REPORT ON SEWER ENGINEER G. N. MILLER SUB MITS INTERESTING DOCUMENT Gives Detailed Account of Entire Sewer System Size of Pipes and Depth of Sewers Capacity and Methods of Discharging Sewage. The following Interesting extracts are taken from the report of Engineer G. N. Miller on Pendleton s sewer system: "The drainage area embraced by my design, as indicated In the plans, contains In round numbers 500 acres nnd will, when properly Improved accommodato from 25,000 to 35,000 people. The eight miles of sewers now pro posed, at an approximate cost of $3S 000, will drain the principal improved portions of this area, and as the growth of the city should demand, the sewers can be extended, so that when the whole area Is sewered permanent system has been establish ed. Depth of Sewers. The average depth of the sewers throughout the larger portions of the city Is from five to seven feet, the Alta street main, throughout the bust' ncss district Is designed for base ment drainage, the depth therefor be ing 12 feet. 'On streets with steep gradients the depth docs not exceed five feet, WIN Carry Off Roof Water. "The sewers are calculated to be of sufficient capacity to carry besides the sewage, the roof water and sub soil drainage from the basements. The admission of roof water to the Bewers will flush the Bystem thor oughly with each heavy rain. The size of sewers vary In diameter irom six to Inches, according to the carrying capacity required In each locality, the outfall main along tne o. k. & N. heing 20 Inches In di ameter and having a capacity of dls. charging B.000,000 gallone each 24 hourB. The most practical and economical method of disposing of sewage is to discharge It Into the Umatilla river, where It will be diluted with the water and carried away with the flow of the river. The amount of sewage discharged into the river will not be sufficient to cause any offense for years to come. Should the time ever arrive when the sewage would become offensive, would be practicable to build an in. terceptlng sewer alone the south side or the river to some suitable location, where sewage disposal works could be established to purify the sewage before It Is discharged Into the river. Another method of sewage disposal which has been In use In Helena, Mont, for 15 years. Is by local irri gation, by which method the sewage Is distributed over farming and gard ening lauds. This method is in use on the Blalock fruit farm at Walla Walla." GRADUATING PROGRAM. Exercises to Be Given' at Pendleton Academy at Close of Year.

Traveling Salesmen, Playing Smooth Confidence 'Garnet, The farmers of Umatilla county are being swindled by several enterprising men who represent themselves as be ing In the employ of one or another of the wholesale grocery Arms or Portland. The men represent to the farmers that they are agents of some firm In Portland, which Is desirous of en larglng its Eastern Oregon trade and that by buying their groceries of them they can get their supplies at whole sale rates and save the retailers profits. Ab a matter of fact, there are but five bonl fide wholesale grocery firms In Portland, namely, Lang & Co., Al len & Lewis. Mason, Ehrman & Co., Wadhams & Kerr Bros, and Wadhams & Co., and these firms absolutely re fuse to sell to the retail trade under any consideration. Tho tact Is that these men In the country take orders of the farmers and then buy of the wholesalers In wholesale lots, that they make a good on their Investment is shown by the following illustration. A farmer's wire in the vicinity of Pendleton, bought 50 poundB of Moun tain Java coffee at 35 cents a pound, the men claiming that to be the whole sale price at Portland. Had the lady come to Pendleton she could have bought the same coffee in one pound lots for 25 cents a nound or In bulk nt from 18 to 20 cents, thereby saving from 15 to 7.60. The -people are warned to investigate before being swindled. CLERKS WILL REORGANIZE. Union to Be Put on a Working Basis for Social Ends Only.
