TO OLD
WOODWARD TOLLCATE
EXPRESSED BY COURT
Judge Schanney Declares Eff
fort Will be Made to Have
Relic of Past Dispensed With

The old Woodward tOllgate which
is in operation on the Weston Elgin
road stands an excellent chance to be
done away with il a decision of the
county court of Umatilla county can
be realized. ..t
The county court thinks the toll
gate Is thing of antiquity, nFemnant
of other times and has no plSce In the
lives and activities of the people Of
Umatilla county in these days of 1922,
and a move to relegate the old land
mark to the past is under way.
The secretary of state has informed
the court that the state records con-
tain nothing that would lead him to
believe that the gate is being operat-
ed under state permission. A search
/ is being made now by II. T. Brown
county clerk, In an effort to ascertain
whether the operators of the tollgate
have legal permission from the county
to exact payment from travellers over
the road.
If it is found that no records are ir
existence showing that the operators
of the gate have a right to collect
from travellers, move to abolish the
ipractice will be taken.
Judge I. M. Schannep has already
sent formal notice to the Woodward
family in which they are requested t.
show canse why the privilege OF
charging toll should not be denied
them. Not only do owners Of vehicles
of various kinds have to pay but own
lers of livestock also have to pay fol
