Board Of Viewers
For Billings Hill

The Billings hill matter is up
again. Renewed activity in getting
the half mile of tire-eating rough
ness and gasoline devouring steep
ness changed into a gently graded,
paved highway is augured by the
appointment of a board of viewers at
a meeting of the county court Mon-
day.
County Surveyor Brown, Road Su-
pervisor Jack True, and d. NJ. Lowe
were appointed viewers to 80 over
the proposed route for the grade up
the hill. They will go over the route
selected by State Engineer Cantine,
pronounce upon its feasibility and
award damage, if any.

Crew Finds Few
Leaks in Pipe

The mineral water pipe lines are
being gone oFer for leaks and a few
found, which are being fixed. Ac-
cording to experts, the wood pipe
takes three to four months to settle
and soak up, and leaks may be ex-
pected to spring in that time, but
after the pipe once becomes settled
the mineral water mains will give no
more trouble than any other kind of
pipe. Any wood pipe springs leaks
until it becomes settled, and the same
trouble was experienced with the
wood pipe in the city water mains at
first.

Arrest Speeders
On the Highway

An active campaign against speed
ers on the Pacific Highway between
Ashland and Medford has been insti-
tuted by county officials, and at least
three autoists were arrested yester-
day who were exceeding the twenty
five miles an hour allowed under the
law. Officers riding in private cars
time the speeders, and many more ar
rests are likely to be forthcoming.
1t has been announced that where
drivers have not sufficient amount
of "cash on hand" to meet the fine
imposed, jail sentence will be the
result.

State Health Men
Will Go Over Plant

Upon invitation of the springs wa
ter commission, representative of
the state board of health will be here
on the 18th or 18th of this month to
inspect the mineral water plant. Ru-
mors that the pipes are unsanitary
have been circulated, and while
deemed to be groundless, it is
thought best to have the state Off
cials go over the plant and get the
seal of their approval.

S. P. Engineers Will

tion and sends their engineers as a
further token of their interest in

March Meet Of
Commercial Club

The Commercial Club met in it's
regular monthly session Monday even
ing with a good attendance present
After the regular routine business
had been attended to, Mr.. Carson, for
the industrial committee, reporting
on the cannery proposition, said that
they had had several meetings and
had decided on a plan Of action
which they would start on in a few
days, the plan being to revive the old
cannery here and put the same in
working condition. He stated that
Mr.. Rand of the Fruit Association was
working with them and they would
have more to report at the next meet
ing. Mr.. Carson stated that it was
the policy of the committee to stay
with one matter until they had eth
er failed or accomplished their end.
They were complimented on this trait
and asked to continue their activi-
ties.
Mr. Carson also spoke of an evap-
Grating concern which Mr.. Rand had
investigated while on a, trip north,
and over which the committee were
very enthusiastic, but was unable to
give the details of the proposition
which they had made the committee,
they being in the hands of Mr.. Dill.
They were instructed to further in
vestigate the proposition and bring
before the club at the next meeting.
President Smith appointed the fol-
lowing members of the Commercial
Club to represent the club on the
celebration committee; Frank Jor-
dan, II. o. Frohbach and d. d. Nor
rs.
There being no new business, It
was suggested by Henry Enders that
the meeting be turned into a sort of
love feast or testimonial meeting,
and the springs proposition be dis
cussed. Frank Jordan, one of the
springs water commissioners, being
present, was called on to explain the
present status of the matter. Mr..
Jordan explained by stating that he
would be glad to answer any ques-
tions which he could These ques-
tfons brought some interesting facts
TO the surface, on which the public f.
has been misinformed, and which is
so much unnecessary evil
among the outsiders. The main
points brought out were that there
ire very few leaks in the pipe line,
hat the lithia is satisfactory and
in the park again, and that
he greatest trouble with the propo-
ition at the present time is the
Dodge soda, and which is being in
estigated at this time. 1t was also
rought out that the many suits for
amages which have been quite a
Dpic of conversation for the curb
tone meetings, have dwindled down
} nothing and are being settled rap
lily and at very nominal figures.
Ir. Jordan stated that the plant was
l charge of competent engineer
ON Portland that the waters were
eing analy2ed by the Agricultural ,
ollege at Corvallis, and that report
! same could probably be had with
thirty days. Mr.. Jordan stated ,,
at he thought the people should in
,stigate these matters for them
Ives before making statements to
hers, and be sure they are right.
At the conclusion of the discussion
was moved that the matter should
discussed at the next meeting of
Q club, and any one having ques-
ms to ask regarding the springs or il
ant be on hand. Motion was sec Ii
ded and carried. Il
