PRINEVILLE, OREGON ruinnrinRnnnrsrinnniwnKnnnRiiwn uuuuiLiubuuuuukiuuuUjfcUUuuyuuuu This community was greatly hocked Monday to learn that Homer M. Street f Sinters, Or., was instantly killed by an explosion of lynamite. Moth himself and the horae he wa riding were thrown nto the swift-running Matoles s m lilt river. Jhe horse was louna oaaiy mutilated about half a mile below the place where the accident hap pened, but diligent search ha not been able to find any trace of the mitring man. The only authentic details of the accident were taken from a let ter written by Mrs. Street to frienda in Prineville. The letter wag dated April lat. It says: An awful calamity happened Saturday afternoon. My husband waa killed by the accidental di- charee of dynamite under hia C r horse's feet. He brought some dynamite home a month ago and left it in a Mack by the road about a quar ter of a mile from the house, near the place where be expected to use it. He waa afraid to bring it to the house fcr fear the children would get hold of it. Saturday afternoon he was out on noreebacK looting ior cows On his return his attention was at tracted by the barking of the dogs at a tree on the river bank which was about a hundred yards away from the road. Gussie, our oldest daughter, was also making her way to the tree, carrying her brother's little shotgun. Gussie stood on the side of the tree next the river and us my husband rode around the tree to where my daughter stood his horse stepped on a slick of dynamite which ex ploded, throwing both horse and rider into the Matoles. 1 he nver at this point ia both deep and swift, No trace of my husband can be found. Nothing but a piece of the saddle he rode was left to tell the awful storv of the accident. The carcass of the horse was found by neighbors about half a mile below the place where the accident hap pened. Just what dragged the sack of dynamite awajv from the place where it was hidden is conjecture. Some think it was the dogs and others think it was wild animals. The sack was found all torn and the dvnamite scattered around ou the ground. Neighbors are still search ing for the body of my husband Nothing in the letter was said about the age of Mr. Street but from trends living in Prineville it i learned that he was about 45 years old. ne came w urooK county about ten years ago from Grant county, and has a brother living at Prairie City. He leaves a wife and four children. One boy and three girls. The boy is the oldest and is 15 years of age. Every effort will be made to re cover the body.

If a proposition made to Governor George E. Chamberlain it agreed to and is viewed with favor by the State Land Board, the much dis cussed Columbia Southern Irriga tion Company will pass into the hands of the bondholders, such an arrangement having been entered into between stockholders of the corporation and the persona who bought the bonds. A meeting with Governor Chamberlain waa held, and the proposal was gone into at consider able length, and while none of those connected with the matter care to baiard an opinion, it is understood the plan promulgated met with the ideas advanced by Governor Chamberlain. who isbes ' to have the difficulty straightened out so the original contract between the Land Board and the company will be carried out. Among the principal bondhold ers are: r. E. Willis. Guy Willis. Wilson A Smith, Moore Brothers, W. O. Laidlaw. H. C. Leonard. T. W. Clark and I. A. Ye rex. So far about 14,000 acres of the land in question has been disposed of but not nearly all of it is under culti vation, it the state oinciais agree to the proposition offered it will mean the completion of the reel a mation preject, including the ex tension of ditches, establishment of additional reservoirs and in fact every improvement as first ac quieaced to under the contract. From all information obtain able by us, the settlers have been satisfied," said one of the bond holders. "One or two of them have complained, but notwith standing reports to the contrary, there has been sufficient water furnished all lands under cultiva tion last year. In fact some of the settlers demanded and received water for lands that were not iinclap Aitlfivaf inn " uiiuvt vuiuaiivui Some of the bondholders are sus picious as to the reason for objec tions being made in the first place, for they allege certain settlers made a proposition to buy the property and plant of the company and on a price being set they were unable to raise the funds. Then legal steps were threatened and soon after filings were made on other reservoir sites, which bond holders allege was a move to con trol the facilities in the hope that the property could be secured through the courts. The com mencement of a suit means the project will be tied up for an in definite period and that the set tlers would be without water. At the same time it would prevent the bondholders from securing their interest and rather than Bee the plant interfered with, it is con tended the move for a new man agement was decided on. Interest on the bonds is not due until May, and according to the contract under which they were sold, the company has 60 days thereafter in which to meet the obligation, rorthatreascn. it is pointed out, the bondholders could not take independent action and the proposed plan is therefore one in which bondholders and stock hold ers have participated. rortiand Telegram.

