THE DESCHUTES PROJECTS Practical Mischiefs Floiriagr From the Carey Act Possible Social Effect of General Irriga tion. Practice. By a Staff "Writer Fourth Letter. XjAKEVTEW, Or.. Oct. 14. While arti ficial Irrigation In Lake and Klamath Counties has already accomplished very notable results, as this, series of -writings has already set forth, it looks to far greater achievements in the future, very Irrigation enterprise thus far un dertaken has been, individual, local and relatively petty. Opportunities for great irrigation enterprise for such .wholesale projects as- would augment the produc tive area of the country five-fold are plainly in sight; every ranchman can point them out; one who merely rides over the country can sea them for him self. No fairer field for enterprise, backed up by energy and capital ever ex isted, but there is no capital in the country. Everybody is prosperous after a pioneer fashion; there is a rude plenty everywhere and in the aggregate there is a good deal of wealth in the form of lands and livestock. But In the accepted sense, the country is without capital. The richest man in the two counties, and he stands absolutely alone, is presumed to be worth $150,000. Not counting the .great California capitalists, who own lands here which they operate by agents, them selves having no personal identification with the country, there are probably not half a dozen individuals whose personal wealth exceeds $50,000. 1 cite the fact not as a mark of poverty, for there is absolutely no poverty here, but to Illus trate the impossibility of local lnlative and self-help in the larger projects of Ir rigation essential to larger development. The California, land-owners might do much, if they could be brought to interest themselves, but they have no personal acquaintance with the conditions and generally no . wish to Increase their already large stakes in a country so far outside the lines of ordinary business operations. Under these conditions it is very natural that the people of these counties should keep an interested eye upon the new ir rigation policy of the Government. Where, they ask,' is there a possible bet ter field for Irrigation enterprise on the part ofthe Government than right here? And where could the Government put In Its caDltal with better assurance that the benefits resulting therefrom would be distributed among a wide body of de-i serving people? Should, they continue, the bounty of the Government be devoted to some wholly new and unoccupied dis trict, it could hardly fall that speculators by' one-'artlflce or another would contrive to get possession of the lands benefited, and thus reap directly the advantage of the Government operations. . Here the lands are already occupied mostly by persons who have earned them by legit imate and honest settlement; and any Increase of their value through the Gov ernment's operations would, while aug menting the general productive power of the county, accrue to the direct ben efit of a deserving people. These arguments are not without force. Since individuals- somewhere must gain great advantage through National Irri gation operations, why not apportion the work, or part of It, to the end that it may benefit a body of people whose labors have already accomplished something In the way of extending the cultivable area and Increasing the productive power of the country? If It is In any event to be a case of "cultus potlatch," it Is better. surely, to discriminate in favor of the worthy pioneer settler as against the enterprising but otherwise undeserving speculator. It is Important, too, for the success of the Irrigation policy that there shalf be on the part of these who are to oc cupy and work the newly irrigated areas. sufficient detailed skill in the applica tion of irrigation water to make Its use practically effective. Farming under irrigation Is something of a specialty; its methods come by study and practice like the tricks of every other trade; edu cation In it is not to be acquired in a day and In relation to It the maxims of ordinary farming practice are quite as like to prove misleading .and mischievous as otherwise. And for these reasons, it is important especially In connection with the earlier enterprises of the Gov ernment that redeemed lands shall be in the hands of persons who know how to make the most of them; for the Irriga tion policy Is in the end to be Judged by Its practical working effects. In a region wholly new, the chances are nine to one that the redeemed lands would fall into the hands of persons without experi ence In fanning under irrigation and whose first efforts would almost certain ly fall of success at least of success in full and satisfactory measure. In this country the work of the Gov ernment would be supplemented by local experience and skill acquired by long practice In the application of Irrigation water. Every acre of land added by the Government's operations to the cultivable area of the country would instantly be brought by the skilled energy of the peo ple into productiveness and thus by prac tical results, that strongest of all argu ments, be made to support the new ir rigation policy. I find the people of Lake and