The Menominee Lumber Co. has
closed their big logging camp, com
monty known as Golfers logging
camp, which is situated about II
miles below Trout Lake on the White
Salmon river This Co. controlled
the logging camps of Trout Lake
which suspended operations some
days ago. The settlers of this valley
object to this company operating a
dam on the White Salmon river which
IS located near what is known as the
Harvey Byrkett ranch. The dam sis
operated by gates which can be
lowered and raised When the dam
is filled the gates are raised and a
tremendous volume of water rushes
down the stream which forces the logs
to the Columbia river. The settlers
claim by the use of this dam destruct-
i've floods are let out, that wash out
their irrigation head gate and in other
ways injure the irrigating bitches,
being great detriment to their crops.
The Menominee Co. claim they cannot
move the timber of this valley unless
assisted by the use of this dam. Both
sides claim they are in the right.

Evangelists Coburn and Brymer are
very earnest workers. They held
quite a number of cottage prayer
meetings in the neighborhood during

the almost obsolete custom of visiting
from house to house. And although
they do not carry hatchets, they
sometimes push their evangelistic
work into the saloons. They expect
to rest few days at Belmont and
Hood River. From the latter place
they expect to go to Dufur to engage
in series of meetings at that place.
Rev. H. G. Clarke is also a very
earnest and successful worker.
There have been over 100 conversions
and accessions to the church on the
Belmont circuit since he took charge

ber of members is more than double
what it was at that time.
