The Vale Trading Company is not
only one Of two of the greatest mer-
camille forces in the town whose name
it bears, but it is in the very forefront
of the largest stores in Malheur coun-

The company was organized as re-
Gently as July 3, 1906, a fact which
makes its magnificent success all the
more remarkable.
But the builders of this big business
insist that to the trading public be-
longs almost the entire credit for its
splendid progress and achievements,
not to the management. THE people
of this great section wanted good
goods, lots of them and square deal.
We have given them these things. We
owed it to them and to ourselves to
do this. We have done only our plain
duty by the people. They evidently

facts in the stirring career Of one
of the states greatest builders-J. L.

AS a boy he divided his time be-
tween 'choring" on a farm and wrest-
ling with the Three RS" in a crude
log schoolhouse.

Those acquainted with Vale and

day for for 81 years he has been of
his section an inseperable part, one
of the chief makers of Vale, the man
to whom the town is largely indebted
for the building of the Hotel Drexel,

of the First Bank of Vale and its vice
president from its founding, one of the
principal promoters OF Wales tele-

terested to this day. He is president
also of the Vale Improvement Co.

extension of the railroad to this point,
the establishment of Vale as the per-
manent county seat, the founding Of
the First Bank of Vale whose de-
posits crowd the half million mark,
an institution OF which he has been
president since its birth, and the
building of the Hotel Drexel, $780,
900 hostelry, is another monument to
his progressive spirit.
Way back in 1868 when all this sec
ton was a stronghold of savagery,
ground of the Piute Indians, ]. L. Cole
typical frOntiersman, came to brave
the perils and privations in these
parts.
The allurements of the old FL Do
radO mining camp, near the present
Malheur city, then Oregon'S greatest
gold producer, attracted him hither.
For four years he followed the for
tunes of the camp. Meanwhile he
had measured the possibilities of the
Willow River valley for home-mak-
ing, and Notwithstanding that the
country was then as when it came
fresh from the hand of God, was
without a settler who had brought a
wife to share his isolated lot, Mr..
Cole took up homestead and with
his heroic sOulmate began to battle
for a fortune and to smooth the way
for those that were to follow.
At that distant day there was NO
settlement on the Malheur river, Vale
bOasted only a single cabin, there was
net another family besides within a
removal of the Indians to the reserva-
ton near Beulah had not BEEN signed
and Malheur county was not created
for 20 years afterward. True William
Morfitt, Archibald w. Turner and a
few other hardy pioneers were scat
tered far and wide over this vast, vir-
gin domain, but social intercourse was

Vale and Malheur county as they are
their own business interests.

AN INLOOk AT JOHN s. EDWARDS

Primitive Pioneer, President of the
First National Bank, and Foremost
Citizen.
AS those who are looking for homes
and investment are quite as much In
terested in this sections resources in
men as they are in its material re-
sources, and especially in the men
who have and are shaping its destiny.
We will patch together a few facts
which will hint the story of the life
and achievements Of John 8. Edwards.
Within two years Of forty years ago
John S Edwards first set foot on the
site of Vale. One lone log cabin was
the one architectural evidence of
civilization that was then here and
there was no house west of the pres
ent town of Vale on the Malheur river
this side Of Fort Harvey, 120 miles
distant, At this time there were not
over five families between here and
the mouth of the Malheur river.
Shortly after his arrival he en-
barked in the business of raising cattle
and horses, having of the latter at
one time as many as 1000. On ever en-
larging and prospecting lines he fol-
lowed this industry until his recent
retirement from the business.
Mr.. Edwards confidence in NAL
heur County dirt is limited in the
fact that he has invested in about
1000 acres of it. He has a fence
stock ranch of 240 acres three miles
north of Vale, a 40 acre improved
another 240 acre tract near his old
home place, and $40 acres about 80
miles northwest of Vale.
Next to Malheur county land, AL
berta, (Canada), land looked good to
him and accordingly he possessed him
self of $50 Of It's choicest acreage.
Not he the man to put all his eggs in
one basket. His motto is to distribute
his eggs, but to everlastingly keep an
=. eye on each egg. He has large inter-
ests in the mines at Conucopia, and
, also in the Vale-Malheur oil fields.
, The National Oil & Gas Co., of Vale
was called into being largely through
t the influence of a few men of his pro-

reVels in a we'll earned rest in the
winter time.
So much for the glimpse of the
past of j. L. Cole, a man who has u
years of hard and most successful
work to his credit, a man who has
thought young so long that he and the
almanac have parted company, a town
making man who looms large on the
horizon, a man whose works will
surely remain a splendid living record
when he has crossed the bar"
The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1909-10-16

nearly as impracticable as with the
Inhabitants of Mars.
Yet the Coles were not without their
diversions. The Piute Indians furn-
ished it, sometimes, to a hair-lifting
extent. Although there were not over
1000 whites in all the region now en-
braced in Malheur county the Piutes
became SO enraged at the immaginary
encroachments on their rights by the
pale faces that they went on the war
path, killed a settder on Bully Creek,
vastly added to their assets with other
peoples horses and cattle, and COM
mitted other depredations which made
Uncle Sam sit up an take notice Ac-
cordingly, General Miles, then colonel
or captain, and General Green, then Of
less rank, came with their boys In
blue, on the gallop, to quel the dis
turbance. Their bravery and bullets
soon solved the problem by greatly
depicting the population of the red
skins, and scattering the survivors to
the four winds, since which time In
dams hereabouts have been only a
memory.
For two weeks during this campaign
General Miles shared the hospitality
of Mr.. Coles home, and cherished is
the remembrance the latter has of
this famous warrior. A close personal
acquaintance Mr.. Cole had, too, with
the late General Green, a man beloved
by all the old pioneers of Idaho and
Oregon whose good fortune it was to
know him.
Mr.. Cole first demonstrated the
great fruit growing possibilities OF
Malheur county by planting the first
orchard within it's borders. And he
established also the first bee yard in
the county.
By years of hard and honest effort
Mr.. Cole acquired a thousand acres
all of which he fenced, much of which
he titled, and no little of which he
watered by his own irrigation system
Some 1900 head of cattle were
owned by Mr.. Cole and grazed on thi:
ranch for many years, and some 20(
head of horses were likewise among
his possessions.
In 1902 Mr. Cole disposed of hi
ranch to his son, Emery Cole, and re
| moved to Vale And Notwithstanding
. his advancing age he pinned for the life
of a greater activity than the ranch Of
: fered, and in Vale he found it. H,
