Items of Interest Found in
Northwest Exchanges.
Historical Records A'acue on First
Industry in Oregon.
PROOF as to whether the first Ore
gon industry located' within the
present boundaries of the state was
a sawmill or gristmill is not con
tained in historical records, asserts
The Dalles Chronicle.
There are many unconfirmed re
ports of early industrial development
but the first operation of which def
inite knowledge is obtained is that
of a gristmill just west of Donald
on the road to Champoeg. History
records that this mill started in 1825
and that shortly afterwards the Yale
gristmill opened three miles west
of Forest Grove.
'Claims have been made that a saw
mill operation waB started at Ore
gon City in 1822 and the Oregon His
torical society is satisfied that a
mill really was located there prior to
1840, although no positive records
have been preserved of such an in
dustry. The first confirmed know
ledge of a sawmill is that of an in
dustry which was opened at North
Salem in 1842 by the Methodist mis
sion. However, in the old Oregon coun
try, before its division into states,
there was a mill operated from 1826
to 1828 by John McLoughlin. This
mill was located six miles east of
Vancouver on the Columbia river and
this mill produced one of the very
first Oregon products, "Oregon Pine"
lumber, sold in the Hawaiian islands.
Peoria Hardwood Mill Busy.
The Peoria hardwood sawmill is
one of the busiest places in Linn
county, says the Harrisburg corres
pondent of the Albany Herald. This
mill is located on the Willamette
river a short distance north of
Harrisburg. Charles Ligget, the pro
prietor, was at one time a farmer in
the Plainview community. He Was
associated with him in the industry
the Eugene handle factory. At pres
ent he is installing new machinery
and the mill is not running for a few
days. The output of the mill, is
shipped as the local demand is small.
ami employes have several new
cottages under construction. The
mill promises to become one of the
leading enterprises of the section."
Late Snows Handicap Plant.
The late snows have handicapped
the Oregon Wood AV'orking company
factory in West Salem, curtailing
its raw material. The rnmnan
has been getting its slab wood
from Falls City, fhere there is
no lath mill and the mill waste ex
actly fills the bill for the handle fac
tory. The heavy snows shut off the
Falls City supply. With the reopen
ing of the Falis City mill, says the
fiilem Statesman, the company hopes
to catch up on the many carload or
ders that are held up. The company
is making an enormous order of
spools for both adding machine and
for regular wrapping-paper rolls for
the Salem paper mill. An increasing
number of wood novelties has been
added to the occasional line.
3Vew State Park Advocated.
The creation of a state park on the
ground at present operated by Oregon
City as an auto camp site in Hawley
park, is the proposal made by M. D.
Latourette, a member of "the park
committee, which has the adminis
tration of the grounds in hand. The
state, Mr. Latourette points out, is
taking control of a number of parks
throughout Oregon with the view to
operating them during the entire
year. Hawley park, with its 50 to 60
acres, would make an ideal location,
he says, and it is probable that the
matter will be presented to the next
session of the state legislature, says
the Oregon City Enterprise.
Goats' Death to Thistles.
Hub Bryant of Albany. Or., tells
the Herald of that city that goats
have solved the problem of keeping
thistles from going to seed. Mr. Bry.-
ant claims the goats do not exact;,
lelish the thistles until the balls be
gin to form? for the bloom. Then they
will eat t.ut c' '.he top and destroy
the bloJin. Mi. jJryant has followed
this practice for some jears on his
ship continued and Mr. Hansen re
cently received a letter from Amund
sen asking his friend to visit him in
Seattle. Mr. Hansen has gone to the
sound city and will renew old ac
quaintance with the explorer.
Burglars lit Tacoma Clever.
Burglars in Tacoma are adding
cleverness to their daring, says the
News-Tribune. Monday the police
received a report of a robbery from
L. W. Johnson at 708 South K street.
While their home is being remodeled
Mr. sid Mrs. Johnson and 16-year-old
daughter have been sleeping out
doors in a tent. Early in the morn
ing the intruders entered the tent
and skilfully extracted a purse from
the bed occ.nnied bv the adults and
also discovered the hiding place of'
