Province of Alberta, Canada. - .....it id i Two definite plans for state aid for Irrigation will be presented to the Irri gation Congress which will open its annual meeting at the Imperial Hotel Oam provides for a flat appropriate of 1150.000 from the Legislature, and the other for a state tax lery of 1 mill for Irrigation purposes. Both ideas will be submitted to the committee on resolutions and doubtless will come before the general body lor action. , . The movement for the tax levy Is renerel among delegates from all parts of the state, but the plan for the flat appropriation Is original with irrlga tlonlsts from Central Oregon, who adopted a resolution to that effect last night. Oplaloa la Divided. In Tlew of the economy programme announced by members of the Legisla ture some delegates yesterday discour aged both plana. There Is a decided division of opinion among the early ar , rivals on this subject. Some sre Insist ing upon an Indorsement of both the straight appropriation and the tax levy, but It Is doubtful whether the Con gress will go so fsr In Its demands upon tne state. It la pointed out that the 1-mlll levy : will raise approximately $1,000,000, which would be expended under direc tion of the Desert Land Hoard or other officials designed by the Legislature for that purpose. Revelvtn Fand Desired. The Crook County delegates who pro pose the $150.00 appropriation want the money spent In that county, and will consent to have it placed In a re volving fund so that It can be applied to other districts as fast as It Is re turned to tha State Treasury from the farmers who buy land redeemed through Us original expenditure. Delegates from Kaetern Oregon are opposed to the flat appropriation. They are unwilling to ask the Legislature for the money In the nrst place, and don't want It to go to Central Oregon in the second place. In this connection a question has arisen over the status of the $450.00 appmprlstcd by the last Legislature for the Tumalo irrigation project. Prevleos Grant Involved. Some members are of the opinion that this money Is to be turned Into a revolving fund for further Irrigation development. This. It is understood. Is the view of Governor West, Other delegates, however, assert that the Legislature never Intended the money to be used for Irrigation again, and that It should be returned to the state Treasury as fast as repaid by the farmers. It is probable that the courts finally will be called upon to decide Just what is to become of the $150,000 due from the Tumalo farmers. If It should bo decided that the money is to be turned Into a revolvtng fund It is probable thnt the Central Oregon people would not ask for additional appropriations. Hut as the Question has not been brought to the attention of the courts yet the exact status of this money can not be known In advance of the meet ing. CamnressUe ! aggesrd. It his been suggested, therefore, that the delegates who are demanding an other state appropriation compromise bv asking the Legislature to turn the Tumalo money into a revolving fund. Another question that Is agitating a rood many delegates Is the attitude that Is to be taken on the Ferris bill now pending in Congress. This bill la Intended to give the Federal Govern ment further control of the water pow ers of the states, and is understood to bo the pet plan of Secretary Lane, of the Interior Department. Ferris Bill Is Pasale. While many delegates are not favor able to the provisions of the Ferris bill, they think It would be bad policy to go on record against It. lu view of the fact that they are about to ask the Federal Government for additional aid In their local development. It Is prob able, therefcre. that the Ferris bill will be indorsed, although a recommenda tion for modifications may be Included In the resolutions. The question of Federal aid In dis trict Irrigation projects also will re reive much attention. It Is Intended, according to this plan, to pool the re sources of separate Irrigation districts as security for Federal bonds. In this way. It Is pointed out. the Irrigation people would get the advantage of a low rate of Interest. Many Umatilla County delegates In timate that they have "underground In formation" to the effect that Secretary I,ane, of the Interior Department, and other Federal officials are favorable to such a plan of co-operation. One of the most active advocates of the district and Federal co-operative scheme Is James M. Kyle, Mayor of Stanneld. "It Is the most practicable and the most sensible way of doing our work." i ohA YAl hj&A H V " ' I he mvs. "In this way only the dis tricts affected assume any financial bur den and the great credit facilities and the resources of the rational Govern ment are brought to our aid. It obvi ates the necessity of going to the Leg islature for help. The plan has worKea successfully In many places. There are several districts In Eastern Oregon that are ready for this kind of development. I see no reason w hj- we snouia oppose the Government when the Government can be of so much real aid in our development." Fred M. Wallace, or Laidlaw, secre tary of the Congress. Is completing the programme, and says he will have everything in shape for the opening ceremony this morning. Asa B. Thompson, or heno, president of the Congress, arrived yesterday morning. His friends are urging mm to seek re-election. Friends of J. w. Brewer, or Kedmona. have started a presidential boom on his behalf. Mr. Brewer has been active In irrigation affairs In Oregon for the last few years. J. T. Hinkle. of Hermiston. and Abel Andy, of Klamath Falls, also are aspirants. J. R Blackaby. of Ontario, a promi nent banker of that city and one of the vice-presidents of the Congress, has ar rived. He says that Malheur County will send a big delegation. The Ontario people are seeking aid for the Malheur Irrigation project. which is intended to reclaim more than 10.000 acres contiguous to Ontario. It is probable that they will seek state aid. Tassalo rrosBOter to Speak. J. N. B. tierking. generally known as the "father of the Tumalo project," is here and proposes to make a speech at one of the early sessions. He ears that it cost the state only , (32.50 an acre to complete the Tumalo work, and that an additional cost 01 a was charged for the reclamation fund, but that the cost to the farmers ts $40 an acre. "If the state Is making a profit of $3.50 on that land It Isn't right," he orotested yesterday. "The farmers on a-lit to get the land at actual coat.' Mr. Gerking also reports that the Tumalo farmers will Insist mat tne $450,000 that Secretary Lane has prom ised as t match to the state's expendi ture on the Tumalo project be expended In that same district. He is certain to meet with opposition in this programme, however, as every other Irrigation district In Oregon has its hands out for this money, in view of the conflicting demands for Secretary Lane's money the Congress douDtiess will not recognize any demand, but per mit the Government to decide for ltseir.

