Push i ng Away Obstacles
to Irrigation.
NEW LAWS WILL BE PASSED
Then Government Will Spend
$7,000,000 in Oregon.
FULTON At WORK ON BILLS
Use of Navigable Waters Must Be
Authorized, Beds of Lakes Ceded
and Private Rights Extin
guished In Klamath.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ingtdn, Jan. 7. If-plans formulated at a
conference today between Senator Fulton
and F. II. Newell, chief of the Reclama
tion Service, and bis assistants. J. B. Lip
pencott and Henry N. Savage, shall bo
consummated according to expectation,
the Government will be able during the
coming Summer to begin construction of
two enormous Irrigation projects In Ore
gon, one in the Klamath Basin, costing
$5,000,000 or more, the other on Malheur
River, costing 52,000,000. Senator Fulton
met the engineers to talk over the situa
tion and ascertain just what Is standing
in the way of construction o these great
works.
It was agreed that three material ob
stacles must be removed before the Klam
ath project can be formally adopted, not
withstanding it has already been ad
adjudged entirely feasible and declared to
possess many attractive features. This
project proposes not only to drain ixwcr
Klamath and Tule Lakes, but to lower
the level of Upper Klamath Lake and to
diminish the flow of Link and Lost Riv
ers by dlt-ertlng their waters Into irri
gating canals. All these waters are navi
gable and therefore cannot be used for
Irrigation save by special act of Congress.
To remove this obstacle. Senator Fulton
will co-operate with Senator Bard, of
California, and endeavor to get me mi
ter's bill passed through both houses this
Fesplon. He anticipates that no objection
will be raised.
States Must Cede Land.
Secondly, inasmuch as Lower Klamath
and Tule Lakes are to be entirely drained
and their beds utlmately Irrigated, the
Government insists that the States of
Oregon and California shall by appro
prlate legislation transfer to the Govern
ment title to lands lying under these
lntvcs. so that when drained they can be
disposed of to settlors under the National
Irrigation act Senator Fulton has as
surance that the Oregon Legislature will
pass the desired legislation and Senator
Bard Is advised that the California Leg
islature will do likewise.
The third obstaclo to be surmounted
Is to check the effort being made by
the Klamath Irrigation Company, con
sisting of California men, to obtain
the right to divert water from Upper
Klumalh Lake at its mouth through
the irrigation canal it is now building.
It is contended, that inasmuch as the
lake is navigable and as this company
proposes to divert more than its max
imum discharges at low water, the
pronent law precludes It from obtain
ing any water whatsoever. However,
to make sur.o on this point. Senator
Fulton saw the chief of engineers to
day and he has promised to grant this
company no water rights without the
authority of the "War Department. This
company cannot use this water. Its
echeme is shown to bo entirely spec
ulative, but It Is probable that in time
the Government may buy out its rights
when it buys the Ankeny canal, which
Is to become part of the permanent
Government diversion canal.
There appears to be a bright pros
pect of getting all three obstacles out
of the way before Congress adjourns.
When this is done, Mr. Newell gives
assurance that the Klamath project
will bo adopted, money for its con
struct ion will bo set aside and steps
will be takon towards building canals
and diverting water.
May Condemn Wagon-Road Land.
Already the Malheur project has been
held up several months because owners
of about 30,000 acres of alternate sec
tions of wagon-road lands along Mal
heur River refuse to make a contract
with the Government for the reclama
tion of their lauds. The reclamation
service saw no way of going ahead
with this project unless the owners of
these lands should chango their atti
tude, for, if the Government built this
projeot and Irrigated wagon-road
lands free of cost, there would be a
great outcry.
Inasmuch as the company has re
peatedly rejected all reasonable offers.
Senator Fulton has decided to cut the
Gordlan knot, and on Monday will In
troduce a bill which, he thinks, can be
passed, authorising the Secretary of
the Interior to condemn these wagon
road lands and pay the owners for
them out of the fund allotted to con
struct the Malheur project. If this plan
carries, the Government will acquire
these 30,000 acres at nominal cost
and -will in that way be able to place
them in the hands of individual set
tlers. Sonator Fulton declares that, while
he rights of this company 'Should be
duly rospected, the development of a
large section of Eastern Oregon can
not bo prevented by speculators. If
this bill passes, the only obstacle in
the way of the Malheur, project will be
removed and that work, for which 52.
00J.000 is already set aside, can begin
at once.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL
Few People Know How Useful It Is
In Preserving Health and Beauty.
Nearly everybody knows that charcoal
is the safest and most efficient disinfect
ant purifier in Nature, but few real
Ire Its value when taken in to the human
system for the same cleansing purpose.
Charcoal Is a remedy that the, more you
take of it the better; it is not a drug at
all, but simply absorbs the gases and Im
purities always present in the stomach
and intestines and carries them out of
the system.
Charcoal sweetens the breath after
smoking, drinking or after eating onions
' and other odorous vegetables.
Charcoal effectually clears and im
proves the complexion. It whitens the
teeth and further acts as a natural and
eminently safe cathartic.
It absorbs the injurious gases which col

