Pendleton Power Plant Proposal for Paper Mill
Fred Walters of the Farmers' Custom Mill proposes diverting river water to run a quarter mile canal and install an electric plant to power a straw paper and flour mill. He estimates 500 horsepower, with surplus energy for private firms, to spur Pendleton's growth toward 10,000 by 1905. Previous straw-paper ventures failed but conditions may now permit a profitable mill with steady year round employment.
