Htep for such an agreement aro now being p-irsuid vigorously, and there I ovory imson to believe will shortly reach n satin, factory conclusion. Henry (Upson, of tho Hoanlon . Olpsqn l.umlier company, which w '"erect tho titill togc)hor with tho llrooka companies, was oven moro posltlvo than Dr. Ilrooks In hla state ment that at a very curly dnto llond will havo & big mill.

"Hut Just as soon aa that Is out of tho way wo will bo freo to (urn our attention to Mend, and I sen no reason why wo will not start construction hero Just as soon a wo possibly can got around to It."

Heroin! Mill Aim Planned. That llend'a good fortuno come In bunches wa demonstrated by the statement of William Mueller, who also was willing to go on record ns saying that the compnnle ho and hla brother aro Interested In will build at lluud. Ho stated that at present ha could any nothing further than that plan nro being worked on, pud tnat definite action probably will m forthcoming this summer. "Why should we build anywhere but at llendT", said Mr, Mueller. "Wo nro heavily Interested In the town, Tho mill site aro here tho railroads aro here, and our timber I convcnlontly situated. Yes, our mill w bo at llond, a far a It I os slbln to see now." In speaking of the now milt' effect upon imputation, J. I'. Koyes, who haa done much of tho mill con struction work for tho Ilrooks com panies for many years, did not hesi tate to state that the establishment of even one of tho mills will practic ally double tho population of tho town, white the two mills, with a double payroll of over 1000 men, would mean an Increase of llend'a population of between .1000 and 4500 people, considering only the workers and their aoponiloiita. "Why, baak at Hcanlon In Minne sota," said Mr. Kecs. "Our mill created n town of 2600 people, and at that wo wore but 2U miles from a town of over 15,000 Inhabitant. And there was little bcsldo tho mill In Kraii'.iiu " Mil i:irelrlc Plant. . Tho third announcement of great lniortauco to (lend Is that u M0,. 000 electrical (tower plant will be erected Immediately.
