' Farmers Organize District, to Finance Undertaking to Increase Fer tility of 10,000 'Acres. SPARTA, Jan. 27. The Sparta Ir rigation district was organised at a special election held here Saturday, with only fourteen votes cast against the project. B. F. Keist, Glen Maey and I). M. Dill, all of Sparta, were elected direc tors and they expect to push the Work to the construction stage as rapidly as possible. Rhea Luper, an irrigation engineer of La Grande, has made an examina tion of the project and his ' report shows that it will be posible to bring under irrigation more than ten thou sand acres of land, which will be the equal ""productivity of the best land in Baker county. All of the land to be irrigated u: situated on the benches between Eag!c creek and !oosc creek and a largo part of it is now being dry-farmed. The water for irrigating will bo ob tained from Eagle creek, which is the largest tributary of Powder river. It is expected that a preliminary survey of the district will be made at nn early date, in order to determine where the irrigation ditches will lie and to get an estimate of the cost of construction. With that information as a basis to work on a bond issue will likely be made by the district to finance the project, in which some state or federal aid is also expected. It is considered likely that Mr. Luper will be retained by the direr tors to take charge of the work of ' construc tion. 0. A. C. HAS EGG LAYING CHAMPION , COHVALLIS! Jan.

HOSTILE TO ACT. First Twq Weeks of Session Show but Little Work Accomplished One Bill Through. SALEM, Ore., Jan. 27. With two weeks of the Thirtieth legislative as- ombly chalked off the board, the state's lav makers have but little to show for the fortnight spent in the halls of the capitol. So far but one measuro has run the gauntlet of both houses and received the approval of Governor Withycombe. This is the emergency measure creating the sol diers and sailors relief commission and appropriating $100,000 for emer gency relief work. Although the Howell bill, creating tho Oregon Volunteer Guard, passed the senate without n dissenting vote, it is predicted it will meet with strong opposition in the lower branch. A goodly number of legislators see in this measure an adroit attempt to abolish tho Oregon state militia. If the Home Guard units, under tho offi cial title of Oregon Volunteer Guard, are legalized as proposed in the How- 11 measures, its sponsors, it is as serted, will make a fight to withhold all appropriations for the state mili tia, on the ground that the Volunteer Guard can take care of all emergen cies, and without cost to the state, which the militia might be called upon to settle. f Howell Measure Criticized. The Howell measure, however, con tains a clause stipulating that mem bers of the Volunteer Guard cannot be called to duty by tho governor unless they volunteer for such work. This, say thoso who will oppose the bill in the house this week, ties the hands of the governor completely in case a seri-i ous emergency should arise requiring the presence of a large body of troops: in some section of the state. The of ficers and men of the Volunteer Guard are under the direct supervision of tho sheriffs of their respective counties. 'Several other important measures are due to come up in the senate this week for final passage before being sent over to the houso fon approval. The committee on-' assessments and taxation Is expected to submit a re port on the Pierce bill providing for an income tax, the funds to be devoted to road purposes. Mr, Pierce's other measure, a referendum bill providing for an additional levy of one mill for the state highway" fund, also is expect ed to precipitate spirited debate. Much Legislation Started. The house has made fairly good progress in wading through its bills, now having twenty-six house and three senate bills on calendar for third read ing and final passage for today. It also hus about 132 bills in committees which will in the main be reported out mark by the conclusion of this week, should see a mammoth grist of them disposed of. Predictions are made that the bills will go well over the 400 mark hy the conclusion of next week when the legiKtaturc is expected to re main in session through Saturday morning, at least.
