COST OF NEW LEVEE
(Continued from page 1.)
Take some of the highest knockers
In Pendleton and you will usually find
peor-le who buy .every conceivable
thing possible away from this city. In
the growth of any live town or city
you wlrl find people loyal "to their
merchants. There are people In and
near Pendleton who will buy sugar or
provisions that have no margins at all
of their grocer, who Is kind enough
to carry their account from -one har
vest to another. These same people
pay cash to peddlers for teas, coffees,
etc., and pay more for It, rather than
buy of the merchant who wears a
clean collar and new shine, tries to
look pleasant and prosperous. Your
home merchant pays taxes on his
stock that maintains your schools and
makes the town a good place to live
In. His money Is spent here and falls
Indirectly, into TOUR pocket. Trill
you leclprocate or will you later "lose
your job" because the boss is too poor
to keep you'' Wake up! Fill your
chest with Pendleton osone and be
lieve that this city has the only red
spot on hte map. Breathe your en
thusiasm Into you fellow neighbor.
Be optomlstic and you'll find this city
a hummer. Before you put your shoul

Is steep on each side and -under the
Main street bridge, lay1 up a stone
wall with cement mortar.
From station S9 to 15 hulld a levee
on the new location with a wall on
bedrock along the outer toe and the
face of the levee rtprapped with
large rock.
When the levee is extended later
from station 105 to the O. R. & N.
railroad, build a levee on the new lo
cation. To carry the rrap down to
bedrock on this section will be ex
pensive and In my opinion it will not
be necessary If two cribs are put in
near the upper end to divert the cur
rent away from the levee.
By repairing the toe of the levee
with large stone above the Main street
bridge, th's part of the levee would
probably stand any ordinary flood,
but to make the levee safe against
such floods as occurred this year the
work should be done as outlined In
this report. If the work Is done in
sections 1 to 4 Inclusive it will pro
tect all but the lower part of the city
which would be affected only by
back water from below the levee.
As the material available for the
construction of the levee will not
make a water tight embankment,
there will be some seepage through
It and also through the gravel under
the levee. The seepage water can be
carried off through the surface
ditches on the sides of the streets to
the lower portion of the city: When
the levee Is extended to the railroad
below the city a drainage pipe should
be placed through the railroad em
bankment to let this water out.
The water from the mill race Is dis
charged back Into the river through
a masonry culvert under the levee at
station 69-75. The cost of putting in
an iron, gate at the lower end of the
culvert to prevent the high water
backing up through the culvert will
be about S225.

as follows:
Section No. 1 (present location)

of the national irrigation congress to
be held there In September, and every
effort Is being made to care for the
welfare of the delegates," said Montie
It. Owlnn, chairman of the executive
committee, this afternoon.
Mr. Gwlnn, who Is now soon to be
a resident of Pendleton, having pur
chased an Interest In the Savings
bank, came down from Boise, this
morning. However, he will spend but
a day here, after which ho will return
to Idaho, where his presence will be
required constantly until after the
great congress is held. Regarding
the prospects for the congress he
said:
"We have already received notices
of the appointment of over 1200 dele
gates from the various states of the
west, and more are now being named
dally. There is every Indication of u
large attendance. Colorado will be
on hand with a large delegation,
headed by the governor, as will also
California. An unusual feature of the
coming meeting Is the Interest shown,
by people of the far east. One man
f"om .Maine' wrote but a few days ago
saying he would be present and others
from -all ovor the eastern states have
shown a similar Interest."
"At the headquarters In Boise
place are now being found for visit
ors' who will be there during the con-
gross and over 1000 rooms have al
ready been registered with the secre'i
tary.
Viniitllla Should Re There.
"At the coming congress there will
be a grand opportunity for tho people
of Pendleton and Umatilla county,
declares Mr. Gwlnn. "This county Is
now on the verge of a great develop
ment and It will be worth while for
tlio citizens to attend the congress
and meet with those present from the
vice president down."
