THE 3IORXING OREGOMAN, THURSDAY, MAY 13, 1909.
CITY BALLOT WILL
BE MOST COMPLEX
Thirty-two Questions to Be
Decided by Electors Will Ap
pear on June Ticket.
THREE BRIDGES PROPOSED
Cost or Thce Spans AYould Ilcacji
$3,950,000 Others Include
Municipal Lighting Plant
and New Charter.
So many measure are to be presented
to the voters of Portland at the June
tMeetlon that only with great difficulty
tan electors familiarize themselves with
all the problems to come up. Altogether
3- questions are to have places on the
ballot, unless this number Is cut down one
or two as the result of oases that have
been tiled In court. At any rate the ini
tiative will stretch out the ballot to Rreat
length, making It undoubtedly difficult
for many voters to reach Intelligent con
clusions. Initiative petitions, proposing bond is
aties aggregating 3,9..0n for three addi
tional bridges across the Willamette River,
Vtave been Fled with City Auditor Barbur.
Th petitions provide for a high
bridge at Broadway avenue, another
at Sherman street and the third at Market
Btreet. together with the transfer of the
Madison-street bridge fund of $45X000 to
Market treet and issuance of an addi
tional $400,000 of bonds. This Market
street proposal may not get a place "on
the ballot. Auditor Barbur has- been en
joined from placing It on the ballot and
thft subject Is pending In the Circuit
Court.
Of the two petitions which are assured
of being submitted, the one for a high
bridge at Broadway avenue Is advocated
by the people of the northeast section of
the city. For the construction of this
bridge a bond issue of not to exceed
52.0oo.OO0 is to he provided. It Is proposed
that this viaduct be constructed from
Broadway across the river north of the
Steel bridge to a point probably on John
son street. ' north of the Union Depot,
with an approach extending thence to
Seventh. Plans submitted by Engineer
Modjeski estimate the actual cost of con
struction of such a span at $1. .100.000. This
estimate, however, does not include any
provision for damages which may be as
sessed to property-owners by reason of
the erection of such a structure.
Residents of South Portland also are
contending for a bridge better to facili
tate transportation across the. river. They
are asking the voters to authorize the
issuance of bonds to the amount of not
to exceed l.o00.000 for a span across the
river from Sherman street on the West
Sirfe. In support of their application, the
people south of Madison street are con
tending that the increased traffic of that
section of the city, originating from ex
tensive manufacturing enterprises, en
titles them to a more speedy communica
tion with the other side of the river. Thev
are Insisting that with the present bridge
service, the North Rndera should be
satisfied and at the same Time are ad
vocating the Sherman-street viaduct as
an Imperative i.eeewsity In the interest
of SViuth Portland.
The city authorities are paying no at
tention to the pending Mtigatinn respecting
the Madison-street bridge fund and Its
expenditure. The original lssiif of J450.ono
bonds for thin purpose has been sold and
engineers are preparing plans for re
building the bridge on its present site.
It will be Impossible, however, for the en
gineers to oomplet the preparation of
t hese plans and submit them before the
June election. By that time, of course,
th status of the pending controversy will
have been legally determined.
Besides the three bridge questions, 2$
other subjects will be presented to the
voters in the city election for enactment
by the Initiative and one. the vehicle
tax. for. enactment by referendum. Not
Including t he t hree brldsres. the meas

INTERIOR OREGON
Want -of Railroads Handicap
to Reclamation Projects,
Says F. H. Newell.
CHIEF OF SERVICE TALKS
Klamath and Umatilla Enterprises
Are Progressing Satisfactorily,
and Other Projects In State
Will Await Their Completion.
That absence of railroads in Oregon
has greatly retarded the progress of rec
lamation work in the state was the state
ment of F. H. Newell, ' director of the
Reclamation Service, yesterday. He said
railroads only touch the state's edges
and make it very difficult to carry on any
big Work in the state's interior. He fur
ther said that Central Ores on is a region
of great natural resources that await only
transportation facilities fir development.
'There are probably more paper rail
roads in this state than in .any other in
the Union." declared Mr. Newell yester
day. "Rights of way of projected roads
extend in various directions over the
state. In our reclamation work we fre
quently run up against these rights of
way and our work is retarded in conse
quence. The Government has given these
rights to railroads without stint, and now
often finds itself embarrassed in carrying
on reclamation work by reason of its
own generosity.
