before an returne could bo expected. This

ation fund It la expressly stipulated. M
part of the appropriation can bo expanded
on new projects.
Vami la Katlanate.
Various figures are glen. ono appearing
In yesterday mornings psper. of IS.OOO.OOS.
Nota tho facts: Tha J-hn Day project co-r-ecs
;i0 acres of land between Willow
eek and Umatilla River, and tha total ea
i mated cost is about f ::. "00. or about
! 44 per acre. In other worda. tha cost
of this ono project would require nearly
ora. third of lha entire amount In tha re
clamation fund. Including lh. $1S.-I0.v
appropriated he Congress, wnlch by law
rannot ba used on new projecta. and yat
the people In this state. In apparent serlous
es. In tho face of tha official reports and
In the fs -e of tha facts, are urre.1 to aban
d n the West I'maillla project and attempt
what la at present Impossible. Whenever
there la the slightest possibility of success,
w will all be found working- hand In hand
for tha John Day project, but In the mean
lime we desire to use our efforts where they
si;l qe productive of some good.
The weat extension of tha I'matllla proj
ect la the protect that la under eoneldera
fori. It la not a new project. It haa been
aoproeed by every authority who haa ex
amined It. the Secretary of tha Interior
st rongty favors It. and I have no hesita
tion In sarins; It Is today la a position near
er realisation than It haa ever been In Its
history: which fact may have rery con
siderable to do with the sudden opposition
which now for tho first time appears, not
withstandinc It haa been under consideration
for a nnmber of years. This project In
volves the reclamation of between l.n0
and ta.veo acres of land lying- west of tho
I'matllla Rtver and south of the Columbia
Ttlver. runnlne aa far west aa Willow Creek.
It In aowlse Interferes with tho Jobn Pay
protect, ahould It over be adopted, as that
project will water htaher landa than can
be reached by the present project, liberally
estimated, the coot of thla project will bo
about M.tM.sf. making- the coat per acra
about 90. poeslbly aome less.
nallroad Dors Fair Tklaaj.
KometMnc la aald about tho ownership of
the landa covered by the project. Aa a mat
ter of fact, compared to the averaa pro
jeot. the publlo ownership and the quasl
ptiblle ownership la peculiarly favorable.
Tho records snow that 40 per cent of tho
acreaae la owned by the United Btates.
About 30 per cent Is owned by the Northern
Psclfle Railway Company, and X was re
cently authorised by Vice-President Cooper,
who now and for years past haa had charae
of tha landa of the Northern Pacific Kali
way Company, to say to the Secretary of
the Interior (which I did say to btm. that
o far aa tha Northern Taclflo landa ar
concerned, the Oovernment could fix t-h
terma. character of contracts and price a
It saw fit. and tha Northern Pacific would
abide by It. About It per cent of tho lands
are owned by a company known as tho Ore
son Land A Water Company, which I am
told, although not personally, will act oa
perfect.y harmonious llnca with tha Govern
ment. If this company had any other Idea,
which 1 do Rot believe It haa tho Oovern
ment haa the power to protect to a very
considerable desree the users of tho water.
That leases about 13 per cent In what
mta-ht be termed "private ownership." Fur
thermore, there are very few settlers upon
this land, so thst there will be but tew dif
ficulties In this respect. The question boiled
down is a simple one. Without water this
land la lars-.r a draert and deserted. Irri
gated, It will produce anything that will
grow In the temperate sons, and win sup
port a larse population. Is It better, now
that success le apparently tn strht. to fol
low It up. or to abandon H ami lake chances
In the future oa the John lay protect?
Something Is a:s aakl about Interference
with the richra of water usera on Birch
"re.k arid McKay Creek, and other creeks
to ImatiKa County. As a matter of fact
the nee of the water above the reservoir
would not affect Ibis project la the siightsst
aa It la based upon storsgo and the use of
surplus w si era. While I am not familiar
with the situation respecting rights aa to
the use of water on these creeks and above
this reservoir. I do know that under tho
lawa of thla state the Stst Engtneer and
the Foard of Control Is vested with tho au
thority to determine all these questions, in
cluding the rights of tho Oovernment. in
other words, the rederal Oovernment -t.-.l-
beforo tho Board exactly aa a private lltl-
Itat.
Flssesl Water ta Be I aed.
It ta also said the Oavwrnraeat haa u
reeted a certain number of acre feet a year
aa a proper amount to be allowed, and that
tho amoant euegeated Is Insufficient. If
thla Is true, this is a fact to be determined
bv the state officials. Furthermore, tho
amount that wou'd be allowed for nse on
these creeks, whether it wsa two feet or 2i0
feet, could not affect this project tn any de
gree whatever, nor ought these two feat
ures be considered togeiusx. aa they aro en
tirely distinct matters.
., " m bB ,ht Reclama
tion Service haa put water users to unnec
essary trouble and toe, to have their righto
approved. If this Is true. It would seem
that there ahould be no difficulty whatever
In having this corrected through tho proper
channel However, again thla fact haa
aothlng to do with the west extension of
the I'matllla project, nor should It be used
as a basis for oppos'tton to that project. So
too. the rights of the Indiana to Irrlrate
lands shove Hendleton haa been suggested
as havlrg something to do with this project,
and that thst Is a matter which should bo
taken Into consideration and settled first.
A moment s consideration will show that
thla raa have no connection with It. The
strsge reservoir is situated many miles
w.et of Pendltoa. la fact. It Is only about
eght mll-e from the Columbia River. Th

