Currey Jr., and Loy Wissler, all of the Observer force, took their departure this mor ning for upper. Mlnam where they will spend a week fishing. That is one of the most excellent fishing spots In Oregon, according to many, and the trip is no less an exciting one. Pishing parties who visited the up per river yesterday uniformly met with disappointment. Either the riv er Is fished out or the weather was not propitious, for only light catches were reported, and In most cases the fish were small. The river from Hil gard to Starkey was fairly lined with fishermen.

Mr. Ayers has come to an ami cable settlement with the directois and the contract which was feared would be grounds for months of liti gation, is now in the hands of the directors properly signed. The directors pay $2500 for 175 acres of land, and thereby either control or can control without use of courts, all land necessary to build the reservoir. It has hastened the ap- proach of the dam itself a period 01 months and maybe a year. . Mr. Ayers reached the city from Starkey this afternoon and It was short work for the parties interested to come to an agreement. He is the last of the doubtful owners, and much credit is due the directors for their ability to settle out of court, and to Mr. Ayers who would not stand in the way of speedy construc tion of the dam by holding out for an abnormal price for his land.
