LaCamas Post September 12, 1908
F.B.Barnes made a trip to Hood River the first of the week. Mrs.Barnes,who ad 
been visiting there,accompanied him home.

Mrs.Mitchell returned home from Seattle the first of the week,where she had 
been visiting her daughter,Mrs.D.J.Bruce.

Miss Carrie Cott of New York is visiting the family of her uncle,G.C.Scott.She 
was accomapnied to Seattle by a sister,who was on her way to Corea as a 
missionary.

There was a bargain sale of liqour on the street,Wednesday,when the stock of 
the liqours from the Office Saloon was sold to satisfy a judgement in favor of 
the Mt.Hood Brewing Company. Most of the goods were purchased by the saloon 
men of the town,Wm. Cunninigham,the new manager of the Office Saloon,getting 
the larger part of it.

H.C.Asher left Tuesday for a two months trip to Mississippi Valey states.

Mrs.R.J.Hamilton returned Tuesday from a two weeks visit at the home of her 
parents at Cunningham,Wash.

A Mr.Wilkins,of the Vancouver Undertaking Co., wa sin town Tuesday,and said 
that his company is thinking of opening a branch here.if they decide to do 
so,a lot will be brought and a suitable building erected.

I.L. Tickner,employed in the comppsing rooms of the Oregonian,spent a few days 
the last of last week and the first of the present week in LaCamas.Mr.Tickner 
formerly lived on a ranch near this place,and he usually spends his vacatiosn 
here.He and his family were the guests at the home of James Simmons.

At a meeting held Monday evening a cemetery association was organized and the 
following officers elected; M.T.Brown,President; C.T.Asher,vice 
president;E.M.Haley,ecretary;Ulrich Roffler,treasurer; Albert 
Davis,A.J.Oakley,J.J.Harrington,trustees. The association will be incorporated.

Glenn Ranck was fourth in the race for the legislature,Tuesday,which was a 
surprise,as it was generally conceded that he would get second or third 
place,in the former case he would have been nominated.During the campaign and 
for several months a hard fight has been waged upon him,but it is doubtful if 
the things his enemies said would hurt him so much as his own word s printed 
in the Chronicle. Not that he took any unpopular stand,but his constant 
reference to his war record and other acts disgusted the voters. but,after 
all,it is very doubtful if the present nominee will quit the legislature 
(providing they are elected) with a record equal to Ranck's.

Albert VanCamp of Vancouver visited here this week.

Will Young,of Ovand,Mont.,visited here this week.He is a brother in law to 
Mrs.J.W.Schraeder and Miss Arlie Woods.

Mrs.Andrew Carrick will be in her studio Monday afternoon,Sept.14th. Any new 
students wishing lessons this coming season ought to make arrangements when as 
the time is limited.

S.G.Hadley has moved from Portland to his ranch just west of LaCamas.
