here, and the Masons and Odd Fel
lows each own their buildings. The

as meeting places by the lodges and

ness men.
Henrietta Mills.
The Henrietta Mills are anions the
most important business Institutions
In Echo. The plant cost In the neigh
borhood of $30,000 and has a capaci
ty of 150 barrels of flour a day. The
mills are run on full time a creator
part of the season, and it Is estimated
that they reduce 50,000 bushels of
wheat annually to flour. While a
large amount of wheat is purchased
from local producers a large amount
is shipped in from the outside. The
ways of commerce are such that
wheat is imported to and ex
ported from this place. Mr. J. H.
Koontz, the well known pioneer of
Umatilla county is the owner of these
mills.. His flour is known for Its good
quality throughout the country. Ad
joining his mill are two large ware
houses, one of which is used for stor
ing wheat and the other is used for
storing flour. The mill Is run by
water power from the Umatilla river
and it is ample for all purposes.
Mr. Koontz also has a neat home, at
Echo. He has a fine orchard adjoin
ing and from a small meadow of
seven acres, he cuts an average of 50
tons of alfalfa a year.
Wheat Shipments.
The Pacific Coast Elevator Com
pany has a warehouse at Echo which
has a capacity of 45,000 bushels.
John Dorn is the local agent and
buyer and handles for his company
about 70,000 bushels of grain annual
ly. There are individual shipments
which run tho total to a much larger
number. x
Business Houses.
Echo has two large general stores.
These are owned .and managed re
spectively by Charles 11. Miller, and
W. H. Boyd. Mr. Miller bought the
place owned by his father-in-law, J.
H. Koontz, who had run the store for
25 years, a few years ago and has run
it sucessfully ever since. He has a
large and substantial trade. Mr. Boyd
has only been In business two years,
but he has a good trade. He handles
a large stock of general merchandise
including implements, and is one of
the substantial business men of the
county.
R. Jones has a saddle and harness
shop and feed and livery stable com
bined. He is well equipped in every
line and does a large business.
J. H. Koontz runs a feed yard, a
place where teamsters may furnish
their own feed or purchase elsewhere,
he giving them shelter and a place to
feed free.
S. A. Thompson has the only barber
shop in town.
P. T. Whltworth has a well equip
ped blacksmith shop where he does
a large business in the line of bis
trade. He is well established, having
been in business at this place for the
past four years.
P. B. Van Cleve also has a shop,
but his principal business is the man
ufacture of a water elevator of his
own invention. The invention is prov
ing a success and his trade is branch
ing out at many points in the county.
Frank Spike is also a local manu
facturer. He Is the patentee of a rem
edy for hog cholera. He manufac
tures his remedies at this place and
has a growing trade. A recent letter
from the Prineville Land & Livestock
Co., one of the largest concerns In
the country, states that his remedies
have given satisfaction in that section
of country, and a large order was
the result.
The Hotel Platter, by J. E. Platter,
has recently been remodeled and re
arranged and is now one of the best
hotels in the county. Mr. flatter
also has a large patronage.
The Echo Land & Lumber Co.,
bv A W. Robinson, recently from
Spokane, is one of the busiest instl
tutions In Ecno. Mr. Robinson re
ports that a live building industry is
on and that he Is selling a large
amount of lumber. Improvements
among the farmers are especially no
ticeable. The prospects are good for
extensive building in the spring.
.inhn Dorn is nostmaster, veiona
Dorn is assistant postmaster and
Miss Nana Houser is deputy.
The telephone line, managed by A.
U. Thompson, Is doing a good busi
ness. It was established about five
months.
C. S. Mudge is local railroad agent,
express agent and telegraph operator.
The depot has recently Deen eumrseu
and there are those in Echo who
expect one of these days to see Echo
the end of a division of the road.
This concludes the present series
of sketches of Umatilla county.
ward the building of the machines
there. While it is not determined yet
whether or not Ihe company will build
the machines out and out there, this
course is likely. The Iron and foundry-
work will be made there and then
It Is barely possiblo that this will be
shipped to Pendleton and the wood
work and setting up done here, but
this course has not yet been determ
ined. It' was thought when the proposition
was first made to the capitalists of
Pendleton that they would make every
effort possible to have the plnnt for
the manufacture of the Rlgby-Clove
nnrvester established here. Tho com
pany only wanted $25,000 In preferred
stock taken by outsiders. This, they
onered to give an interest of 8 per
cent on so that tho monoy would
have been safe to the invester, hut
for some reason tho amount was not
forthcoming and the plant will be
built somewhere else.
THE MELLMANN ROAD SCHEME,
No One Was Taken In by the Com
panyCould Sell no Stock Here
Looking for Suckers Elsewhere.
It has Leon quite a while since
word has been heard from Henrli'l;
Hcllmann, the electric railroad pro
moter, and the people of Pendleton
are beginning to wonder what has
become of him.
The last word from Mellniann was
received from San Francisco. It was
in the shape of a letter to the Walla
Walla Statesman and in it he stated
that "all the preliminaries had been
completed and work would actually
commence on the line in a few days."
That was about two months ago Burt
since that time the daughty promoter
has dropped completely out of c.vls-
tance, so far as Pendleton people arc
concerned.
A few days ago a man arrived in
Pendleton and attempted to float sev
eral thousand shares in the company
at $25 a share, but ho met a cold re
ception here as not a sucker could
be found. The man then left as sud
denly as he came and whether or not
he is in some other more gullable
locality trying to float his shares in
an imaginable scheme or whether he
has tumbled to himself and gone
home is not known .
Very few put any faith In the pro
posed proposition to build an electric
road between Pendleton and Dayton,
when it was first talked but some
hoped that the promoters had some
money they wished to squander In up
building this country and gave it all
the encouragement possiblo.
Scenic Effects.
"I wonder." said the actress, "who
could have sent me those beautiful
flowers!"
"I didn't know you cared about that
part of it so long as I paid the bill,"
answered the patient manager. "But
I'll send around and get the florist's
name." Washington Star.
