SB THE lltTUT II
A conference between the members
of the state canal board and .Major
W. C. l-angfm, United States Kngln

by the state officers Just what man

government wants.

iiiepareu ny .Major l-angmi,
showing the proposed route of the ca
nal, were discussed, and the difficul
ties incidental in securing the right
of way by the state found to be noni
Inal. Governor Chamberlain believes
that only half the appropriation of
$100,000 furnished by the state need
be expended In purchasing the right
of way.
The proposed line of the canal Is
nearer the river than the boat tnil
way would have been, thus materially
lessening the price which will have to
be paid to the O, It, & N. company.
A rloso Investigation will be made jy
the state canal board as to the rights
of J. H. Taffe, Kvarding & Farroll anil
Seufert Ilros., all of whom have prop
erty on the proposed canal route, but
which Is below high water mark of
the Columbia river.

II. F. Hare, Supt. Miami Cycle &

ten years with dyspepsia. He spent

paper regaining the merits of Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure. I concluded to try
it and while I had no laith in it I
felt bettei alter the second dose.
After using two bottles I am stronger
and better than I have been In years,
and I recommend Kodol Dyspepsia
