All through that particular section of the county the cross roads were dotted with saloons, authorized by the commi: sioners, wherever there was a sawmill or railroad payroll to be absorbed. This course was followed despite the protests of sawmill men and railroad contractors, who found the saloons constant menaces, as well as destructive to the morale of their camp. The Denny-Renton Clay company, which operated a large plant at Taylor, made strenuous efforts to prevent a saloon from being opened at that place, but without avail. Over their pro- test the commissioners issued a license. y a cool, stylish Outing Suit will be a mighty acceptable adjunct to your wardrobe — it'll mean real comfort for you and will make the hot weather enjoyable in the extreme.
