Water Is Low in Reservoirs and

--' - (Special PUiiitoh to Tha JwkmI.) '
Cottage Grove. Or, July 13. There 1a
a strong probability that Cottar Grove
will have Its annual water famine. On
Monday night the pressure :at the light
ing plant dropped from 85. pounds,; at
6" 'clock to 10 pound at 9 o'clock, and
the company expects to have to shut
down between these nours for wantof
! water, if consumers are permitted to
continue Irrigating lawni and gardens.
iThe reservoir west of the city, which
'has a, capacity of 880,000 gallons, had
about 78,000 gallons of water Monday
' morning, and. the- greater part of this
)had accumulated during the night The
source of supply ' fa rapidly becoming
i exhausted, and little relief from - this
, reservoir may' be .expected until after
rainfall j It is from this reservqjr that
!the city water supply comes, the other
two reservoirs being for fire purpoaea.
The reservoir on the butte has a ca
pacity of 200,000 gallons, and Is about
two thirds full of water, but It would be
a calamity to be compelled to turn It
Into the mains, as the water Is stagnant,
laving giuuu lur muio liibu a, cat.
reservoir on Landess hill, which gets Its
supply from the reservoir west of the
city, has a capacity of 200,000 gallon a
The water contained In this is fresh and
pure, but Is reserved for use In case of
fire, it being the city's only salvation
should a ftre occur. It will, therefore,
be' seen that Cottage Grove is depen
dent upon the west reservoir for water
and there Is comparatively little to be
had. The reservoir on Landess nm, un
der present conditions, would keep two
two inch streams playing about lour
hOUrS. : ' . i ,;....'.
' Water Is Conserved. ; ' y
Water Commissioner Green Pitcher
has Issued an order to consumer of
water that Us use for lawn sprinkling
ana me irrigation or garaens mini no
discontinued forthwith under penalty.
During the remainder of the summer wa
ter may be used only when absolutely
necessary.- t
This condition will prevail until tne
new pine line from Layng creek, now
under construction. Is completed, which
will ba sometime In September,' when
Cottage Grove will have an. abundant
supply of water for all purposes, , The
American Light & Power company, con
tractor of the new pipe line, is rushing
the work as fast as possible. Over 100
men -are now employed, and additional
help Is being sent to the front as fast
as It can be secured. Pipe Is arriving,
and laying was commenced this week.
This wood pipe comes from Washington,
and there haa been soma jlelay In trans
portation, but Mr. men, who ts superin
tending the work,' expects that' It will
now come forward as fast as it can be
used. , - t v

tomorrow afternoon from Chicago and
San 'Francisco. In a letter to Manager
Chapman .of the Commercial club pro.

man ' railroads have secured a large
amount of space at the land show . to
be held: in Chicago next winter that
will be used largely In exhibiting the
resources of Oregon to the thousands
of land seekers who will visit the Chl

Mr. McMurray writes, that the most
will be made of this Opportunity by the
Interests ha represents and that he will
cooperate with 'tha Commercial club
and others in getting tha greatest pos
sible benefit h . .
Last year , tha Union ' ahd Southern
Pacific systems madav a splendid dis
play at tha land show. A Oregon was
shown to better advantage in tne east
than at any time In tha history of the
state outside of the big expositions. It
is not only intended to duplicate this
success next wlater, but to increase tha
showing -and secure better exhibit than
ever before. . : : '-?' 1
Mr. McMurray haa taken a special In
terest in the land show and wtll give It
his attention during the remainder of
the year. He realises tha value to the
atate to. coma -from, these axhiWta and
la determined, to make this avenue of
publicity as conrplete and striking as
possible. Mr. McMurray ap,d tha Inter
ests he : represents have- always coop
erated fully In exploiting Oregon, and
at the coming land show, it la promised
that former :ff orta will ba emtdjna ,

The men who collect fares and control
the. "Juice" i oh the streetcars nava a
bigger v interest nowaday than trans
porting tha people at a nickel each. ; '
On every division the sole topics oi
streetcar conversation are ' the gold
watch popularity contest and tha annual
plcnlo of -the Brotherhood of JBllectrlo
Railway employes, which Is to be held
at the Oaks onvjuly IQ. To hear them
talk It t evident that each wants to be
popular, enough' to win, a watch, and all
are planning to attend the plonks. .
Oddly enough, the annual picnic of re
tail grocers -will be held on the same
date, and. It has 'been decided to make
both events cooperative. , i Such of the
carmen as wish to plcnlo .with the gro
cers have an invitation to do so.- In re
turn, every grocer has been Invited to
become .witnessea of the evening pro
gram of.the carmen at the Oaks park. . .
One oi the features of entertainnent
provided for the carmen Is a concert by
the Navasaar Ladles' band, composed of
43 pieces.. The afternoon concert will
ba in the open air free to .all, while a
charge of 10 cents wtll be made for ad
mission to tha Oaks auditorium, where
the evening concert will ba held. The
committee on : entertainment has also
provided a; numbea of novel features,
which they believe Will contribute to the
satisfaction of a)l comers. ; w j
To make it easy . for tbs people who
live on the O. W.A lines, where more
than 5 cent . fare is charged, special
rates will be made to all who wish to
attend the plcnlo. . .,, '- ' . ; -
As the same time for the awarding of
the gold watches among tha platform
men of the Portland Railway, Light &
Power company draws near, the contest
narrows. - At present it seema there are