"Projects in the Interior of Oregon
cannot be carried out by us because of
the lack of transportation lines. To trans
port materials into Central Oregon is
very expensive at present. However, I
think there is great development ahead
for Oregon. The passage of the water
law at the last session of the Legislature,
denning water rights and making minus
safe, will do much along this line. Irri
gation projects of a private nature will
be encouraged and capital will not hesi
tate to invest in them as heretofore. Be
cause, largely, of the poor laws on the
subject of water rights, this state has
been rather behind others in irrigation
matters.
o Other Projects Soon.
No further irrigation works in this
state will be undertaken by the Govern-
ent for some time, pending the comple
tion of the Klamath and Umatilla
projects. It will require millions yet to
finish these works. When these two are
settled up. we will then undertake some
thing else. The Deschutes Railroad ques
tion is now in the Land Office for settle
ment and there is nothing before us in
regard to it. While both the Umatilla
and Klamath projects are held up some
what by the human end of things, squab
bles between rival water associations and
townsite rows, these things will work out
in time, and I have no idea it will take
very long.
The Umatilla project looks better this
year than last because it has been a bet
ter year for crops. Thera has been less
wind and people on the project are feel
ing pretty good. Projects throughout the
West are In good shape. We are now
operating canals and ditches totaling
bout .lono miles in length. If placed end
to end. these ditches would . reach from
here to Boston. These ditches have to
be patrolled every two- days, and some
times oftener. to guard against the bur
rowing of animals and the diversion of
the water from the new channel. It
takes time for the embankments to be
come consolidated, hut within a short
period these conditions are overcome.
Irrigation Conditions Improving.
"On the whole. Irrigation conditions are
improving. We are getting a lot of good,
substantial farmers on the soil. The
reclamation projects are strengthening
the Western commonwealths and we are
putting in a claas of men who will stay.
Private enterprises are greatly stimu
lated by the Government work. We put
in one project ana investors add to it or
put in another work in the vicinitv.
'The forthcoming visit of the Senate
committee on irrigation, which will be in
Portland Thursday and Friday. Septem
ber 23 and, 24. will, no doubt, encourage
Irrigation throughout the West. This
committee is making inquiry into the
general condition of irrigation, the re
sults of Government projects and whether
the investment is a good one. Testimony
will be taken here and the findings of
the committee will be published, making
handbook of reference, with figures
showing the opportunities for settlement
nd the value of the land. I hope, that
the people of the state will give what
data they can to the committee' and ex-
if

SAVES SON FROM PRISON
Indian Woman Denies That He
Struck Her With Pole.
John Mitchell, a Umatilla reservation
Indian, was saved from imprisonment by
the wonderful power of a mother's love.
The evidence In the Federal Court yester
day showed that John struck his mother
with a tepee pole, but it was a question
whether he struck her with intent t'
murder her or whether the injury was
inflicted while he sought to catch a horse
and endeavored to strike the animal.
The blood-s . i ail tepee pole was ex
hibited. Ten feet long and four inches,
thick, it was obv.ously an instrument to
injure severely. Ko-Ko-Ye-a-Lash, the
mother, told in her own tongue, and
showed by sign language that the stick
which her son used was but as thick as
her finger and as long as her arm.
With calm stoicism she told the inter
preter that she was not hurt by her son;
th.it it was an accident and that in fat
her son did not hit her at all. Evidently
the jury was impressed, for it found
Mitchell not guilty.
SIX MONTHS FOR AVI IiliI AMS
Opium Smuggler Has Already Paid
Heavily for Crime.
J. Williams, alias J. Rawlance, has
found that the path of the opium smug
gler is distinctly not a rose-strewn
highway. In the Federal Court yester
day Williams received a sentence of six
months in the County Jail. Williams
was first arrested a year ago. He then
had a consignment of opium valued at
$1300 seized and sold, while, a cash bond
of $1500 was forfeited by his non-appearance.
On his second arrest a fur
ther consignment worth $300 was found
and sold. While awaiting trial he has
served nine months in Jail, bail not be
ing allowed.
Admits Theft of Horses.
John Snyder was sentenced in the Fed
eral Court yesterday to six months in the
County Jail for horsesteul-njr. Snyder
piesded guilty to takins the horses from
neighbor.