Something Is
all from time to

that justice will be done In the oourta

No land c-.u'.d be taken without eondem
r.iflon. and the v-r.Hct of a Jury. It Is al
most too trivial a matter to notice the state
ments thst sorasone Is trying to put Presi
dent Taft In a hole with regard to Oregon.
President Taft Is the only authority there Is
to appeal to. th only oa who haa power

of soma of these contentions In fact It ap
pears aa though every Incident, no matter
127 "T'L ,r""L ' b"n magnified
and us4 hv someone to prevent the allot
ment of money for this nrolect
ln tha premises and the ono who has tho
power. If appealing to tha only officer pro
vided by law that ran do anything puts him
la a hole, then I ssaume wo would have to
plead guilty. However. I hava an Idea that
thla petty attempt to play politics will meet
with but little consideration from tho people
of this state, a particle more than It would
If we were asked to cease our efforts to
nrart appropriations for tho Improvement
of our rivers and harbors, or any other pub
llo necessity or requirement, because aome
officials did not desire thorn mad or would
be put In a hole by It
There has been a little too much of Ore
gon's standing bark In the paat. and not
asserting Itself, and It la time that wo were
changing our attitude In thla respect and If
necessary, putting people In holes and good
deep ones. If our state Is to be given the
go by and g!adhand only.
When I was asked to take up this mat
ter and io what I could to help It through.
I looked before I leaped, and acquainted
myself substantially with all the facta bear
ing on tha question. I have no hesitancy,
st this time, la saying to th people of this
state:
First That thla project Is of such mag
nitude that It should be considered a state,
not a local project.
Second That It will bring Into euitl-ra-rton
thoussnds of acres of good landa.
Third That It I nearer receiving the
flr.al approval than It has ever been before,
and a united effort will now secure It.
Fourth That at tho present time It Is
utterly hopeless evn to think of securing
an approval of tho "John Day project," no
matter what wo may accomplish In tho
future.
I. therefore, have no hesitancy In orslng
upon those Intereeted to do all they can at
thla time to secure tho allotment of tho
money, which In Justice to OS should no
longer be delayed. Indeed. In ordinary fair
ness to the people of Umatilla County,
whoso property will bo required, thla ques
tion should bo settled at ono.
JOn DAY PROSPECT IS TOGED
Farmers In t'matllla County Town
Adopt Reeolntlona.
STAN-FIELD. Or Not. JO. (Ppacial.)
Farmers resldlna; south and west of
Hermiston. Echo and thla city, at a
meeting; recently adopted reaolutlona
urging; th construction by the John
Pay Irrigation project and farorlna- tba
abindomiK nt of tha proposed West
t'matilla Extension. Tha text of the
resolutions adopted follows:
Whereas, some S0S.0O to 100.00 acres of
fertile soil In Ollllam. Morrow ana i menus
Counties. In the mate of Oregon, which are
now unproductive because of Insufficient
precipitation of moisture, might be made
highly productive and capable of supporting
ln.oi'rt to 10.000 ramlllea by the construction
of what la known aa the John Day project
In Oregon and.
Whereas, the Department of tha Interior
has pronounced the said John Day project
both feasible and desirable, and.
Whereas. Oregon has contributed largely
to the reclamation funda and has not re
ceived! through expenditure within th
ate. the amount of reclamation . luna
hlcb she Justly deserves, and.
Whereas, the Irrigation of tho landa of
the West rmettlla extension, by means of
flood water from the Cmatllla River, ac
cording to present plana of th United
States Reelsmatlon Service, would unjustly
deprive old eetilera and small fnrmers along
the I'matllla Rtver and all Its tributary
streams above Htanfield of water, which
they need and desire for th Irrigation of
their lamia, and.
Whereas, there la doubt aa to the suffi
ciency of all the waters available from the
I'matllla River and Ita tributaries, aftsr the
rights of all prior approprlatoro have been
compiled with, to Irrigate efficiently the
aandy landa nearer the Columbia River, of
which the Weat Umatilla extenalon Is com
prised, and.
w herena, tho continued consideration or
