Cantine Reports An Understanding A great deal of interest was mani fested at Monday evening's Commer cial Club meeting in the report of the committee on the Billings hill matter. That the matter is one of great importance to Ashland is now fully realized by the people of the city, and the reading of a telegram to the state engineer and the answer was received with marked approba tion. According to sentiments ex pressed by members Monday night, the matter now rests mainly with the county court. It is believed that the compromise spoken of in the letter p-om Mr. Cantine is for a sixty-foot span, which in the estimation of members of the Commercial Club committee would be sufficient. Signed by Mayor Johnson and President Newcombe, the following telegram went to Engineer Cantine Saturday: . , i "Public sentiment strongly in fal vor of compromise on sixty-foot span under railroad and immediate, con struction of grade. Present condi tion dangerous. Both coupfy and state money available. We urge im mediate completion of this necessary unit of the Pacific highway." -In response to this telegram, En-j gineer Cantine wrote the following letter to Mayor Johnson: "Your telegram this date, in re gard to crossing negotiations with the Southern Pacific Company at Ashland hill, beg to advise we have reached a common Understanding with the engineer of the railroad company this date, which I believe will be very satisfactory to the coun ty court and the citizens of your city. The railroad people, Mr. H. L. Lull, assistant engineer, have Informed us that Superintendent Burckhalter will endeavor to obtain the approval of the executive officers at San Fran cisco at the earliest possible date. I have given a detailed progress report In a communication to the county court of Jackson county this date, which please refer to for further in formation and advice." Fred Wagner, D. D. Norrls, M. J. Duryea and Frank Jordan left this noon for Jacksonville, where they will appear in behalf of the early In auguration of the work before the county court. Notice to Contractors.
