FOR SALfc
day two works - trains comprising a
combined forced of about 50 men were
put at work finishing the cut-oft on
the main line and work will now be
rushed to completion as rapidly as
possible.
The crews were taken off some time
ago when the general retrenchment
orders were sent out over the llarrl
man system and It wus" thought at
thut time that nothing further would
be done with the cut-off until spring,
although it Is almost cojnplete now.
It la thought thut crews will be
started In different pluteu on the sys
tern, especlully on the Wallowa branch
line, where work has also been sus
pended fur some time. Much of the
new grade on the Wallowa branch has
been damaged by rains and high water
since the work was suspended and
considerable repair work will be nec
essary. Pendleton East Oregonlan.
