Settlers Needed for
At last the keynote to the irrigation conditions in Oregon has
. been sounded by the securities commission. It took some time for
the board to determine what many others already knew, namely
that what we need in Oregon settlers for the irrigated lands we
- now have, rather than develop more project,
i, The Portland Chamber of Commerce, the state Chamber of
Commerce and many individualssuch as Arthur Spencer, of the
(, O.-W. ; Ren Dey, of the Southern Pacific, including other stud
J ents of state af fail's, have realized this is the great drawback for
some time. '
J; ' How to get settlers on irrigated lands has pu.Jcd the rail
roads, worried every irrigation project board of directors and forc
L' cd all agencies acting upon the subject to throw up their hands,
t . Reclaiming irrigated lands is a job for the stalwart and is no
tll undertaking for milk-fed humanity. It takes grit, courage and
S self-denial to go to a sage-brush ranch and put it under water, tam
c ing the land so that it will produce. It is like every other natural
y. resource after it is found, the work is only begun. The prospec
c tor finds a vein of gold-bearing ore and immediately his associates
t throw up' their hands and think they are rich. Hut the work of
!. developing that ore body, of building tunnels, tracks and trams and
! mills is a long drawn out process wherein the weak shiver and quit.
; The same is true with irrigated land. The .shout goes up that
the dam is built and peace and plenty will reign in a district here
r tofore occupied by the coyote. The community holds a celebration,
J but the work is only started. From that time on horny hands must
battle to get the desired results. It takes more than money to
" do it it takes muscle and brains.
People buy irrigation securities from beautiful prospectuses

the land can't meet their taxes and water charges, they become
discouraged and denounce irrigation.
It is the same old story of expectancy without mature judg
ment. The state board can well turn its attention to colonizing the
irrigated lands we now have rather than work to bring in new pro
jects, only to have them sparsely settled and the old bankruptcy
proceedings following almost every individual who tries the game
of taming the wild lands. If there is any state encouragement to bn
given it should be bestowed upon the cottier, for upon him and him
alone depends the success of any project.

If the world court plan of President Harding is right, and we
.reserve our humble opinion on this subject, but we say, if it is
right it is so near the League of Nations plan which President
Wilson advocated that it can at least be called a half-brother.
' Yet we find President Wilson, from his brick home on S street
in Washington, D, C denouncing the Harding plan just as ve
hemently as Harding denounced the League of Nations.

Quick work on the part of the sheriffs office prevented the big