Klamath Counties very much In earnest in their wish for Government aid In this matter, but without very effective methods of impressing their wishes upon the Gov ernment. Isolation and the long years of neglect which they have suffered through it has made them timid. . They have not learned how to go about matters of this kind with -the assurance which of Itself is half the battle. The weakness of their appeal is that In their own hearts they do not expect it to succeed. They have unquestionably the general good will of our representation at Washington; and Mr. Tongue, in whose district Lake and Klamath Counties He, Is especially vigil ' ant In their Interest. But other localities are appealing for precisely the same ad vantage, and in the nature of things Congressional representatives must be Impartial and give to the demand from one locality the same emphasis as that of another. Nobody at Washington or elsewhere is actively and specially push ing the interest of this region before the Irrigation authorities, and for this reason I do not find it easy to be. hope ful for immediate results. The direct observations of my journey have not extended to the Deschutes country, but as things are reckoned here the whole region south of Prlneville Is a neighborhood and I hear more or le3s discussion of Deschutes affairs. Every body, of course, Is Interested In the con temporary Irrigation proposals with ref erence to the Upper Deschutes region, including the famous Cehtral Oregon "desert," and since It Is the common Judgment I am bound to declare that no body expects anything- better than delay if not positive disaster from the opera tions which have been undertaken or at least talked about under, the Carey law. There is no wholly unoccupied, re gion anywhere which present? such ad vantages for Irrigation enterprise on a great scale as the Deschutes country. It Is, literally, a land in which the con ditions are ready-made to the hand of the Irrigation engineer. I am personally DEATH OF PROMINENT JOH3T Q. PORTER. OREGON CITY, Oct. 17. (Special.)-John G. Porter, who died at his home in this city yesterday, was born In North Yarmouth, Cumberland County, Me., March 7. 1835. He was educated at "VVestbrook Seminary, and went to Lowell, Mass., where he learned the trade, of wool grading: and assorting. In 1852 ho went to the Australian gold fields, and returned to the United States In 1800. He followed cold mining in California from 1800 to 1S04. and came to Oregon City in I860, to enter the employ of the Oregon City Manufacturing Company. He remained withtthls company for over 20 years in the capacity of w.ool buyer and foreman of the wool department. For five years he was a member of the City Council, and was always prominent In municipal and county affairs. He was a stanch Republican, and served one term as' County Assessor. Since January 1, 1809, he has been Chief Deputy in the Assessor's office. Mr. Porter had a wide circle of warm friends. He was an upright Christian gentleman, revered and honored by his acquaintances and loved by his family and close friends. He is survived by a wife and two daughters. Fannie G. and Kate I. Porter, who teach In the public schools of Portland. His funeral will take placo at 10:30 o'clock Sunday morning from St. John's Catholic Church. assured that the authorities In charge of the Government's proposed wjork would like to make a beginning there where every local circumstance Is a spe cial guaranty of success; and I am also assured that the operations of specula tive adventurers under the Carey act. of men without either capital or engi neering knowledge in other words ex ploiters pure and simple stand in the way of Government enterprise. We are In a situation to lose a great advantage through the free operations of the Gov ernment, as an effect of a confidence game set up against the state and ac cepted by a careless and complaisant Legislature. I am convinced that of all the blunders of our state land policy, beginning with the wagon-road and swamp-land swindles of early times, this Carey law scheme Is the worst. On Its very face It is a land grab; its immediate effect is almost certain to cheat Oregon out of a great National work; it is cer tain to tie up and postpone enterprises related vitally to the progress of the state. The Legislature, which meets next Winter could, in my Judgment, do noth ing of greater Importance for the inter ests of the state than to repeal this mis chievous law and as far as possible to torieit the privileges which Illegitimately, though with technical legality. -have been acquired under It. In connection with the general sub ject of Irrigation there is this to be add ed, namely, that while certain very large enterprises must of necessity be carried out on the wholesale plan, the largest re sults In the aggregate must come through individual and private lnlative in small IN HONOR OF MOTHER MONUMENT ERECTED OVER THE GRAVE OF NANCY HANKS. The grave of Nancy Hanks Lincoln, the mother of Abraham Lincoln, has Just been marked by a monument. The grave reposes In the little town of Lincoln City. Ind., where are only a few houses and the railroad station, but consider able travel