ARRIVES.
To Investigate The Willamette at

aj. Mclndoe, chief engineer in
charge of the U. S. service in the

of his corps, arrived this afternoon, by
way of-Corvalli8, from Portland, at1
2:55, and were met at the depot by
Manager Dasent, Judge Stewart
and others and taken across the
river for an inspection of the bank at
this city, ordered investigated by Gen
eral Marshall, from the head office at
Washington, with a view of an appro
priation for a revetment, for the needed
protection of the river at this city.
tv,;,, invoaticAtinn has been made by
Maj. Mclndoe's predecessors, but about
the time they were ready to act. anoth
er man was placed in charge of the N.
W. service, and the business has to be
a situation not at all
creditable to the organization of the
service. , ....
In securing this new investigation
Senator Bourne is entitled to credit.
He acted at once and very promptly,
also writing in full personally, ana not
ing in connection with it the efforts be
ing made to secure free locks at Ore

Letters were also received from ben

offering to do everything possible for
the project; but not a word from Con

Action is what is needed, and Senator
Bourne seems to be the man r who has
it, at least in this project.
