To the Editor of The Journal The govern ment engineer are busy - In thla vicinity making surreys, obeerva tlone, etc, relative to the location of a site for a atorage reservoir In the foothills wherein to accumulate water for use In irrigating. I am not a prophet, neither the son of a prophet y but I venture to say, let the report of these engineer be what It may, that Jt will be many years before any of the land In Umatilla valley will be brought under water through these atorage reaervolra. It la well known that our government moves' very slowly in all of it undertakings, and I saxmlse It will move slowly In these Innovations, But aside from thla It aeema to me that, at least In thla Instance, the pow era are moving In the wrong direction for, taking It the year through, there la enough water flowing through the Una tJUa river to water more, than they can hope to Irrigate by the atorage reser voir, etmply by the construction of ca nala and the use of that water at flood aeaaon. Suppose a canal was taken out of the Umatilla at Barnhart then run the ditch around south of Echo, by Galloway and on over the divide Into Columbia river valley, near Coyote. Such a canal would water about 200,000 acres, and there la plenty of water for thla for eight months In the year. It 4a a-well known fart that a large area of Umatilla meadowa and Butter creek country 'la aerved by water for a much shorter period of time than that each year and yet the result on land thua Irrigated la that apparently full cropa are produced. At any rate four bit aage brush land la thus made worth from $100 to 1200 per acre, baSed on Its yield of Alfalfa alone. Some of the land on Butter Creek never has water for more than two montha of the year and yet yields full crops. Some will aay that this excessive di version of flood water would cause the Umatilla to go dry, but In this connec tion I desire to call the attention of the reader to Bulletin 124. Issued by the United States senate, giving the mes sage of our late president, William Mo TJatnoatloa of the Coast " San JTranclaco, Sept 14. To the Editor of Tha Journal. Recently the press ha contained much- concern lng Germany alnce lta unification. The Empire haa, ' alnce tha war with the third Napoleon, nearly reached tha high standard of Oreat Britain In tha ex port trade, Aa a manufacturer aha la In atead of a number of petty province and atatea the German Empire aa a unit Is now a world power that Russia, Oreat Britain and France, muat deal with. Italy, Austria and other once powerful nations, bow to Germany; no longer are they potent factor In the world a gov ernment la not thla a lesson for the Pacific coast in dealing with national. and particularly Paciflo coast matters T Time was, when gold brought Ha thou sands of settlers to this coast that San Francisco, California and 'Tha Coaat" were aynonomou terms. Later, Oregon declared her Independ ence through dlsect rail communication with the East, cutting out to an extent the absolute control San Francisco had over the coaat trade; then came Seattle and Tacoma to divide these honors. On the South San Diego and Los Angeles came to the fore, each taking lta share of the original trade of the coaat As each of these centera grew Into promi nence, each believed It, with a capital I, would control the whole coast. Aa the matter stands It la a mooted question. One thing 4s certain. Unleaa the ooaat stands together. Its share of the "loaves and flshes" at Washington will be small Indeed. Oregon at one time failed of representation In the upper house at Washington, due to dissensions; Call fornla haa there been represented by bad men because the good men of the state would not. Or could not, combine on a good man; the state of Washington haa had a similar experience In her time. Seattle and Tacoma are more closely allied than the farthest sepa rated suburbs of Chicago, yet the two cities, that should pull together and soon be one great municipality, are at daagars drawn on every proposition. Meanwhile Portland haa flung down the gauntlet. and haa given these com mercial rivals a Paciflo coast project that should Interest every community, every good cltlsen living anywhere on this side of the great divide from San Diego to Victoria an Vancouver. The question should be "I Tow Can I, in my Individual capacity, or associated with my fellows, help Oregon .in the Lewis and Clark exposition, that celebrates the one hundredth anniversary of the annexation to the United States, of the only portion' of our common country ac quired by discovery." In 1900 the Commercial Newa of San Francisco, sent its representatives from San Diego to Victoria, arguing at each port with the boards of trade, or the leading commercial, organisation, by whatever name called, for a United Pa eiflc coaat sentiment. While the result may have been aatlsfactory from the counting room standpoint, it was evi dent when that special number waa is sued, that each port waa jealous of all rivals, and a united stand for "The Coaat" In national affairs, or In local af fairs, was the "lrridescent dream" of the optimist. This year, the Commer cial News of this city again endeavored to rally the commercial Interests of the coast and as a unit to work for Port land and the Lewis and Clark exposi tion. So far as I have observed, this is the only California paper to take a strong stand upon the subject The ob ject Is a laudable one. The whole press of the coast should fall into line and the merchant, miner, manufacturer, and far- THEATRES "jAjrxca acsmsBrrx." "Janice Meredith," Edward E.

"Janice Meredith" begins In May, 1775. at Greenwood, the country home of old Squire Meredith, a abort distance from Trenton, N. J. The stirring Incidents which fired the men of Concord and Lexington to a suc cessful resistance of the combined British and Hessian forces, are supple mented by the intrigue of Lord Clowes, and the romantlo love of the coquettish Janice and her soldier sweetheart, Charles, who having succumbed to her charms, becomes hondsman to her father that he may be near her. Throughout the play the hearts of men are enslaved by the Winsome colonial maiden, who turna her wiles to good ac count for the cauae of liberty and the aafety of the man she happily weda when the story haa been brought to a eatlafactory denouement by the surren der of Lord Cornwallla and hia troops at Yorktown.

'The addition to a stream of a greater volume of water than it carried origin ally would seem to partake of the mir acle of the loaves and flshes, but this Is not the case. These meaauremeata were made during the latter part of the Irrigation seaaon. The large,, Increase comes from the greater volume diverted when these. rivers run high. The fact that a stream like the South Platte, carrying only 28 second feet, should gain in less than 100 miles from the seepage of Irrigated fields nearly twice as much as It carried when It left the mountains, is significant of the benefits which are to come to Irrigators farther down by the further extension of the re claimed area above." Water used in irrigating is In large part returned to the drainage channela and can he again and again diverted for irrigation. On the Cache la Pondae creek, in Colorado, experiments recently made show that while the original dis charge In tha canyon was 127 cubic feet per second, tha volume at a point con siderably .lower down on the stream i had Increased to 214 cublo feet per sec ond after supplying 15 canals, and with out receiving additional material drain age; an addition of more than two thirds of the original volume, available to sup- j ply . canals lower down. .
