WILL FIGHT
THE HOLD-UP
A Serious Blow
Central Oregon
to
PROGRESS MENACED
The
Portland Chamber of
Co
ra
merce Will Help
in
toe Matter.
Organized effort on the part of
the (X'ople of Crook county and
the buiiineHg men of Portland ia to
be brought to bear oo th interior
department with a view to compel
a withdrawal of the filings made
recently on the waters of the Dea-
chutcg river for pumping water on
the Umatilla irrigation project.
As the matter now stands it is con
sidered nothing less than a hold
up of the Oregon Trunk line by
the llarriman system. The Port-
and Journal contains the follow-
ng account of a meeting held in
Portland last week to formulate a
plan of action:
The appropriation of water, no
tice of which became public a
nhort time ago was made ostensi
bly for the purpose of damaging
the river to generate electricity for
a government irrigation project in
Umatilla county, should the
scheme prove feasible at some later
date. On the other hand, as ex
plained by one of the officials of
the reclamation service a short
time ago, there were apparently
ulterior motives back of the filing.
The water power of Oregon is
Is most valuable asset," comment-
d this official, "and one of the
means of destruction is a railroad.
he reclamation service made its
filing on the waters of the Des
chutes with the intention that no
raihoad should go in there."
1'EOri.E ARK INCENSED.
The purport of these remarks, to
gether with the seeming heartless
ness of a move which will block
ndetinitely tho development of
millions in resources, let alone the
njury to thousands already in
vested in legitimate enterprises,
has incensed not only central Ore
gon residents, but business men of
Portland as well, and active meas
ures are being taken to bring about,
if possible, a reversal of recent acts
nd rulings.
Petitions are being spread broad
cast throuhout Crook county, set
ting forth the real situation and
making clear the fact that if the
road is barred from further prog
ress incalculable damage will be
done not only to the country itself
and its people, but to its future de
velopment along every line As
soon as possible these petitions,
which are to be presented to the
secretary of the inferior when suf
ficient signatures have been secur
ed, will be returned to Portland
for the chamber of commerce to
take action upon and it is not im
probable that they will go back to
Washington with considerable con
gressional weight attached to them.
Down in central Oregon the full
scope of the injury which the recla
mation service has done the coun
try by shutting off its one hope of
securing transportation facilities,
has brought out no little expres
sion of feeling in the matter. Ac
cording to C. C. Covey, superin
tendent of the Warm Springs In
dian reservation, the filing made
by the reclamation service is a vio
lation of the treaty rights of the
Indians, and a protest will go in
from him to the interior depart
ment. He writes in a letter:
"This means, as I understand it,
that if this project to dam the Des
chutes for the purpose of develop
ing power to pump water onto arid
lands bordering on the Columbia
is carried out, no persons or cor
poration can in the future take
water out of the Denchutes or any
of its tributaries above the Warm
Springs for any purpose whatso
ever. IS SERIOUS MATTER
"This is certainly a serious mat
ter to all land owners in this vi
cinity. I expect to enter a protest
on behalf of the Warm Springs In
dians on the ground that such ac
tion will violate tho treaty rights
of these Indians. Not only the
land of the reservation was set
aside for their use, but the treaty
specifically atatea that the bound
ary of the reservation extends to
the middle of the Incbuteii river,
"The inhabitant of the Ifc
chutes valley ought to join in a
monster petition to the secretary
of the interior against the diversion
of these waters for such a purpose,
What is the necessity of spending
hundred of thousands of dollars
to transmit thia power a hundred
mi lea to pump water onto arid
lands along the Columbia when
right here in the Deschutes valley
are thousands of acres of fine land
that could be irrigated by the use
of this power without the added
extM'nse of transmission."
bailroao u blamed.
As the full details of the inten
tions of the reclamation service in
making its filing at the mouth of
the Deschutes become known, the
l 1 m ' ......
uenei gains ground that the ap
propnation of water was a play
m mi me nanus oi a railroad cor
poration in order that the latte
might keep the traffic of central
Oregon to itself, free of anv com
petitive line. Especially strong in
this belief in the central part of
the state where the conditions are
better understood, and where the
residents for years past have
watched one effort after another
being made to keep the district in
the clutches of a railroad system
whose nearest branch line is 65
milt north of the Crook county
boundary.
"Any one who is familiar with
the topography of Oregon can
readily see that the Deschutes can
yon is not only absolutely essen
tial for heavy traffic from central
Oregon to the coast, but that it
will eventualls become the most
economical route for trunk line
service between Portland and east
ern and southern points." said L.
D. Wiest, former state engineer of
Wyoming, who has spent several
years in central Oregon and was
one o the first engineers on the
irrigation work there.
"It was with this knowledge in
view that not only capital has
commenced investments both in
lumber and irrigation enterprises
that will require millions of dol-
ars and permanently add thou
sands in wealth and population to
the slate, he continues in an ar
ticle appearing in the Bend Bulle
tin, "but was the cause of large
numbers bringing their families to
the Deschutes region and invest
ing all they had in the develop
ment ot the land on which they
have located. By the construc
tion of this dam as now contem
plated these enterprises and de
velopments would not only receive
a staggering blow, but both east
and west and north and south
trunk lines would become so seri
ously crippled as to make it doubt
ful whether present plans would
ever be perfected."
Lake County Cattle.
J. S. Hayes and Ed Henderson,
of Silver Lake, were in town this
week receiving a bunch of about
300 head of stock cattle which Mr.
Hayes purchased of Crook county
cattlemen.
In speaking of cattle conditions
in Lake county these gentlemen
informed us that the greater part
of the beef cattle in the Silver Lake
section had been sold and that a
great many of the big cattlemen
have sold out their range cattle.
This leaves the range in a depleted
condition and should be a great
help to better grass and forage
next season. The horses, too, have
been cleaned out at prices that
have been remunerative all round.
The prospects for Lake county
next year are unusually bright.
Have Your Picture Taken early.
Those wishing pictures for
Christmas should have their nega
tives taken as soon as possible in
order to avoid the rush later on.

