New Homestead Bill Up to the President Without words of debate, with .out a dissenting vote, the House of Representatives agreed to the conference report on the Borah Jones three year homestead bill and it was signed by Speaker Clark. As soon as it Is signed by tbe Vice-President It will go to the White House for President Taft's approval and tbe general expectation is that tbe bill will become a law before tbe end of the week. It Is customary for the Pres ident to refer a public land bills to the Secretary of the Interior before signing, and this course may be taken with the three-year bill, but lhat is not likely. The action of the House today was accomplished without any friction, those In charge of the bill wuiting until Its opponents were out of the hull before call ing it up. Five minutes after the conference report was read, It had beeu approved by the House without roll call. Half an hour later some who intended oppos ing the adoptiou of conference report found it too late. It the session of Congress lasts long enough Senator Borah will endeavor to get the House his correlated bill directing the the patenting of homesteads on Government irrigation projects soon as entry men comply with the homestead law. This bill has passed the Senate, but has not been reported by the House committee. . If it is enacted, homesteaders on Government projects can get patent in three years, instead of waiting 10, as at present required. Central Oregon Needs Railroad Facilities "What Central Oregon needs more than anything die is ad ditional railroad facilities," said . P. Davidson, president of the Nttrnh M.CMfk, ami Mnrnh M. (leek Oregon & Western Colonization 'f" xH'utr,1"' th luet will kiii , ., iteatmiientnf Heury A. leek , deietiMeil Couipuny, after returning to hi i iM.-iMiuiitH. oMcefroma trip through tho' s,,Ue "eael.y given that In pur- r iilluni-H In HI) itnWuf iKm ul...va ..... state's Interior iocompany with a : party of Great Northern im migration officials, ' "It is hard to adroit," said Mr. Davidson, "but it is true, that a majority of the homestead ers bo have takon up land in Central Oregon In the last four!"'"' i;r;'ix'rtv, mentioned a " . , ;erllied lu mtldatill, mid o or nve years are not producing being for the partition ot more man enough to keep them . . . . ... r ; selves and their ittraillea. ootr.e i have abandoned their places bI- ! ,, ' . , ,,, , , together and are holding their laud foe the development of the T , , , ' country, And they are Homing It at good prices, too. "Now, this luck of develop ment is not because the couutry will not boar development. Our trip proved tho contrary, as none of us ever had seen better crops anywhere. "Uut a man Is not going to do to much farming for tbe market when ho bus to haul hi ptoducts 100 to 100 miles to a railroad. On the average !i0 miles is about the limit of distance that a farm er luCenUal Oregon may reason ably be expected to haul bis pro duce to soil It. The territory within that radius of the new railrouds In Central Oregon Is developed and is doing splend idly. It will produce heavily this yoir. The dry farming section never looked better, and farmers tell me that they will have tho bist crops In tbeir history. All along tbe railroads : and on either side of them the ! cmin fluids the vpL'ftiihla car-! grain, uoius. too vefceiaom fcr dens, the young orchards and , ' , ... .. the stock ranches r reflect tbe fertility ot the nil n.wl ttm in 1 SOU BUU llieiD, dustry of the people. Within a few years the territory Im mediately tributary to the rail roads will add an immense vol ume of value to the stule. "This same situation could be duplicated in the southern and eastern part of tbe state, given adequate transportation facil ities. Toe soil is just as good, the climate Is just as favorable and the moisture is present in the same proportions. The peo ple need only a more economical method of getting to the market." It is probable that the recent trip of Mr. Davidson and his party will result iu early activity in Centaal Oregon. Accompany ing him were E. C. Leedy, general immigration agent of tbe Great Northern; Fred V. Gra ham, Western immigration agent; C. C. Morrison, Immigration agent at Chicago; T. L. McDonald of St Paul, and E. A. Hagrave, of Helena, Mont., special immi gration agent. Wherever the party stopped those men visited the farmers and the homestead ers to learn-their experiences, and to determine, if they could the nted of the country. Mr. Leedy left yesterday morning for Helena, whore he will meet the special train bring L. W. Hill, ex-president of the Great Northern, and members of of his party, to Seattlo sud Port land. It is understood that he and the other Great Northern agents, are prepared to make reports substantially on the basis outlined by Mr. Davidson and recommending the early con struction of a railroad south from Bend. ' , ( Mr. Hill is associated with Mr. Davidson in the Oregon & West tern Colonization Co., which controls 800,000 acres of timber and farm land in Central Oregon and proposes himself to take & trip through that eection this Summer. Following his visit it is probable that definite action toward relieving the situation in the interior will be takon. Mr, Hillit, is understood, will devote much of his time in the future to the development of the territory tributary to the llill linos. He is parUcu!ary in terested iu Oregou.
