Immense Irrigation Scheme In Union

A special correspondence from
Cove, Union county, says of the inn
mense power plant being built in
Union county:
The Grande Ronde Water company
has placed an order for a 1000 horse

Little Minam river east of Cove.
A portion of the power developed
will be used in boring tunnel 26,0
feet in length through the mountain
ridge lying between Minam and Cove.
supplying water for irrigation in
Grand Ronde valley. The original in
tention was to bring the water around
the base of the mountains in a canal
of about 80 miles in length, but this
was abandoned for the more direct
route of a tunnel straight through
the hills. The tunnel, according to
present plans, is to be 10 feet square
and nearly five miles in length. I'M
mense machinery will be required.
The power will be furnished from the
plant on the Little Minam. This will
be one of the longest tunnels any,
where in the northwest, and will so
through the mountains above Cove.
The power plant will be installed as
early as practicable in the spring, and
the company expects to have, in addi-
ton to the force required for tunnel
construction, a 1000-horse power to
put on the market in this valley by
September 1, 1907.

at the end OF the third year these
four will select two more of the same
caliber. the first two resigning to be
succeeded by two others. Two to re-
sign every year thereafter, each pair

FLOUR
SHIPPED ABROAD
$4,000 SACKS THIS
WEEK TO THE ORIENT.
All Sent by One Firm and VIII Be
Followed by Other Consignments-
The Pendleton Product is the Pio-
neer i'm Some Manchurian, japanese
and Chinese Districts and the Only
Flour Found There.

Notwithstanding the boycott which
has been conducted by China against
American flour and other manufac-
lures in the past year, Pendleton mills
continue to send thousands of barrels
of flour into the orient.
This week the Byers' mills will send
out $4,000 sacks of flour to Japan
and China and other orders will be
filled as fast as the mills can grind
out the flour.
The shipment to be sent out this
week will go from Portland on the
steamship Arabia and will leave the
o. R. & N. docks some time during
the week. 1t will be sonsigned to
Yokohama, Hong Kong and Mogi
merchants. From these points 1t will
be distributed into the interior of
China, Manchuria and Japan by river
junks, coasting steamers and rail-
roads.
Pendleton flour goes into districts
in China every month, in which no
American flour had ever been han
died before and thus the Chinese are
introduced to the Pendleton product,
first of all. Foreign merchants have
written repeatedly that in many
places where Pendleton flour is used,
the words upon the sacks are the only
words in the English language to be
found in those places.

tors will not permit anyone to see

Larger Facilities Needed.

Not only u union depot for the O.
Il. & \. aud W. y c. X. in this city,
but union stockyards for these two sys-
tens as well, is one of the possibili-
ties of the future in Pendleton.
owing to the fact that the @. r. &
\. stockyards are now located in the
heart of the city and the land upon
aluable-too valuable in fact, to be
used as stockyards. the company has
been quietly seeking solution of the
problem of removing their yards to
some outside location more conven-
lent for stockmen and away from the
residence district of the city.
A solution of the stockyards problem
of both roads offers itself in union
stockyards to be located upon the
Cunningham tract of land inst west of
the w. & C. r. yards and freight Of
fees. This tract of land lies adjoining
the line of the o. r. & N. on the west
and that system would have to build
but short section of side track to
reach yards located there, and the
w. & C. r. could arrange to reach the
yards by joint track from the propos-
eT union depot.
There large yards could be built,
with streets bordering them on every
side, making them easy OF access from
all roads leading into the city. They
would be outside of the thickly set
tied portions of the city and large
tract OF land could be secured upon
which immense facilities could be pro-
vided.
Over 1000 carloads of stock are
shipped out of Pendleton every season
and larger yard facilities and more
convenient yard accommodations are
urgently needed. This location seems
to be the most feasible of any yet
suggested and the East Oregonian
would be glad to see the two systems
consider such a proposition.
1t is admitted by both companies
that larger facilities are needed and
that the growth of the city has sur
rounded both Yards operated at pres
cnt, with residence districts, making
both locations undesirable.