RELIGIOUS
FANATICISM
A Peculiar Case Near
Madras.
FAMILY VERY SICK
The Mother Diet
from the Ef
Typhoid fecti of
Feter.
A peculiar case of religious fan
aticism was brought to light laat
week on Little Plain five miles
west of Madras. A man by the
name of Jacob De Sbaier is the
victim of the hallucination.
This fall he with his wife and
family went over to the Willamette
valley for fruit. Not long after
they got back Mrs. De Shaier was
taken sick with typhoid fever. She
was in tied about eighteen days
and at the end of that time was
perhaps feeling better and decided
to get up. In doing so she ruptur
ed one of the intestines and died
shortly afterward. She had been
dead & couple of days when neigh
bors notified the county authorities
of the matter. Dr. Edwards was
sent to look after tne case and on
making a visit to the De Shazer
home found a 10-year-old datghter
and a son 8 years of age down with
the same disease. The daughter
was in a semi-conscious condition
and needed immediate attention.
The father objected to the use of
drugs. He believed in the efficacy
of prayer. He claimed to be a
saint and believed that his prayers
would be effective unless the will
of God decreed otherwise. Neigh
bors who knew of the pecular re
ligious views of the father wanted
to take the children and nnnw
them through their sickness but
the father would not hear of it.
He agreed, however, not to inter
fere with the course prescribed by
the physician and the boy and girl
were left at home in charge of a
nurse employed by the county.
De Shazer is a monomaniac on the
subject of his own sanctity and the
moving power of prayer to cure
disease. In other resoects he is a
man that is well thought of by the
members of the community in
which he lives. At last reports
the children were getting along as
well as could be expected.
Music by Mail.
It is with considerable pleasure
we call our reader's attention to
the advertisement of the Interna

pearing in another column of this

largest Conservatory of Music in
the United States and the only
one in the world that has a com
mercial rating, which fact guaran
tees its ability to do as promised.
Their business is to teach music bv

over 25,000 pupils. That they art
doing this uocfully is proven
by the wonderful tuccexa of tht
school and by the splendid letters
of endorsement they have received
from those who have and are
taking the courses.
Up to the present time many of
our readers, especially those living
in the rural districts, have been
unable to give their children the
benefita of a musical education as
the expense of sending them away
from home was too high and owing
to the location of their homes it
wa not possible to secure the serv
ices of a competent teacher. Now,
however, there will be no further
excuse, for the International Con
servatory of Music brings a con
servatory education within the
reach of all and at a price much
lower than the same instructions
could be secured from a personal
teacher. In fact, there are few per
sonal teachers who could take
their pupils as far into music as
these schools. Their courses have
been prepared by not one, but by
many of the best teachers in this
country and Europe. The beet of
all the leader is placed within
your reach.
A personal representative of the
company Mr. B. F. Scott, is now
in this county and would be pleas
ed to call upon you in the near
future. We think it would be a
wise move for you to at least make
a thorough investigation of their
methods.
Prineville Boy in British Columbia.
Ymir, B. C, Nov. 23, 1906.
Eldon Hamilton, and old Prine
ville boy, writes from Ymir, B. C.,
as follows:
I am still living in hopes of
prosperity and from the looks f
the surroundings believe that I am
doomed for another winter in
British Columbia. We have had
extraordinary lot of rain this fall
which wound up with a fall of
about 24 inches of snow and a drop
in the thermometer to zero. Old
weather prophets predict a very
long and severe winter. 1 think,
however, they will know more
about it in the spring. It does
not matter much anyway, as there
are only two seasons in this coun
try July and winter.
British Columbia is steadily
coming to the front. Every line
of industry is going ahead nicely,
particularly mining. If the pres
ent price of silver continues the
silver mines here will once more
be in their glory. Several proper
ties that have been closed down for
six or eight years have resumed
work.
Scarcity of labor is the cry of
all mine operators. Some are agi
tating the withdrawal of the Chi
nese head tax which is placed at
$500. The British government
has had enough experience with
the "pigtails" in South Africa to
take any such foolish step.
I am amalgamater at the Ymir
mill. This property is equipped
with an 80-stamp mill and a 200
ton cyanide plant, a ten-drill air
compressor and a dynamo which
lurninhes lights for the mine, mills
and boarding house. The machin
ery is all run by water power
under 200 pounds pressure. The
ledge varies in width from 30 to 40
feet and assays on an average from
$ 7 to $9 a ton. Free mills 60 per
cent concentrates and cyanites 35
per cent, from 200 to 300 men
are employed.
I am glad to see that Prineville
is steadily going ahead and hope
that you will get your new court
houge ns mentioned in your last
issue. You certainly need it.
Wishing you the compliments of
the season I remain, your old
schoolmate, Eldon Hamilton.
