A PIONEER PASSES
In this section of the state, only those who came to this
valley before the days of the railroad are usually designated
as pioneer. But the word should, and does have a broader
meaning. There are other pioneers here besides those who
trekked across the plains behind the ox cart.
We think of Fred II. Kiddle Sr. The railroad had leen
here many years when he came to the' Grande Ronde from
Jefferson, Iowa, and the country was fairly well settled. But
it remained for Fred and his brother, Ed, to pioneer the
flouring null organization that now exists in this county,
with fine mills at La Grande, Island City, Elgin and Union
and warehouses at Conley, Alicel and Imbler.
They were the founders of this organization, which has
put many millions of dollars in circulation in this county
through its long and honest dealings with the wheat farmers,
and now they are gone leaving the task of management to i
the younger men of the famous Kiddle family. But they i
have left their mark a well rounded, smooth functioning
industry, a credit to the county and state and northwest.
They did their work well, these brothers, and the people
of Eastern Oregon will remember them for many decades.
They were pioneers, in their fashion, just as much as the
early settler, and their axes hewed just as lasting and beius
iicial a mark in the history of this section of the state.
