UPPER RIVER
BOATS ASSURED
FLEET WILL SOON
BE IN OPERATION
Bids Asked for Construction of Two
First Glass Steamers-Win Operate
From Cello 10 Lewiston on the
Snake and Priest Rapids on the
Columbia.

A movement to establish a strong
lumbia river reached stage where
success is positively certain, and
within the next three or four months
fleet Of first class boats will be In
operation in connection with the Ce-
lilo portage road and the lower river
steamer ]. N. Teal. Bids have been
asked for the construction of two
steamers, and their boilers have been
ordered from the makers.
The two new boats will operate
from Cello to Lewiston. on the Snake
river, and to Priest Rapids on the
Columbia. With the steamer Relief
already on the upper river, this will
make three boats at work on the up
river trade.
Dimensions OF the new boats will
be: Length, $50 feet; beam, S2 feet.
Their lines will be adapted to the
conditions of the river. and the great
est care will be taken TO get boats
well suited to the traffic. They will
each have u carrying capacity of ESQ
tons of wheat The boats will be
strongly bulkheaded, and practically
unsuitable, and will be equipped with
very powerful engines.
In short, the aim of the Open River
association is to produce two steam
ers that will be ideal for the naviga-
tion OF the upper Columbia river and
the Snake river, where lightdraft
power and carrying capacity are es,
pecially essential.
With the completion OF this long
and continuous line OF important
transportation interests on the rivers
the location of the superlntendent's
office win probably be changed to
The Dalles. to enable that official to
handle the business from a point at
the center OF activities.
Cello will be a busy place for the
next six months. The government en-
gineers are about TO let contracts for
new construction work on the Cello
canal. the contractors on the old work
are completing that job. the two new
steamers are TO be built at that point,
and the freight traffic over the port
age road win during the movement
of the crop add to the life and hustle
OF the place. The steamer Relief win
serve the fall trade between Cello
and Arlington this year. assisting ma
terialiy in the crop movement.

THE PIONEER STORE

As it's name implies, the Pioneer
Store was the first business house
in Beach. 1t was established in
the spring of 1903 and occupied a
building l2xl4 which was also
used as a postoffice. This answered
the purpose until July, 1906, when
the store was remodeled and en-
larged, the proprietors putting up
a 46x76 combination store and no.
tel building. This was big inn
provement, but the business of the
firm has been SO large that the
proprietors are again considering
seriously Of building a new build
ing separate from the hotel for ex-
clusively store purposes. N. A.
Heath and 7. L. Smith are the
members of the firm styled, Heath
& Co., the latter having the ac-
tive management of the business.
Mr.. Smith was one of the very first
that came to Beach. He filed on
a homestead just north of town,
which he sold later to Len Stock
we'll. Mr.. Smith has always been
booster for Beach from the time
he landed here and will continue
to do so as long as he and Beach
are on the map. He was elected as
one of the first town trustees,
made president of the board, and
was reelected. He, as we'll as the
other dads" has always had the
towns welfare at heart and has
done everything possible in his Off
ial capacity to make Beach a lar
ger and better town. Mr.. Smith
was formerly an N. P. passenger
conductor.

MACHINE AND REPAIR SHOP

MACHINE AND REPAIR SHOP
!. Last May A. E. HASTEN came
to Beach and established the Beach
Machine & Repair Shop. an enter
prise that was wanted here badly
ever since the first pillow engine
was shipped in. With the large
number Of pillow and threshing out
fits in the valley this industry is
an absolute necessity and is greatly
appreciated by the owners of these
outfits especially. as we'll as those
that have smaller machine work
to be done. Mr.. Ksstien makes
speciality of engine and boiler work
and is an expert workman, having
followed this line of work for %
years. He ran q similar shop at
Bunker Hill. ILL.,, for II years and
for two and half years before
coming to Beach was superinten-
dent of the Colean Mfg. Co., at
Peoria, ILL.,, one of the largest
threshing machine manufacturers
in, the country. Mr.. HASTEN built
the first engine for this company
seven years ago. AS we'll as en-
CINE work he does all kinds of re-
pairing, blacksmithing, brazing,
welding, etc. At present his shop
is inadequate for the amount of
work that he is turning out, and
in the spring he expects to enlarge
and put in new machinery and
power. At present he employees
from two to four men but expects
to increase this force to about ten
next season-which he is compel
led to do. Mr.. HASTEN is a mar.
ried man with a family and he has
made the Valley his permanent
home.

demonstrated the fact that he
thoroughly understands the BUSH
ness. He has coy little gallery
in one of the Kellogg buildings,
and the people Of Beach are to be
congratulated upon having in our
midst one who is so abundantly
equipped to meet every demand in
the photograph line. Itwas through
Mr.. McKibbin that we were able
to get SO many fine views Of the
town and country.
