I'. H. l)encer, president of the
association, presided, and a mini
Lur or water user staled their
grievances against thu company.
Hen Cotter stated what the
Neuters considered their rights
in the excess acreage matter. unci
Attorney Oenerul Crawford said
ho would bring a suit In the name
of tho stato against tho irriga
tion company and nave tho cases
threshed out iu court.
Kirk Whited, J. J. Kllinger. J.
A. Thompson ami others explain
ed to the land board tho harmful
conditions of tho present Irriga
tion system as they viewed it.
and the unfair manner in which
tho settlers had been treated on
. their contracts with tho irriga
tion company for years up to the
present time.
At the conclusion of tho re
marks by tho sottlers Governor
West promised tho aid of the land
board in remedying the griev
ances complained of, and said the
board woifld station a man per
manantly in this section to aid
the water users in getting their
rights. In liiu remarks the gov
ernor stated he thought tho con
tracts made by tho original irri
gation company wore fraudulent.
Ho said tho land board would go
tho limit and do whut wus right
to aid tho water users iu getting
what they wero entitled to; that
tho board was going to holp the
sottlers play tho game square all
down tho lino, and ho did not
want the sottlers to imagine
there was a barb wire fonco be
tween them and the board, but
that tho board was their friend
und wanted to got in closer touch
with them and help them in ev
ery possible way that was right,
lie also said ho was of the opin
ion thut it would he a good plan
for the board to hold meetings
here at least twice a yeur. He
congratulated tho pooplo on tbo
nerve they had displayed in mak
ing their complaints, and pre
dicted that much bonelit would
result from tho mooting. The
governor wanted the people to
suspoud judgment ou tho board
until they see what results have
been obtained.
J. J. Ellinger thunkod the gov
ernor for the friendly spirit he
and the board had exhibited to
ward tho settlers.
Mr. Kllinger asked if the board
hud decided on plans for the
north canal, and the governor
suid ho was of thv opinion that
tlio canal should be built at once.
Stale Treasuror Kay stated
that he would do all in his power
to see that the settlers got their
rights
Koscou Howard, manager of
the irrigation company, said the
company was not selling any land
it could not furnish for. He fur
ther slated that it was the inten
tion to build the north canal this
full, and said the company would
do everything to help the set
tlers and would put in systems
this year so that all would get
water.
The result cf the meeting has
been to bring the settlers and
land board Into closer touch and
a moro friendly feeling between
them has been fostered.

The date of the trapper's death

ting the newcomers properly lo
cated. Professional locators
have in many instances located
people on soil they knew was
worthlesssimply to get the fee
and indifferent as to the damage
the victimized settler would do
the state. The commercial or
ganizations should make it their
work to go into this matter deep
ly, even to the extent of seeing
that people are properly located
on homesteads, without payment
of a fee to individual locators.
This, I believe, would prove a
tremendous drawing card.
"One thing I ascertained on
the trip was that the trade of
Luke view and southern Lake
county is irretrievably lost to
Portland until Lake county get9
direct railroad- connection with
Portland. The new line building
from Nevada will be in Lake view
soon and then San Francisco will
jhave all of that trade. This
trade should come to 'Portland,
but it will be impossible to bring
it hore until we have direct rail
road connection. With a railroad
connecting with tho reads to
Portland, Lakeview should trade
with us, however, because it is
closer to this city than to San
Francisco."