City. 3-14tt April first the recently enacted sheep law went go into effect and as a result all sheep in the state, whether afflicted with scab or not, will have to be dipped. Those found affected will require dipping twice. The dipping must be done between shearing time and the time when the sheep are start ed for the summer ranges in the mountains. As the Slusher bill contained the emergency clause it will not have to wait 90 days before going into effect. Under the terms of the new law all dipping is to be carried under the supervision of the feder al inspectors who will work in co operation with the state sheep com mission. In this state there are about 2.500,000 sheep and in order to properly superintend the dipping Dr. Lvtle states that he will re quire the services of about 20 depu ties in addition to those now under him. In dipping the stockmen roust use one of the sixteen dips officially recognized by the bureau of animal industry. The bill requiring dipping was passed in hopes that a thorough ipping of all the sheep in the state will so obliterate the scab that the present federal quarantine may be raised. Since this is the case, it is desired to nave tne wors done effectively, and according to Dr. Lytle, the dipping will be one as near a perfect manner as possible. After the dipping in the spring the sheep will be carefully inspected before their return from the summer ranges and all found infected must be dipped again be fore being allowed to go upon the winter ranges. The dipping will begin early in May under federal inspection and there will be no expense to the owners except that oi providing for the vats and dipping mixtures. The old lime sulpher dip can be used and any of the 16 recognized dip approved by the government can all be used if according to the requirements. The old lime-sulphur dip is mix ed as follows: Twenty-four pounds of sulphur and eight pounds of un- slacked lime added to 100 gallons of water, to be heated for at least two hours under a temperature of from 105 to 110 degrees Fahren' heit. In order to make the ex pense reasonable in the case of the smaller sheepmen of the Wil lamette valley, it has been suggest ed by Dr. Lytle that the owners get together and purchase a port able dip, which could be used by all the sheep owners of a certain community. Dr. W. H. Lytle of Pendleton, is state sheep inspector, tie is graduate veterinarian of the Iowa State college at Ames, Iowa, and has had six years practical expert ence since graduation. Four of these were spent in the federal service, the last three being in this state in connection with the bureau of animal industry. Owing to the fact that so many erroneous reports have been pun hshed in the dmerent state papers concerning the new sheep laws and the requirements in regard to dippine, Dr. Lvtle, state inspector sent to this paper the following statement and he would appreci ate very much if the different county papers throughout the state would copy it. He says: "The new Oregon law provide that all sheep within the state shall be dipped during the year, between the months of April and Auguxt. "All sheep that are free from scab will te dipped once, but all that are found infected must be dipped twice. In this annual dip ping, no dipe shall be used except those that are recognised by the government, a list of which may be had upon application to the state sheep inspector or to inwpect ors of trie bureau of animal in dustry. The government also per mits the use of home made lime and sulphur dip, which ia made from eight pounds of unslacked lime and 24 pounds of flowers of sulphur to 100 gallons of water. Y here any of the tobacco dips are used it is also required that 16 pounds of sulphur be added to every 100 gallons of water. "AH this dippine must be super vised by government or state in spectors, and where dipping is done in their absence it will not be recognized as official, and another dipping will be required. When ever anyone is ready to dip an in spector will immediately be sent to supervise the mixing of the dip and the lipping of the sheep. "the government requires that all sheep must be in the vat from two to three minutes and that the temperature cf the dip must be maintained at a temperature of from 100 to 110 degrees Fahrenheit. AH scabby sheep must be dipped at their present quarters and must not be trailed to a public vat, but it is desirable that clean sheep be dipped at some central vat so that as few inspectors as possible will be required to handle them. "For the present year, no sheep will be allowed to enter a forest re serve unless they have a certificate showing that they have been dip ped by the proper officers. "All eh-ep that have been re ported scabby since January first, will be handled as infected sheep at dipping time, whether they have been dipped in the mean time or not. This is done so that when the annual dipping is completed there should be little danger of them breaking- out with scab again." Redmond Items. Redmond, Ore., April 1, 1907. If April Fool's day always came on Monday we wonder if news would always be as scarce. We got some personals, though. C. R. McLallin is transacting business up Crooked river today. The hot beds are started and let tuce, radishes and cabbage plants are looking well. ' The Iverson place was not sold as reported last week. The sale would have had to be subject to the two years' lease held by B. J. Henniger and this spoiled it all. Ed Arnold of Sisters, was with us today on his way to Prineville. Mr. and Mrs. Walker have gone out to their farm and will live in the Redfield house while putting up one of their own. Mr. Welch sold two of his good cows to Mr. Manderecheid. J. O. Hansen was across the river looking up some business matters pertaining to some C. S. I. Co. land. Mr. Merrill and , Mr. Butler of Crooked river were up to see yours truly on business. The eucher club meets this week with Mrs. MoClay. Robbie Whitney entertained friends at a birthd.iy party Saturday. J. C. George of Laidlaw, was talking mutual telephone lines with some of our citizens today. Mr. and Mrs, Welch expect to go out to their new forty next week and spend a couple of weeks pulling junipers. Mr. Muma got in after a two weeks' trip to Shaniko. Among other freight he brought in a nice line of dry goods for Ehret Brothers. II. F. Jones has been doing some very creditable sign painting lately. Messrs. Porter and Manderscheid were across the Deschutes looking for seed oats. Friends of Mr. and Mrs. Trisler will be glad to learn that they ar rived home safely after visiting several days at various points in Nebraska and Iowa. E. C. Pahk. Dissolution Notice.
