By report made by Engineer Henry
L. Gray, OF the state railroad commits
sion, there are 6059 miles of steam and
electric railroad lines in the state of
Washington, of which 333.l5 miles are
electric line and 5725 are steam line.
Since March l, 1910, about $50 miles of
road have been constructed and 400
miles more are under construction.
The Panhandle Lumber Co. is plan
| ming to put boom and hoist on the
river bank south of the railroad yards at
Metallne Falls, with view of saving
the many logs that escaped from up
river points during the high water 1t is
estimated that last year between 750, 900
and l, 900. 900 feet of logs were lost dur
ing the high water period.-News.
The street committee of the town
council has had a large quantity of gravel
| from the Gust johnson excavation
hauled onto Washington avenue. to dress
the street between First and Third
streets. A road grader and men will be
put to work distributing the gravel and
putting the street in fine condition.
The Jurgens mill at Priest River has
been unable to start. owing to low water
| in Priest river, on which stream most of
their cut is banked. The Fidelity at
Newport is also faced with the POSSIBLE
ity of shortage of logs, and may have
to close down for few days, but it is
hoped that a supply will come down
river today.
The stage of water in the Pend Oreille
today is 81 feet above low water mark.
This date last year the water stood at
8.6 feet. Considerable fear is being ex-
pressed that the water going off 80 slow
this year might cause extreme high
water, but it must be remembered that
last year the river rose unusually early.
This date, 1909, the water stood at 1.5
above low water mark.
