Fourth That for irrisatlon the amount uf ixater used shall not exceed a certain fixed quantity per acre. Fifth That this right shall be appurtenant to the land irriRated and none other; that the transfer of the land carries with it the right, and apart from the land the right cannot be transferred except "by due process of law. i"lxth That when a ditch waters land not the property of the ditch-owner, the right at tache to the land on which the water it used and not to the ditch. The owner of the lands trrica'ted making the proof of appropriation and the certificate being issued-to him. No certificate of appropriation should be Issued to a dltc-owner for the watering of lands not hi own. The ditch-owner under our present laws la a common carrier and ia subject to regulation a cmch. Seventh That the date of beginning con struction and date of completion should be specified in the permit, depending upon the magnitude of the work, and compliance there with, dt fined as due diligence, without regard to intent. Where due diligence is shown, the date of priority to relate back to the date of application. Where diligence is lacking the .priority to date from the time of use. Eighth That a system be provided whereby the present vested right may eventually be determined, and where so determined, re corded, in order of priority. That provision be rna't for distribution in tunes of ecareity in accordance with these rights. Ninth That, the state refuse permits to the ue of water where ft Is clearly apparent that the limit of the beneficial ue to which each stream can be put is reached.

A report on the Publication Society was given by Rev. F. H. Adams, pastor of the First Baptist Church of McMinnville. which occupied the time until 11 o'clock, when Rev. E. R.

CONSPIRACY ATPINE Others Are to Be Arrested for Willard Moody's Murder. WOMAN SHOWS IN THE CASE Jealousy Is Supposed to Have Been the Motive for tne Treacherous Killing of Wealthy Baker County Rancher. BAKER CITY. Or.,. Oct 18. (Spe cial.) The murder of Willard Mooay is now believed to have been the re sult of a conspiracy, and more arrests may be expected to follow that ot Alex Widdowson. the Pine saloon keeper who Is now in Jail here charged with firing the shot that killed Willard Moody, and than stamping- the face of his victim beyond recognition. Viddowson"s arrest followed the fer reting" out of evidence in the case by Charles K. Hyde -and W. M. Strayer, the attorneys employed by the mur dered mau's father to search for and bring1 the murderer to justice. The ev idence against the man is for the most part circumstantial, but there is other evidence, it is said, that will connect Kim positively with the most horrible killing- in Baker County in years. The theory is that more than one party wa3 concerned In the conspiracy that planned the murder, but that Wid dowson, who was thought to be Moody's friend, did the deed because he was less likely to be suspected than the others; that Widdowson either ac companied Moody to the scene of the shooting or lay in wait for him and treacherously tired as his friend ap proached. A motive for the murdor is found in jealousy. The presence of a woman in the. case is admitted by the officers. Who she is they refuse to discuss. Widdowson "s arrest followed the running to earth of several clews. Others suspicfonfd were all aMe to prove an alibi. The accused man re fuses to discuss the case, other than in just a general statement sriven out by him in the presence of his attor ney. '"It is all a horrible mistake. I am innocent." "And,' comments Judge Sam White, who will defend the man, "we will prove it at the trial." Little Chance for Students. SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. IS. The Fed eral authorities are now investigating a concern called the Interstate School, Incorporated, which is inducing young men to part with considerable money in the hope of securing- appointments as immigration inspectors in the serv ice of the United States Government.

Snyder, the secre tary of the Civil Service Commission, declared that no examinations fof the office of immigration inspector have been announced by the commission, and as there are now 1379 eligibles on' the list ready to he certified for ap pointment should any vacancies occur, it is not likely that any examinations will be held for some time to come. At present there is not a single vacancy in the immigration service for the position of inspector. Boy Killed While limiting. ARLINGTON, Or., Oct. IS. Fred Sal vester, the 15-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Salvestcr, of Blalock, Or., who started out hunting Tuesday morn Ving and had failed to return, was found dead in a canyon about one mile souihwest of that place at 6 o'clock this morning by the searching party which started from here last night.

Labor Commissioner Hoff Says Self -Kespecting Girls Are Driven to "Work in Other Lines. SALrKM. Or., Oct. IS. (Special) In his biennial report, advance sheets of which arc now being issued, Labor Commissioner O. P. Hoff gives some attention to the subject of "domestic help," which !s now troubling the housewives of Portland. In Hoff's opinion the question of wages or hours of walk is of far Jess consequence than the attitude of the employer toward her employe. The fact that a hired grirl is looked upon as an inferior being is what causes difficulty in se curing girls. Mr. Hoff says in his re port upon this subject: The domestic question Is becoming more difficult of solution There Is no question in the mind of the Commissioner that, with the feelings which exist, in which the word "servant" figures prominently, the desire for work of this kind will continue to grow less with intellectual advancement. The feelings with some employers of domestic help in dicate this, upon the theory that the more ignorant the girl the better "servant" she makes. This is a condition to be deplored, and at least halt the responsibility for it mUBt fall on the mistress of the household. It Is, or should be. the ambition of all to advance, intellectually, financially and so cially, and of these none is of greater value to the feminine mind than the social advan tage. Kill that ambition in a woman and you destroy the best quality that is in her. With such an ambition, how can we ex pect any girl to make a choice of an oc cupation that, by common consent, or maybe by the supercilious action of the employer, has been consigned to a lower standard in the social scale? True It is that, in hiring a girl to do domestic work, we expect her to wait on the table, when necessary, and to attend to the needs of the household, but after the work is done and done satis factorily what reason is there that the girl who is considered . neat and clean enough to handle our food should not receive the same consideration, socially, that the same girl would receive were she serving us with her pencil, the typewriter, showing us goods from behind the counter or teaching our children? Why call her "servant" when perhaps, from no fault, of her, a stamp of inferior ity has been placed on the word. We talk abcut our "stenographer," "clerks" and so on; why not speak of ur "cook." "house maid." "chambermaid" or "nursemaid," as the case may be, with the same degree of respect ? It may be said that it is nonsensical to argue that there Is any difference in a title. That may be. but the fact remains that names often have their eting- The domestic problem is simply reduced to this: It Is the Nation's duty to stimu late ambition and self -pride; to raise to the highest degree the intellectual and moral standard of every citizen within its border. With intellectual advancement comes a na tural desire to a consideration of equality. The mistress must stop considering 4he girl she hires to do her work any lower in the human scale than she does her own daugh ter, when she performs the same work with equal intellectual ability, or the time will come when she will have to do her own housework or employ a man instead. The woman who holds the health of the family in her hands should be no inferior quantity. That many of the girls hired for domestic duties are care It ss, incompetent, indolent and in many ways annoy their employers is a matter of fact, but this is only a na tural result. With the work considered de grading, a large per cent of the more am bitious and intellectual girls are driven into other pursuits, leaving a demand for do mestics .so great that those who condescend to perform he work have a perfect monop oly of that branch of the labor market which they, with a genuine touch of hu man nature, seldom fail to take advantage of. This question should have the preferred place in the efforts of the women of Ore gon to better economic conditions; It is within their domain.