centers there. To every traveler Is pointed out the spot on which stood the old log cabin where the Lincolns lived. The shaft Is simple, and tho base of the monument was formerly used for a similar purpose under tho first monument to Abraham Lincoln erected In Springfield. Until 1SS0. when the first monument was placed over the grave of Nancy Hanks, the spot had been unmarked and the surroundings were choked by under brush. Then a plain marble slab was reared, on which was Inscribed "To the Mother of Our Martyred President; Erected by a Friend." None knew whence it came or who sent It. It is generally believed that the simple slab was reared by Clem Studebaker. of South Bend. Later the Nancy Hanks Memorial Association was formed, and the Comml?sloners of Spencer County bought 17 acres of land, surrounding the old-Lincoln, homestead and deed ed It to the association. . ways.. The wholo; lay-of-the-Iand . in Southeastern Oregon and In the whole o'f Eastern Oregon as well is favorablo to local and individual systems of water conservation and distribution. "Wholesale works will accomplish great results in special situations, but greater results In general are bound to be achieved through the small practice which gathers the catchment of limited areas and so applies It as to make fruftful a few acres. Every little "draw" which leads from a quare mile of hillside may be turned Into a basis of irrigation; and I believe the time will come when-the hill lands of the east-of-the-mountaln Country will be valued more for watershed, alone than they have ever been for range. In artificial Irrigation, as In all things, the personal equation Is a matter to be reckoned with. Irrigation, I have said, is an art by itself, a thing to be specially learned; and a thing. I may add, which allj men do not easily learn. Put an Irishman and an Italian side by side upon adjoining patches of land; give them equal access to a water-head and watch results. Every time the "Dago" will win out in" the competition. Before the Irishman has got his plan of opera OREGON CITY MAN tlons complete in his mind the Italian will have the fructifying waters all over his tract. He has a sort of Intuitive aDt itude in this matter, an inheritance from a loag line of Irrigation-practicing fore fathers. The Irishman, on the other hand and it Is the same with other races who have not practiced irrigation has no such aptitude and he does not achieve equal results. One consequence is that Irrigated dls trlcts almost always attract immigra mm irum localities where Irrigation is already practiced. Coming up by stage inrougn the Klamath River Canyon in .Northern California a few days back could but notice that the children by the roadside bore the "Dago" cast of coun tenance; and the reason was not far to seek. Farming in this dry region is wholly by the aid of Irrigation; and imeu seiners gut or live are from the south of Europe, where Irrigation is the universal practice. When Irrigation shall come to be the rule In the regions, of Southeastern and Eastern Oregon, as In time it is bound to be, we are llkely to witness some Interesting effects of a social kind; for it is Inevitable that with practical and universal irrigation we shall have in large numbers the heredi tary irrlgationlst the man from the south of Europe. a.

AGAINST SCALP BOUNTY EASTERN OREGON MAN CONDEMNS NEW MEASURE. Makes - Pointed Ansvrer to "William son, and Would Rather Give the 'Money to the Fair. CROSS KEYS. Crook County, Oct. 13. (To the Edltor.)rIh his address before the Oregon "Woolgrowers Association, recent ly held in Pendleton, and published by you In full September 29, Senator William son gives his reasons why the scalp boun ty law is good and why It should be con tinued. His reasons as given are two. We will examine them In order. The first, which he has reduced -to a phrase, is: "Civilization is not advanced by the wolf process." The meaning of this, we glean, is that the wolf, In this case the covote. Is a menace to advancing civili zation, and therefore the state should de stroy It and assist civilization to advance. All uninhabited countries, fit for tho habitation of man are infested by wild beasts of some nature. From the first dawn of civilization to the present time history tells us these countries were first settled by a pastoral people with their flocks and herds. As civilization advanced the flocks and herds together with the nredatory animals receded. Our own ob servation confirms this. "We have assisted In tne semi-annuai round-up of thousands of cattle where now stand thriving villages with churches, schools, telephones and other accessories of civilization. Then our campflrcs were made musical with the evening carols of the coyote, now his song is heard no more. The herds and the coyotes were both shoved out of the way by advanc ing civilization. Now every one will ad mit that large roving flocks and herds are not conducive to the highest civiliza tion. Which deters civilization the most, the herds or the coyotes? As Senator Williamson seems eager to advance civ ilization, we are going to suggest to mm, If he will secure the aid of the state, a scheme that will be as effective as the