Sem Lew, Baker Pioneer, Dead.
Lying on a lounge and dressed at
liLs home, 1724 Center street, a neigh
bor, Thomas J. Temple, found Sam
uel Lew dead. The deceased had been
in poor health for several years.
Mr. Lew was a native of Clark's
Mill, Canada, born May 5, 1839, and
'n 1873 came to Baker with his wife,
lately deceased, to reside. He was
by trade a carpenter and for many
years was one of the town's principal
buildiiif contractors. He later en
gaged in the furniture business and
at one time he was very well to do
financially. Later, reverses came and
he tried mining with poor success.
His relatives in this country are a
granddaughter, Enid Lew, of Thermo,
California, four nephews, George,
John, Frank and Albert Lew of this
city and vicinity, and a niece, Mrs. J.
Kelly of Powder River valley.
Large Purchase ot Timber.
Baker, May 2. Manager Frank
Gardinier of the 'Baker White Pine
Lumber company yesterday reported
the purchase by .his company from the
Wallowa Timber company of approx
imately 20,000 acres of timber land in
Bj;ker and Grant counties in the vicin
ity of Whitney. This purchase will
probably mean the erection of another
large mill here, according to Mr. Gar
dinier, if certain concessions in the
way of vacating certain streets and
alleys for switches, etc., can be se
cured. The sum involved in the deal
was not mentioned.
The company is negotiating for an
other large body of pine, says Mr.
Gardinier, that may mean the location
of a mill at Durkee, if the company
cannot secure the concessions desired
in Baker.
