The people of this oounty feel that Secretary Hitchcock has not been correctly informed regard ing the Malheur irrigation project and that the Inland empire of which Malheur forms art Important ' part ' la unfairly dealt with. . ' The project as planned proposed to reclaim about 100,000 acres of land. Of this the government Is supposed to own about le.ooo acres, the road company about 15.000 acres, and patented land owners the balance. i . ' Whistler first reported that It would cost less than ISO an, acre to Irrigate thla district and he asked that the peo ple sign up at that figure, Ths people got together and slgnedTUP their hold ingff t - --fcr wy KfmrHniit gent. Later the government sent In another set of surveyors and then re ported that It would cost $41 en acre to Irrigate the territory. The cltisena then got together and they signed at the new figure. - 1 . , The road company has been the stick ing point -to ali outward appearances. It has agreed to closs out its holdings within a certain period of time and If at the expiration ot that time the aame .are not closed out then the government shall take the same over and close them out for it. i This project is one of ths most feas ible In. the stats and there seems to be no reason why It should not be com pleted. The territory Is one large plain, with just enough fall to locate reservoirs and ditches with easy grades over the art oflhrH1 wrtme project -Is fed Ay the Malheur river, but there is an addition of probably 40",00 to (0,000 acres of land which can -be reached ' by Bully creek and Willow creek, and that project has an estimate of 124 an acre. . -v , The Dalles military road grant covers probably one-third of that section and thst land 'is for ssle at' ths present time. . Ths owners of this grant are anxious to have their land taken Into the Irrigation project and it la under stood will comply literally with the government's requirements. That land is also surveyed by the government sur veyors. and there Is no reason why, even If the government will not irrigate the bigger Malheur district, that It win not take up this lesser project tnd push It to a termination. - y EACH0SAGEINDMI1 IS A CROESUS Tribe Is the Richest Community on Earth Average Income Is Fifteen Hundred.

Congress will once more attempt to settle ths question of ths. distribution of the Osage Indian fund and the allotment of the Osage lands at the coming session.

In addition to this the reservation owned by these Indians comprises 1,470,000 acres of the most desirable land in the ' territory of Okla homa. It Is proposed to divide this reservation and aaslgn te each member of the tribe 160 acres, or In other words, 200 acres to the family, and to sell the remainder, consisting of 1.1M.O0O acres, for their benefit. It this plan ta carried out ths treas ury department will hold to the credit of the Osage Indians approximately 250,000,000, giving each Indian a trust fund of 220,000, and at the rate of Inter est now paid by the government, each family 'Will have 21.000 In .addition to too acres of the choicest agricultural land In the southwest. ; . .
