WORK SHOULD COMMENCE
Filling In Behind Stone Wall by In
land People.

Work on the stone wall in front OF the
court house, being continuation of the
wall already in place erected by the In
land people, is going on apace, showing
the extensive work in progress to widen
the channel of the river as we'll as to re
habilitate that end OF Main street.
In this connection it is not asking too
much of the Inland Empire Electric Rail-
way Co. to fill in behind the wall put up
by that company, which is the site of
the depot grounds, as we'll as to com
mence the erection OF passenger depot
building, something quite in contrast
with the temporary quarters now in use
This work, commenced without unneces
sary delay, should follow in close con-
nectlon with the work being done on
Main street fronting the Inland's prop
erty by the city, the two having a re-
lationship little more intimate than
that OF first cousins. Perfect terminal
depot grounds and modern and up to-
date passenger depot building is what
we have a right to expect, and that with
out unnecessary delay.
The contract for the Codd bridge will
be rushed to completion, so We have the
word OF Mr.. Janney, the contractor.
Contracts for steel girders to span the
rock walls on which flooring will be laid
the entire width of Main street fronting
the Inland depot grounds have been let,
which, when they arrive, will not take
long to put in place. The work all along
the line should be kept agOing.
