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,

who attempted to file on a homestead
in the valley has received notice from
Washington that the land is reserved
for reclamation purposes.
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.
FAIR IS TO SHOW COTTON
l'lan's for Clackamas County Exhibit
Go on Apace.
OREGON CITY, Or., May 20. (Special.)
The Clackamas County Fair Associa
tion, at a business meeting In the Court
house this afternoon, decided to give S.
Llndsey the us of the track at the fair
grounds for a race meet Saturday, June
4. The Canby band will furnish the
music during the races.
Arrangements for the opening of the
fair in September are also being made,
and superintendents" of the different de
partments have been appointed, as fol
lows: Livestock, George M. Lazelle, of
Mount Pleasant; dairy, M. S. Shrock. of
Aurora; juvenile. Miss Amelia Spulak,
of New Era; horticulture, A. J. Lewis;
noultry. Fred G. Dougherty, of Molalla;
ladles' textile, Mrs. J. L. "Waldron. The
schools of the county will have exhibits.
and a superintendent will be selected for
this department.
There are to be many new attractions
at the coming fair. On the opening day a
barbecue and potato show will be among
the chief attractions. A Portland Arm
will give a $50 potato planter to the ex
hibitor of the best potatoes. A baby
show will be given on the last day of
the fair. Last year there were over 40
babies exhibited.
O. E. Freytag, vice-president of the as
sociation, and M. J. Lee, secretary, su
perintended a crew of men on the
grounds yesterday. A field of cotton was
planted as well as sugar cane, sorghum
and Siberian millet. These crops have
never before been raised In this state.
Mr. Freytag, who is an experienced cotton-grower,
says the Boil in Canby is
well adapted for raising, cotton. It is
the intention of the fair committee to
have a spinning wheel in the . exhibit
building, where the cotton will be spun.
