VP ."1 -. . - " ' ft1 i"- 4- Early Day Cattle Drive When Klamath Falls was a little cow town a fly-speck on a great open space on the maps of the West scenes like this were commonplace on the main street of the village. This fine early-day photograph, from the Maude Baldwin collection, shows a herd of beef stock choking up Main street in the very heart of what was then the business district between Payne avenue and Center street. - It was a common thing in those doys for all traffic to stop while the cowmen herded their stock through the streets paved with mud or dust, according to the current condition of the weather. The cattle in the photograph are believed to be part of the herds at the old Mitchell ranch, which stretched over much of what is now the southeast suburbs. The photographer stood at obout the site of the Baldwin hotel, and shot across Main street toward Lake Ewauna. Most of the buildings on the opposite side of the street have long since been removed, but the stone structure, seen near the center of the picture, still stands. The near building was the K amath Renuhlirnn nffire km t-i Herald and News, and the Chitwood drug store was the lost building on up the street. Note the horseless rigs left standing along the side of the street, and the condition of the sidewalk in the foreground of the picture The city fathers must have had lots of complaints about that! Movement of cattle through Klamath Falls continued into modern times, and only a few years ogo, the residents ot Alamedo street made periodical complaint to the city council that passing sheep and cattle trampled their lawns ond flower gardens. This year, the protests came from Lake shore drive, outside tne city limits. (See present day picture of scene on page 9).
