Lewis River. March 90, 1877.
The water-wheel belonging to the
La Centre Saw-mllI Company, bursted
during a recent freshet, causing con.
siderable damage. but the energetic
proprietors soon fixed her up aud are
again merrily whiting away.
acob Links dwelling house, near
Cedar Creek, was burned some time last
week. 1t is supposed to be the work
pr an incendiary. Loss, probably, two
"Or three hundred dollars. The matter
has not been investigated yet as Mr..
Link is down the river.
There has been Joint Stock Com.
pany formed at La Cel.re. VIZ under
stand. for the purpose Of building u
steamer the coming season.
The yearly migration Of men bound
for the fisheries has set in, which will
take most Of The surplus laborers. This
with the Increased demand for hired
help will probably make wages higher,
IN this section, than for man years
past.
