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. glacksmithing That Pleases Is The Kind You J.

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.
