WIRES INTO WALLOWA.
Crew Will Construct W. II. ond O. It.
& N. Wires at Once.
Commencing tomorrow morning the
O. R. & N. will commence to tap
Wallowa county with a telegraph
wire extending the Western Union and
O. It. & N. wires now terminating at
-Elgin, on to Joseph. This Is a task of
no small proportion. A crew of 18
men arrived today from,Portland with
equipment to do the work, and they
will start the 80 days' task tomorrow,
under supervision of Mr. Mann. The
O. R. A N. will do the construction
f work and have a aeries of wires with
which to run trams from here to Jo-
j seph when the service is put on. ' In
J addition to the O. R. AN. wires there
will be a Western Union wire in con
nection and thereby telegraphic com
munication with Wallowa county will
be established. It Is planned to es
tablish relay offices at Enterprise and
at Joseph for the Western Union.
O. R. & N. wires Invariably follow
the construction of a new road, but
the construction of Western Union
service Is. a boon to residents of the
Interior county, as telephone relays
have heretofore been resorted to. .
It will talre approximately 09 days
to complete the line on to the destin
ation of the branch line. There will
be about three linemen and 15 ground
men 'employed during that time. The
crew and material arrived today.
