HCSl'M, Wash- April 1Z (Special.) The filing upon numerous water-power sites along the 'White Salmon River In this county Is giving rise to much specu lation as to their termination. Not withstanding ' the sites are being filed upon by different persons and corpora tions, the theory is advanced that ulti mately some strong company will control all of them. So far as known five power sites have been taken up within the past CO days along the White Salmon River for a distance of 30 miles. These filings are made by the Northwestern Electric Company, the Pacific Power & Light Company. Charles L. Huff and others. The filings call for approximately 1000 cubic feet of water p:r second, to be used for manufacturing and Irrigation purposes, and for the generation of eleo . i . u-h rwivrer and all other purposes to which electricity may be applied, water la to do oiveneo oy erecting dams, ranging from 50 to 130 feet In height, and carried by means of flumes. . ...-..t.!.. tt that Pacific Power A Light Company when in Husum re cently made the assertion mat u m ah..- HifTarent nower sites were made by his company he had not been apprised of the tact.

Optiona at exceptionally high prices are being given by ranchers owning lands adjacent to power Bites filed on.

UNITED WORK AIM Umatilla Towns to - Exploit ' County's Resources. CAMPAIGN IS . PLANNED Manager Chapman, of Portland Commercial Club Urges Pendle ton and Adjoining: Communi ties to Work Together. PENDLETON. Or.. April 1J. (Spe cial.) The 231 mile, separating Pen dleton and Portland were annihilated this evening and the two cities brought Immeasurably closer together by the enthusiastic reception which waa ten dered C. C. Chapman, of the Portland Commercial Club, by nearly 200 busi ness men and citixens of Pendleton at the second monthly banquet of the local commercial association. Mr. Chapman won for himself and Portland the ever lasting friendship of this city by his earnest declaration tiat the metropolis was backing and boosting the Roundup, Pendleton's great frontier show. He urged the local association to se cure for Itself permanent and commo dious quarters and by all meana to have an exhibit hall In connection. Milton Section Heavy Producer. H. D. Lamb, manager of the Milton Fruit Growers' Union, electrified the meeting by giving figures to show that the MUton-Freewater country produced more fruit and obtained more, money for It than does either Hood River or Wenatchee sections. Among the other speakers were Ha ven L. Whiting, of the Walla Walla Commercial Association; Captain Buch anan, of the Open River Transportation Company; F. W. Swayxee, of Hermis ton: J. O. Keefe. of Weston, and L. E. Meacham. of Walla Walla. The outside visitors declared the meeting would have been a credit to any city of the Northwest, without re strictions as to size. It has been contended for some time that the active spirits engaged in com mercial work In Umatilla County have not co-operated with the success that the situation demanded. Tonight's meet ing was held with a view of unify ing the various towns of the county so that Pendleton, the county seat, might lead and lend Its assistance towards the development of the county as a whole. It Is said that Umatilla la the largest wheat-producing county In the United States and that Its crop during the past year aggregated 5.000,000 bushels. Wheat and Erult Raised. Not only as a wheat-producing coun try, but as a fruit raising section. Uma tilla maintains a high position In the Northwest. It has within its borders the Government irrigation project, which Is rapidly nearlng completion and Is seeking also from the Govern ment an additional acreage known as the West End project. Regardless of these vast resources. Umatilla has not been able to secure Its lust proportion of the colonists who are coming from the Middle West to Oregon. An analy sis of the situation, according to the view point of the Pendleton business men. Is to the effect that there Is a woeful lack of united publicity for a common end. the settlement of Uma tilla County. Each unit of community interest has adopted the plan of going It alone, with the result that the effort was small and the returns even more minute. It Is believed that with the unification of all the towns under the guidance of the Oregon Development League the fu ture will lead to a comprehensive and Intelligent understanding of the won derful resources of this section of the state. Walla Walla Has Trade. There is another object to strive for In holding the meeting at Pendleton, and that Is that In the past the Milton Freewater district, an Irrigated fruit country which ships annually hundreds of care of apples to the East, has given the benefit of Its local trade to Walla Walla. This properly, it is thought, should have been given to Pendleton and In dqlng so would aid In develop ing the county as a whole. This Is re garded as a more personal sfae of the question so far as Pendleton is con cerned, although there was a broad spirit manifested on tile part of Pendle ton business men towards the develop ment of the county aa a whole rather than consider the immediate success of anv single Umatilla community. Mr. Chapman. In his address, pointed very clearly that the succesa of Oregon aa a winner of settlers from the Mid dle West rested largely In a united and co-operative spirit, taking the county as the unit and the state as a bulwark of strength. "If publicity." said Mr. Chapman, "is to be of value to the State of Oregon, It must be of a meri torious nature. .No advertising Is of benefit unless ltls truthful. No com munity ever was built upon a solid foundation by the use of exaggerated statements of Its resources. At the same time a single community cannot attain the same degree of publicity that a number united together for the com mon purpose can. Unity of Work Essential. "To properly build up Umatilla County, every community must be lined up on the same side of the fence, with the same purposes in view and under the direction of a common head. It Is just as much to the advantage of Her mlston as It is to Pendleton to get a settler In Umatilla Coun'y, even If he trades at Milton. "It Is all right to make a noise and yell loud, but that will never get the settler. It lies within the power of a county to become a strong and vigorous factor by showing a united front, all telling the same story, and a truthful one. if It desires to develop. Umatilla County, with Its record as a wheat producing country. Its wonderful fruit belt, and one of the choicest Irrigation projects on the face of the earth, so far aa climate, soil and ' altitude are concerned, should and can become a very attractive spot for the settler who desires to Improve his condition by moving to the West."
