The following item appeared
in a recent issue of the News
Herald, published at ML Vernon,
Wash. The Gazette man in
terviewed a member of the firm
mentioned, and was assured that
there was little likelihood of the
plant leaving this city. The ar
ticle, however, serves as a re
minder that while we are branch
ing out after new enterprises, we
must not permit those we al
ready have to slip away from us:
The proprietors of the Frank
lin Iron Works, of Corvallis,
Oregon, two of the firm now ini
this cityj have decided to remove
their works from the Webfoot
state to some place in Western
Washington, and after looking
the Puget Sound country over
pretty thoroughly, have about
come to the conclusion that Mr,
Vernon is the proper place to lo
cate. The Franklin Iron Works is
no mere plaything, but oae of
largest concerns of the kind
operating in Oregon. The firm
is prepared to do any kind of
work in its line, and our people
can readily see what an . institu
tion of this kind;, means to Mt.
Vernon, if the owners locate
here.
W. H. Franklin, one of the
firm now in this city, will soon
have a proposition to offer the
citizens, and if it is a fair one
(which we have no doubt is all
right) our people should offer
him all the encouragement pos
sible, and assi: t in having this
company remove its works to
Mt Vernon.

Benton county convened in reg
ular monthly session last Wed

ors' fees to something like $450.
Here is between $800 and $900
added to the regular monthly
bills.
The matter of opening the

A Narrow Escape.
While driving a team across.
Marys river bridge just south
of town, last Friday, Frank Whit
aker came very near being in a
serious runaway. As he was
leaving the south end of the
bridge, a lady bicyclist passed
him and rode on to the trestle
sidewalk." His team took fright,
and with one lunge broke loose
from the wagon, and ran to the
corner of Cemetery street, where,
instead of keeping the road, they
plunged into the yard of Mr. F.
P. Morgan-, breaking down the
fence in two places. After fall
ing and struggling lor some
time, they dashed oa down the
main road, but coming to the
Mill race bridge one ot them
fell in the ditch, where they
were captured by Mr. Whi taker.
He was lucky in not having a
more serious accident.
