Miller declares to be the most ca

the reports from thesfront are to the
effect that the contractor, Mr..
Mitchell is a man Of very high
character, and that be is striving
in every way to. make of the line
he is building, a model of its kind.
Of the pipe that is arriving, En-
gineer Miller says tits the best he
has. seen in the 25years that he
has been engaged in: the business.
The right of way from the head

and paid for and also fol-: nearly. all

The total cost Of the right of way
is much below original estimates,
farmers along the line having
shown a most hearty cooperation
in the effort to get mountain water
to. the people of Corvallis.
Funds are available now for all
purposes in the construction Of the
