plaint-Commercia Club VIII Meet
10 Take Action.

That the people of oregon and .es-
pecially the eastern part of the state,
will no longer put up with poor train
service and not make complaint is
evidenced by the complaints received
daily at the office Of the state rail-
road commission. And that the COM
mission intends to take steps toward
securing better service on the branch
as we'll as the main lines is evidenced
by the fact that the commission is
now making a personal investigation
of conditions On the branches in
eastern Oregon. In making this in
vestigation they are being assisted by
a skilled engineer who is no less a
person than ]. P. Newell, who served
in the capacity of engineer for the
o. R. & N. for many years.
II is understood that the party went
over the Condor branch yesterday
and that the Heppner branch is to be
visited today. The members of the
commission and the engineer will
probably arrive in Pendleton tonight
or tomorrow morning.
Judge Lowell Complains.

ceived by the railroad commission Of
the poor service rendered was from

Mrs. Chester Arnold and Mrs.
Dunlap, nieces of w. G.. Brust
came over Saturday morning from
the county seat and visited relatives
here until Sunday evening. Their
husbands joined them here Sunday
morning and accompanied them
home on the evening train.
In the presence of the family and
few friends at 7 A. M. on Thurs
day, at the home of the brides
mother, in the north end of town
Mr.. George F. Fleming, of Forest,
and Miss Jennie F. Ellis, of Cotton
wood, were united in holy matri-
mony, Rev. Geo. A. Pease officiat-
ing. They will reside on their
homestead near Forest.
Mr.. and Mrs. H. H. Nuxoll
went to Grangeville last Friday
evening and legally adopted the
two weeks old baby son of D. w.
Tierney, whose wife died here last
week The little fellow has fallen
into exceptionally good hands and,
we understand, will be treated ex-
actly the same as Mr.. Nuxoll' S own
children.
John Meyer, who recently pur-
chased one-third interest in the
local -four mill, is hard at work
putting the mill in good shape and
will not start it up again until every
thing is in first class condition.
Mr.. Meyer is a brother-in-la of
M. F. Fuchs and is a graduate
miller from Germany. Before COM
ing here he worked for about nine
in the mill at Genesee and
is thoroughly conversant with the
different grades of wheat grown in
this country and understands how
to handle them to obtain the best
results. We anticipate that in
few months he will be making flour
here equal to the best grades of the
Spokane or Lewiston product.

Idaho Wheat Shows Up We'll.

While samples of wheat from
Idaho exhibited at the National
Corn Exposition in Omaha last
December, did not get into the
prize winning classes, they did
make showing which gives as
surance that they will win at the
1909 Exposition when the CLASH
hcatlons are re-adjusted as prom
lsed by the management of the
big show. Idaho oats scored
high in competition with oats of
the world and the scores given
wheat after milling test are
high.
Samples of wheat grown by L.
M. Birch, of Roswell, ]. w. Hart
man and A. w. Andrew, of Par
ma, Fitzpatrick & Hurt and Edgar
Dllley, of Roswell, scored from
90 to rs points out of a possible
LOO, against wheats adapted to
making light bread flour from
Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas,
South Dakota, North Dakota,
Wisconsin and Illinois.
In scoring this wheat the
judges had it tested in Mime
apolis laboratories, then milled
and baked under the direction of
one of the largest milling com
panies of the United States.
Points were awarded as follows:
yield of flour 20 points, texture
and color of loaf Is points, size
of loaf 80 points, absorption 10
points, soundness and flavor Is
points, percent and quality of
gluten 10 points.
With only the five samples en-
tered from Idaho, it can scarcely
be said the wheats of this state
were well represented, and yet
those sent in made creditable
showing when it was considered
the highest score was 80 and
was awarded to a sample from
Nebraska. It was the first year
for small grains to receive recog-
milton at big agricultural show
but their Importance is to be en-
phasized at the 1909 Exposition.

KOOSkla Have Paper Mill
Plans Now Under Way May Mean
Monster Industry There.

