To this end A. J. McMillan was
employed as engineer for the state.
These unexpected delays, the proba
bility that as matters then stood work
on the portage could not be com
menced without an increased appro
priation, and the necessity of the reg
ulation of freight charges pending
the time which must necessarily
elapse before the government could
possibly complete the canal, aroused
the producers of the Inland Empire,
as well as the shippers and commer
cial bodies of Portland, to the organ
ization of the Open River Association,
having for Its object the raising of a
fund which added to the amount of
the appropriation would be sufficient
to proceed with the work of portage
construction, and to render the state
board its moral as well as Its active
support In this great public work.
Conferences "were frequently had
between the board and the executive
committee of the Open River Asso
ciation, which finally and on Septem

Nelson and White have executed a
bond In the sum of 150.000, and Mari
ner, Smith and Hahn a bond in the
sum of 120,000, for the faithful per
formance of their several contracts.
I refer you to the contracts and bonds
on file with the clerk of the board
for minute details as to the work to
be done by the contracting parties.

TENTION TO THE MATTER HAS
BEEN UNREMITTING AND WHORE
SERVICES BOTH TO HIS CLIENTS
AND THE BOARD HAVE BEEN IN
VALUABLE AND HAVE MADE THE
CONSUMMATION OF THIS WORK
POSSIBLE. IT IS SELDOM, IN
DEED, THAT MEN CAN BE FOUND
WHO, LIKE THOSE MENTIONED
ABOVE, ARE WILLING TO SACRI
FICE BUSINESS INTERESTS, TIME
AND MONEY FOR THE PUBLIC
WELFARE,
No one not an active participant
ca appreciate the difficulties that
have beset the board and the Open
River Association In attempting to
harmonUe the conflicting Interests
of private owners who possessed val
uable fishing Interests, the O. R. &
N. Co.. with Its right of way, spurs,
and switches, and the authorities of
the United States in their efforts to
have provided a sufficient right of
way for a canal, over a distance of
about eight or nine miles along
narrow strip of land bounded on the
one side by the Columbia river and
on the other by precipitous cliffs.
All have made concessions and
some sacrifices, but the work, when
completed, will amply repay for all
these.

IT MU8T'NOT BE OVERLOOKED
THAT WHEN THE PORTAGE
RAILROAD IS COMPLETED. THE
APPROPRIATION WILL BE EX
HAUSTED, AND FOR A TIME AT
LEAST. IT CANNOT BE EXPECTED
TO. BE. SELF-SUSTAINING. I
THEREFORE SUGGEST THAT AT

APPROPRIATED OR SO MUCH
THEREOF AS MAT BE NECES
SARY TO MEET ALL EMERGEN
CIES AND TO PUT THE ROAD IN
FULL OPERATION'S SOON AS IT
IS TURNED OVER TO THE STATED
The right of way for the canal has
all been obtained except about three
quarters of an acre owned by 1. H.
Taffe for which he insists upon being
paid more than the board thinks Is
reasonable, and for this condemnation
proceedings will have to be Instituted.
Abstracts of title have been furnished
the authorities of the United States,
and upon advice of the attorney gen
eral payments are being made to the
owner. The cost of the rights of
way Including all expenses amount so
far to the sum of $70,149.75, and
there remains to be paid whatever is
awarded to I. H. Taffe for the right of
way yet to be secured from him.

This is a pure, tonic medicine, of es

disease, driving it entirely out of the
