logging agreement whereby UP awarded logging concessions in one of its properties in
favor of the lumber company in consideration of royalties, forest fees, etc. Sometime after,
the lumber company failed to pay the said fees despite demands. To avoid termination of
the agreement, the lumber company executed an "Acknowledgment of debt and Proposed
Manner of Payments" whereby it was expressly stated therein that UP had "the right and
power" to rescind the logging agreement in case of default of the lumber company.
