Binqeh Hermann. "Washington, D.O., March 25. on. F. M. "Wllklns, Eugene, Oregen: ' I huvo secured a largo allowance for lio Sluslaw jetty work. An early nd- Durnment of congress Is assured and rill make, money for tho appropria tion available at an early date, which Vll make It possible to resume work wi tho Jotty In tho near future. Yours truly. Binqek Hermann. r In securing the passago of these Mia Mr. Hermann has scored a point W victory for Oregon. Tho Improvoe- acnt of tho Willamette and tho com- Motion of tho work now partly finished it Sluslaw will derive great benefits or this section and Lane county in articular will rojolco over tho success Mr. Hermann. Tho improvement ! the "Willamette is Just now u point ' most vital Interest to tho people of lis section. Tho plans for Its Ini- ivement between this city and Ilar- isburg, as reported by tho govern- aent engineers Is as follows, the work i bo commenced at this city and con- inuo down tho river as far as Port- nd: . At Skinner's bar, a dam to be con ducted. K'AtGlllesplobar, lower down, tho )ay is chuto is to be closed by a de- sting dike, and a bank rovctmentis bo made. At Scatter bar another dam is to i made. rAt Brown's island tho channels ending to the left of the island are to K! closed by dams 2700 feet In length. I? l.mn fn tre, .1 irl -.11,. nnno i.i iuu, lav, juu nuu .iu-j-iuiiu iahiim lams and deflecting dikes are to be aade. r. These are tho chief works of a pei- aanent nature, besides dredging that i to be done between Eugene and larrlsburg, and tho cost for the per- lanent works alone will bo $21,500. The project Is to secure at low water Uor4 feet to Corvallls, and from there to Eugene 2 to 3 feet at lowest mter To assist tho work and to keep tho river cleared by snagging and dredge ng, a new boat larger and stronger than tho snagboat Corvallls must be ullt,which shall have new appliances lor snagging and dredging and scrap ing of bars. The sum of 810,000 is es timated for this boat, and It forms a irt of the gross estimate of the work from Portland to Eugene, P The fact that the snagboat, Corval lis Is now a craft of the past, will ike the demand for a new boat ini; Jratlve. The bill provides that the Improve lents of the Willamette shall be done by contract, which means that all tho 'red tape government work will bo done away with and the work com- I menced Immediate and pushed to a Bpccdy completion. Tho Improvement of Sluslaw bay, Lane county's lfarbor, Is a subject also of spcclul Interest. The Jetty work Is now only partially finished and as it now stands U of hut little use, but n few more appropriations will com , pletc the Improvements which will make It one of the best harbor on the coast.
