LOOKS LIKE ACTION ON
HIGHWAY TO 5. Pa
Council Orders Work to Begin This
MOnth-Asks to Have r. r. Cross
inGs SafeSuarded

Another month will see a great
improvement in the road to the S..
P. & S. station, the council having
decided to go as far as possible with
the work at the earliest opportunity.
In order to give the property own
ers ample time in which to execute
their waivers, motion was made
to waive action on the condemna-
tion suits for fifteen days. In re-
turn for the strip donated to the use
of the city, the fences and one or
two buildings will be moved for the
property owners and the balance of
the fund provided will be used for
the actual improvement of the road.
The work will begin at the eastern
end of the street.
The clerk had a communication
from the public service commission
in regard to the crossing at the S..
P. & S. station. The commission
states that the road has been Or
'iered to provide an underground
crossing at this point.
The Northern Pacific ordinance,
granting them the privilege of cross
ing a stub street to the new ware.
house, was given its first and second
readings.
Some time ago the Northern Pa
cifc and the O-W. R. & N. were
asked by the council to provide
gates at the Washington and Ia
coma street crossings, but no action
has been taken to date. Realizing
the danger of these two crossings
the council has asked the public
service commission to demand that
gates be provided at both crossings.
To inspect the fire alarm system
and fire apparatus, the fire COM
mittee will take a trip to Walla
Walla some time in the coming
week. Upon hearing their report
the city will take immediate steps
to secure such system as will safe
guard the city against dangerous
confagrations. In the discussion
of the fire alarm system the need
for a city hall was brought up by
Councilman Annis. No action was
taken at this time.
The matter of providing a special
sum for the support of the band in
the budget for the forthcoming year
was brought up, but, owing to the
absence of Councilman Reed, who
is chairman of the finance commit
tee, action was deferred until next
meeting, when he will be present.
An ordinance providing for the
inspection of plumbing and Great
fng the office of plum hing inspector,
was given its first and second read
ings.

COMPLETE CANAL
IN TWO YEARS
Engineer in Charge Of Cello Pro-
;ect Predicts Work will be Fin
ished Without interruption

With 100000 now at his dispos-
al and prospect Of 100000 at
the March session of Congress, Cap
tain H. H. Robert. of Big Eddy.
who is the Government engineer in
local charge of The Dalles-Celilo
canal, predicts that the work on
this project will continue uninter-
ruptedly until the waterway shall
have been completed, which will
probably be within two years, says
q dispatch to the Oregonian. The
appropriation received recently is
100000 more than the 1911 al
lowarce, and should the 81, 900, 900
asked for be allowed by the next
Congress, the work can be pushed
to the limit with full crew of men,
about 700, on the job all the time
until it is finished.
Around the headquarters and the
repair shops everyone is busy these
days getting dumpcars, steam SHOW
els, donkey engines and other para
phernalia in shape for the work.
One hundred men are now employ
ed and plans are made for assem-
bling full force within the near
future.
The greatest amount of excava-
ton work to be done is about mid
way between Cello and Big Eddy,
where there is 1000, 900 cubic yards
of rock conglomerate and sand to be
removed. OF this vast amount the
largest part will be handled within
the next twelve months, the al
lotment for that time being $780,
600 yards of rock, 100000 yards of
miscellaneous formations. 100000
yards of sand and gravel. The great
tandem locks at Big Eddy will also
be completed this year, as will the
second lock at Five Mile, with the
exception of the construction of the
gates.
A great amount of finishing work,
such as the lining of the great rock
cuts. where the locks are to be in
stalled, with concrete and the build
ing of retaining walls or Innings
along the canal, where fills have
been made, will remain to be ac-
complished during the last year Of
the work between the lower locks
and Five Mile, camp No. 10.
Experiments will be carried on
this year as to the best methods to
be used in building walls to retain
sand and gravel. Guess work in
this important matter does not go.
The engineers will try several meth
ods and will adopt the one proving
most efficient.
The drafting department is now
ousy working on the plans and
specifications for the construction
OF the immense steel gates which
Will be used in the locks, and a por-
ton of these will be paid for out Of
this years appropriation. The big
valves will also be included in the
