{Hr Cuttw (taur ê’imtüwl COTTAGE GROVE, LANE COUNTY, OREGON, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1923 VOLUME XXXIV NUMBER. 9 ------ ------------------------------ 0 Government Is to Assure a Sufficient Water Supply for a Population of 3500 Persons. Cut of Two Billion Feet Is Made Possible by Resolution Which City Council Adopts. The city council and the forest service have practically arrived at an agreement whereby the sale is permitted of about two billion feet of timber upon the Layng creek watershed, from which tho city secures its supply of water. The point upon which negotia tions, which have been iu progress several months, have hinged is whether there is a sufficient supply of water in Dinner creek, to which point the forest service wishes to move the city’s intake. The city council has hesitated in concluding the necessary negotiations for fear that at the time of greatest con sumption, when the water in the creek is lowest, the supply would not prove sufficient. Measurements taken this year in dicate that there is a greater supply than the consumption should be for a city of this size and the forest service seems to have demonstrated that, by the use of Prayther creek as an auxiliary supply, there can be no question of ample supply at all times. The forest service will extend the city’s water mains to Dinner creek, build an auxiliary line up Prayther creek and construct concrete intake dams at both points, all without cost to the city. This is said to be the first time the forest service has taken action of this kind. The purchase of this timber was contemplated by the Western Lum ber & Export company, which re cently went into the hands of re ceivers. It has been stated that had the sale of this timber been permit ted at the time the negotiations were started early during this year, the Western Lumber & Export com pany would have been able to have weathered its financial troubles. The company planned to cut forty million feet a year. Not until a month ago, however, were there any data upon which members of the city council could depend for assur ance that it was to have a suffi cient water supply. It is thought that this action of the city council will assist in resumption of activi ties at 'he Western Lumber & Ex port company’s plant. The following resolution was adopted at the meeting of the coun cil Monday night: ! CITY OFFICIALS FURNISH I AUTOMOBILES FOB ULTRA | PARTICULAR CAR THIEVES <8>----------------------------------------------- ❖ Automobile thieves must have an idea that cars owned by officials of the city of Cottage Grove are of unusually fine class. Mayor Brand's new Chevrolet coupe was stolen from Fifth Avenue east in Eugene early Friday after noon while he was transacting busi ness in the office of the Booth- Kelly Lumber company. The car was parked opposite the rear of the office of the company. When he returned for it within 20 minutes it was gone. It was found abandoned on the streets of Mjedford Monday and Mr. Brand went after it Tues- day morning. Mr. Brand had left his overcoat and driving gloves in the car and in the coat were some important letters. Councilman E. E. Eads had quite a time securing the return of his Hudson, which was stolen several months ago. He also had to go to Medford to get it. Operations to Be Continuous Until Company Keeps Its Promise to Get Oil. Drilling at Cottage Grove’s pro posed oil well at the summit of Mount David will be well under way within a few days. Operations were delayod for several weeks on account of inability to secure neces sary equipment. Everything has now arrived and has been put in po sition. The big standard drill will make its first stroke at 3 o ’clock this afternoon. The public has been invited to be present and an address will be made by David E. Olson, president of the Guaranty Oil com pany. A large fuel tank has been placed at the foot of Mount David and has been filled. The oil will be pumped up the hill to another tank which has been placed there. D. E. Olson, moving spirit in the operations here and in Eugene, be lieves that it will be possible to keep operations going almost stead ily until the time that he fulfills his promise of securing oil within two years from the date he made the promise. He has kept his prom ise to have a standard drilling out fit in operation within six months. Despite all that has been said derogatory to operations of Sage & Olson Brothers elsewhere, those who are interested with him in the op erations* here and at Eugene seem to have implicit confidence in him and to believe that there is a splendid chance of their money increasing many times through the operations here. The same concern, the Guaranty Oil company, is conducting opera tions at both Cottage Grove and Eugene and stockholders in each of tho cities will benefit from the striking of oil at either well. C.

Proclamation Citizens of Cottage Grove are called upon to observe Monday, November 12, as Armistice Day. We should cease from our usual labors upon this day and dedicate it to those who so nobly served their country at home and upon other shores dur ing the great war which came to a close upon Novem ber 11 five years ago. We should attend and assist in ceremonies commemorating the supreme service of those who baptized the field of honorable battle with their life’s blood and saved to the world the greatest free gov ernment of all ages. ANDREW BR.UND, Mayor. The city council already is mak- ing preparations to guard against shortage of water during the dry season of next year. Included in the plans now being considered is an additional reser voir on the property now occupied by the east side reservoir, to have a storage capacity of half a million gallons of water. The present reser voir, the use of which will be con tinued, has a storage capacity of less than 200,000. The west side reservoir has a capacity of 385,000 gallons. This will be used as an emergency stor age reservoir, as it new is, so that with the contemplated additional reservoir the city will have a water storage capacity of over a million gallons. It is estimated that this storage capacity is sufficient for a two days’ supply at maximum con sumption. It is possible that this storage capacity of the west side reservoir may bo increased. Material has arrived for the build ing of a penstock at the city's in take in the forest reserve. This will start with a 20-inch pipe and be re duced to a 12-inch pipe.

