FIRST RAILROAD
MOVE IS MADE
Steps Arc Taken Towards
Building an Electric Line
from Colnradia River
Into Crook County.
Filing of a water right this week
on the fall at the mouth of Wil
low creek, where electric power
can bo generated with but little
difliculty, is the first definite move
to bo taken toward securing trans
portation facilities for thi section
of interior Oregon. Negotiations
are now jx uding, too, with the
Willamette Valley and Cascade
Mountain Wagon Road Company
to secure a leao or the right to
purchase from them Steel Head
full below the lower briilgo on the
Deschutes. At theao tffo points
sufficient electrical power can be
developed to nupply a current
capable of running electric cars
from the Columbia to the central
portion of Crook county.
The action taken this week is in
line with the proposition outlined
by Archie Mason Home time ago
when lie visited this city. In re
presenting Portland and Eastern
capitalist be was in a position to
state that if the business men here
advanced enough money to build
the first ten miles of road outh of
the Columbia and secured right of
way the balance of the distance to
Princville, the necessary funds
would be forthcoming with which
to take up the Unds. When here
last week Mr. Mason stated that
only the securing of right of way
was now necessary to enlist the
necessary capital,, ana .'jpe were
immediately taken . to seal the
agreement and advance along the
lines proposed.
The prospective line will touch
tne Columbia at lhe Dalles or
some point on the Portage road
nd will continue southward
through the canyon of the Des
chutes river to the mouth of Trout
creek, thence eastward across the
Agency riains 10 crooKed river
nd up the latter stream to this
city.

The people of Ontario and Mal
heur county are agitated on the
subject of government irrigation
The consulting board will meet at
endleton about the first of the
month and will then goto Ontario
to consider the project. While
there is much speculation" on the
subject, the more conservative
believe that there are nine chances
out of 10 that the government will
decide in favor of the immediate
building of the Malheur reservoir.
A vast area of land lies idle in
the county, rich and capable of
producing everything that grows
at an altitude of 2,000 feet, and
it only needs water to make this
the garden spot of Oregon, so the
people declare. They say they
have the advantage of Klamath
county in a difference of nearly
z.uuu leet in altitude, and that in
soil they lead every other portion
of the state. ith irrigation
Malheur will immediately spring
forward in population, advance
ment and improvement generally
at an unprecedented rate.
The contemplated scheme, if
carried out, will reclaim nearly
127,000 acres of land. This will
be watered from a reservoir about
12 miles long which is, to be con
structed in the Malheur canyon on
the Malheur river, about 30 miles
from Ontario. Owing to the
peculiar formation at that point
the reservoir can be built cheaply
and the water supply will bo
ample for( all practical purposes
to supply the area named. There
will be a few pumping stations to
supply more inaccessible nooks
and corners, but the cost of these
will be small enough to make th
work feasible.