the West I'matllla extension la rstajvjlng
development of some 10.010 acres of land
for which Irrigation has already been pro
vided, and hindering and preventing Inveat
msnt of capital In further Improvement of
lands already under cultivation, and.
Whereas, even deeded roada and highway
Improvement by the County Court has been
refused becsuse of tho existing uncertainty
that such roads or highway Improvement,
for which expenditure might otherwise be
made, would b rendered uselesa and de
stroyed by the construction of th reservoir
for the West Umatilla extension, aad.
Whereas, several thousand acres of moat
fertile and productive land, up on which
beautiful homes, representing the labor and
energy of more than a generation la their
building, will bo destroyed by being Inun
dated by the waters covering the site of
the proposed reservoir for the west exten
sion, and.
Whereas, many official, political, corpora
tion and publlo Influences, as well as of
many Individual persons, have been brought
to bear upon the United Btates Reclamation
Pervlce. the Department of the Interior and
the President of ths United Htatea In favor
of the West Umatilla extenalon, through
what haa erroneously been made to appear
aa a patrlotlo Intereat In having Oregon ae
cure eomethlng which was bslng unjustly
dented to her. and In most Instances these
Influences and persons have not been In
formed as to tho real merits of th propo
sition, or have been misinformed by selfishly
prejudiced, private Intereeta owning land
under the proposed Weat Umatilla exten
sion; therefore, bo It
Resolved. That It be the sense of this
meeting of farmers and land owners, resid
ing south and west of the towns of Hermls
ton. Fcho and Ktanfleld. In tha County of
Umatilla. State of Oregon:
First That wo recommend that th John
Day project be eonatructed because It la
th most feasible and desirable of all Irri
gation projects yet proposed In tho West:
Second That we recommend that publlo
officials, commercial cluhs or Individuals In
form themselves thoroughly and reliably as
to the lack of merit la the proposed West
Umatilla extension, aa compared to tho
greater, better and more economical John
Iay project, before lending their Indorse
ment to the former, and.
Third That we favor the Immediate and
unreserved abandonment and Immedlst of
ficial announcement of aach unreserved
abandonment of tha proposed Irrigation
of the lands In what Is known as
the West Umatilla extenalon with waters
from the Umstllls River, and the Immediate
releaalng of all claims by the United Statee
Reclamation Service to the flood waters of
the I'matlUa River and all of Its tributaries
above Ptanfield for the Irrigation of such
West Umatilla extension.
He It further resolved. That Copies of these
resolutions be forwarded by the president
and seeretar-v tn the President of tha Uni

Tillamook Capitalist Away 11 Years
Raffled, by Prepay Car.
Times and ways In Portland hava
changed In the past 11 years. M
Melchlor found when he visited Port
land yesterday. Twelve v rears in
Mr. Melchlor condueted a grocery
and drygoods store on tha corner of
Russell street and Union avenu. He
moved to Tillamook later and grew
rich on a 300-acro dairy ranch In 10
year a He also owns many houses In
Tillamook: City.
He and Mrs. Melchlor took advan
tage Wednesday of the recently-ln-
upurated railroad transportation out
of Tillamook to Portland. Hla trouble
began when he boarded a pay-aa-you-enter
car bound for the East Side. He
handed th conductor a quarter and
the carman handed him It cents back
In small change. Melchlor thought
that was nice of th conductor, and
went Inside.
"HI. there!" yelled th conductor.
"com bark here and pay your fare."
Mr. Melchlor submitted meekly.
Wheat he wanted, to get off the car he
had more trouble. As of yore, he
reached for a cord and pulled H to
stop the car. Then he tried to rectify
his mistake by pulling another strap.
This time he rang up a cash far. Be
fore he had rung up a ticket far.
Th car continued on Ita way until a
passenger directed the stranger's at
tention to the little pearl button In the
window sash. Then Mr. Melchlor
realised "how things have changed in
Portland. He pressed the button, th
car stopped and Mr. and Mrs. Molchior
alighted, several blocks beyond their