If for any reason the city shall find, at any time during the contin uation of logging operations upon the Layng creek watershed, that Dinner creek and Prayther creek do not furnish a sufficient supply of water, the forest service shall grant to the city the use of the Junietta creek watershed or any other watershed (except the Herman creek watershed) which the city may deem necessary for its use, snch watersheds to be tributaries of Layng creek and within the forest reserve and shall grant the city the same rights upon such watershed or watersheds as it now enjoys upon the Dinner creek watershed. When the preceding stipulations are embodied in a contract or agree ment from the forest service and (or) department of agriculture, and ac cepted by the city council, resolu tion of the city of Cottage Grove, adopted November 6, 1922, and all other resolations in which the forest service is requested to withhold from sale the timber on Layng creek above the mouth of Dinner creek, shall become null and void and the city council of the city of Cottage Grove shall so declare. The forest service has represented that early action is desirable in making possible the sale of timber upon the tracts described in this resolution. This fact has left insuf ficient time for the city of Cottage Grove to determine that the pro posed sources of water supply are going to prove suffieiont for even the present population. The very fact of the sale of the timber which makes this resolution necessary, is likly to bring about an inereaae in population and there are other rea sons to anticipate a material growth in population and need for a greater supply of water than that likely to be furnished by Dinner and Pray- thcr creeks. Inn re fore this resolu tion shall not be construed to in dicate that the city of Cottage Grove will ask for no other sources of water supply. The sisue of The Sentinel of next week (Thursday) will be sent to over 1000 ad ditional families in the Cot tage Grove trade territory —including families in Cres well, Walker, Lorane, Drain, Yoncalla, Comstock, Curtin, Anlauf, Row River, Mosby Creek and Coast Fork.

Anderson, prominent hero for many years in the lumber, pole and piling busiuess and as an eligi ble bachelor, now a newlywed, no longer has any doubt as to the high regard of his Maaonic brethren. Upon Saturday evening they cap tured him at the home of his par ents-in-law, Mr. arfd Mrs. N. W. White, on the London road, whisked him to the lodge room, prepared him in due and ancient form and gave him some degree work that was entirely new to him, despite the fact that he has taken the Scot tish rite werk and the Shrine. The * ‘ work' ’ was different from most Masonic work in that there was nothing secret about it. In fact, the greatest possible amount of publi city was sought. A motor car was the ‘ ‘ goat ’ ’ which Brother Ander son led and rode through the main section of the city. Tho cavalcade of motor ears kept their horns screeching and thereby attracted such attention to the “ceremony” that the regular week-end business of tho city came to a complote standstill. Brother Anderson lator presided as host at a crab feed which thoughtful members of the “de gree ’ ’ team had in readiness for Mr. Anderson’s invitation. Fifty Masons enjoyed the hospitality. Mr. Anderson had returned two days bofore from a trip to Sweden to visit relatives. It is thought that Brother Anderson had antici pated what the brethren would have in store for him aud thought it a wise precaution to visit his Euro pean relatives beforehand. The bride, who was Miss Adello White, met Mj. Anderson in Bur lingame, Calif., where thoy were wed. She is a daughter of one of the best known pioneer families of Lane county. She is worthy matron of tho Eastern Star lodge and taught for several years in the Cottage Grove schools. The Masonic lodge several years ago adopted the custom of giving special degree work to brethren who become benedicts. Brother Ander son, because ho had beon a ring leader in several such events, got more than any of the others. Plans for his reception had been accumu lating for many years. 8.

Despite the heavy favorable vote out over the Btuty, the proposed in come tax law seems to have been defeated by a few hundred votes, due to a vote of two to one against it in Multnomah county. Lune county went nearly four to one for tho tax, with nearly 5000 voting. Cottage Grove was the only city in the eounty to give an un favorable vote and one of tho few outside of Portland to do so. Three Cottage Grove precincts voted fa- torabiy, but tho heavy unfavorable vote in the other two precincts gave a majority of 23 against the tax. In the country districts in tho Cottage Grove section the vote was 373 for aud 44 against. Many country districts ovor the county gave an almost unanimous vote for tho proposed tax, among them being Pleasant Hill, 76 to 0; Jasper, 39 to 0; Irving, 57 to 1; Willamette, 97 to 1; Biuslaw, 54 to 1, and Bpencor 56 to 1.

The fact is they had at the time I visited Half Moon Bay a month ago, one producing well which I was ad vised ut tho time I wus there was producing about one barrel per day. I am advised that in February this well produced five barrels per day. This information comes from the oil and gas commissioner of Cali fornia. Tho people who pump this well along with some of their own wells advise that when thoy first commenced to pump same it pro- dueed about 18 barrels per day. This remarkable well was located, so tho story goes, 300 yards or there abouts, from two wells which havo produced a little oil for a great many years, by Olson’s mysterious oil finding device. 1 am not famil iar with till the excuses and apolo gies which Olson offers for his and Hoge’s showing at.
