NEWELL GiVES ONE SIDE
HEKMISTOX FOLK TAKE RECLA
MATION" SERVICE TO TASK.
What Eastern Oregon Projects Want
Is Business Administration
Working- for General Good.
The following letter comes to The
Oregonlan from Hermlston, with the
request that It ba published without
the writer's name. It may be regarded
aa presenting a Hermtston view of the
subject treated:
"Hermlston. Or, Oct. 7. F. H. Newell,
chief director of tba Reclama
tion Service, In bla interview aa pub
lished, gives but one side of the situa
tion on tbe Government projects, name
ly: That tha apeculator is the great
octopua that baa fastened Itself upon
those projects, retarding their growth
and development.
"The ownera of land on tba Umatilla
project are not speculators, but men
who tiled on this land prior to the time
the Government had made any attempt
at reclamation and bad spent over 111,
000 in construction of canals and sur
veys before deciding, upon certain rep
resentationa of the Government being
mada them, to take water from tbe
Reclamation Service, Those men who
were here before the Reclamation Serv
ice thought of putting in a project are
ready to sell their land at a reasonable
price In nearly every Instance. There
may be aoma isolated cases of an ex
orbitant price being asked.
-When the director talks of alfalfa
land being worth only 3100 per acre. It
Is abaurd. Land la worth what It will
produce a revenue on. and alfalfa over
one year old baa paid 10 per cent on a
valuation of S3S0 an acre thla year.
Other crops on small areas where prop
erly fertilised bava done much better.
Conditions here are no better than in
any new locality. Several ye ere must
ba passed In getting the soil to pro
duce paying crop.
"If such a revenue can ba derived
from thla land, the question naturally
will arise, "Why la It not In cultiva
tion T Tha first reaaan Is that only
email tracts of 30 and 40 acree can be
handled to advantage, and thla necessi
tates the cutting up of those holdings
of 1(0 acres. If those holding desert
claims are willing to aell at a reason
able price lsnd that will produce a
revenue on 1354 an acre, why la It not
aoldT Thla brlnga ua to the otber side
of the question.
"Prior to the entrance of the Govern
ment on tb project, there had, been
'soma 1400 acres homeateaded and 13.000
seres filed oa aa desert claims. Those
desert claims generally consisted of 320
acres each, and when tha entryman
holding this amount of desert land de
cided to take water from the Govern
ment he relinquished one-half of bis
holding, aa the reclamation act only
permits holding not to exceed 160 acres
to receive water from the Government.
This reduced the holdings to about 4000
acres of deaert land.
"When accepting water from the
Government instead of through their
own system, that had been partly con
structed, those desert entrymen were
assured that they could prove up and
get-patent the same as under a private
system. The homesteaders were prom
ised the same thing that they would
be allowed to prove up under the
homestead law.
-This arrangement was entered into
In January. 190. and on June 37. 1904,
we find an act of Congress making It
Impossible to give deaert land entry
men patent until tbe whole of the
water right payments are made, hold
ing up tha patents for ten years on tha
(0U0 acree of desert land. The patents
were granted to homesteaders aa prom
ised. , .
"By comparing what has been dona
with the land contained in these home
steads that patent was granted for as
promised and what haa been done with
the desert claims that patent has been
withheld on. contrary to promises, wa
may be able to find that mora than
the speculator has retarded tha de
velopment of the project We will take
the homestead of F. A. Yates, consist
ing of 160 acres one-balf mile from the
depot at Hermlston, and also one-half
miia from tha business center. This
claim was proved up on the patent
Issued in 1908 and today there are ten
residences on the tract with families In
each. There are 70 acres of orchard:
50 acrea in alfalfa and the balance
In sraDea. vegetables, etc., with but
two acrea of tha entire 160 that is not
HeveloDed arJ farmed.
"Grace Furnace owned 160 acres of
desert land 100 Tarda from the depot
and 100 yards from tha business part
of Hermlston. A 123.000 school ouiia
lng was also erected on three acres of
It. Final proor was maae in isub, luumu
satisfactory, but patent withheld with
the result that there is not a residence
of anv kind on it. There Is not $100
worth of improvements on It and at
Mr. Newell's valuation of an acre it
Is worth not over $900, Improvements
end all, while the Tates land win readi
ly sell for from $50,000 to $60,000.
"Mr. Newell Is challenged to ahow
any reason why Grace Furnace's desert
claim should not have been as well de
veloped. In part at least, as that of
F. A. Tates, but for the mistaken
policy of withholding the patents.
"In the face of facts that could be
multiplied In other similar instances
sny reasonable man la asked whose
fault It Is that those 6000 acres of
desert land In the Umatilla project He
undeveloped.
-Another feature that Mr. Newell for
got to mention that is retarding the
development of this project is that
settlers are not treated as they were
promised. In the early days of thts
project the land holders were repent
ly assured by the project engineer
that water for Irrigation would be
broucht 'to the highest practical point
of each holding consisting of not less
thsn 40 acres.' That is, that the water
would be brought to each 40 acres un
less the holding contained more than
that, when It would be brought to that
holding. Notwithstanding that affi
davits have been forwarded to Washi
ngton officials acquainting them with
tha promises made, yet there are men
today who are told xou must. pi in
nine line costing over izouo to get
water to pour 40 acres or do without
It." and this cost of $50 an acre for a
pipeline la In excess-of the payment of
$60 an acre entered into by tne seiner
for water.
"Is It any wonder that good home
steads have been lying hero for two
years without takers, with such a
policy of faithlessness being pursued?
Men are waiting and anxious to re
claim their land, but cannot afford to
maka such an outlay as asked by the
Government to get the water do their
land. Would any sensible man expect
to find anything on this project under
such conditions but sagebrush? Is It
any wonder that there are vast
stretches of vacant and desert land on
all Government projects?
"Mr. Newell. In dealing with the
west extension of the Umatilla project,
ssys it will not be built until the peo
ple owning the land required for the
reservoir site are willing to sell at a
certain price, namely, $100 per acre for
alfalfa land and $5 per acre for desert
land. Does the gentleman know that
there are men living on some of this
land that they require for their
reservoir who have been there 40 years
and have made themselves comfortable
homes In one of the best climates on
God's green earth? Does he know that
there Is alfalfa land rented, 160 acres
In a block, at $18.60 per acre? Those
men do not want to sell. They are
not asking the Government to buy, as
they believe they have one of the best
things on earth, not excepting ex
ploiting by the Government. Now, if
a price cannot be agreed upon, which
haa never been tried as yet, then con
demn and let the price be fixed. This
talk that if someone does not give their
land for half what it is worth, then
the Government won't do thin or that
is more becoming to the tactics of a
school boy than a man at the head of
the expenditure of millions.
fWhat the Government projects want
is a good business administration; some
one who is not afraid that a speculator
will make a dollar, but a man who Is
big and broad enough to grasp the
salient points that will make for the
general good and strong enough to
recommend them."

