Be- J i 1 m iioiid una Kccprigm ai 11 j Devoted to the Interests of the Peninsula, the Manufacturing Center of the Northwest VOL. 8 ST. JOHNS, OREGON, FRIDAY, MARCH 8, 1912. NO. 18 A $3,000,000 Plant Plaus have been completed by the Portland Gas and Coke compa ny to begin work in building a gigantic gas manufacturing plant on a strip of land directly south of the Government moorings 011 the west side of the Willamette River. The plant will cost $3,000,000 and be one of the most modern and largest establishments in the Unit ed States. As it is gradually built up it will take the place by degrees of the present plant of the company near the Union Depot, the plans be ing to have the new plant generate all tuc gas used in the city. uuring tins year the company will spend $700,000 in building the nrst unit of the plant a generating station capable of manufacturing 3,000,000 feet of gas per day and in constructing n system of mains along the Litintoil roud to Portland and the first part of an extensive parking system which is to extend over the 40 acres of ground owned by the company and comprising the gas site. Within three years the plant will be complete nud the expenditure will total $3,000,000 I he company has owned the North Portland site for a number of years and has been working a long time 011 the plans of the proposed plant, completing the details only a few days ago. It is proposed, be sides making the plant large enough to meet the needs of Portland for many years, to install facilities for handling large steamship shipments ot oil trout California oil fields, the plans calling for large modern docks on the water front. The present system of hauling the oil on barges irom tuc large storage tanks at Portsmouth will be discontinued nud the steamers will be unloaded nt the gas works instead of nt Ports mouth. 1 he present plant near the depot has a capucity of 5,000,000 feet of gas a day. The new plant when completed will have n capacity of 10,000,000 feet daily. The plant now used in manufacturing bri quettes from the lampblack of the oil will be moved to the new site nud increased incapacity from 50 tons to 100 n day. The machinery at the new plant will be modern in every particular, including the most up to dutc pumps and generators. The pres cut storage tanks in various parts of the city will be maintained ns nt present nnd will be connected with the new plant as rapidly ns possible. The large mains will ex tend down the Liuntou road to con nect with the present high pressure arteries which in turn supply the consumers. The franchise to use the Lintiton road already has been secured and the company has ar ranged with the Ilnrrimnu jieople for the use of the new steel bridge to carry the supply mains to t lie Kust Side. The high pressure mains will pass over the lift span by means of a piping arrangement which works much the same as the slides of a slide trombone, the arrangement making possible the lifting of the bridge nt any time without interference with the gas inaius. In October next it is planned to have the first unit completed and ready for the manufacture of 3,000, 000 feet of gas daily. At that time the old plant will be closed down gradually. Construction work will be coutiutied after the first unit is completed .until the entire plant is installed. The site of the new plant is to be landscaped to conform with the Bennett plans. An extensive sys tem of parks has been arranged, including walks and driveways, so that the site will have an attractive appearance. The Port of Portland has arranged to make an extensive fill on the water front over which the gas company will place modern docks for the handling of the oils. This land-filling work, or a section of it at least, will comprise a part of the first unit and will be com pleted along with subsequent units. The object of the company in making the vast expenditure is two fold. The growing demand for gas has made the present plans too small to cope with the situation, and the company it is said, has beeu bro't face to face with the need of greatly enlarging the generation system. With four blocks of property near the depot well covered with the present plant, it was considered necessary to secure a new location. Another reason is the complaint about the gas plant occupying a site near the center of the city. The two propositions have caused the company to decide on the modern system in a district remote from the residence aud business sections and still within easy reach of the city. The property near the depot will be kept by the company for the present. For Insurance see F, W.Valentine The Primaries Very little interest was taken in the primary election held last Saturday.only 120 voters participate iug. Many had forgotten all about the matter, while others were too indifferent to go to the polls. The list of candidates on the republican ticket was small, while the demo cratic ballot was altogether a blank, necessitating the writing in of nil the names the voter desired to nom inate. Had all the voters iu the city cast a ballot Saturday, scarcely a man in t lie municipalitv would have escaped without a vote for one office or another.

