IRRIGATION
SIGHT FOR PASS
Censlructlon Contractor Will Arrive
"SRils Wccw All of Ranchers Have
Wot as Yet Signed Up for Water
flights.
Notwithstanding the fact tunt Iho
ranchers clown the river hnve not
' -rifiiicd up for tho gravity ditch, yot
. I tit is likely that tho work on the irri-
j j j ration project will comraenco at onco,
I rays the Obsorver of Grants Puss.
1 1 -P. A. Williams, who has charRo of
i -ik& affairs of the Roruo River Irri-
j .Ration & Power company's business
i kerc, went to Salem last evening and
i , mill meet the contractor there nud
i accompany him to this city either to-
, aBorrow or next daj
I Although the ranchers down the
3ver have not signed up, yet many
f them have signified their willing
Taese to take water if the ditch is put
5b. Mr. Williams states that ho is
' I --oing to put in tho project, which
-eertainly ought to bo good news to
-tic people of this locality.
Many rumors have been afloat tho
vast week as to whether the pro
ject would go in or not, but from
enversation with Jlr. Williams this
'week it is surmised that with the
TBoncy that he and his associates
-iavo already invested that they enn
aot let the project go by default, and
wken people see that an irrigation
project is being constructed on a
sound basis they will come to the
dxont and sign up to take water.
He and the contractor will be here
in the next day or two and will go
ver the entire project, inspect the
dam site nt Savage rapids and in
vesiigato the territory to be irrigat
ed and the holdings of the company.
.After this examination it is snid that
ike machinery for the building of the
4am and construction of the ditches
mrill be ordered shipped nt once. All
:his machinery is now ready to be
loaded on tho cars and it will only
"ake a short time for it to arrive
iere.
All the surveys for the ditches
kave"been made and are practically
-complete and all that is needed is
-to make a few corrections as the
-work proceeds. Mr. Williams and
lis associates have spent a great
-deal of money on these surveys, and
-ike -work has been thorough and is
1 4he most complete survey ever made
Sot the purpose of irrigation in this