fects the mouth and throat from the poi-
son of catarrh.
All druggists sell charcoal in one form

WILL ABOLISH VETO
Pope Puts End to Claim of
Catholic Rulers.
SECRET- BULL IS PREPARED
Veto Against Rampolla Causes 'Him
to Forbid Cardinals to Communi
cate Veto From Any Ruler
to Future Conclaves.
ROME, Jan. 7. One of the most Impor
tant acts thus far in the pontificate of
Pope Pius X has been embraced in a
secret bell, the text of which will not
be made public until the pontiff is dead,
when it will be read, as forming part of
the constitution in the next conclave
that will elect his successor.
The bull is in connection with the
claims of Austria, France and Spain to a
right to veto the election of any cardinal
to the papacy. All the cardinals have
not been Informed as to the contents of
tho document it having been drawn up
In accordance with a decision reached by
the cardinals living in Rome, with the
exception of Cardinal Rampolla, who is
absent from the city.
The bull Is the direct result of the veto
against Cardinal Rampolla, should he
have been elected successor to Leo XIII,
which was presented to the conclave Au
gust 2, 1903, by Cardinal Puzyna. biohop
of Krakow. Austria, at the Instance of
Emperor Francis Joseph.
Briefly, the bull says that all cardinals
are absolutely forbidden, under penalty:
of exclusion from the conclave and not
being allowed to vote, to be the bearer
of a message of veto, and that if any
cardinal, knowing the objection of his
ruler to the election of a cardinal, com
municates this objection to his colleagues
In the conclave, ho also will be excluded
and not allowed to vote
BRITISH TRADE IN 1904.
increased Exports of Cotton and
Woolen Goods, Decrease in Steel.
LONDON. Jan. 7.--The December state
mcnt of tho Board of Trade shows an in
crease of $2,628,500 in Imports and $17,293,000
in exports. The chief increase In imports
was in cotton fabrics.
The total imports. $2,756,510,620. and tho
total exports. $1,504,089,455, for 1904. are.well
ahead of all previous records. Apart from
the large increase In the exports of cot
ton and wool manufactures, the principal
features of trade were a decline of $11,
557.S35 in iron and steel, and $9,055,000 In
apparel, the former largely due to dlmln
lshed prices, the actual weight of the Iron
and steel exports being 300,000 tons below
those of 1933. The falling off In apparel
Is entirely accounted for by diminished
shipments of clothes to South Africa.
Of the imports, foodstuffs show a re
duction of $2,500,000. This would have been
much larger, but for the increase of $14.

Lesson Drawn fay Germany From Na

BERLIN. Jan. 7. "The only lesson to

torpedo-boat crews, in view of develop
ments of the present war, brought forth
this statement from a German naval ex
