PORTLAND CEMENT.

A bulletin just published by the
geological survey relative to the ce-
ment industry in the United States
during 1908 states:
The total quantity of Portland, nat
ural, and puzzolan cements produced
last year 52,91O,925 barrels, valued
at $44,477659. As compared with
1907 whose production was 52,23O.34
barrels valued at $55,9O3,S51 the
year showed an increase of 1.3 per
cent in quantity and a decrease of 20
per cent in value. The total Port
land cement production was 51,072,-
612 barrels, valued at $43,547,679.
This is an increase in quantity of as
per cent and a decrease in value of
1913 per cent compared with the fig
ures for 1907. Pennsylvania, with
22 producing plants, led with 20,-
393,965 barrels. The average price
per barrel was S5 cents. OF the four
types of Portland cement, divided ac-
cording to the kinds of raw material
used, 40.6 per cent was made from
per cent from limestone and clay or
shale, 55 per cent. from mari and clay
and SO per cent from Stag and lime
stone.
The production of Portland cement
has shown an increase each year. The
natural cement industry, on the other
hand, reached its maximum in 1899,
with an output of 9,S6S,179 barrels
since which year it has shown an al
most continuous decrease. until now
| it has become relatively unimport-
ant factor in the cement situation
The natural cement produced in the
United States in 1908 amounted to
1,6S6,S6 barrels, valued at $S34509
which was a decrease of Al per cent
in quantity and 43 per cent in value
under the preceding year OF puzzo-
Ian cement, made by mixing blast
| furnace Stag and slaked lime, there
was manufactured 151,451 barrels
valued at $95, 5,46S, a heavy decrease
when compared with the production
reported for 1907.
Imports of foreign cement (com-
prising not only Portland but all 9TH
hydraulic cements) amounted to S42,-
121 barrels, with exports of S46,52S
barrels. Shipments to the canal
zone for use in the Panama canal will
heavily increase the exports Of ce-
ment from the United States.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1909-10-06
THE MASS MEETING.

Next Tuesday evening a mass meet
ing will be held for the purpose of
discussing charter amendments and in
itiative measures which may come up
at the city election in December. 1t
is time such a meeting was held.
There is a general sentiment to the
effect that the welfare of the city de-
mands that action be taken towards
securing a gravity water system. Peo-
pie are sick and tired of the present
poor and inadequate supply. They
have been advised to boil your wat
err until they are disguised. They
want water they can drink in safety.
To the East Oregonian it seems
plain that a gravity water system
should be secured at once if bonds
for the same can be floated. The way
TO find out whether or not the bonds
may be sold is to try to sell them. If
we can sell them all will be lovely
and we will secure good water. II we
cannot sell them-well we will have
TO wait until they can be sold. 1t will
be only common sense to have the
water commissioners authorized to go
ahead with plans for new water sys-
TEN and to sell the bonds when the
time comes. Unless such authority is
given the board this winter the matter
will have to go over for at least two
years.
There is also a strong sentiment am
ong local people that the present stat
US Of the liquor business may be
greatly improved. 1t is safe to say
that a majority Of Pendleton people
would greatly prefer a Jew, say a
half dozen, licensed, well regulated
saloons, to the present II or 1S
blind pigs" and innumerable boot
logging" haunts. If we are to have a
LIQUOR business we want to drive some
revenue from it.
Now there is but one way to have
the liquor business legalized again
in Umatilla county. The people Of the
county must be shown rhat If they
vote to legalize saloons the saloons
will be properly conducted. The best
assurance Pendleton can give in this
regard will be to pass charter am
endment limiting the number Of sa-
looms and an ordinance providing for
the regulation Of the liquor business
in case the same should ever be made
legal again. II PendletOn will take
such action as this It viii be a pledge
to the people Of the county that If
they vote wet next year we will handle
the liouor business as it should be
handled.
At the meeting next Tuesday the
business men and property owners OF
the city should be out in body
They should discuss these subjects in
a calm. sensible way and take such
action a. many seem best for the in
terests Of the city.

COURTESY PAYS.

one of the most pleasing things
about the district fair week was the
general spirit of good will which pre-
vailed and the tendency on the part
of everyone to treat everyone else
with courtesy and consideration. All
the fair officials, the men in charge
Of the exhibits, the band men and
all others were uniformly courteous to
the people who visited the fair. Up
town too special pains were taken by
