I ' Blarney Jewett of the biological : survey in making a trip to vbslt the I government trappers in the north j west In a letter written to Inspector Averill, he told of the various anl ! mala trapped and shot by one hunt I er, and ended by saying, "Caught an i auto at Umatilla." Averil wrote baci I at once. "Please specify in what size trap you caught it and whut bait you used." A lione-Iry iialiiid. (N'ote: .Should be sung while standing on the brink of the river.) Oh, the bone-dry days are on us. The bone-dry days are here. What will I do for whisky now. What will I do for beer? Already now, my lips are parched.

Again are we asked to supply names for initials, and sometimes we.fin.1 ourself hardput to make good on out promise nut In time we hope to in. crease tw output of our factory. Innumerable requests have been re- ceived to fill out the initials of Mayor J. A. Best. Personally we have a good deal of sympathy for any man navln? the initials J. A. for they Just naturally suggest an animal of the mule family the name of which we rafrain from uttering from a sense of propriety. At that the mayor Is no more unfortunate than J. A Blakely or the two J. A. Fees. "What do the J. F. of J. p. Rnb'n son stand for?" asks a correspondent They might stand for many thines. such as Jelly Fl-h or juicy Fruit, but knowing him as we do w should sav that Jolly- Fellow would be more fit and proper. And again we are asked Vo fill in the W. t,. of w. L. Thompson. His imperial cast of countenance and the fact that he ia sometimes referred to as Kaiser Bill would lead us to be- ! lieve that War Lord would not be in appropriate, and by this we do not mean to reflect upon his patriotism in the least. We have done our best to fill out the names of the city fathers. Ralph Folsom belongs in the same class as Abraham Lincoln and is. therefore, immune from our treatment. There's C. E. Penland. C E-, as everyone knows, stands for christian Endeavor. As for R. F. Kirkpatrick, his baron ial acres, justifies us in interpreting his initials as Rich Farmer. The H. J. of Ha J, Taylor might be High Jinks or Hairy Jaw or Huge Joke or Honest John. Take your choice. council man Murphy's initials are E. J. and the only way we can account for them is that they stand for Economy Jar. We are not thinking of his ca pacity as a container but of his posi tion as chairman of the finance com mittee. The D. D. of Councilman Phelp's name must stand for Dare Devil, for in the library fight he has rushed in where other business men have feared to tread. Councilman Vaughan's J. L. can be extended into Juicy Lemon, There remains of rhe eight counciimen but Joe H. Ell and we would not tamper with his name unless it would be to cancel the J. and K. of Joe. ' A Boue-Dry Iloneluad. There were many little tragedies in connection with the closing of the season on two-quart shipments, some unfortunates had shipments in the express offices but their 2s days did not expire until the day after fhe bone-dry went into effect. However, of all the little tragedies the one which touched us fhe most was that In which Hugh Bell was Implicated. Hugh, not being a drinking man, didn'tl know much about ordering n shipment. He had been told that Joel B. Frazier is a popular brand of whiskey, so in sanding in his order, he wrote, "Send me two quarts whis key, Joel B. Frazier." Evidently an inexperienced shipping clerk got hold of the order and expressed it out to Joel B. Frazier, Helix, Oregon. Now the express agent at Helix knew Hugh and of course he couldn't get away with signing the name of Frazier. We suggested that he get Frank Frazier to sign up for it but Hugh says. "I can't see where that would better the situation." I A Sad r-TCNlft-aiwnt. Prank Whetstone was seen pawine; the air and breathing hard laat Tups day. Chief Gurdane asked the mean ing of his distress, "i know I've pot shipment at the express office." he aid "but darned1 if I can remember the name I used."

The purposes ' fur which a district may be organized under section 1 of the new measure. are for irrigation, betterment, recon ; struct ion extension, purchase, oper ation or maintenance of work or for the assumption, as principal or prtiar antor of the indebtedness on account of district lands of the I'nHed States I under the reclamation laws.

I GOEY'S llll be able to act with considerable more dispatch, especially in view of the ex flinple of the county government, conducted by three commissioners. The directors may be elected either at Inrjie or from divisions of the dist rict. Clerks of election have been eliminated, leaving the entire wok of the conduct of elections, to the Judges. The treasurer of the county where the petition for the district is filed is made, by the new act, the treasurer ex-offlcio of the district. Kiieim-or Must Approve Work. In the section referring- to the making of plans for the district, more leeway has been given to the State Engineer, in that, as the law will read, he Is not obliged to definitely npprove or reject the plans. The sec tion providing for the letting of con tracts h;is been amended so that, where the work was to be done by a competent Irrigation engineer and approved by the board of directors of the district. It must now have the ap proval of the state engineer. This provision was made In order, as the author explained, that the work should have the supervision of a dis interested party. Section IX of the new la- Is drawn for the purpose of making the dist rict law conform to the requirements of the I". S. Reclamation Act, and attorneys for the Reclamation Ser vice have coperated in its prepara tion. Mr. Laauregaard stated that both the settlers and the government men are anxious to secure the adop tion of the provisions of this section in order to overcome serious difficul ties which have arisen with reference t the ofterntton of the projects midr the Water I'sers Association plan They will have no bearing on district organisations other than those under the Reclamation Act but will permit them to tak advantage of the act IT they desfre.

Another section in which the Re clamation Service p Interested is that which provides for an election for the execution of a contract with the t'nited States, Uttle change has been made In the bonding provisions except such as will permit the district to bond for any purpose required, rather than merely for the purpose of con struction or purchase of works.

Into which all assessments shall be paid until there is sufficient n the fund to pay the next install ment of principal and interest. Method of A4Nessiiient- In order to avoid the situation by which, by equal assessment on every acre of land. It would be impossible to secure partial water l ights within district, except by purchase of these riKhts by cash or bonds of the dist rict, provision is made in the new law vherebv the district may purchase the water riiht. rights of way and other property, required and allow a corresponding decrease In theamount the owner" of said water right or pro pertj would be required to pay. Pro vision is made by which persons se curing water rights through partiallv constructed works shall pay the main tenance on the same Instead of dis tributing the main tens nee charge overt he entire district. Assessments are collected in the same manner f county and state taxes are collected and by the same agents. A requirement is made that a voter in the district tmiM own two or more acres in the district. The require ment was made In .rdr to prevent owners of city lots within a district from voting. Holders of incomplete titles to government land within the district are also allowed to vote. The remaining sections of the law have not been changed except that provision has been made for the con test of an election which has failed and. in accordance with court decis ions on the fcobject. the right of as signment of water has been eliminated.
