CONNECT WITH

Hartman Lines Secure
Entrance Over U. & W.R.
Lines

PORTLAND, Ore, July 17.-Flnal
plans have just been completed Tor tne
entry of the Oregon and washington
railroad into Seattle and TACOMA
which assure the success of one OF the
most important railroad projects ever
undertaken in this section. To Port
land, where the oregon and Washing
ton will connect with the Southern Pa
cific and the oregon Railroad & NaVl-
CATION company lines, the new Harrl-
man road has been laid out especially
for the handling of fast and heavy
traffic over the 200 miles that separate
Puget Sound and the Columbia river.
Into Seattle the oregon and wash
ington will enter by tunnel more than
a mile long to avoid congestion OF
traffic on the waterfront streets. For
a different reason the Hartman en-
gineers found it necessary to run their
lines underground into Tacoma as we'll
The grades Of the route originally
plotted for Tacoma were so heavy that
orders were issued for the surveying OF
a line that would avoid the rises of the
Tacoma table-land that any road from
the south must cross or climb. The
decision of the engineers was not to
climb at all, but to. go under the city
by a tunnel 8,7O0 feet long.
The south portal Of the bore will he

Continuing far enough underground
not to interfere in any way with the

blocks have been purchased for track
age and two blocks for passenger
station that will rival the projected

The effect Of the extension Of the
Hartman lines to Seattle will be prac

new SYSTEM
PERFECTED
Payette Citizens Have Great.
" Added to Their Irrig.
atiOn Facilities

After q long and trying delay, due
to the slowness of the railroad COM
pany in transporting the material, the
last of the pipe for the Payette Irri-
CATION companys new gravity system
arrived last week and the system is
now perfected, says the Independent.
The company was organized in 1908
for the purpose of furnishing water for
irrigation purposes only, and to none
but stockholders of the company.
With the new gravity system water
will be furnished to the general public
for various uses, much in the same
manner as city water is furnished.
This year water will be furnished to
all stockholders in open bitches as 1t
was before, and everyone holding one
share of stock will be entitled to tap
the main with one-inch pipe for wa
ter for sprinkling purposes; but next
year a regular schedule of fat meter
rates will be established for the use
of water through pipes.
There are now 252 families depend
ent upon the system for irrigation wa
ter and it will be available for approx
imately half of the city for water for
sprinkling, sewer flushing and irriga-
ton. The line of pipe is little less
than a mile and a half in length, run
ming from the Lower Payette ditch in
a direct line west along Tioga street
to C. E. Brainard's corner and thence
north 400 feet. The first ALSO feet Is
of 24-inch pipe, the next 500 feet is of
1S-inch, the next 1000 of 16-inch and
the balance of 12-inch. The line has
already been tapped for three branch
six-inch mains and for numerous four,
two and on-inch lines. One six-inch
main has already been laid along
Front street as far as the cemetery.
The water has a fall OF 220 feet
from the ditch to the level of the side
walk at the bank corner.
The Payette Irrigation company is
capitalized at $4,000, divided into
l 900 shares of stock at a par value of
$40 each. The estimated value of the
system is now $4,000, which includes
an unlimited franchise through the
streets and the alleys Of the city north
OF Main street. The enhanced value of
the system was recently established
by the raise in the price Of stock on
the market from $40 to sl5 share.
