PULP INDUSTRY FEASABLE The making of pulp from for psttrees is a corapar.i'ively new industry, but is a p .ing one. In 1880 there wee 742 paper and wood oalubli anents in the United Slates with an aggregate capital of $48,139,652 that gave employment that year to an ave rage of 25,631 wage earners to whom were paid as wages $8,- 970,133. They paid for material usd $34,862,132, aud turned out products to the value of $57,866. 860 in 0880. Since 1897 under the Dingley act there has beeu a tariff of one twelvth of one cent a pound on pulp wood for paper making im ported into the United States yet spite of the tariff the American factories have not supplied the demand, aud for the 8 months ending with August 1904 there were 94,316 tons of wood pulp imported into the United States valued at the ports from which exported at $2,434,509 of this pulp 5,968 to:i s were imported from Germany valued there at $271,417 or $45.48 a ton; 20,846 tons came from other European countries valuod there at $867, 042 aud 67,502 tons from Biitish North America valued at $1,608.. 047. Notwithstanding the importa tions thepulp industry grew aud iu' 1900 there were 763 paper aud wood pulp establishment iu tho United States operating on a capital of $167,507,713 and ! that year gave employment to 49,646 wage earners to whom they paid as wages $20,746,426 1 an average of $419.90. There' was paid out in 1900 by thepulp' factories $70,530,236 for mate- 1 rial aud a product, turned out1 valued at $127,320,162. j The above figures show that the wood pulp industry in the' United States increased its capi- l tal in twentyyeare by $119,366, 061 the number of its employees' by 24,015, paid out $21,876,293 more for wages in 1900 than in J 880, expended for material $36,- 708.104 more in law man in l8S() lurneJ out 169,869,- ,302 more product than twenty M bef0M from whicn- it ie , . . . apparent mat mailing puip irom logs to be used in paper making is a growing and thrifty busi uess The Willamette Palp and Paper Company at Oregon City iu this state has been operating for a number of years and ' we learn that this year, 1904, it has expended $500,000 iu improve ments, increased its saw mills to a capacity of 160,000 .per day ana increased its grinders from 19 to 60. The purpose1 of (this article i to suggest to the people of Union County the feasibility of estab lishing a pulp factory some where within "our border, we certainly have- the power, now unused, in our river and nu- merous creeks, that flow through groves of colten wood and . be tween hills and mountain slopes that aro oovered with forests,- The Observer believes that a push' similar to the one that brought the sugar factory' here will result in the coming of a pulp faetoiy that' will give ' con stant' employment to four or' five hundred wage earners and distribute among our1 people hundreds of thousands of dollars annually for material. There are some owners" of horses in this vicinity wlioTare certainly devoid of all kindly feeling or self respect: OecasiOn- aly we see horses drawing heavy loads while so lame that" the are hardly' in proper condition to even walk let alone pall any part of a load.' A driver who would work a' horse which is' evidently in pain is but' little better than a brute, and the humane officers should take the mutter up and see that the horse is plaoed in better company.
