100 YEARS AGO
June 2, 1921
After half a day off , the
East Oregon plant resumed
work yesterday noon with
the same wages and hours
of work as before. the half
day of idleness was devoted
to considering a proposed
change in working hours.
The fi rst day of June had
been set as the date for a
new wage scale to go into
eff ect in the lumber indus-
try of the northwest. This
scale had been drawn up by
a committee representing
employers and workers and
is about 14 per cent under
the scale now paid in East
Oregon mill. The reduc-
tion was made following
the continued decline in the
price of lumber.
The great sheep ranch
of Peter Beaudoin will be
broken up and the prop-
erty liquidated as soon as
business conditions permit.
This is one of the results of
the depression in sheep and
wool which has cost every
fl ockmaster in the country
dearly. A safe for the val-
ley lands of the ranch will
be sought fi rst, probably to
many smaller farmers, and
the sheep will be disposed
of to any buyers who want
them.
