The act of 1903 Tepealed the act of IMS,
under which the companies were organ

that the filing of the certificate of inten

Implicated 111 the robbery of Victor Berg

Roach, a companion of the game age, left
town hurriedly a few days .ago. Youqg
Thompson was arrested for spending tq$
raucn money sua ior oeing too strong 10
work.
Charley Roach, who Is said to be the
principal In the case, met with an accl
dent three weeks ago, cutting the nail of
the right thumb and right forefinger,
leaving conspicuous marks by which the
detectives hope to identify him.
When arrested Thompson had 528, which
he admitted was parf of the money stolen
from Bergman, but he claimed that an
other boy, who had since left Seaside, did
the stealing and gave him $25 of the
money. While little credence Is given
Thompson's story, the Sheriff thinks that
he had accomplices, and that several
other crimes of a almllar nature that
have been committed at Seaside recently.
-among them the burglarising of the rail
way aepot, can be traced to them. The
boy will probably be given a. preliminary
hearing on Monday.

Whether there Is a sufficient body of va
cant land in this county to justify the ex?
pendlture of apy portion of the 51,000.000
set apart by the United States Govern
ment for Irrigation schemes in Oregon, Is
a matter yet to be determined; Mr. Whis
tler to the contrary notwithstanding-.
The aim and object of thl seral-annual
meeetlng of the state association was not
espeelallly for the purpose of Inducing the
Government to expend money In this or
any other portion of the state, but for the
express purpose of giving the searchers
after Information1, practical lllustratlos
of iho benefits derived from Irrigation, by
showing them what has been accomplished
by that means in this county.
For example, within a. few miles of this
city Is a well-established farm which a
year ago was raw sagebrush land.. The
owners began early last season by clearing
off the brush, digging ditches, cultivating
and seeding the ground, and from the
money received from the first year's crop
they paid for the land and all the expense
of clearing and cultivating and . had a
handsome balance left
In the opinion of some of our experi
enced Irrigators It is. possible for some of
the theoretical Government Irrigation ex
perts to learn something about the prac
tical side ot Irrigation by visiting some
of the Irrigated farms in the Vicinity of
this city. " '
A majority of the delegates 6 the state
convention from this county, and a great
er portion of the members of the county
association deprecate and greatly regret
the hasty action of the local executive
committee in consenting to the abandon
ment of the aeml-annual session of the
state association.
So far as known the state executive
committee has taken no aptlon on the
proposition to forego the session.. .The
matter seems to- have been allowed to go
by defcuut at state headquarters also. It
