It hud a population of not less than 16"(i, and In addition to this cuch local mill had a considerable settlement at the mill. The Importance of the city whs ilIno enhunced by the fact that H was the railroad terminus for many years, and tho shipping point Tor all Wallowa county pro duels. Itefore the extension of tho rail road there was a continuous stream of freight teams 'during good weather cuming rroni und go ing to Wallowa county -points. - Klgln then hud ' seven church buildings, seven ir.tloons. several livery burns nnd It wus no uncom mon scene to see till freight ' wa gons parked on Wallowa avenue In almost one continuous lino extend ing from the 'bridge across the ri ver west to Kront street. t , ' The school, a two-story , frame -building lucaled on the present . site, where grades up to, the eighth were taught, that was later replac ed by the present building.

The paved sidewalks are In, all the bus iness and most of the residential sections of town now. .. . . - ' The highway that cxL'nd'-d throukh this section wus made In- j to a gravel highway In 1924. ' The park of Klgiii Is a very good tourist park. Then Is a river front on the east side and excellent . campgrounds for tourists. As tho city Increased In slxe and Importance, the need of more edu ea t i on w as seeu . so the brie k building was constructed In 1 90S and we have a high school as w-H as a grade school. Four teachers are employed! In high school and tight in the grades.