scalp law. Our neighboring state, laano, has a law that no stocK snail do nerueu within two miles of a residence without permission of the owner. It has been up held by the Supreme Court of that state, so he can copy It verbatim unless he wishes to greatly accelerate civilization, then ho can strike out two and Insert five or 10. when, civilization- will come along with leaps and bounds. This Is simple and has the merit of not costing tne state J500.000. Senator Williamson's second reason ior the continuance of "the bounty-is that "It saves the loss of five times the cost." He does not give the figures by which he arrives at this result, but we will ex amine, it by what data we have. The Woolgrowers Association, which priaes itself on securing the passage of the scalp bounty law. consists of 119 members. rep resenting approximately 230,000 sheep. Sen ator "Williamson puts the I003 of sheep before the passage of the scalp acts at 6 per cent. We suppose he will admit his loss now by coyotes Is half what It was then, or 3 per cent. The Woolgrow ers' Association then has saved 3 per cent yearly of Its entire flocks, or 6900 sheep. That number of sheep at $2 50 per head equals tt7,25a yearly. For four years the life of tho bounty acts the sum of $69,000 has been saved to tho members of the "Woolgrowers' Association. We have not the figures at hand to determine the number of sheep In Eastern Oregon, but are willing to admit that the 230.000 sheep owned by the association are not much more than one-fourth of all the sheep, or In other words that tho cost of the scalp bounty laws' has beenwsaved to the sheep men. The cost of the scalp laws to tho state and counties has been In round num bers $250,000. Senator "Williamson asserts that It has saved five times this amount, or $1,250,000. After deducting the sheep losses he accounts for the remaining $1,000,000 In saving to the farmers in chick ens and pigs. A million dollars Is. a nice tidy bit of money, but as we lose 10 times as many chickens by owls and other var mint that have no bounty on their scalp, we. will not bother about It. In fact, so numerous have hecome the rabbits, squir rels and gophers by the operation of the scalp bounty law that In order to raise anything to feed these chickens tho Tanners have been driven to make their ranches a health resort for the coyote. Thanks to the trespass law, they strictly forbid the shooting or trapping of the coyote on their farms. Conceding that the full amount of boun ty paid out by the state and county has been saved to the woolgrowers, did he need it to bolster up a tottering indus- !, try? Senator Williamson In his address oefore the woolgrowers convention says: "Practically all present are taxpayers, most every one present Is what Is termed a heavy taxpayer." Again, he says: "While we have paid out during that pe riod $170,000 or $180,000 of state money for the maintenance of the bounty law,' there are not a half dozen taxpayers in this audience who can tell where the money came from and how It was raised." Rather a strange argument for an Ore gon State Senator, but it shows a high degree of prosperity in the ranks of the tax recipient. Quite a contrast to the host of taxpayers with whom it makes a difference whether they have to pay 22 or 25 cents for their children's school readers. Did the people ask for this law? Listen to Senator Williamson again: "Some of us. In our Legislative capacities, have labored, threatened and swallowed all manner of vile stuff that comes to a legislator by virtue of what Is known as log-rolling to bring about the condi tion" of freedom we now enjoy from this pest." This acknowledgment alone by the father of this bill of how Its passage was effected demands Its repeal. The pros perous State of "Washington, whose sheep interests are large, has no bounty. The sheepmen of California secured the pas sage of a similar lav.-, probably in a simi lar manner, by the last Legislature, but the Governor vetoed- It, giving as his reason that the cost was too great. Senator Williamson lays great stress on this bill being an Eastern Oregon meas ure. "We wish It could be impressed upon the mind of every member of the Legis lature that among the plain people, the common people, Llncolns "common peo ple," politically there is no Eastern, no Western Oregon. After years of traveling among these people, listening to them, talking to them, I can say with absolute certainty that there is not one iota of sectional feeling; that they would as scon the asylum and the penitentiary were at Salem as at Pendleton, the University at Eugene as at Baker City. Distance is the only thing that counts. And any one that uses the appropriations for these Insti tutions to log-roll some nefarious scheme for Eastern Oregon does the people of' this section a foul Injustice. With the exception of one class, the woolgrowers, few In number, but prosperous, wealthy and Influential, nine-tenths of the tax payers view the scalp bounty bill with the same eyes that nine-tenths of the Willamette Valley taxpayers do. But it is just such laws as this that will cre ate sectional feeling. If, for instance. some legislators of the Willamette Val ley, who had