schemes were explained this morning
at the. Imperial hotel by William J.
Lachner of Baker City, a member ' of

second district on the Republican ticket.
It is estimated that the canal and
ditches for . the reclamation of i,000
acres of land adjacent to Baker City
will coat- about 1260.000," said Mr.
Lachner. "That will give the land an
additional valua of IS an acre as soon

flood gates. . The water will be the flood
waters from the Powder river. It Is to
be stored in huge semi-natural reser
voirs. Before reaching the reservoirs
the water will pasa through a tunnel
almost 1.000 feet long. to be bored
through a mountain between the river
and Baker City. ...Work Is now being
done, uppn the canal and tunnel.
The electiie line wul coat about .nail
a million. It will be closely allied with
the water power plant, that will cost
half that sum. The power plant will
be. .located about 0 miles from Baker
City on Eagle creek. The railroad will

are very often perceptible, and the
odor of their breath contaminated the
atmosphere of a whole room. Such

or cigars from- saloonkeepers. Tou know
well that were you not an officer
these people would not give you drinks

Every time an officer accepts a free
drink or a cigar from a saloonkeeper
he Is guilty of graft and unless this

Some time ago a computation was
made of the aggregate amount expended
by aaloonmen In furnishing detectives
and patrolmen with drlnka and cigars

the total annually given la this manner
is almost II 1.000.

Indications are that the entire district-

ness for this evening. The securing of

any In the city, that will be backed by
capital sufficient to erect a big block
for the needs of the store, and that will

of stock and prices. Is the goat

association wants, ' according to ths
statsments made by the members pres
ent at laat week's meeting. Is a store so
big that eaat aide residents will go out
of their way to trade there. ,
A wide Interest has been taken In the
meeting, and - plans of ths association
and from the most distant suburbs have
come assurances of support from" the
district Improvement clubs. The gen
eral impression among , business men
seems to be that such a' store would be
