THURSDAY SEPT. 7, 1911 NEW RULING FAVORS DESERT LAND MEN Possible Now to Make Final Proof ond Gnt Title Before Securing Water Right Certificate The following article relating to a recent ruling in favor of desert land entrymen, is taken from the Salem Statesman: "The general land office yes terday made a ruling in favor of the desert land entrymen in this state, which enables an entry man on a desert claim to make final proof and secure title to his desert claim, before securing a final water right certificate from the state. The water rights for desert claims are initiated by fil ing a water right application in office of the state engineer. This application is subsequently ap proved and returned to the ap plicant, and is his authority to construct works and apply water to the irrigation of his claim. This application is analogous to the certificate the entryman re ceived from the land office, as the land office certificate is re placed by a deed after final proof, so is the water permit replaced by a final water certificate or deed, after the land is under ir rigation. "It was this water right certi ficate that the land office de manded of the entryman holding down a claim on the isolated des ert near Denio, 150 miles from the nearest railroad station a Winnemucca, Nev., and equally as far from the local land office at Burns. The matter was brought to the attention of State Engineer Lewis and he advised the general land office of condi tions, pointing out that proo; could be made on a desert claim in three years, while under the state laws five years is allowed ito complete appropriations for water. "It was also shown that such a ruling would operate greatly to the disadvantage of entrymen on isolated desert claims, enduring hardship in their endeavor to build up the state and at the same time make a living. A favorable reply to this appdal has been received and the entrymen will hereafter be required to furnish only the certified copy of a permit, and a statement from the state engineer to the effect that the failure to furnish such water right certificate is'not due to the applicant's non-compliance with the law."

FRED DAVIS, Postmaster REDMOND PLANNING TO WELCOME R, R, September 10th Is Date Set for Com pletion of Crooked Rlvor Bridge Trains Two Weeks Later October 1st is the date set by Redmond citizens for the cele bration of "Railroad Day," says the Spokesman. Chief Engineer Budd, of the Oregon Trunk road, was in Red mond last week and stated that the bridge over Crooked river would be completed about the 10th of September. The key span is expected to be placed in position the first of this week and several riveting gangs im mediately put to work to finish the structure in the least possible time. While the date for the first train into Redmond is officially set for October 1st. the chief engineer intimated that under i. j ii i , must iavoraDie conditions an earlier schedule mitrht bo cxi pected. The distance from Crooked river to Redmond is onlv eicrht miles and all efforts to finish this distance as soon as possible will be made by the railroad ofTmials in order to handle the colonist travel from the east which starts September 15th. The O.-W. R. & N. is nearlv completed to Culver Junction and from there to Bend will use the tracks of the Oregon Trunk road, thus giving Redmond a double train service. Redmond expects to entertain hundreds of visitors on "Railroad Day." Committees have been appointed and are laying their plans for a monster celebration, to oq field for two days. Excur sions will be run nunr hnrli fl.n Oregon Trunk and O.-W. R. & N. lines. The Redmond people expect this celebration to eclipse anything of the kind ever at tempted before in Central Oregon. - Resolution The Almighty Ruler of the Universe, in his wise providence, has broken the home ties of our friend and brother, John M.
