M., and will offer proof to show that the land sought is more valuable for its timber The deal is the largest ever re corded in Crook county-. The Drake interests, which have been centered in the community at Bend have always liecn antagonistic to the work of the reclamation com pany, and the purchasing of this pronertv marks the beginning or renewed woik without furlTilfr hiu d ranee. Poesecsion of all the property was given when the deads were re corded. For the past two years tho headquarters of the Irrigation company have been maintained at Redmond, 22 miles north of Bend Now that there is no danger of friction being continued, the latter will become the chief operating point of the company, and develop ment in that iiortion of central Oregon will le pushed ahead rapid IMPHOVKMKNTS FOR BEND. The owners have already arranged the installation of an electric light ing system for Bend, additions to which will be platted soon. Power nlants will also he established at points along the river, and active derations will be resumed in the timber adjacent to the town. Auto mobiles have been purchased and will become a feature of the stage line between the railroad and the interior town. The purchase of the Drake hold incs is in harmonv with the work contemplated in reclaiming the dis trict in that section. Under the new contract signed with the state land board the irrigation company has agreed to turn over all its canals to the settlers should they request sJch action. The residents of the town of Bend are either persons owning tracts under the company's canals, or are closely interested in the progress of the reclamation work. With all inimical features remov ed the entire western portion of the county will work together for rapid development and settlement of the irrigated areas. Portland Journal.

Si.diel. 6-13tf I -Oregonian. A special dispatch from Laidlaw to the Oregonian, dated Jane 23 ays that great enthusiasm is Wing manifested in this section over the roposed construction of a wagon road to connect with the Corvallis Eastern at the end of that line. Some time ago the Laidlaw Devel opment League took up the matter ith C. &. E. officials and received favorable consideration of the matter and a promise on the part of the officials to meet with a com mittee of our people to discuss the ubjeet. The league immediately set to work in earnest. A committee was appointed to go over the proposed route between this place and the end of the C. & grade a nd view out the propos ed line for a road and to make a report on the distance and prac ticability of the connection. A delegate convention was also called to meet at Redmond and all the various sections of country were ta iled to be represented. This meeting has just held its session and a large and enthusias tic gathering was present and some ery good work was done. A com mittee was appointed to meet the & E. ofliicials and to present the advantages of a connection of this kind. The road-viewers have just re turned and made their report, which is favorable. The report is that a splendid road can be built at moderate expense and that the grades will be nominal, giving plendid roadbed and decreasing the distance of the haul to the rail road from this place almost half. It is hoped that the C.& E. man agement,will see the advantages to be had by a closer connection with the fast developing irrigation section to be served by the propos' ed road, besides giving the people of Silver Lake and all of that in terior country a much nearer route then they now have, and a splen did road the year round, with none of the adobe soil and almost im passable Winter roads, which they now have to encounter. New settlers are coming in this Spring in considerable numbers and the price of lands has increas ed almost 100 per cent since the demonstration last year of the fertility of our soil and the favor able climatic conditions. The settlers are determined to have railroad facilities and if they do not prevail upon the C. & E. to extend to the end of the grade already constructed, so that the wagon road connection can be made then steps will be taken looking to the organization of a company for the construction of an electric line of road to provide transportation. People here have the resources and the abilty to push a project of that character to a successful com pletion, and are already in com munication with a practicable rail road builder and promoter, who will probably take up the ' project of the electric line in case of a fail ure to make a connection with the C. E. n the lower altitudes are used and the sheep alloted to the high moun tains are forced to go into the snow. Supervisor Ireland is doing all that he can to adjust matters and the stockmen think that in time verything will be equitably ar ranged. Heppner Gazette. Blooded Stock ia Crook County. J. II.

Quackenbush was in charge of the stock and will take them to Shaniko for shipments by rail to Canada. News .from Paulina. James Fogel was in town Sun day. , i . Don't miss the Fourth at Paul- We are going to have & jolly Sheepmen not all Pleased. Most of the sheep men who are now taking their flocks into the Blue Mountain National Forest are not satisfied with the allotments and distribution of the range. Morrow county sheepmen claim that the Umatilla county flock masters are getting the lion's share. The main trouble seems to come from complications from the con fusion of getting started and a lack of proper understanding of con ditions. The ranges formerly used have been cut up and priority rights have not been respected say the sheepmen. Another complication v comes for the reason that formerly the sheepmen used the lower altitudes early in the season and worked up on the snow capped peaks later in the season as the snow leaves The way it is now the allotments ina. good time. The baseball boys are getting into shape for the games on the Fourth and speedy little horses are being limbered up to capture some of the purses. J. D.
