WESTERN STATES TO SEEK DEVELOPMENT OUKGON CliUn CEIjEHRATIS WEDDING OF HENRY' GRIFFIN Tho wedding of Honry Griffin, ono of Ontario's best known bachelors was mado tho occasion of a celebra tion by tho follow club mombers of tho groom at the Oregon Club lost Friday evening. Tho humor of tho cluji men con rolved a gruesome picture for tho bonoflt. They mourned his depart ure from single blessedness and had a coffin and unllfollke dummy placed therein prepared for a sad farewell, Ovor this "remains" of Henry, L. I I Uracil dellvored a paraphrase of Mark Anthony's oration at Caesar's funeral. This was but one of the many stunts pulled at the stag night social given to tho club members. Mr. and Mrs. Ivan E.

Tho Wcstorn States Reclamation Association has been organized as a rosult of tho conforonco hold Novom bor 21st nnd 22nd at Salt l.nko City. Roprosontntlvcs from 13 of tho recla mation states woro present at tho conforonco which was called for tho purposo of crystallizing sontlmont In tlio wostorn stnto In favor of some doflnlto plan of furthering Fcdornl reclamation. Tho Association do cldod to request of con ureas nn ap propriation of $250,000,000 to re plenish tho reclamation fund. Pro vision was mado for an oxocuttvo commlttoo composod of one mombor from oach stato to carry out tho rocommondatlons of tho association. Stato Englnoor Porcy A. Cuppor was Bolocted as oxocutlvo committeeman from Oregon, Tho first meeting of tho oxocutlvo commlttoo was hold In Salt Lake City following tho conforonco, and It In proposed to hold tho noxt mooting lit Washington, D. C, soon after tho convening of congress. It Is proposed to rnlso tho necoa wiry funds for carrying on tho cam paign by voluntary subscription. Ore gon's allotment Is $3000. Tho Im portance of this movement to Oregon can hardly bo overestimated. Any substantial addition to the U S reclamation fund will not only pormlt of additional construction work by tho Reclamation Sorvlco, but will also greatly stlmulato Irrigation undor tho Irrigation district plan, which Is proving so successful In Oregon. It Is believed that tho movo mont will rocolvo tho support of overy Irrigation and dralnago ontor prlao In tho Stato, on account of Us far reaching effect Even though a project may not bo In a position to directly recoivo federal aid, tho fact that tho Reclamation Sorvlco Is In tho field will mako It .much easier for such projects to secure the neces sary finances from private sources. Wo aro undoubtedly ontorlng upon an era of unprecedented development along the lines of Irrigation and dralnago, and by putting up a united front will now lmvo an opportunity of greatly advancing the cause. It scorns that an opportunity Is now being presented whereby Oregon may be able to secure lior full share of federal development, particularly If the Irrigation Interests give whole hearted support to tho movomont In itiated by the Western States Recla mation Association at tho Salt Lake City conforonce.