A. Phemister Proctor Is best known

subjects in bronze, a "Moose," "Tar

collection, and his "Indian on Horse

Besides these, however, there Is a con

Proctor. These are almost all studies
of wild mountain scenery or of wild

Blisters Formed, Skin Scaled Off,

One Cake of Cuticura Soap and
One Box of Cuticura Ointment.
"About two months ago my hands started
to crack open and bleed, the skin would
scale off, and the good flesh would burn and
itch dreadfully. W hen my
hands first started to get
sore, there were small
blisters like water blisters
which formed. They
Itched dreadfully, it just
seemed ss though I could
tear the skin all off. I
would scratch tbem and
the skin would peel off,
and the flesh would be
all red and crack open
and bleed. It worried me
eery much, as I had never had anything the
matter with my skin. I was so afraid I would
have to give up my employment.
"I consulted my doctor, and he said ha
didn't think It would amount to anything.
But It kept getting worse. One day I saw
a piece in one of the papers about a lady who
had tbe same trouble with her hands. She
had used Cuticura Soap and Ointment and
was cured. I decided to try them, and my
hands were all healed before I had nsed one
cake of Cuticura 8osp and one box of Cuticura
Ointment. I am truly thankful for the good
results frcm the Cuticura Soap and Ointment,
for thanks to them I waa cured, and did not
have to lose a day from work. 1 have had
no return of the skin trouble." (Signed) Mrs.
