According to Contract.

Last week the Corvallis water
committee sent r. NJ. Gilbert, of
this city, to Tacoma, WASH, in
order that he might inspect the
pipe that is now in course of
manufacture in said city for use
| in the Rock Creek water system
now being installed by the city
of Corvallis. Samples OF pipe,
that had already arrived in this
city were not according to CON
tract so Mr.. Gilbert was sent up
to inspect the pipe.
AS a result Mr.. Gilbert con-
demned much pipe, some of
which was ready for shipment to
Corvallis. In view of the state
of affairs Mr.. Russell, a repre-
sentative of the Tacoma pipe
manufacturing company, came
down to Corvallis during the
first of the week, accompanied
by Mr.. Gilbert. Mr.. Russell de-
sired to meet with the members
of the water committee, which
pleasure was afforded him Tues
day afternoon.
When the matter came up for
discussion, Mr.. Russell said
that he was sending to Corvallis
pipe such as was being sent to
Fother cities on similar contracts,
that a little sap here and there
had never been turned down be-
fore. The committee firmly told
the gentleman that they cared
not what was acceptable to other
cities, but that the contract with
Corvallis called for wood pipe,
clear and free Of sap, and that
said contract must be lived up
to in every detail.
This was practically the size
OF the situation and Mr.. Russell
returned home satisfied that moth
ing short of a good, faithful full
flllment of our contract will salts
fly us. Mr.. Gilbert has also re-
turned to Tacoma to continue
his duties as pipe inspector for
Corvallis.
At the meeting Tuesday after
noon every member of the water
committee was present except
ing Senator Avery, who is in
San Francisco on business, and
Thomas Leese, who also was out
of town attending business. The
water committee have acted
wisely in this matter.
