The bride is a daughter of Bither New ton, of Philomath, and the groom an easterner who has been in Benton about a year. They are said to be popular young people of the Philomath vicinity, with many friends who will wish them well. There is a strong belief here that Philomath uses more of . Corvallis's mountain water than it should. Re port comes from there that they use it for all sorts of purposes, up to irrigat ing two-acre garden spots. It is claim ed that many Philomath citizens use the water lavishly, absolutely without regard to waste. The Gazette-Times , has no way of knoVing the exact facts in the case, and can only suggest that officials should take means to find out the truth, and remedy any awkward situation there. Philomath is entitled to all the water contracted for, but it must be remembered that Corvallis built its pipe line to serve Corvallis first. . .. . .
