Delegations of Irrlgatlonlsts to Be
Here From All Parts of State.
"The Irrigation Congress which will
be held here February It. 20 and tl.
will be of Interest not only from the
bearing It will hav on tb general de
velopment of th state," ld C. C.
Chapman, publicity manager of th
Commercial Club yesterday, "but also
from the sidelights It will present upon
tha politics of th Stat at th present
time. Letters received In response to
our call for the congress Indicate that
prospective candidates for various of
fices from every part of the state will
be present and this probably will add
much Interest aside from th regular
work of th meetings."
J. T. Chinook, superintendent of di
vision ona of the Water Board, haa no
tified the Commercial Club her that
ha will be present and that a strong
representation from the department he
represents may be expected. T. B.
Kay. State Treasurer and a member of

PRECINCT PLACES VACANT
Only One Files Candidacy for Com
mitteeman So Far.
-PeoDle complain of party politics be
ing controlled by cliques, yet hero Is th
first notlc of candidacy or a precinei
committeeman, and there ar 191 pre
rlnrfi In the county, making 38 pre
cinct committeemen to be elected by
the Republican and Democratic voters,"
said County Clerk Fields yesterday.
As ha spoke he held aloft tho notice
of candidacy of R. C Wright, of 170
East Aider street, who wishes to be
committeeman for th Republicans from
Precinct 93. f
'Nearly everyone admits that tna
Oorernnwot must be conducted through
Bartlea." continued th County tlom.
"yet party line are being lost sight
of. It mlrht bo different If the voter
would realize that they have It In their
power to control absolutely the party
organisations. I ney can cxeci mir pre
cinct committeemen Instead or having
them selected after th election. 1 sup
pose the trouble la that many men
think this Is too small an office to
run for. but I disagree with that view.
In my estimation It Is quit Important."

should act along that line for-both oc
casions and has recommended that tha
committee hold-a joint session with the
ways and means committee of th City
Council to work out a plan.
"I favor having a good plan or il
lumination on the bridges." said th
Mayor yesterday, "and have therefor
asked the lighting committee to con
sider this subject. The members will
meet with the ways and means com
mittee or the council soma time In th
near future to work out a plan. It
seems to me this will be a nice way of
showing th city's Interest In these
events."

of tha General Land Office baa directed
tha La Grande land office to notify
every water user within the project
shown by the record of that office
to be still owing any part of their

Jn obedience to aucn direction, notices

There were over 350 registered letters,
and the amount shown on all the no

have been conditioned so that water
right claimants were not delinquent
until March SI, and payments made at
Hermlston on or before that date have
been recognized even if received at
the land office after the date. While
it Is not announced that a different
rule will be followed this year, yet
the officials of the land office desire
to attract the attention of all water
users having payments to make, that
the dates used in connection with pav
ments refer to the time the payments
should be made at the local land office,
and not to the date mailed or other
wise. Therefore, promptly after March
1, 1912. a report will be made on each
entry shown by the land office books
to be delinquent on that date.
