That the big drainage project is a

the committee of settlers aud The
Washington Water Power company.
Saturday morning A. A. Darknell
aud William Doty, TWO Of the mem
bers Of the committee returned from
a trip to Spokane where they had
been In conference with the Wash
lngton Water Power Company, and
announced that all arrangements for
the drainage project we're off aud that
the only thing that could be done
wuuld be to wait until the next leg
lslatnre passes law which will be
held constitutional by the courts.
The calling off of all plans for
the getting Of the work done came
as result OF a conference with the
attorneys for the Spokane company.

lers aud the company start the work

After the law was declared tncon

the proposition impossible as one man
alone could stop the work, If it we're
possible at that to get all Others to

the owners of property affected are

which would require a longer period
