Governor Olcott is elideavoi lnvr to
aift to the bottom the cIiui-kc.h that de
fectivo pavemenr.has been laid in the

In the woodpile, it is quite piHible
that the governor will find, however,
that tne crafty work of paving con

paving companies are to this concern
thorns in their side. Yet the independ

safety valve for the public. Without
them Oregon either would not 'pave

It will be noticed that the defective

in an Independent paving company's

make considerable capital of this in

would be well to' look deep under the