stomachs that would retain "all manner of vile stuff," should secure the passage of a tile and drainage law appropriating - $500,000 from the State Treasury, the farmers of the arid land of Eastern Oregon would feel resentment. Yet It would bo -as fair a law as the scalp law, and many times more meri torious. Senator Williamson says they will not ask more than $109,000 next ses sion, and he thinks it will grow less each session. The sum of $250,000 more will not bankrupt the state, as. he says, but can not It be .placed to a better purpose? There is the Lewis and Clark Fair. Repeal this law. Take the $250t000 it would have cost, add h.o it $250,000 and appropriate It, not for Eastern Oregon nor for "Western Ore gon, but for the whole of Oregon. A. R. LYLE. FLAW IN TRADE TREATY British. Flan to Abolish Llkln Tax In China Not Positive Enough. NEW YORK. OctTl7. At the annual meeting of the American Asiatic Associa tion, President Silas D. Webb - said in discussing trade with the far East: "It might be in order to acknowledge that the expansion of trade has hardly come up to our expectations, but we think that this can be considered as at least partially accounted for by the con tinued unsettled political complications and the steady drop in the value of sliver, which has materially enhanced the cost of all imports. The work Imme diately before the association Is of a more than usually important character, relat ing as Undoes to a permanent readjust ment of 'our trade relations with China, and to all the commercial development dependent upon them." Secretary Ford In his report said: "The conclusion of the new treaty of commerce, signed at (Shanghai, Septem ber 8, by the plenipotentiaries of Great Britain and China, brings to the front the question of what are the terms on which our Government proposes to meet the Chinese Government in negotiating amendments deemed necessary to the treaties of commerce and navigation. The most Important part of the bargain which the British Government has ex pressed Its willingness to conclude I3 contained In the terms for the payment of a sur tax, in addition to the import duty of 5 per cent, and the abolition of the likln and other interior taxes. This agreement," he said, "does not become operative until all the powers entitled to the 'most favored nation treatment' in China enter the same agreement. ' "The fact is not to be ignored that likin stations do not exist," said the sec retary, "as a fully developed system In North China, and, therefore, American trade suffers comparatively little from their exactions, while It would have to pay its full share of the price demanded for their abolition. On the other hand, 1 the likin system Is to continue, In spite of the provisions of existing treaties, un der which a sur tax of 2 per cent was accepted as a full equivalent for all In ternational taxation whatever, there Is every reason to assume that means might be found- .to make It operative In the North as elsewhere. American merchants In China and the affiliated associations In Shanghai do not believe," the secretary declared, "that the British treaty offers a full guarantee against such possibili tlea" Vivid Quaker Costnmes.

From the beginning to the end of the Civil War none fought more valiantly than the famous Seventeenth Indiana Volunteers. The story of their battles, their privations and their victories is a long but interesting- one. In Company B of this regiment was' Ell Fisher, now a resident of Jet, Woods County, Okla., who has a fund of en tertaining reminiscences of his. experi ences in bivouac and battlel To a re porter the other day he related the fol lowing: 1 "In 1864," he said, "while serving with my company, I began to suffer with various complaints brought on' by hardship and exposure. I had hem orrhages of the kidneys, palpitation of the heart, and at times I would bloat from stomach trouble. My lungs were also affected. From my suffering" and misery I became nervous and my nerves finally went all to pieces. 'I became forgetful and distracted in mind, and it seemed that there could be nothing which would bring me relief. I was treated in Atlanta, Ga., by the regimental doctor, but did not get any better, in 1865 I was mustered out, and then I tried other doctors. At various times five different physicians treated me, and I took many kinds of medicine, but nothing did me any good. From 1887 until 1890 I was confined to my bed most of the time, and my case seemed hopeless. "But in 1890 I read in a newspaper of how an Iowa man, suffering from the same illness in general as I had, was cured by Dr. Williams' Pink Pijls for Pale People. I decided to see what they would do for me and began taking them. I used three boxes of the pills before experiencing relief, but after that my recovery was rapid. In two months I felt like a new man in body and mind. I took them for four months and was perfectly cured. "I have recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People many times. I do so because I know from personal experience that they have wonderful power to relieve and cure the sick." The pills which cured Mr. Fisher have accomplished hundreds of equally re markable cures.
