Sylvander Dawson aud some one else (the
name we have forgotten were appointed by
the County Court to view out a site for the
bridge across the South Santiam, and the

where the Narrow Gauge railroad bridge
was built, and from which it was last week
washed away. The viewers finally selected

At the foundry and machine shop. f Cher
ry "ic Parkes the water WM tweuty inches
deep on their'main floor, and several feet on
their moulding floor. Most of their machin
ery however was above the water and d am
aesd very little. Their new water flume
was floated to one tide and considerably
damaged, probably requiring to bo torn up
aud reconstructed. They won ready for
work acain on Mood ear, not much the woisc
r water. Tho railroad switch bridge
which crosses the deep gully near their shops
was washed off to one side considerably, and
will need rep'acing before it can be :. i.
The street leading down between the foun
dry and the lumber yard 0TM badly dcinor
moralized and left full of debris. A small
bridge and some plaukiug across a low, place
was all lloated out of position, and tho gen
eral appearance of things as the waters went
down was anything but orderly.
At Althouse& Co's planing mill the water
reached some twelve inches above their main
Uoor, and their machinery w?.s badly WOK.
Much labor will 1j required to prevent its
rusting. Their lumber yard has the appear
ance of having been visited by a hurricane
or by an earthquake, and is mixed in crot8
wise, endwise, lengthwise and sidewise,
without much distinction as to "race, color
or previous condition of servitude."
E. Carter and Co's sash, door and blind
factory escaped, their main floor being aliout
two feet above tho highest point reached
by the water. in the basement cf their
mill they had stored ahtcgo quantity of lum
ber which W0J mixed up and disarranged,
but otherwise uninjured.
The water was three feet and seven inches
deep on the main floor of Graf and Frem's
furniture factory, but they had taken the
