SUGGESTION MADE FOR
INDUSTRIES IN COUNTRY

Wanted, a saw mill. planning mill
and box factory, fancy cereal plant,
cannery. cheese factory and a few
other Industrial institutions in Pen
dleton. Umatilla county.
In response to a request from the
O.-W. Il. & N. authorities asking for
a list Of some industries that could
be easily developed In Umatilla coun-
ty, Secretary Cranston has included
the above mentioned after consult
ing with a number of prominent busi-
ness men.
He points out that sawmill and
by-product factories would be con-
tingent upon the building of a rail-
road line tapping the timber belt of
southern Umatilla and northern
Grant county such as the O.-W. r. &
n. company is contemplating at the
present time.
This county being one of the rich
est grain sections in the United States
he thinks that a cereal plant, such
as Is conducted by Albers Bros. Of
Portland. would be a paying institu-
ton. Likewise the great quantities
of fruits and vegetables grown here
would make this a good location for
a canning and preserving plant.
The building up Of the dairy busi-
nessness in the west end of the coun-
ty offers opportunities for creameries
and cheese factories he thinks, while
factories for utilizinp broom corn
castor beans and flax, all of which
can be grown here, should be profit
able, he thinks.

STATEMENT REGARDING
MONROE DOCTRINE.
Holds That Issue Is Still Vital Prin-
ciple Of the Foreign Policy Of the
United States-Dr. Martinez Alleg-
ed to Have said Doctrine Was a
Dead Issue.

WASHINGTON. Dec. 22-Mem-
bers of the diplomatic corps, espe-
cially representatives from the South
terested in a report reaching Wash
ington that ex-President Roosevelt
and DR.. Marshall Martinez, at one
time Chilean minister TO the United
States, clashed in Santiago de Chile OIL
account of divergent views on the
Monroe doctrine. The Chilean is re-
ported to have dissented strongly
from the Roosevelt view that the
much discussed doctrine Is still a
vital issue.
The reported debate attracted un-
usual interest here because both OF
the prepared speeches were reviewed
before delivery by the Chilean for
eign office. DR.. Martinez. it was
said at the Chilean legation. was
elected because of his strong friend
ship for the United States as the
spokesman of the Chilean govern
ment at the state reception given the
American visitor recently at the Uni
versity of Santiago.
In his address at the Roosevelt re-
ception; DR.. Martinez characterized
the Monroe doctrine as dead issue
and arguing that the conditions which
gave rise to its PRONUNCIATION by
President Monroe IN 1898 have al.
most entirely disappeared.
This statement Is said to have
aroused the ire Of Colonel Roosevelt
who replied with some heat. hol/ins
that the Monroe doctrine still was 6
vital principle Of the foreign polio,
OF the United States. He is said. too
! to have suggested to the Chilean
diplomatist incidentally that 1t wa.
ill-advised on such an occasion to in
augurate q controversy.

BUT FEW RABBITS KILLED AT HOLMAN

Though two drives instead of one
were held at Holdman yesterday,
comparatively few rabbits were killed,
the force of drivers being too small
to do effective work. Probably less
than $50 were slain in the two drives.
The same corral used in the drive
week ago Friday was used but one
of the wings had been taken up and
run out in another direction and the
driving was done from the north. In
the first drive, only a very few of
the little pests were killed. On ac-
count of the scramble for the dead
bodies, a count was out of the ques-
tion but Secretary Cranston of the
Commercial association, who was
present, estimates the number at 25.
