Columbia Southern
Project Passes House
i '
Salem, Feb. 12 At the conclu-
sionofoneof the most brilliant
Rneprhes ever delivered on the
floor of the house, the Forbes
bill, appropriating foOO.000 for
tbe Columbia Southern irrigation
project, passed by an overwhelm
ing vote. Tiiero were bat few
votes against it.
Gill of Clackamas and Hill and
Johnson of Marion were among
those opposing. They held it to
be a dangerous precedent for the
state to align itself with irriga
tion projects by the appropria
tion of funds, even though it be
but for a loan. They feared that
the state will never get back the
money.
Hinkle of Umatilla took the
floor and made a most eloquent j Member the date and place
plea for the bill. He declared it February 28th at the Club Halt.

acres of tillable, but unoccupied
land and adopt a definite policy
which will insure its speedy use
and occupation. We have ex
tended a broad invitation to the
homeseeker. It is our impera
tive duty to see that he is not
flimftammed upon his arrival.
"But aside from all of this, we
must bear in mind that the
state's hands touched this Colum
bia Southern project, and the
state's hands are not yet washed
of the transaction. It is. easy to
say the state bears no legal re
sponsibility. But I say to you
the state's moral responsibility
is one that rests heavily upon the
shoulders of every citizen. The
state cannot shift a responsibil
ity. The state must make good
on every proposition with which
its fair name is associated in any
capacity. The first contract in
the matter of the proposed recla
mation was signed by the officers
of the slate and the impress of
the great seal of the state was
affixed to the document. The
settler relied upon that. He had
a right to rely upon it. The mis
takes of the officers of the state
are no justification. The loop
hole by which the state may es
cape legal liability is no justifica
tion. We cannot blame the orig
inal state land board for not
throwing stronger safeguards
around tbe settlers who were to
occupy the lands and ultimately
pay the full cost of reclamation.
These officers acted in good faith,
I doubt not, and in the light of
such meager information and
data as they possessed at the
time. But the glaring fact re
mains that this project failed,
and it is up to the state to see
that under its great seal, and in
tbe glory of its fair name, there
is no such word as failure.
"Will this legislature leave any
lasting mark on the page of his
tory? I say to you that this
measure marks a new epoch in
the histoiy of the state. And
when the records of the legisla
ture are finally made up, and our
children and our children's chil
dren shall read this page of his
tory, let it not be, said that we
were weighed in tbe balance and
found wanting, but rather let It
be said that we saw and grasped
an opportunity for greatness."

The
Kingdom
of Mormon
On the evenirur of February 2Sth
at the Club Hall. Prof. R. C Hill
man will discuss the three great
menaces of Mormonism polygamy,
financial power, interference in poli
ties and will describe this, the
most marvelous organization in the
world.
Polygamy, that awful spot of
leprosy on the character of Ameri
on life as it was and is still
practiced today.
The Mormon church gathers from
ita members as tithing several mil
j Iion dollars annually which is
secret'y invited m big industries.
i Within another fifty years this
church will be worth many billions
of dollars and unless this sinster
power is broken, every trade and
industry will pay millions into the
coffers of the Kingdom of Mormon
and the toiling legions shall pay tri
bute to the Prophet-King.
This you cannot believe unless
you hear the explanation of how
and why it is done. Mormonism
has the most perfect organization
yet known to the history of the
world. It is the wonder of the
ages. Come and listen to the story.
Prof. Hillman was raised in the
Mormon church by Mormon parents
and knows whereof he speaks.
