J. HlUleburn of Rosebtirg. who has charge of building several sec tions of the new Pacific highway. Mayor Gates has practically made up his mind as to whom he will appoint to the vacancy and discussed : tho matter Informally with the city coun cil last evening. The resignation comes as a great surprise and Mr. Arnspiger's leaving will leave a large hole In the city government which it will be difficult to fill because of his engineering and practical ability and thoro familiar ity with the city departments and af fairs In general. He became city engineer in 1913, and some time later assumed charge of tho. street department. In 1914 he took over the water department, and since last fall has also been - serving as city electrician. . For months past in ad dition he has acted as city purchas ing agent. , , Mr. Arnspiger who has been draw ing & salary of $200 a month from the city will greatly benefit finan cially in hiB new position. Besides he has for some time desired to change his field of work. Thorough- ly In love with this community, he will retain his home here, but Mrsv Arnspiger will leave in a few days with the children to visit relatives in eastern Oregon for the summer. As soon as he can get away Mr. Arnspiger ' will take charge of the Pacific highway construction work over Sexton mountain not far from Grants Pass for Contractor Hilde burn. He expects to be in the city oft and on for the next two weeks to help his successor get his bearings.
