Late Friday night Wllamette .tolo
march uoon Its competitor., and de
cided to annex about two-fifths of this
school district, and to do It at once.
The law provides that four week, no

such matters, and the Willamette folk
got their election notice, posiea
shortly before midnight, so that they
will be able to hold tneir election
June 28. It took ome rustling to
set the notioe. printed and posted,
and to make arrangement, for other

that must be given the matter. But
it waa successfully done, and now
Willamette is chuckling and reeling

Ita citizens believe that they have
stolen a march on the rival claimants
of the much-desired strip of property,
Their election calls for Its annexation
to Willamette, and there are many
reasons to believe that the election
will carry by a heavy vote. No mat

hustle now, they cannot hold their
election before June 29, and as tnat
date comes on Sunday, they cannot
ho!d it before June 30. This give.

That the county bridge across the
riarknmaa river at Estacada is seri
ously weakened, owing to structural
faults, and that it is in a condition
rianeerous to traffic, was the com-
nlalnt made to the county commis
sioner, at their session on Wednes
day. It was set forth that the span
had lost its "camber," and that one
of the poat. on the wuth side was
two inches off the angle block, while
other weaknesses of a minor nature
had also been discovered.
The bridge is of the Howe truss
variety, and is of about 140 feet
span. The loss of "camber" means
that tb longtltudinal flooring of the
structure, which should be sugnciy
convex, has sagged until it 1. actually
concave: and this bring, about a
weakness in the fabric which seri
ously cut. down iu margin of safety
under loads, and makes It llaote to
collapse under great stress.
The Estacada bridge was built only deep scholar.
