Sternberg Dredge in Howe Ditch Starts Work After Some Delay.

Digging was again resumed by the Sternberg dredge on the Howe ditch south of town Wednesday ahd today and Friday the range line bridge will be taken out to permit the dredge to pass through. In approaching the bridge Wednesday the ice gorge was forced through the false work uhder the bridge and out. This will probably necessitate the blasting out of the dam a half mile below the bridge. The dredge will have a little cleaning up to do on its way down stream and it will probably be about two weeks before it reaches the Hoover bridge. A couple of weeks more will be required to reach the Kahler bridge and then there will be a mile or splid digging before the ditch is completed. The dredge at the Gangloff farm has finally all been taken out of the river and stored ready for shipment.
