(Continued from First Page.) lamation work of any magnitude -whatever In this valley. Through his Indivi dual enterprise a ditch was dug from Lover Klamath Lake and water de livered to eCOO acres of land. This was more than a decade ago. Then he found himself with a large area of land in his possession, a ditch and no money. Set tlers were induced to take the land on contract without paying a dollar down and were guaranteed free water for three years. Mr. Adams expected to derive a yearly income from the water delivered after the expiration of the three years. Later the Government stepped in and signed up the land owners to the Gov ernment reclamation project. Mr. Adams had but few contracts and accepted the alternative of selling out to the Recla mation Service. Previously he had en deavored to organize a stock company among the settlers and sell the ditch for 5100,000. which with improvements planned would have resulted In a cost of $10 per acre for the land reclaimed. The effort failed and he sold out to the Gov ernment for $100,000. Now the holders of the original Adams tract are paying the Government $30 per acre for the water that they could have purchased for $10 per acre for It was lumped in with the new work undertaken. This is simply a digression to illustrate Mr. Adams' en terprise and1 public spirit. Like Mr. Hanley, he purposes to fight the in dictment against him. Farm "Unfit for Agriculture." Squally Interesting Is the experience ot B. St.- George Bishop, ex-Mayor of (Klamath Falls and one of the substantial men of the county. Three and one-half years ago Mr. iBishop made application for the exclusion from the forest reserve of 160 acres of landi bordering on Klamath Lake near Odessa postoffice. This ap plication was made under the act of Congress which permits homesteading of agricultural land within the limits of National Forests. An inEipector who ex amined the land reported that it was not lit for agriculture, and the applica tion was denied along with the applica tions of others covering a fringe of lake shore about four miles long. All but Mr. Bishop accepted the ruling, but the lat ter was once a Sheriff in Texas and the -old lighting spirit was roused- Affidavits from some 60 prominent residents of (Klamath County who inspected the land were secured, all to the effect that in excess of 100 acres of the tract were fit only for agriculture. Mr. Adams, pre viously mentioned, was one of this num ber. The land is described as being largely a. natural meadow with some marsh land capable of being diked. The history of the controversy, which involved both the Reclamation Service and the Forestry t Service in the three years, is a long one. , Briefly told, Mr. Bishop's appeal is still f pending, the land has been excluded from ' the forest reserve, but is now reserved ' for "reclamation purposes." He asserts (that he has a letter from ex-Supervisor j Allen of the Forestry Service, assuring ; him that if the land was excluded, Mr. Bishop's claim would be recognized, and 'that he also has a recommendation for ("the approval of his filing from Chief ;.Englneer Patch of the Klamath Project. ' Yet in spite of every effort, favorable action cannot be obtained at Washing- ton. Ijand Reserved for "Recreation." In the meantime the fiery Southerner has held on and has erected on the prop erty the second best home in Klamath County. His story, as he relates it, is one of constant harrassment by forestry 'men, for although the land has been withdrawn by the Reclamation Service, the Forestry Bureau is attempting to administer it. On two and one-half acres of rocky point a notice has been posted that the land is withheld by the Govern-" ment for "recreation purposes." What that means, Mr. Bishop says, he does not know. When the entire quarter paction was withdrawn for reclamation purposes it was on the theory that the lake might some day be raised four feet in reclaim ing land in the lower valley, and that, if patent issued, Mr. Bishop would have re. course for damages against the Govern ment. Mr. Bishop promptly signed a waiver of his riparian rights. Then the claim was made that the land was needed for logging purposes, and he offered a right-of-way through the tract for- a log ging road. Some time ago logging operations were started on an adjoining tract of timber and the Government rangers went through the tract spotting the trees that were ripe for cutting. It is related that they ignored one tract of mature timber and went over on the land claimed by Mr. Bishop and spotted the trees that are reserved for ornament around his new residence. The - trees were preserved through the threats of Mr. Bishop that he would shoot the first man who started to cut one of them down. Rangers Violate Liquor Law. The land is now held by Mr. Bishop under a lease pending settlement of his long-pending appeal, the rental of which he is paying under protest. He asserts that, when he was getting some of the land ready for use the forest rangers demanded that he pay the Government 25 cents a cord for the down and dead timber. A new turn was given to the fight with the rang ers recently by Mr. Bishop when he filed affidavits at Washington charg ing that liquors were being sold un lawfully at a resort leased In the forest by the Government, and that some of the rangers were getting free whisky for overlooking the violation of the law. For two miles on either side of Mr. Bishop's tract on land similar to his. he asserts, notices .have been posted that the land is withheld for "admin Istrative purposes." Men who profess to know say that the National forests of Oregon are full of such notices post ed on agricultural land. Settlers Driven Away. Still another incident has come to light from Swan Lake Valley, which at one time was withdrawn as possible of reclamation under the Klamath project. The Irrigation of the valley by that means was found impracticable, however, and the valley was excluded from the project about three years ago, Xmt .within the last few days one man Phone B-6135.

Mr. Hill is also advocating- a good roads movement. The tour through the country has shown the party that there are main trunk lines connecting the principal points in Crook, Harney. Lake and Klamath Counties, which could be made good highways at small expense. Mr. Hill believes that the exploitation work to be undertaken in Oregon will bring in many Intending investors who will desire to inspect the large areas of country, traveling either by team or automobile. He suggests co-operation by the four counties named in the im provement of the connecting roads, and that at each county seat fhe officials keep in touch with the road conditions so that men touring the country can ascertain by telephone whether certain points may be reached., Mr. Hanley has pledged Harney County's aid in the movement.