The announcement of plans for
the construction of a pulp and
paper mill at Kooskia carry a
wider significance than at first
believed, for it is practically as
sured that the mill will call for
an investment of 81, 100000 and
ultimately a sum much larger.
The investors are Chicago and
Michigan capitalists who are in
terested in the large Independent
paper and pulp mill at Newaygo,
Mich. E. G. Day and C. A. Day,
of Chicago, and w. J. Bell, of
Newaygo, Mich, left here this
week for Chicago, where they
will make a report of the plans
to the capitalists who will invest
millions in the enterprise.
The elder Day is the treasurer
of Marshall Field & Co., the bus
mess founded by the Chicago
merchant prince, who died three
years ago. The capitalists have
been quietly working on plans
for several months, and have sue
ceeded in acquiring property
which will be used as a mill site,
and surveys recently completed
provide for a dam across the
Middle Fork of the Clearwater
river, where 10000 horsepower
will be developed. In connection
with the pulp and paper mill,
vast cement beds acquired by the
company will be developed, and
a modern cement plant of large
capacity will be built. The Gem
ent beds lie along the middle of
the river Is miles from Kooskia,
and tests have demonstrated the
value of the deposit. The Gem
ent will be used in dam and fac
tory construction, while brick
yard will be built in order to pro-
vide additional building material.
AS soon as the details Of a real
estate transfer can be completed
work will begin on the dam, and
it is believed that the factory
will be completed by January,
1911 at the latest. The pulp fac
tory will be strictly modern
mill, operated by electricity fur
nished from the water power
harnessed by the dam. Spruce
and white fir timber will be used
in the manufacture of wood pulp,
which will be converted into pa
per in the factory. Much of the
TIMBER. will be purchased from
the forestry bureau, as millions
of feet can be secured in the val
ley and floated down the river to
the mill ponds.
Much timber is available in the
vicinity of Kooskia,
and it is believed that the mill
will eventually be the largest in
dustry in the state of Idaho if
plans now partly consummated
are carried out.
The pulp and paper mill will
provide a pay roll of 300 men,
while the cement plant will give
to half as many. The
cement plant will be a large one,
but it will suffer in comparison
with the pulp project. Teller.

END or EvENTFUL CAREER.
Tnlouc Character PASSES Away In
Death OF Payne Clcavcs.


Spokane. Wash, March 90
When the clods of earth fell upon
the coffin containing the remains Of
Payne t. Cleaves In the little ceme-
terry at Lyle, Wash, where pioneers
of Klickitat county we're gathered
to pay the final tribute of love and
friendship, there came to q close the
eventrul career of an unique char
ncter, who played Mis- part In STIR
ring incident on the high seas more
than half century ago.
Cleaves, better known M Jack,
was native of Cumberland county,
Maine, born at North Yarmouth In
1882, OF Englih stock who came
over on the Mayflower In 1920.
While apprenticed az tanner, he
sailed before the mast and was tak-
en- prisoner by the Spanish Armada,
locked In Moro Castle and finally lib
Grated by President Fillmore In 1854
when It was discovered that mer-
chantman had been seized, Serious
international complications were
threatened at the time and the inci-
dent became part OF American his
tory,
Though proud OF his ancestry, he
rarely spoke OF his family, and his
only known relative was the late
General A. n CorlIss, retired, who
answered the last roll call at Dem
YER, Coll IN October 1908 Clcaves
served during the civil war and be-
came famous as an army cook, He
migrated TO lklickitat county In
1879. and established the first hotel
In that part OF Washington, where
he was friend to the early settlers
and advised them In many matters,
He was the most widely read man In
the country.
| While HIS generosity and improvt'
dence left him comparatively penni-
less at death his acquaintances OF the
early days did not doscrt him In tho
hour OF need They provided nurses
and gave him every care during his
brief sickness, and he crossed the
Great Divide with q smile on his
| lips The burial service was simple.
In compliance with the last wishes OF
the sturdy pioneer A pine sapllng
was planted at the head OF the
mound which marks the resting
place Of "Old Jack" Cleaves
