C. Hedemann, manager of the Homo
lulu Iron Works, who returned the other
dav from an extended visit East, states
that the New York agency of the Homo
lulu Iron Works CO., Ltd, bids fair not
only to become disappearing but to
yield a surplus.
Through the agency the company $
large contracts in Mexico, including an
immense sugar mill and a distillery, Will
be manipulated. Milliken Co., New
York, furnish the iron buildings. The
local shops of the company will con-
struct the mill, the agency shipping the
raw material hither. Some work in the
company contracts will be done by
the Fulton Iron Works, San Francisco.
Special machines and apparatus are
contracted for by the agency for its
general operations here and abroad.
Mr. Hedemanu states that the agency
has attracted much attention from the
big sugar men in New York. They
visit it and make many inquiries about
the Hawaiian sugar industry, being as
tonished at the large yields of our plan
tations and wanting to know how they
are obtained.

SUMNER
Will Make inspection
of the Military
Sites.

MaJor-General Sumner, Z. S. a.,
Commander of the Pacific Division of
the United States Army, with headquar-
ters at San Francisco, accompanied by
Mrs. Sumner, Captain Jervey, 10th Cav
airy, U. s. A, his aide -de-camp, Mrs.
Jervey and Major Lea Febiger, U. S.
A, inspector, arrived on the transport
Logan and are guests at the Royal Ha-
wallan Hotel. The party will remain
until December 10, although it is posi-
bic they will not return to the Coast
until early in January.
General Sumner is on tour of in
spection of the military district of Ha-
waii, which includes Camp Mckinley !;
the new army post at Kahauiki, Moana-
iua; the military reservation on the
slopes toward Wahiawa; the reservation
at Pearl Harbor, and the sites selected
at Kaimuki and Waikiki for batteries.
The first place to be inspected may be
Kahauiki. General Sumner is interested
IN this new post, as two additional com
panles of the 10th infantry arrived on
the Logan to join the garrison of two
companies already at Camp Mckinley,
and the entire battalion is to be housed
at kahauiki when finished. The new
post, while designed to have space for a
large body of men, is being constructed
under an appropriation sufficient to
erect only two barracks, or accommo-
dations for but two companies. Gen
eral Sumner will recommend that two
additional barracks be constructed. so
that the entire battalion may be prop
erly housed. When Kahauiki is occu-
pied Camp Mckinley will be abandoned.
For the next two or three days the
two new companies will be given an op-
portunity to unpack at Camp Mckinley
and get into trim. General Sumner Will
then inspect the camp and a review viii
be held by Major Van Vliet for the
general. In the meantime Ma ior Febi-
ger will inspect accounts and other mat
ters coming under his jurisdiction
AS to what will be done at Kaimuki
and Waikiki about erecting batteries
there, General Sumner states that he
has no direct knowledge. ''That is a
matter for the engineers he said.
Asked as to whether he favored the
establishment of an acclimation camp
near Honolulu for troops going to and
returning from the Philippines, General
Sumner said yesterday:
''The matter was mentioned to me
last night. but it is something to which
I have given no especial thought. I
don't know that it would be really
worth while 1t is a question for the
doctors to determine. AS far as I have
observed, the troops arriving in the
Philippines from the mainland appear
to be well enough to do good service. "
General Sumner is a golf enthusiast.
Yesterday afternoon, accompanied by
his aide and E. NJ. Boyd, he was driven
to the links at Moanalua where he en-
ioyed an afternoon with the sticks.

