Storage Kettorvulru.
The (itnte of Oregon will pay in
lo the national treasury for public
lands more than unongh money
during tliis your than would be
necessary to build storage reser
voirs euHicient to irrigate half of
the best agricultural arid land in
the eastern part of the state. Then
why should not this part of the
tate receive the benefit from this
money? There will be enough
paid in from Crook county alone
to build a system of irrigating ca
nals to cover the county if it were
not that a large area of the land as
well as the water had been taken
up under the Carey la sr. What is
. the use of a law providing for the
use of the funds arising from the
Sale of the publie lands if the peo
ple of the states wherein those
lands are sold do not get the bene
fit of this law? Last year Mr.
Xewell was here in the interest of
the arid lands of this county and
he expressed liimsel as well pleased
with the land and with the sur
rounding country as suited for
storage reservoirs. We should not
rest on our oars as it were, but
should be up and doing to (.et the
benefit of the money now being
paid into Uncle Sam's coffers from
me sale oi limner lana in tins
county. During the coming stock
show there should be a meeting
held for the purpose of discussing
this matter and formulating some
plan of action to be pursued jn the
future. We should urge upon our
congressional delegation the ur
gency for immediate action along
t his line and get what we can at
the earliest possible moment.
There are numerous places in
this viciuity where reservoir sites
can be had that would cover sev
eral thousand acres of fine agricul
tural land that will produce large
returns from the. amount invested
in a reservoir. On McKay ereik is
a model site where a reservoir could
be built for a few thousand dollars
that would cover several sections of
choice land and further up the val
ley there can be numerous sites
found that, while they are not so
large nor so well located as the one
on McKay, they would add mate
rially to the producing area of this
county.
Let the farmers aiid stock men
of this county get together on this
proposition and the result can
easily be foretold, but without some
action being taken in tbe matter
we cannot expect any benefit from
the beneficial law lately passed re
garding the irrigation problem.
Thousands of acres of pasture land
tend to solve the range question
for a time at least, besides giving
more room for the farmer to raise
stock where he now can only make
a feeble attempt at the business be
cause of the congested condition of
the outrange.
Denver creek and those on Silver
creek, the business houses of this
town could do more in the lines of
Irade followed by each than they
can at the present' time, besides it
would be a great accomniogation
to the settlers along the line as they
could order goods without waiting
for the slow process of the mail.
Again when anyone gets sick along
the proposed line they must send
from fifty to seventy miles for a
doctor, which requires no little
time at best. With a line through
that part of the county those same
people could send a message for a
doctor und he could be on the
ground More the messenger cnul
get to town. This is onlv one of
the many advantages to accrue to
the citizens of this county by hav
ing a line from here to Burns. We
hope that the gentlemen compos
ing the company will see fit to put
their line through this fall and
that they will meet with the en
couragement they deserve in this
matter.
