If THE SUNDAY OREGONIAX, POItTLAyD. MARCH 12. 1911. AVERAGE IS GOOD GROWTH IS STEADY " ' " Buildings in Kenton Are of Per manent Nature. NEW PAVING IS ORDERED Population I Now Ckww to 2000 and More Thon COO Sc!ool t hu rt rt-n Are to He w Kutld Ing Thl Year. Started two year o In the brush on the eouth Side of Columbia boulevard. Kenton has had a phenomenal growth n population, and especially in flrt-cla . i -. 1 ' II L" , a n V, a narlV- poninrM vui,uu.. .. - permanent residents and a recent census hi that It ha more than I" arnool chlMnn. While the tract on which Kenton built belonred to the Ken wood Land Company, yet the building, for general buslneaa purpose erected by Inirestor.' and not hjr the land company. Arnont the building, are the follow In: Hal ley-Bradford building. .0X: Du puy building:. :S.': Kenwood Hotel Block, built by Porter Hroe.. railroad contractor. IWW: Fang building. Cft.OW: Rowley building. : Moving Plctura building, two; Dnvern building. tWM. Plana are belnir prepared Cr a tw story concrete and brick building to be built on Derby street, near the bank butldlnir. for C. W. M'yer. It will have a pressed brick front and the remainder will be of concrete construction. A fra ternal hall will occupy the entire upper floor. Vnder the Inspiration of the Ken ton Push Club, 13 of the principal Btreeta of Kenton are to be paved a. oon aa the work can be done with TVestrumlte asphalt, which Is manufactured In a A plant now bring erected In the Co lumbia -lough district. Is favored for these streets and probably will be used. Derby street la feet and Patton ave nue li feet wide. These wide streets will be narked with wide sidewalks, so that the cost of the pavements will not fall heavily on the property owners. The Hoard of Education recently secured a double block and will build a school house this year so that the S children at Kenton will not need to travel so far to reach a schoolbous. Besides the new manufacturing plants already establish ed and in operation on Columbia slough, other Important industries are eekinr locations near the O.-W. R. N. line. The -hwarschlld Sulzberger Packing Company, of South Portland, it U an nounced, has secured a nve-acre tract ear the I'nlon Meat Company s plant and may build this year. - look for the time when Columbia Slough will be lined to Troutdale with manufacturing establishments." said ft. i Woodward, president of the Kenton Push Club. "There are few places where, the conditions are so favorable for manu facturing concerns. Here is water In abundance and railroad transportation right at the front doors of these con cerns. All the establishment built In this district are doing well. We con stantly besr of other concerns seeking locations In this district. One advan tage of Kenton Is that from the start only first-class buildings were erected, and there will bo no period In the fu ture when the bulldlnirs must be removed to make way for modern structures. Only this class if structures have been per mitted or will be permitted In this dis trict. As the manufacturing concerns are completed and put Into operation here, more people are employed and more business Is done In Kenton. Tha bank which was started less than two years aeo has done good buslnesa from the start. We need a echoolhouse and pavements for our streets, and " are In a fair way to get. The Board of Kdueation will buUd a echoolhouse here this year, and our Club la- pushing a wholesale paving movement that will gle us hard-surface streets."

The Oregon Water Power Company dump-trains sre ruling up the lowlands around the new power plant at the foot of East Uncoln street. These trains run to the bank of the river opposite Ross Island, where the steam shovel Is eating Its way Into the blutf. The fill ing operations are In progress on the north side of the power house, around oil tanks which were recently placed there. . . The power plant will use sawdust and refuse from the sawmill, and will have these oil tnnks as reserve supply of fuel. The plant will consume the saw dust and refuse stuff, which heretofore had been used to fill up the slough with. The embankment Is the third to be made across the slough.

Klickitat County Will Spend Large Part of Tax Money la Terri tory Benefited. Tha north bank of the Columbia RlTer. east of the Cascade Mountains, so long left In an undeveloped con dition because lacking railroad trans portation. Is at last coming; Into It own since the North Bank Railroad has given direct connection with Port land markets. The Klickitat County authorities recognizing these changed conditions, have made an appropriation for road and bridge building In the Sundale dis trict A force of men la completing a permanent bridge across Chapman Creek, and building a permanent county road on a water-grade along Chapman Creek, leading back about five miles Into the Interior and through the midst of a rapidly developing orchard dis trict Trior to this year. Klickitat County ofdclala have given but U"le attention to development of the south ern part of the county, and most of the tax moneys have been spent In the Uoldendale district Since the rail road came, and In view of the early completion of the Celllo Canal, south ern Klickitat County bids fair to be the most thickly populated section. This county Is remarkable for Its 100 miles of frontage along the Columbia River. No other county In Washington or Oregon has so much river frontage, and no other county bas such large milage of a trunk-line railroad. The larger part of the railroad taxes paid by the Spokane, Portland & Seattle Railway, in the state of Washington, goes Into the coffers of Klickitat County. "As these railroad taxes come from the river townships, the men of south ern Kllckltst County will henceforth expect that a large part of thia money shall be spent for the Improvement of the southern portion of the county," said C. I. Hyskell. of the Hunter Land Company, which Is developing a 3000 acre tract of orchard and' vineyard lands. Sales have been made to 12 Portland and Salem men In the last few months, and a number of houses are being built In addition, a grocery store and a achoolhouse are to be Immediately commenced. Superintendent Shepard and a force of men are planting the last of the acreage for the Winter season, and there are now about 3&0 acres of fruit and almond orchards and vine yards. All the vineyards are planted to European varieties of grapes. The future of the North Bank Railroad region looks very bright and we are glad to say that all of this territory Is directly tributary to Portland. This city will enjoy virtually all the business that Is developed In future years from southern Klickitat County." CHINESE GIVE- CONCERT Thousand Persons Attend Benefit for Famine Sufferers.
