GEO. W. SPERRY. REWARD! The electric transmission line re cently completed and in operation be tween Heppner and lone, the lives of the operators of that line, and of the public who travel the streets and roads which the line uses, have been through the malice or ignorance of someone, placed in serious danger to property and life. The line carries an 11000-volt current. Contact with that current would be instant death. Safety from that contact depends up on the perfect insulation where the wires are fastened to the insulators, and a continuous unbroken wire line. A broken insulator releases the wire and it drops to the pole, which at once becomes a carrier of the cur rent. A pole charged is dangerous to anything coming in contact with it, a broken line coming in contact with anything living means death. We con structed the line along accepted standards of safety to life; if any ac cident occurs through the act of any one else they and not we are liable for it. It is for the purpose of safe guarding the public that the laws of Oregon impose a severe penalty upon those who molest or disturb the safe operation of lines of this character; shooting at or breaking insulators or breaking wires may bring on ser ious danger to innocent operators at the generating station and the pub lic. Disturbing the operation or loss of property is the least of attending evils. We have our operators and the public to safe-guard. Therefore, we will pay Fifty Dollurs Reward for any information that will lead to the identification, arrest and conviction of anyone injuring, tampering with or molesting any part of our trans mission line, and we give notice that prompt and effective prosecution of any offender, irrespective of age or sex will follow any such act or acts.
