Another Industry Is coming to
Klamath Falls. Announcement was
mado - today by Tom M. Monks,
heail ot the Portland Boiler works,
of plans to build here In the near
future a modern Iron and steel
works, representing nn Investment
of $25,000 to bo known as thj
White Pelican Iron works.1
The company has acquired a 100
by' 200 foot tract of ground ad
jacent to the Southern Pacific and
O.-C. & ' E tracks, bounded by
Adams, Vine and Mills Btreets.
Erection of the buildings will start
as soon as the Portland company
completes work now underway at
Bend, where It has tho contract for
the steel work for the Shevlln
Hlxon mill, and Is also doing work
for the Brqoks-Scanlon mill.
The local firm will not be con
nected with the Portland firm, ex
cept that Monks will head both
companies. John E. Bekooy, now
with tho Portland firm, will be man
ager and vice president, and Zuba
Z. Dennis, . also of 'the Portland
firm, will be "secretary and 'treas
urer, Monks, who will be president,
will divide his time between here
and Portland.
Tho ' plant will be completely
equipped for all sorts of welding,
boiler repairing and all other re
pair work of a similar nature, as
well as heavy steel construction
which has heretofore been left to
San Francisco and Portland' firms.
According to Monks, it will be pos
sible to furnish finished steel and
Iron products to local factories at
prices equal to those of distant
cities and, ot course without tho
delay. A atock of Bteel plate will
be kept In stock at all times,'
The .Portland Boiler works has
been established 35 years, said
Monks, and has furnished equip
ment ' for- industrial plants In all
parts ot the northwest. The local
company Is not seeking capital, but
will be flnnnoed by members of tho
Portland firm. Incorporation papers
will bo filed this week, and It is
expected that tho now plant will
be in operation within 80 days.

MEACHAM, Oregon, July 3. President Harding stopped here to
day on his western trip to pay homage-to the memory of the sturdy
pioneers who founded Oregon and saved to the nation the great northwest.
Speaking at exercises commemorating the eightieth anniversary of
the blazing ot the Oregon trail, the executive declared the American
people owe to those pioneers $ debt of gratitude which they never- can

Yet another episode of hardly less

Many ot the exploits of America's

and verse. How often In our youth,
and even in later years, have we been
thrilled by the story of .how "on
through the night rode Paul Revere,
through every Middlesex village and
farm" to call the Minute Men to em
battle Lexington and fire "the shot

But, when I stood in that historic

I could not but feel that the mag

man who, with a single companion.
