ney, which if passed by the council
and later by the voters will enable
the city to enter into five-year con
tracts for the lighting of city streets
and public buildings. The present
contracts are for only two-year pe
riods. "The proposed plan," said Com
missioner Mann, "will make possible
lower rates per lamp per year, and
the placing of additional cost of in
stallation of new lights on the com
pany instead of on the city. It will
also make possible competitive bids,
because under the present system
some companies will not even bid for
two-year contracts."
No definite time has been set for

first day of the annual convention of
the Oregon State Klks association.
Variety marked the parafle, the dis
tinct feature of the opening day of
the third annual convention of the
tate association, for every section
brought a surprise to the thousandts
of spectators who packed Commer
cial, State and Court streets, over
which the parade was routed.
McMlnnville made a marvelous
showing both from a standpoint of
numbers and diversity of features.
First came the first McMinnville band,
followed by a gorgeous decorated
float. Then came 250 marchers clad
In costume. A jazz band seated on a
water wagon, borrowed from the city
of Salem, was next in line, and eight
floats, the majority comic in nature.
Drought both applause and laughter.

made a splendid showing, with sev
eral hundred members garbed in yama
yama suits, a jazz band and several
hundred members in the march.

with more than -600 men in line. Ray
Cullen was in charge of the Portland
entry, with Dr. F. H. Dammasch serv
ing as drum major for the Portland
band. One of the decided hits of the
parade was Charles Rtngler, past ex
alted ruler of Portland lodge, who
appeared as an Egyptian dancing girl.
Salem, the host of the convention,
naturally had the largest number of
members in the line. Estimates made
by E. A. Kurtz, exalted ruler of Salem
lodge, placed 850 Salem members in
the parade.
Eugene, Astoria, Albany and Med-
ford lodges had large numbeVs of
members in the line. Medford made
a. hit with its jazz band, which not
alone furnished music which caused
many of the spectators to begin
dancing on the streets as they passed,
but drew applause because of the
unique costumes worn by the mem
bers of the band.
The parade was led by an automo
bile carrying Harry G. Allen, presi
dent of the state association; James
D. Olson, secretary, and C. A. Hay
den, treasurer, and another automo
bile bearing Governor Olcott, Mayor
Baker of Portland and stat officials,

STORM UPROOTS POLES'
rhone Line Near Albany Damaged
by Lightning Bolts.
ALBANY, Or., July 22. (Special.)
Several telephone poles on a rural
line near Oakville, about ten miles
southwest of Albany, were knocked
down by lightning during a brief
electrical storm yesterday afternoon.
Lightning followed the wire into the
telephone on the wall of the resi
dence 'of D. M. Demartz, riddling the
phone and setting the wall paper on
fire. No one was in the room at the
time but the fire was discovered
promptly and extinguished.
Several other telephones In that
vicinity were put out of commission
by the storm.
BEND, Or., July 22. (Special.)
Equitable division of the storage
waters of the Deschutes river among
the four units of the Deschutes proj
ect was demanded and the seizure of
all surplus water by the north unit
in jenerson county was condemned
today. The club decided to apply to
Percy A. Cupper, state engineer, in an
endeavor to secure for the east, south
and west units of the greater project
lair share of the irrigation which
will be made possible by the con
struction of the Benham falls reser
voir.
'If north unit plans are permitted
to go through we can say good-bye
to all future irrigation and power de
velopment." was the declaration of
D. G. McPherson, president of the
club, in introducing the subject.
Elimination Proposed.
According to information which has
been obtained by the Bend business
men s organization concerning the
north unit plans, the three other
units, the old Benham falls segrega
tion, the north canal unit in the C.
O. I. segregation and the Tumalo ex
tension, will be eliminated.
A strategic position is occunled bv
the north unit from the fact that its
ands are almost entirely in pri
vate ownership, and that the district
organized is already bonded for
Ja, 000, 000 and has sold 350.000 worth
of bonds to provide for a further sur
vey of the Benham Falls site.
Big Expenditure Involved.
Increased duty of water, a decrease
in the minimum flow of the Deschutes
from previous estimates and the great
loss rrom seepage and evaporation
which would be involved in carrying
water from 40 to 60 miles to the north
unit, would make It possible for the
Jefferson county irrigators to use
nearly the entire amount of storage
iter to be impounded behind the
Benham Falls dam, approximately
440.000 acre feet.
The Tumalo project would have
first call on any water not used by
the north unit, it is intimated. An ef
fort will be made to Induce north
unit officials to work in co-operation
.with the other units and if this
fails, the question will be put square
ly up to the state engineer.
RESERVOIR DRA1X FEARED
Geological Report Submitted . on
Deschutes Irrigation Project.
BEND, Or., July 22. (Special.) The
most serious potential drawback to
the construction of the Benham Falls
storage reservoir, ten miles south of
Bend, the key to the Deschutes irri
gation project,' outlined in the co
operative .state and government sur
vey of 1914 is the presence of a large
lava tunnel, locally known as Dilman
cave, approacning the reservoir site
obl:quely from the east, and constituting-
a possible drain ior the
waters of the Deschutes, if impound
ed, according td the geological report
of Professor W. O. Crosby, extracts
from which were received here today
from Washington, D. C.
Acting for the United States recla
mation service, Professor Crosby made
an extensive examination of the
reservoir site last year, the results
of which ara embodied in his report.
He recommends that a further survey I
be made to establish, if possible, the
relation of the lava tunnel to the pro
posed re3ervoir, and suggests that if
the outer part of the site be found
not water tight, that a lower dam
thin that originally planned could be
constructed, and development of the
Crane Prairie reservoir location far
ther up the Deschutes undertaken to
provide additional storage of surplus
flow.
The construction of the Bsnham
Falls reservoir would artificially re
produce the natural lake some 20
miles in length which ages ago cov
ered the bed of the upper Deschutes
until the water had eaten Its way, in
tho course of centuries, through the
lava flow which dammed its course.
