PARK OFFERED
ON BEAR CREEK
Attorney Phlpps Will Deed Two
Acres to the City-Road to the
Tract Must Be Secured.
MOEE DISSENSION ON
THE KLAMATH PROJECT
Tho Commercial Club held its regular
me&ing Wednesday night.
Tho president and vice president both
being absent, J. A. Perry acted as
chairman. The minutes of tho meeting
held May 211 were read and approved.
The band uniforms committee reported
that definite arrangements had been
made to have the boll game Thursday,
June 11, and that tho business houses
had agreed to close from 2 until 4
o'clock.
Tho committee on ordinances reported
that thoir chnirmaa, Mr. Root, had gone
before tho city council and asked that
several matters be taken up, among
which wore tho removal of poles from
Seventh street, and that a crematory
bo erected to bnru the refuse of the
city, instend of buying a dumping
ground and having all the garbage, etc.,
dumped whero it would rot and cause
stench and disease.
Mr. Phipps stated that lie had offered
to deed to the city a tract of land con
taining about two acres. This is about
a half mile from Seventh street along
the creek, if the committee could get
a right of nay along the creek for a
driveway and would muke the two acres
into a park. As none of the committee
having this matter in charge were pres
ent, the matter was not acted upon.
A motion was made that the secretary
arrange to furnish literature to Miss
Coss, who expects to take a trip offered
by Mr. BatcB of the Pacific Northwest
through the eastern states, and that tho
matter be taken up with the Commercial
Clubs at Ashland and Jacksonville. The
motion carried.
J. M. Sweeney of Detroit was present
and made an interesting talk.
CLEAR LAKE DAM BIDS
HAVE BEEN REJECTED
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., June 4.
Local officials of thet reclamation sorv
ice have been advised that tho secre
tary of tho interior has rejected both
bids that wore filed on tho construction
of tho Clear Lake dam in the Upper
Klamath project. Tho bids woro by
Mahoney Bros, of San Francisco and
by Muney Bros. & Co. of Nevada.
Tho grounds for rejection were that
they were much higher than tho gov
ernment estimate, and that tho required
per cent of lands in the upper project
were not signed for government irriga
tion. The government requires 85 per
cent, nud so far only 7" per cent lias
been signed.
It has not been announced what ac
fion will be taken, but it is very prob
able that the work will be undertaken
by force account just as soon as the
necessary lands ore signed.
CUMMINS DEFEATS
SENATOR ALLISON
DES MOINES, la., June 4. While
both sides in the senatorial contest
claim tho victory in republican prima
ries, the indications are that Governor
Cummins has defeated Senator Allison.
This is tho first test of tho new primary
law.
There wero many surprises in tho
returns. Southern Iowa seems to have
gone through a revolution. The city
of Clnrinda, home of Congr-ssinan Hep
burn, gave Cummins 5-0 and Allison
only 2(01, and this victory by the gov
ernor is taken by his adherents ns a
sample of the results that will be re
ported from the siand-pnt territory. At
tho same time, the governor is holding
his own or showing gains in northern
Iowa, which is the unturnl progressive
territory.
OIOANTIO POWER PLANT
UPON SPOKANE RIVER
SPOKANE, Wash., Juno 4. Work on
n gignntie power plant, c -sting from
$500,000 to $1,000,000, hus been Btnrt
ed by the Washington Water Power
company at Little falls on the Spokane
river, near Reardnn, Wash. A head of
(IS feet will be secured and 30.000 horse
pow r developed. This will give the
company n totnl of 61,000 horse-power
at its throe water power plants, besides
a 20,000 horsepower steam plnnt reserv
ed for emergencies.
BARNEY OLDFIELD TO
QUIT AUTO SPEEDING
LOWELL. Mass.. June 4. Barney
Old Held has made his last automobile
race, so he says.
"Last Sunday night's accident was
enough for me,' he said.
To show that he is in earnest. Old
field has obtained employment as a
chauffenr for II. W. Whipple, an And
over banker, whose only car is a 30
horsepower. and probably could not go
over 30 miles an hour. Olilficld says
ho has cancelled all his engagements
for races.
DORRIS NOW HAS
TELEORAPH 8EEVICE
DOliltlS, n., .lone 4. The Western
Union Telegraph comprinv has been com
pleted to this town and n service is
now established. The line will not be ei
tended from here until tho railroad is
farther a.lvnneed. Practicallv all of
the business from Klamath Falls no'
goes over this line.
All of the mail from Klsmath Falls
now comes via Dorris and all of the
business for the entire Klamath coun
try puses through here.
KLAMATH FALLS, Or., June 4.
Already there are signs of dissatisfac
tion iu the Cpper Klamath project be
cause the bids on tho Clear Luke dam
were rejected. The land owners under
that part of -the Klamath reclamation
project have decided to hold a meeting
in the near future for the purpose
of discussing the question of discon
tinuing relntious with the Water Users'
associution and also the entire project.
The people of that section of tho
county feel that the refusal to accept
either of the bids means that nothing
will be done iu that section this year.
The proposed meeting will not be held
until after the adjourned meeting of
tho association, which occurs on June
5th.
Last year there wus much dissension
in the upper project, nod it now appenrs
that this year is to be a reptitiou of
what occurred during the last working
season.

SENTENCED FOR LIFE
FOR MURDERING WIFE
BELLINGHAM, Wash., June 4. Li
Wing Hi, the Oakland Chinaman who
by his own confeccion, aided his alleged
wife to cut her throat iu tho Somas de
tention house April 2d, is guilty of mur
der iu the second degree, nceording to
the findings of the jury, which returned
a verdict last night after being out for
an hour. It is likely nu appeal will be
taken if the Chinaman can raise the
fuods required for such action.
When it Avus nunouccd that the jury
was ready to report to the court the
prisoner was brought from the county
jail and look his place lit the district
attorney's desk, lie appeared neither
to know nor care what was bning said
as the foreman of the jury anuounced
the decision of the 12 men. No inter
preter was kept to tell him of the fate
which awaits him, if he is unable to ap
peal his case.
SUCCESSFUL LAMBINO
SEASON IN LAVA BEDS
I. D. Applegato camo up from the
lava beds yesterday, where ho has been
for somo time looking afte: his sheep
interests. Ho reports a very successful
lambing season, saying that most of
tho sheepmen made better than 100 per
cent, and that 105 per cent is about the
average. Shearing is about to begin in
that section and the clip will be verv
good. At this time there is no strong
market tor tho wool clip, but it is
thought that buyors will soon bo in the
field and that a good price will bo re
ceived, says tho Klamath Falls Her
ald. All of the sheepmeu hnve secured'
p- runts for grazing in tho Modoc re
serve so that thero will be no trouble
over range this summer. The feed is
very good nt this time and sheen are
doing well.
