked ability to listen to others and promptly reach wise de cisions out of the conflict of opin ions. Those who know him most intimately thinks he fits the need of the hour and the position he seeks upon request of his many friends throughout the state. Mr. Price is outspoken relative to his position on public problems and he has no hesitation in expressing himself along these lines either privately or publicly. He is a busi ness man and always deals with public matters in a business way, making no attempt to dodge or straddle an issue. He is a business man thorough and complete, and the opportunity to send a real busi ness man to the legislature is now before the people of this county. $1.50 A YEAR THURSDAY, JULY 22, 192«. DOGS POISONED ROAD WORK RUSHED Several dogs in this community were poisoned on Saturday and Sun day; whether accidentally or other wise it is not known. However, it was, indeed, sad to think such a thing should occur, for if anyone wishes to get rid of ani mals there are much more humane ways than by poisoning. There is a possibility, however, that this poisoned food was scattered about for rats, but if such was the cae, the owners of dogs should have been notified. Some of the dogs died very sud denly and no help could be given them, but the Airdale belonging to Mr. Ray Johnson was taken to the hospital and is getting along very well. The County Court is rushing work on the market road between Carver and Estacada. This piece of road will be a great benefit to Estacada as it makes a first class piece of highway through to Portland and Oregon City. Our citizens have Judge Cross to thank for this road as much as any one, as he was instrumental in the initiation of the plan which has made it a reality.

WARNS AGAINST USE OF OIL SPRAYS D IM O R E ¡M IP S FINE AUTO (By Elmer M. Colder) You often read in the newspapers ; bout Dinty Moore, and how Jugs gets in bad with his irate wife when he attempts to visit “Dinty Moore’s”. Wei!, Dinty Moore of Eagle Creek is running a somewhat different place of business than the Dinty Moore of eastern fame, but no doubt he is as progressive, even though not as dar ing, as that old Dinty in the eastern city. We’ll call him J. M. Moore, as that’s his name, and if you’d like to kr.ow just how to find his place, just turn east from Clackamas station and go to Carver—keep on the north side of the river and go through Barlow and Eagle Crc-k, watching the road signs as you go along, as you'll see several of them telling about “Dinty Moore” and his auto camp. You will find this wonder place a short distance east of Eagle Creek stores on the main highway to Estacada, right along Eagle Creek, the creek runs right through the 40-acre tract belonging to Dinty. About 14 months ago Moore start ed up business here, by opening a confectionery and service station, and preparing one finest camp of th e grounds in Oregon. This confec tionery building looks lots better than it did a year ugo, as Dinty has put some finishing touches to it that couldn’t help but spruce it up, but above all ho has developed a dickens of a fine auto camp ground, and you can drive down on thc flats and all around with your car and have a good road w-hcrevcr you go. All the conveniences you could de sire are there, including four rest rooms, swimming holes, wading pools for little folks, fountains, and mind yon, the water comes from a won derful spring, the water of it so good that people of the cities take some home in bottles and jars for a treat, as it is better than city water, so they say. Every man, woman and child call ed Mr. Moore “Dinty”. So when he opened up business his friends p r- sisted in calling him “Dinty Moore” and he saw fit to name his camp “Dinty Moore’s Auto Camp.” rlie has some more improvements in mind that he would not divulge in formation on at this time, but no doubt will let us know about his plans soon. “Dinty” has lived around Estacada for many years and is well known. He has always taken a great part in community enter prises and says he’s goin’ to keep right on boosting for better things.
