Rip-rapping River Night and Day
The Burlington Railway rip rap gang north of the big bridge works day and night to stay ahead of river erosion, laying 40 cars of material daily and planning spur tracks to Pacific City. If Heaton's river cut reaches 50 feet more, work will shift there, promising change in the river's course upon completion. Farmers face little damage as river recedes, and a bumper valley crop is forecast.
