PIPE LINE NEEDS RENEWING

At the last meeting of the City |
Council, Water Superintendent
Arthur Nye reported to the
Council that the pipeline from
Mil Creek, which supplies the
city with water, was going to
pieces where it crosses the tide
land. This condition is caused
by the action of the salt in the
tidelands upon the steel wrapp-
ings of the wood pipe, causing
them to rust. The wrapping on
the pipe is badly eaten blythe rust
and owing to the high pressure
carried by the pipe across these
lowlands, the pipe bursts immed-
lately the wrapping gives away.
The council has been looking
into the advisability of re-locat-
ing this line on the hill around
the tidelands and has had engin-
eer Mcmillan make a survey and
plat of the proposed new route.
Mr.. Mcmillan has reported fav-
orably upon the new location
and the question now up to the
. Council is the financing of the
proposed new work.
The new part to be laid will
be approximately two miles of
pipe, all high pressure line, and
! will cost in the neighborhood OF
/ 1000 it is estimated. The City
!: has no available money with
which to do this work and it viii
I be necessary to have an election
/ to vote bonds for the purpose o.
I financing the project.

FACTORY DAY CELEBRATION.

FACTORY DAY CELEBRATION.
At the recent meeting Of the Com
mercial club the question of fitting
observance OF the opening day Of the
sugar factory was discussed. and the
BOARD OF trustees Of the club were
instructed to proceed to organize the
matter and name committees to have
charge OF the celebration. The fact
that the opening OF the factory would
mark new era in the industrial
development Of the district was recog-
nized by every man present. and the
general opinion was that Grants Pass
should put forth every effort to make
the day equal in every way to the i'm
portance OF the event which II will
commemorate. No plans have yet
been evolved for the Factory Day
celebration, but the committees will
get active Just as soon as the county
fair is out Of the way. 1t is probable
that opening day Of the factory Will
be about October 15. the exact date
not having yet been announced.
