' An enlargement of the Portland flour mills from 2400 to 4600 barrels a day has been announced by President Wil cox, as a result, it ia said, of a prom ise of E. H. Harriman that the service of the Portland & Asiatic Steamship Company would be increased to meet the demands which an enlargement would require to provide necessary shipping- facilities. If the mills are en larged , as contemplated, their, output alone, will-be sufficient to provide a 6,000 ton cargo every 11 days. The mills are already the largest on the Pacific coast andafter the contemplated enlargement has been made will possess an output the equal of any other two mills on the coast. The Portland and Asiatic Steam ahip Company, will not wait, it is said, for new ships to be built for the orien tal trade, but has already arranged for the big steamship Algoa to go on the run. The ship Is now In the orient, but will arrive January 1. : . 1 DUES TOO HEAVY Pawtucket, R. I., Dec. 11.

Peaslee, of' Austin i county, is convinced that Clarkston, his home town, is to become the metrop " oils of the Snake river valley. The town 5 lies across the river from Lewlston, j and Mr. Peaslee believes it Is soon to J supersede the Idaho town as the rail- road center for Clearwater operations. He says: '.'' "There is no question but that the O. ' R. & N. is coming up the Snake from Ripanla to Lewlston. In time the O. I R & N.' must build from Huntington to Lewlston In order to get the grade j that must be had to solve the trans- j portatlon problem. That road has a right of way that extends on the Wash- J ingtort side if the Snake seven miles ' above Clarkston. f "Lewlston, a town , of which I am rather proud, Is located at a'dlsadvan- I tags for railroad development, .Th6" land the Northern Pacific now occupies for terminals and' switch yards has been under water during floods, and ,, moreover there Is not enough available land to give the railroad the yard room that is required. Across the river at Clarkston the land lies high enough to save it from flood damage, amd more over It Is perfectly level. ' -( "I am am convinced that railroads In s the Snake river and Clearwater coun- fj tries will make Clarkston rather than r. Lewlston their .headquarters. "Two years ago Clarkston was a sags j brush prairie. Today it has a popu lation of 2,500 and is growing rapidly, f With another" railroad and the North- ern Paciflc entering ipiarkston we are certain to have a big city In time," LOST HIS DIAMONDS.