Death of Elmo Waldref Klmo Waldref was instantly killed February 15th nt Cromwell, Minn., by being crushed between two box cars, one of which he was trying to stake into clear on a side track, by holding n short piece of timber against the comers of the two cars when n sudden lurch of the cars caused the timber to slip, forcing Flmo between the cars and crushing his body above the hips iu n terrible mniincr. The body was removed to Duluth and held there until his relatives were noti fied, who ordered its immediate shipment to St. Johns, Oregon. Flmo was the second son of Mr. and Mrs. H. Mt Waldref of this city, aud was born at Moose Lake, Miun., nearly 27 years ago. His brother Fred resides nt Gleudivc, Mont., and Miss Kthel, the only daughter, resides with her parents iu bt. Johns. Klmo Waldref had been cm ployed by the Northern Pacific rail road during the summer on n steam shovel ns cruuesmau nud iu the winter months had been braking on freight trains of the same com patty. The division superintend cut stated that Klmo was one of the most promising young men the company had iu its employ. The floral offerings from the trainmen's orders were muguificentand ntuncr ous, mute testimonials of the cs teem iu whicli tuc young man was held. The above facts were gleaned from the Huriiiun Herald, Baruum, Minn., which devoted almost n col 11 in 11 to this sad death. Oregon to be First Response to the call of the Ore gou iJcvciopmcui League lor a large representation from Oregon, 011 the occasion of choosing the site for its building nt the Panama Pa cific International hxpositiou nt Sail Francisco iu 1915, has been so great that it will probably be necessary for more than one spe cial truiti to carry the delegation. I he day set apart is March 14, nud trains will leave Portland on the afternoon of March 12. Word has been received from such extreme points ns Lakeview, Priueville, Burns, Klamath Falls, Baker and Astoria, that they will be repre sented by delegations. St. Johns will nlso. Kugene is planning to send a banner delegation of fifty or more; this will be the largest out side of Portland. Two hundred members of the Portland Commer cial Club will make the trip. As the most of the delegates will be accompanied by their ladies, the oc casion will be of considerable socinl significance. The fare from Port land will be ?25 for the round trip. Oregou lias been conceded the unusual honor, even over Cali fornia itself, of the first choice of site. The invitation that has beeu extended by the fair officials and the commercial bodies of San Francisco indicates that the entertainment they will provide will be of n most elaborate nature, Nickel "Wedded" Social The Y.

The rhetorical program Friday afternoon was the best that has yet been given. 1 he decorations were both pretty and appropriate and the program itself, entertaining and instructive. The chief features "The Boston Tea Party of 19(2," which was written bv one of the students, nnd "The Mock Trial," were especially instructive to those interested in suiTtngettcs or iu law. But it is not surprising t lint they did so well this time, for with their new name, hrodclphinti, n great deal more was expected than from the old Rhetorical Division No. 2. The school librarians have 110 ticed a change since only 85 per cent. pupils nrc permitted to use the II brnry freely. We hope that the grades of the new quarter will give more the privileges of library pu pils. A great number were out to sec the gome with Pjrk Place High, I'ruiav uigiit. 1 lie teams were well matched, but from the first the James John boys showed better training nnd team work. Hvery member of the team did credit to himself nud to the school. None were surprised when the game closed with the score of 34 to 17 iu favor of James Johns. The James Johns High team played Astoria High Saturday even ing at Astoria. Only the team, coach nud manager took the trip nud tell very little about the game except the score 24 to 18 iu favor of Astoria. But the generally fagged out condition of the whole team speaks louder thnu words. Both the boys' nud the girls teams will play those of Woodburn High next baturday at Woodburn if the boys recover in time, xx x Found Dead in Bed Mabel Newell, who for the past three years had been assisting with the housework at the home of I5d. S. Currier, was found dead iu bed Monday morning. For several days previous she had complained of not feeling well, aud of a pain iu her side, but it was not thought that she was seriously ill. Sunday she visited her mother, Mrs, C. L. Newell, 011 lyler street, and re turned to Mr. Currier's residence apparently feeling iu fair health. Not arising for long after her usual time Monday morning, Mrs. Cur rier made a visit to her room aud found that she had passed to the other tvorld It is believed that the neuralgia iu her side reached ler heart while she slept and stopped its beating. Mabel Newell was aged about 35 years, of a pleas ant and cheerful disposition, indus trious, faithful and obliging, aud ler death was a distinct shock to the Currier family, to whom she had endeared herself by her gentle ways.