Mrs. Johnson's wrist watch and
fountain pen in her shoe.
Husband Still on Roof.
Anent the little tembler felt here
the other day the Vancouver, Wash.,
Columbian has this little item: "Mrs. .
Lillian Davis, living on Thirty-ran' h j
street, not being used to earthquakes
thought for the moment she was to
be minus a husband. Mr. Davis was
on the roof making repairs when the
quake occurred and Mrs. Davis know
ing this, thought the earth treinoi
was caused oy her husband falling to
the ground. An investigation, how
ever, disclosed that Mr. Davis was
still on the ro"f safe and sound.'
' Business Better in Klamath.
Jack Slater, owner of the Lake
side Lumber company, tells the
Klamath Record building operations
in Klamath Falls are bound for a big
increase. Business has so picked up
in the past few weeks that the work
ing crew has been doubled.
BUCHTEL REGflLL- IS HIT
LABOR INDORSES PtBLIC
SERVICE COMMISSIONER.
Belief Expressed Candidate Prom
ising Reduction in Fare Should
' Investigate Carefully.
Organized labor is in hearty accord
with the recall law, but believes its
use against Fred G. Buchtel is un
wise, according to a declaration is
sued yesterday by W. E. Kimsey, sec
retary of the central labor council.
Mr. Kimsey said labor had indorsed
Mr. Buchtel to succeed himself, hav
ing faith in his honesty of purpose
and his ability impartially to consider
the important matters referred to the
public service commission for' deci
sion. "The voters of this district will be
called upon in the recall - election
Friday to say whether they desire
that Fred G. Buchtel be continued on
the Job as public service commis
sioner or be replaced by some indi
vidual who in his campaign pledges
himself to reduce street car fares to
5 or 6 cents," said Mr. Kimsey in his
communication.
"The central labor council has given
this matter considerable thought.
The people it represents are probably
as vitally interested as are any other
group or class of people.
"If the Portland Railway, Light
and Power company is receiving more
than a reasonable return on its in
vestment then rates should be revised
but the company should not be lim
ited to 5 cents, 6 cents or even 7
cents, if this does not allow a reason
able wage and a reasonable return on
the investment, and we are firmly
convinced that the candidate who
piedges himself to bring about a re
daction of fares to 5 cents without
a thorough investigation of the mer
its of the matter is neither honest
with himself, his constituents or the
public service commission."
SPOKANE CARFARE CUT
7 -Cent Cash Fares to Be Put Into
Effect June I .
OLYMPIA, Wash., May 17. (Spe
cial.) Spokane street-car fares will
be reduced from 8 cents cash fare to
7 cents cash fare and 6 cents ticket
fare, beginning June 1, under an ap
plication made by the Spokane City
Railways company to the department
of public works today. The Wash
ington AVater Power company, will
make the same reduction on its lines,
officials of the department stated
after a long-distance conversation
with Officials in Spokane.
The traction companies in Spokane
are to be consolidated July 1, as a
result of the recent election, which
authorized a new franchise with the
lower fare. The companies, however,
do not wish to wait until July 1 to
make the fare reductions.
Motor Busses on Kails Planned.
It is expected that in the near fu
ture additional train service will be
afforded between this city and Sea
side by the Spokane, Portland &
Seattle railway, says the Astoria Bud
get. This company, as an experiment
on short-haul runs, has purchased a
Mack truck equipped to run on stand-ard-guage
tracks, the first of its
type in the northwest, which will
probably be ready for use this sum
mer. The truck will accommodate
35 passengers. It will have a bag
gage compartment with drop seats
that can be used for passengers if
needed.
" Coyote Fighters Increased.
. OLYMPIA, Wash., May 17. (Spe
cial.) Increase of the hunter force
from four to seven men and estab
lishment of heavy trap lines will be
the method adopted in Spokane

Bend Credit Requests Fewer.
BEND, Or.. May 16. (Special.)

an extension of the passenger and ex
press run of the Kay-Bee Stage com
pany between Elma and Centralia,
was granted in superior court today
upon application of the Northern Pa

public necessity for transportation,
and that the stage service will deprive
the railroads of revenues to maintain
their service. . The extension granted
by the department authorizes the
