The much hoped for flood came
at last, and we believe all our lumber
men and jobbers got their lumber ou
in reasonably good shape, except Mr.
! S. G. Roupe, of Bobs creek, who sue
ceeded in getting out only four creeI
- pieces of his timber. The run of lum
Der and timber is rather large for
fall food. All the RATS got started
for the lower market yesterday, and a
the river is in good rafting stage nov
it is likely all will get down safely
The returns from this run will mate
y rally assist the lumbermen with thei
T. winters work, and will make time
} brisk in the woods this winter.
