EFFORT TO SECURfe IRRIGATION
The inoyement started by the
Farmers Union last week for
the purpose of securing govern
ment aid in irrigating a large
area of land in this end of the
county fs one of the most im
portant steps ever taken in this
Section. The effort to secure
irrigation in no manner reflects
upon, the worth of this section
as a drj' farming district, bttt is
the result of a condition that
applies with equal force to any
dry farming district, and which
is, the large acreages required
for successful farming in semi
arid regions because of the ne
cessity 0 summer fallowing
All realize that dry farming
cannot be conduoted with profit
upon 160-acre tracts and that
the small landowner will grad
ually and surely be eliminated,
until this becomes entirety a
district of farms of large acre
age. The only remedy is irri
gation, under which successful
and profitable farming can be
conducted upon small tracts,
for the soil in the Madras coun
try is remarkably productive
when favored with sufficient
moisture. As the principal pur
pose of the Reclamation Service
is to provide homes for the
many where only a few could
ee'ctire a livlihood before, this
section of the state should offer
a very attractive field for opera
tion. It is understood that the gov
ernment Reclamation Service is
not averse to operating in sec
tions which have already come
,into the hands of private own
ers, but in tact prefers puch dis
tricts for reclamation work,
where terms can be arranged
with the settlers withont too
much discord. On the other
hand the government will not
enter a field where there is dis
cord and frivolous objection to
reasonable terms offered, and
there, have been instances in
this state where it has aban
doned proposed projects be
cause 01 tnat Kind 01 opposi
tion. So far as can be learned
no opposition of that kind will!
..be met with in this county, but
j the settlers stand ready to work
in harmony with the Reclama
tion Service. This fact will be
assured the Reclamation Ser
vice by the monster petition
which will be presented, and it
, will prove a strong faotor in se
curing favorable consideration;
of the Crooked River project.
puahed to Wiiipletion hs rip
idly oV p ossicle, But, as 'tion
Btiuction of thti North Bank
road requited two1 years, so may
construction of this Deschutes
canyon road, to a point where
it emerges fully into Middle
Oregon, require an fqual time.
These are among -the difficult
problems of railway construe
lion.
Whether the route by way of
The Dalles and the DesbhUte
River may, or may not, in tithe,
become the more general route
between Portland and 3an
Francisco, is as yet uncertain.
It may be a little longer) but
it will have the advantage of
lower grades, and may be found
shortest.'in point of time.
THE AMENDE HONORABLE
Work having actually begun
on the Des Chutes road it now
stands us nil in hand to sliou'
for its completion. Anj'howit
will be of great benefit to The
Dalles, for it is not likely that
a town will spring up at the
mouth of that river. Hence
this city will be the real junc
tion point. Aside from this
the Optimist will applaud the
enterprise, for we have all along
supposed Mr. Harriman wan
bin fling, and practically Baid
a 1
so. as we were in tiie wrong
we will now the more cheerfully
give mm credit lor going auead
with the work.-1-The Dalles
Optimist.

THE ACTUAL BEGINNING
Oreeonian .
It may be supposed tat npw
it will begin to be nhdQrstooci
. and believed that a railroad is
. to enter and . to penettate Mid
,dle Oregon from Hib Columbia
iiivex, near Tlieailea, tnrongq
the Deschutes canyon. It is
the easy way, .with lowest
grades. Experience, has taught
railroad men that lines which
afford least gradients, though
.initial construction may coBt
. more, are on tho whole cheap
est;, .cheapest not ohly for the
,railrdads, but in the long run
for Xhi) pottntry they serve,
j . To build a road through the
Deschutes canyon and to. enter
. Middle Oregon by this route, is
as great an undertaking as the
, North Bank toad froiri the
j.raouth of Buolte Eiyer to Port
.land. But active, work is be