JUDGES SEEK SEAT
Gantenbein May Run for Con
gress if Kavanaugh Won't.
PARTY IS UNDECIDED YET
Plan Afoot to Center on Candidate
for Representative to Kout I.af
frrtv Dr. Lane to Seek Place
on Democratic Ticket.
Circuit Judge Kavanau.h. according;
to report, is not the only Judicial offi
cer In Multnomah County who has as
pirations to be tha first Representative
In Congress from the newly-created

! parently well-founded, to the effect
that C. U. Gantenbein, circuit. uuBo
and colleague of Judge Kavanaugh may
strive for the Republican nomination,
providing the field Is cleared of a mul
tiplicity of candidates and the desired
assurances of support can be clinched.
Judge Gantenbein. It la understood. Is
not an aggressive candidate for Con
gressional honors and will not aspire
for the nomination ao long as Kava
naugh has a chance. In other words.
Judge Oantenbeln la a receptive candi
date and may be expected to shed his
coat and get Into the fight for the
nomination If Judge Kavanaugh falla
to qualify as a candidate.
Nothing definite has come of the
movement Inaugurated recently among
friends of Judge Kavanaugh to Induce
Republican voters to concentrate their
strength on Kavanaugh. There Is a de
sire on the part of many Republicans
to center their support on a candidate
with a view not only of retiring Laf
ferty, but at the same time eliminating
from the field all auch possibilities as
J. Andy Mad-en. ostensible candidate
of organized labor, and Ralph C. Clyde.
Madsrs May Not Una.
Madsen's candidacy Is not taken seri
ously and it Is fully expected that at
the psychological moment he will step
aside In the Interest of promoting the
candidacy of either Lafferty or Clyde,
probably the former.
The movement to swing the support
cf Republican voters to Kavanaugh as
the candidate who can land the nomina
tion and at the same time win In the
election hag not been deserted. Th re
ported understanding is that Ganten
bein will not get Into the fight so long
as Kavanaugh has a chance.
There are a number of Republicana
In every way qualified for the position
who crave the honor and distinction of
being the first Representative In Con
gress from Multnomah County the
Third Pletrlct. At the same time the
deterring Influence that Is keeping
them from getting into the contest Is
the probability that Ir. Harry Lane
may be the Democratlo candidate.
Lane, aa usual, maintains absolute se

positively that he Is seriously consid

YOU CAN BE FREE FROM BAD COLDS

Says It Is' Needless to Expect
Any Relief From Quinine,
as It Is Never Ef
fective. There Is not one grain of quinine In
Pape's Cold Compound, which, when
taken every two hours, until three
consecutive doses are taken, will sure
ly end the grrlppe and break up the
most severe cold, either in the head,
cheat, back, stomach or limbs.

erable headache, dullness, head and

I fralned from making the slightest ad
mission as to his designs politically, al
though he Is known to have con
fessed to personal friends that he Is
viewing the Congressional office with
envious eyes.
j Jadarea Mot Bound, s
For some time It has been x argued
that the candidacy of a Judicial officer
for any other office during the term for
which he was elected was Inhibited by
the nature of the oath he assumed on
taking office. Formerly candidates for
Circuit Judge on assuming their office
have subscribed to an oath pledging
thvmselves not to become candidates for
any other offices during the terms for
which they were elected. It Is now con
tended by competent lawyers that this
I obligation is no longer enforceable as to
Judicial officers In view of the fact that
the Judiciary amendment, adopted by
the people In the last general election
and entirely revising the Judicial sys
tem of the state, no longer requires
Judicial officers to subscribe to that or
any other oath limiting their future
ambitions and aspirations politically.
Until the prospective strength of
Judge Kavanaugh can be ascertained by
his friends and supporters there prob
ably will be no further developments In
the Congressional situation In this dis
trict. Judge Gantenbein. It is an
nounced, will not enter the contest so
long aa Kavanaugh has a chance of
winning. In fart, Gantenbein will not
get Into the contest unless. In event of
the retirement of Kavanaugh. he and
his friends can satisfy themselves that
he can land Ihe nomination and win the
election which follows.
