Considerable interest has been aroused among the property own ers of this city looking to tho m stallation of water works and a sssssvor rfffi'ss sew Hums. A special meeting tno council was nuiu iuwuny 11 M - I..I.1 Til.. ln evening when M. L. Lewis model a proposition m connection with tno springs no owns west ui u u. Archie McGowan also had a pro position or rather a suggestion as to the possibility of bringing water from the Parker springs about eight miles north. So favorably impressed were tho council that it was decided to call a mass meeting of citizens at the Commercial Club rooms Thursday evening to discuss the matter and ask for an expression as to the advisibility of securing the services of a competent engi neer to thoroughly investigate the various sources of water supply. The meeting Thursday evening was not attended by as repre sentative a body of property owneis as the importance of the move would justify, yet quite a number was present. Mayor Clevenger called the meeting to order and stated its purpose. Several had visited the Parker HMnn nliMMOflnif O Vt A ll'AM nolnfl I to express themselves. Assessor I Lomrf Freres, is practically as Donegan stated it was his opin-.sved m Eastern Oregon, asyn- ion that these springs would fur- nish sufficient water for present and other springs were available for future. He pointed out the necessity of amending tne city charter before we could expect to install a system of this kind, as at present we can bond for iiiiv jiji mill iiii .1111:11 iiui ifun.a i " t l Dr. H. M unirnn in invunii iiiuMf i j ii i i the same line, stating we nnvl the water works and sewerage, but feared the expense would be too great to avail ourselves of the gravity system suggested and that possibly a pumping plant would be most feasible. Among others who discussed the importance of immediate action were Councilmen White and Young, Dr. L. E. Hibbard, A. J. Irwin and R. B. Post All of them desired tho matter be investigated and report made of feasibility and cost of various supplies. Mr. Donegon introduced the following resolution which was adopted by a rising vete: "Re solved that the city council be requested to employ a competent engineer to investigate and re port on a water system for the city of Burns." Archie McGowan was asked for his views and he stated that tho resolution of Mr. Donegan covered all that the meeting could expect to accomplish, but since others had expressed them- A SWELL DRESSER Can Examine the very latest Spring and Summer Lines All New in the very Fanciest Scotch Samples Shirts and all other articles for Ladies and Gentlemen The Only Place SCHENK BROS. THE MERCHANT TAILORS AND OUTFITTERS Burns, Oregon Odd Fellows' Building solves ho desired to stato that ho favored n gravity system. Even though tho first cost might bo greater tho operation would prove much cheaper than a pumping plant and bo most satisfactory in tho end. Ho had secured somo figures on tho possible cost of piping tho water from tho Par ker springs and said six-inch wood pipo capable of carrying sufficient water for 1500 popula tion would cost less than $19,000 for ton miles and with $5000 for covering it would bo tho entire cost of laying it into Burns. M. L. Lewis stated that wo should get tho engineer to make estimates of flow and possible cost IMPORTANT MEN HERE. John E. Burchard of tho firm of Burchard & Hubbard, of St. Paul, and W. P. Davidson, treas urer of tho Northwest Coloniza tion Co., arrived here last Tues day in company with F. S. Ricder and they havo gone all over tho It is re- ported authority that . j.i. u i((l , i:ii.. -i,i ol fnr -- SSTdGmnt JJ Th(j Tes-Herald Mili i,;D AWort from those interested, it is tho general report that should they find tho land as represented tho purchase will be mado. They go on west from here to inspect land. This is one of tho most import ant deals ever mado in Eastern Orocron and mean3 tho rapid de velopment of tho interior. Tho gentlemen connected with this i deal aro among tho most success- ' f ul colonist onranizations in the entire United States and thoy have tho means to take caro of the vast tract and if necessary finance irrigation projects that will increaso the productiveness of tho land. The Orcgonian of recent date says regarding the purchase: Sale of all the land involved in the big land grant of tho Willam stte Valley & Cascade Mountain Road Company, now owned by the French banking concern of ?" "?P u,a "u" I John E. Burchard, of St Paul, i and A. O. Robertson, of Mine- apolis, being tho prospective pur chasers. Telegraphic information re ceived from Ontario last night ! was to the effect that tho Min .... - lJ-i mah IinI rlAnVQlfnl fl iiuuijuiia men uuu uvuvwtn-v i j iCnecK ior ww,ww m tno first National Bank of that placo to bind the deal in case tho land after examination shall bo found as represented. The Eastern representatives are known to bo personal agents of J. J. Hill, and the move to purchase the holdings of the Willamette Valley & Cascade Mountains Road is said to be to muko connection with tho Gil more & Pittsburg through Cen tral and Eastern Oregon to Port land and the Pacific Coast While no public announcement is mado relative to the terms of purchase, it is learned on tho very best authority that they in clude a thorough inspection of the road's holdings from Onta rio into the Harney Valley coun try, where the field notes, sur veys and plats of the company will bo inspected and checked up. If found as represented tho pur chasers will close tho deal by making a second payment of $500,000. Tho total purchase price is reported to be above $2,000,000. Colonel C. E. S. Wood, of Portland, is tho agent for tho owners of tho land, and is at Ontario representing thorn. Tho prospective purchasers havo look ed ovor a portion of tho holding. According to a statoment mado last night in Ontario by Mr. Wood, thoy expressed satisfac tion after their investigation. RAILROAD AND IRRIGATION MEN. D. H. Ashton, said to bo a son of Chief Engineer Ashtpn of tho Short Lino who has chargo of construction work nt Vale, S. II. Osborn, also connected with tho Short Lino Engineering corpB, and L. Colo, mado a quiot visit to our city tho first of this wcok. Tho Times-Horald did not learn tho oxnet purposo of tho visit of theso men, but every thing points to somo railroad ac tivity in tho near futuro by tho Harriman people It has boon stated several times that tho Harriman lino would begin con struction west from Vale in tho near futuro and no doubt thoy wero hero looking into tho right-of-wny matters. They stated thoy would return in about two weeks. Mr. Colo was particularly in terested in irrigation projects and discussed reclamation possi bilities with thoso who aro more or less familiar with such work. Tho Silver Creek project seem ed to appeal to him and ho went into tho matter to considerable length with a largo number of tho land owners of that district who aro in tho city on court matters. Ho stated most positi vely that if tho land owners of the district desired it he could secure the capital to put in tho reservoir and irrigate the Silver Creek valfoy. Mr. Colo used to be in this country several years ago where ho bought beef, and is more or less familiar with conditions. Perhaps moro can bo learned upon their next visit which ia promised in a short time. PLEAD OUILTY TO LARCENY.

Tho old fashioned way of dosing a weak stomach, or stimulating tho Heart or Kidneys is all wrong Dr. Shoop first pointed out this error. This is why his prescrip tion Dr. Shoop's Restorative is directed entirely to the cause of theso ailments-tho weak in side or controlling nerves. It isn't so difficult, says Dr. Shoop, to strengthen a weak Stomach, Heart or Kidneys, if one goes at it correctly. Each insido organ has its controlling or insido nerve When theso nerves fail, then theso organs must surely falter. These vital truths aro leading druggists everywhere to dispense and recommend Dr. Shoop's Re storative. Test it a few days, and sco! Improvement will promptly and surely follow. Sold by Reed Bros.
