While the project was retarded as fonlble nothing has been done because of tha Inab'llty to obtain tha eary appropriation for such a frlirantlo enterprise. The Government still tains Its light to control as much of the water power of the Deschutes Hirer as It may want to use. The company lust organised will construct Its power plants near tha mouth of the rtver. where they mill not conflict with tha Government's later operations. The company con trols a large amount of land east of t S reecnutee and directly sooth of tha Columbia Klver. That tract wl'.l ba developed and rlatted Into small farms.

Purdy yesterday morning when Mra Lola Maxfleld. formerly housekeeper for the aced recluse, filed an affidavit In which she declares that aha over heard a conversation between Purdy and M. B. Evans, a former business as sociate of Purdy. in which It was ad mitted that tha deed riven Purdy tor StS.00 worth of Winters' Grand-ave nue property was forged. She asserts that Purdy offered Evans 110.000 to stand In with him and assist In obtain ing tha property. Evans, as far as Is Known to Mrs. Butts and C M. Idleman. her attorney. Is In Kansas. Attorney Idleman suc ceeded In Inducing Judge McGinn to rant a continuance of two wseks In tha trial of the case. Thomas O'Day. representing Purdy, consented. It is the Intention of Mrs. Butts to brine; Evans hers to testify or to obtain his deposition. fceveral wseks afro Judge McGinn Is- usd an order to County Clerk Fields to place the deed to Purdy on record. This was after he had- heard the tes timony of Miss M- U Pratt, a public stenographer, and 8. Welgle. the sub scribing witnesses.

He nromlsed the old man. be said, that tbe deed would not be produced until after his death. Mra Maxfleld's affidavit of yesterday ts the first direct Intimation of forgery. Deputy District Attorney Fltsgerald examined tha signature to tha deed when It was filed In August, but came to tha conclusion that It was genulna Purdr explains the musty and worn condition of the document by explain ing that It was burled by arrangement with Winters. ; BOJUGESPASE WOODSTOCK WATER PU.VT'S PRICE IS 2O,710.3S.

A tiff among Councilman Clyde. Bur- gard and Joy took place at yesterday's meeting of the City Council, when Councilman Clyds declared that to re fer to the street committee resolutions discontinuing ths Improvement of 10 streets In Kenton would favor the pav ing com pan lea. He endeavored to make a speech on ths street of the Ellis par ing amendment oa paving of those streets, but was ruled out of ordsr by Mayor Rushlight. Councilman Burgard said Clyds was wsy off his base" In bis remark about the paving companies, and Councilman Joy characterised Clyde's statemsnt as "unjust." It listens wall to talk about a pav ing trust, and no doubt lends capital to certain people who make such state ments, said Councilman Baker. "The Kenton people were given a bearing. and there was na Intention on any body's psrt to favor a paving trust. Ths majority of the people ta that dis trict wanted tha pavement. Tbe resolution to dlscontlnus pro ceedings, and another directing City Engineer Hurlburt to prepsre plans and specifications under the Ellis pav ing amendment were referred back to the street committee ever Councilman Clyde's protest.
