Woodbridge must lie playing the same
trick on them that the proprietor OF a

Bride and Mitchell. Just what the

can read for himself. What the
result may prove more can tell. We
long ago announced our belief that
faith had been broken with the peo-
pie regarding the completion of this
great work, and the repeated delays
which have occurred cannot be other
wise than intentional. If the work
be done as promised in this senate
rial letter, the Messrs. Day will have
nothing to do with it, the operation
being carried on under the supervi-
sion of the government engineers.
That a lack of confidence exists in
the integrity of these engineers, is as
true as it is lamentable, and the peo-
pie of Eastern Oregon viii watch
