GRADE CASE DISMISSED
UTJUSfCTIOlV AGAINST . RAILROAD
'ASKED 4 EARS AGO, DENIED.
Right Given O.-W. R. & IV. to Continue
Elevation of Road Near Sherars
Bridge Change Was Sought.
By a decision of Judge Bean in
the Federal Court the application
of the Eastern Oresop Land Com
pany for an injunction restraining the
O.-W. R. & N. Company from continu
ing its. railroad grade near Sherar's
bridge along the Deschutes River at
its present elevation was dismissed.'
As a result the grade will remain
at its present position and the com
pany, according to estimates presented
by its attorneys, will be saved the un
necessary expenditures of many thou
sand dollars.
The case has been pending for many
years. It was first brought soon after
the railroad was built in 1909 and 1910
for the ostensible purpose of forcing
the railroad to raise its grade an ad
ditional 10 feet 'at a point where the
Eastern Oregon Land Company has
planned to construct a power dam.
' The company contended that at the
time the road was built it made every
possible ef f o'rt to secure & right of way
on its established grade, without re
suits. It seems that after the death
of Sherar. the original owner, his
heirs gave a lease on the property to an
agent for a land company. The lease.
it is said was "peddled" to several other
companies and finally came in pos
session of the Eastern Oregon Land
Company, complainants in this case.
Attorneys for the O.-W. R. & N. Com
n&nr contend that they made an honest
effort to find the holders of the lease,
who were in Europe, but that failing to
find them, they established their grade
at an elevation that allowed 55 feet
for a dam.
The . complainants declared that 55
feet is not sufficient and that a dam
less than 65 feet in height will greatly
impair the value of the proposed power
project.

STREET REPAIR STARTS
WORK- ON ALDER LEFT IN HANDS
OF PROPERTY" OWNERS.
Commissioner Dieck Presents Figures
Showing; Cost Nearly Twice That
' " of Responsible Contractor.
Although Commissioner Dieck sub
mitted a report to the Council yester
day to the effect that it would cost
$1778 properly to patch the paving in
Alder street from Sixth to Lownsdale,
property owners .presented figures
-showing that- a responsible local
contractor, the Barber Asphalt Com-.
pany. was willing to take a contract
to do the work for tlOOO. Accord
ingly, the Council passed a motion
granting the property owners a per
mit to contract for the work ana go
ahead with repairs under the city's
supervision at their own expense.
Although Commissioner Dieck said
it was a waste of money, the contrac
tor who is willing to undertake the re
pairs said he would agree to maintain
the patches for two years. Mr. Dieck
said he thought the repairs wpuld not
last. A committee, of which W. F.
Woodward is chairman, will negotiate
for the contract, receive bids from con
tractors, and it is expected repairs will
be started at once. -
Property owners between Sixth and
Broadway announced that they would
be ready to patch the holes in their
pavement within 24 hours after they
get permission, and would agree to
keep the pavement in repair. The
same promises - were offered by the
property owners all the way along the
street, as far as Twelfth street. The
repairs will be done at no expense to
the city, although the city has a fund
of $20,000 on hand for paving repair
purposes exclusively. "
George "L. Balcer, representing the
Rose Festival Association, appealed to
the Council to get busy at once on thfc
general repair of the pavement in th
business district. . He said many of the
streets are in a deplorable condition,
and if not repaired, will make a bad
impression with the visitors to the
Rose Festival in Juner