Bulsrln addressed a large audience last night at the Union Tabernacle, East Eleventh and Belmont streets, on "Equipment for Service." Like Mr. Bulgm's other sermons this week, this address was preparatory to the revival which is to come as the Interest increases. The music at the tabernacle has be come a great feature. Trofessor Rose has awakened the interest of the entire audience in this, part of the programme. His solos and those of his wife at the night services have been appreciated by the audiences, Conference Over Plans Serves to lrnite Factions Before Session of Conaress Opens. Central Oreeon irrieratlonists want not only the $450,000 that the Federal Government intends to expend for ree lamatlon purposes in this state, but an additional appropriation of $450,000 from the Legislature, to be matched by a like amount from the Federal Treasury. Altogether, Central Oregon wants $1, 350,000 for immediate development work. Resolutions to this effect were adopted at a caucus of delegates from the interior counties at the Imperial Hotel last night. While the resolutions suggest that the money be appropriated for work in "Central Oregon." It is apparent that this term Is Intended to apply only to Crook County and Its Immediate en virons. Including Jefferson County, which recently was carved out of Crook County. More than 150 defegates were repre sented at the Central Oregon caucus at the Imperial Hotel last night. All but a few of them, nowever, were Representatives of Crook and Jefferson counties. The meeting also went on record In favor of Federal guarantees for bonds issued by separate irrigation districts. This Plan also has been suggested by the Umatilla County delegates and is suDDorted generally by tne eastern Oretron irrigationists. The Metolius Irrigation & .rower Company s project, more generally known as the lower desert project, also was recommended and efforts will be made to have the general state con gress, which convenes today, adopt a resolution to that eitect. Yesterday s caucus was somewhat in the nature of a harmony meeting and served to unite the Crook County dele gates for their appearance before the regular sessions or the congress, vvaae Silas, of Madras, was elected cnairman, and Guy 13. Dobson, of Redmond, secre tary. CROWN POINT GIFT TO CITY Fonr Are Donors to City of Beauti ful Strip of Sightly Land. Crown Point, an attractive strip of ground coursed by the Columbia River Highway near Chanticleer, overlooking vast stretch of beautiful- country. along the Columbia River, Is to be given the city as a park.

Mayor Albee's proposed ordinance creating the position of publio defender In the Municipal Court met opposition yesterday at the hands of Commis sioner Bigclow. The measure was up for first consideration. Commissioner Bigelow said he believes it is not necessary position and would Involve an unnecessary expenditure.

Ha said it is in the interest of Justice to furnish them such assist ance and in many cases would prevent the ends of justice being defeated. Commissioner Bigelow says the Prose cuting Attorney in a case can give the assistance desired and can so conduct his prosecutions that the trouble com plained of can be corrected. The Council deferred action on the ordinance until a conference can be had with Municipal Judge Stevenson. PERJURY TRIAL IS TODAY A. Wolf man, Acquitted of Arson, Faces New Charge. The trial of A.
