STATES DO NOT AGREE
Harmonious Apr-eeiwnt by Oregon
and Washington Hoped For as
Result of Conference at
the White House.
Residents of Oregon and Washington
r hopeful that one of the results of
the recent conference of Governors at
Wasbinjfton may be a settlement of the
controversy between the two states re
garding the ownership of Ashing grounds
on the Columbia River and the grazing
of cattle owned In one state on the gTas
ing grounds of the other state. These
subjects were not brought before the
conference, but Secretary Root, in an ad
dress, called attention to the fact that
agreements between two states on such
subjects, if ratified by Congress, will be
btnding. and are not prohibited by the
constitution of the United States.
B. W. Rosa, State Land Commissioner,
of Washington, has just returned from
Washington, where he attended the con
ference, and In an interview has said
that he expects steps will soon be taken
towards effecting an agreement between
the two states on these two questions
which have been In dispute for years.
Mr. Raps considers the ruling of Secre
tary Root of Importance, not only as pro
posing a means of settling the disputes
referred to, but for treating with future
contingencies. He reports that when the
Palouse irrigation project is installed, it
will be necessary to use the waters of
Snake River. Under Secretary Root's
suggestion thls'matter could be arranged
by an agreement between the states
without having to resort to the tedious
litigation that would be necessary should
the controversy bo taken up in the courts.
Effort for 1'nlform Laws.
The fishing interests of this state have
for years been endeavoring to secure uni
form legislation by the Oregon and Wash
ington Legislatures for the regulation of
fishing in the Columbia River, but these
efforts have been unsuccessful. Men
Identified with the fishing industry of
this state would welcome any plan that
would effect the result, they have been
striving so long to attain.
As to kny agreement being reached on
the subject of grazing lands, that is a
different proposition, declare the Eastern
Oregon stockmen. Any further adjust
ment of this controversy, they fear, would
surely result in a further encroachment
on their grazing preserves by the Wash
ington stockmen, who already have ex
tensive grazing permits in this state to
the exclusion of some Oregon stockmen.
It is pointed out by the stockmen of
this state that the larser area of the
forest reserves In the Pacific Northwest
Is located in Oregon. It is charged that
the policy of the Forestry Department
has been to allot to the Washington
stockmen for grazing purposes more
acreage than is allowed the cattle-owners
of this state. In fact, it is complained
that the invasion of the out-of-state
heards has overrun the Oregon grazing
grounds with the result that many of
the Eastern Oregon stockmen have been
shut out of. grazing privileges in the re
serve altogether.
It was the purpose of the Oregon Sheep
Commission law to regulate conditions
so as to keep the Washington cattle
men out of the state until the owners of
Oregon herds had been supplied with ade
quate grazing permits. This law was at
tacked by the Washington men and the
Federal Court. In deciding the case, held
that the measure was unconstitutional
insofar as It undertook to exclude other
herds from being brought into the state.

Plans Are Ia Id to Make Seventeen
Precincts Dry at the June
Election.
Th anti-saloon forces held a mass
meeting yesterday afternoon In the hall
of Multnomah Camp, Ko. 77, W. O. W.,
East Sixth and Alder streets, which was
largely attended. Dr. J. F. Ghormley
presided. A quartet rendered several se
lections. Frank B. Rutherford delivered
an address In which he reviewed the sit
uation. In the course of his talk. he. un
dertook to answer the question, "does
prohibition prohibit?" by several illus
trations, the most important one being
Benton County, Oregon.
Hft declared the local option law Is
thoroughly practical and when enforced
does Its work effectively, as shown in
Ashland and other cities. He was fol
lowed by B. S. J. McAllister, who spoke
along the economic and social side of the
question. He said the saloon brings no.
value into a community and makes no
wealth, but depletes the morals and wages
of the laboring man, is a menace to the
home and school and a fruitful source of
divorce. At the close of his remarks
he declared the American saloon must go.
John Li. Schuylcnmnn the superintend
ent of the campaign in progress In the 17
East Side precincts, announced that the
house-to-house canvass in these precincts
is going forward with satisfactory and
f avoraible results, and would be continued
during the week, about 39 men and women
being engaged in this canvass. Tents
will be provided near the voting place on
election day, from which coffee, sand
witches and lemonade will be distributed
and where workers will rest. At Sell wood
Mr. Schuylemann said special precautions
will be taken. Photographers will be on
hand and substantial evidence secured
should Illegal voting be tried.
E. S. J. McAllister made the announce
ment at the meeting that under the law
only registered voters -can vote on the
local option question, and votes sworn in
are not legal votes, either for or against
the saloon. It was announced that a
mass meeting will be held tonight and
other conferences will follow during the
week.

George W. Ott, manager of the Hos
tetler & Ott wheat farm, situated In
the High Prairie wheat belt east of
this - point, reports that . migratory
bands of coyotes are badly infesting
that section of " the country I this
Spring. -He attributes this to the dis
appearing flocks of . sheep further
south' and the growing of small pigs
about the farmhouses in his neighbor
hood. Recently Mr. Ott espied one of
the marauders that was jet black .In
color. Freak animals, snow white, are
