I PLANT TO BE READY NA Supply to Be Drawn Through ' Own Mains From Oregon City's Source .of Water, CONTRACTS COMPLETED Wew Standpip I Vow riaiiaed and Xread for the Water to V Bo Puaptt Into It. Within & few days tho people of West Linn -will be uaing mountain water through their malna, conducted from the source of the Oregon City upply to their own reservoir, with pressure obtained from their own atandpipe. Standlfer & Clarkson com pany has Just completed its contrae' for. the atandpipe and reservoir, which facilities are among the bet in the state, considering their capacity. The last legislature authorized the towns of Oregon City and Went Unit to own their water systems Jointly, and this act. sponsored by Chris fichuebel of Oregon City, nas the firm bill of the fieiwdoii to become a law. Bonds wore voted in March and work was started In May. 80 far as West Linn Is concerned, the plant provides water direct from tlw mountain snows and supplants the Indiscriminate supply obtained from wells. Oregon City had a water sup ply, but tills formerly came from the Willamette river until the construc tion of the outh Fork pipe line. The new standplpe Is now entirely completed and ready for the water to. ne pipea in. i he reservoir is likewise finished, pending completion of plpo line connections and the general dis tribution syntem. The whole, H is an nounced, will bo ready for use on De cember 1, The standplpe cost approximately $25,000. It Is 63 feet high and has an liMlcke diameter of 14 feet and Is topped by a concrete dome. Its ca pacity Is 61,000 gallons. It was prac tically complete on September 29. Tho. standplpe Is stationed on an elevation In the western portion of the town. Its strength is asaured by the fact that Its walls are 1L' feet thick and built of reinforced concrete. The reservoir Is 205 feet by 130 feet In diameter at the top and 145 by 90 feet at the bottom. It Is of concrete lining and has a capacity of 2,216,00) gallons. The reservoir Is inside the town limits. Its ecst was approx- j Imately $14,000. A pump Installed at the reservoir will supply the stand - ! pipe. Tlie water enters the reservoir by means of the pipe line extension. ' liie distribution system consists or about nine miles of mains. llie entire fcystem cost about $75,000. i A feature of construction was the1 fact that concrete forming the wall . of the standplpe was poureil around ! the wooden forms in one atfernoon. i This Is a feat that has seldom been attempted, the usual way being to pour the concrete In sections, each of which Is allowed to solidify before the next is put In.

In his budget the roadmaster asked for the sum of $n88.221.70. Of this amount $283,560 provides the cost of maintenance of all the roads and the operation of quarries; $73,000 for the completion of the Columbia river high way and $231,000 for new construc tion. To raise the total amount will require a levy of approximately 1.8 tr.llls. The committee by a vote of 5 to 2 reduced the appropriation to 1.2 mills I of approximately $390,000. Thia, I says Mr. Yeon, will eliminate all new ; construction. ; Will rile Minority Beport. In hls request for the full amount 8sked for. the roadmaster will be Eupported by A. W. Jones and A. S. inson, the minority members of the ajvisory committee, who will file a minority reDort in detail recommend- Ing practically the improvements sug gested with the amendment that the Canyon road within the city be re located and regraded and that the Gresham-Fairview road be hardsur faced to a connection with the Ease Line, at least. Dlscusslrfg the reduction of his bud get by the advisory committee, Road master Yeon last night said: "The action of the majority of the budget committee, under the leadership of Mr. Teal, in applying the steam roll er to the great dertiment of next year's sfi? highway construction does not seem nsistent with the splendid progress ltnomah county has made during the past year. Poor Example to Set. "It is a poor example to set for other counties ofthe state, who are depend ing at least upon the moral support of a. progressive'highway program In this county to put through their own high way budgets. "If this county, the richest in the tate. cannot afford to keep up high- way work, then other counties cannot afford It, and the state will relapse again into the moss-back condition from which It lias Just emerged. I "The saving of 60 cents on the $1000 j assessed valuation, which Is the ap- proximate amount cut off by the com S. mlttee, may be likened to the article recently appearing In. " 'The Oregon Voter," which stated that Mr. Teal re quired his stenographer to lose $2.00 worth of time In savingwe packs of envelopes upon which to make notes.

' Medford and Power Company Agree Controversy of Three Tears' Standing Is Satisfactorily Adjusted, and Tjlgnt lnff Bills Will Be Greatly Seduced. Medford, Or., Nov. 20. The three years' deadlock between the city and the California-Oregon Power company over the franchises and rates charged the city, was settled Saturday at a special council meeting whereby a new agreement was made, the city getting 3 per cent of the gross receipts of the pqwer company, and effecting a saving of several hundred dollars per month In lighting bills.