.pf first Importance at the meeting of
khe Young Peoples Societies at the
saMethodist church last night in the
! cause of temperance. Society was ar
raigned for its drinking by one speaker
speaking; the government was held up
to public opinion for it's alleged course
in permitting an almost unrestricted
increase in the granting Of licenses,
while the police were scored for their
failure to enforce laws, and what was
Iaxity-their alleged protection of Of
tenders.
The meeting was a large one, the
church being filed to the doors. On
the platform besides Rev. J. W. Wad-
man, pastor of the Methodist church,
We're Rev. w. D. Westervelt, Mr.. Tosh,
County Treasurer r. H. Trent, John
Martin, Judge Lyle Dickey, President
of the Young Peoples Societies, and,
later on Mrs. S. E. Damon. The meet
ing was opened with prayer by Rev.
Mr. Wadnan, followed by a reading
of passages of the scriptures relating
to drink and it's evil, by Mr.. Tosh, who
also offered prayer. There was fine
musical program. Miss Marion Bell
sang most charmingly 80 Savior Hear
U.s." and DR.. West of the Queens Hos
(pital, who rendered violin solo which
showed him to be an artist. Possessed
of a violin of fine tone, the solo was
rendered with rare ability.
Pastor wadman opened the speech
making by referring to the drink habit,
as being as old as the Bible. He spoke
of the many plans by which it has been
hoped to solve the liquor problem. Some
claim it may be regulated; others that
there should be a prohibition law; 9TH
ers believe that prohibition does not
prohibit; some believe in high license,
and some in restricted license. Some
believe in local option. others that
there must be education on the liquor
subject in the schools. All were agreed
that the drink evil existed in our midst.
He did not say that it was any worse
here than elsewhere, but if it were
abolished here the community would
be better off. He was not the man to
take another man by the throat to
convince him, but he would talk to
him.
County Treasurer Trent then gave
an excellent resume of the liquor bill
passed by the last legislature, No. 81.
His explanation, while brief, was very
lucid.

wARRErron MILL SOLD.
Astoria National Bank Secures 1t for the
Sum Of s7s,ooo.


The receivers sale OF the Warrenton
Lumber eompany's mill was held yester-
day afternoon and the property was sold
to the Astoria National bank, the heav-
iest creditor Of the company, for $4,000.
The affairs Of the company appear to
be badly complicated. Sometime ago
suits were fled by the Astoria National
bank and John Hahn, to foreclose Q
mortgage, resulting in the bank being
given a judgment for s2s,s0l.65, while
Mr.. Hahn secured Judgment for s5i63,
and George Warren was appointed as re-
ceiyer. Besides this mortgage, there
is also second mortgage on the prop
erty in the sum Of $6235 given to se-
cure G. r. Lester and other stockholders
for the amounts guaranteed by them ON
the original note, given the Astoria Ma
tional bank. In addition to the above
there are unsecured claims against tae
company amounting to $4,000. The
holders Of these unsecured claims have
flied petitions in the United States court
asking tnat the company be declared q
bankrupt. These petitions are awaiting
the appointment of new federal Judge
before they will be passed upon. Con-
sidering the fact that the unsecured
claims against the company amount to
100000 the amount for which tine mill
was sold is considered somewhat small.

VISITING PATRIARCH
Hon. John Minto, Of Salem, Mingling
With Old Friends in Astoria.

For several days past Hon. John Min.
to, of Salem, has been visiting lifelong
friends in this city and county, having
come down, primarily, to attend the
funeral of Hon. Augustus c. Writ, lately
deceased. Having paid the last tribute
or respect and affection to his dead com.
panion Of long ago, Mr.. Minto has been
moving about among the homes of other
pioneer people who have rejoiced in his
coming.
lie was driver of the lead.mule team
and captain Of the outfit, with which Mr.
Writ and his young family crossed the
continent in 1874, and with Mr.. Writ, he
and 10 others, founded their first homes
in this state, upon the plains Of Clat-
sop. and there Mr.. Mimic married, and
ncighbored with him for years. But
time and death and circumstances have
wrought many sad changes in that little
community, and from the viewpoint OF
his SO years, this fine old citizen OF
Oregon, finds much to sadden him, but
the same vim and yigor that has made
him so useful to every community in
which he has lived in Oregon, still pos.
sesses him, and while deploring the
things that cannot be helped, he looks
eagerly TO the future for more of life's
work to do, and is cheerful and energetic
as ever.
No reliable history of this state will
ever be written that does not concede
a goodly portion of its space and matter
to the helpful things done for Oregon by
John Mimic.
