A NOTABLE MEETING.
-' B"8HE meeting of governors and
. I other dlatlngulshed men at the
1 I White House today trill be the
. ' first of Its kind ever held In
this country, both as to Its purpose
and as to Its personnel. It is there
fore notedly unique, and . It took
. Roosevelt to devise and bring about
such a conference, which will no
doubt be followed by like conven
tions at frequent Intervals, to the
great good of the country. , v
It Is regrettably manifest that the
"""people are being very poorly served
by congress. Roosevelt does what
. he can to Induce congress to do
something for the people, but Ms di
rect efforts are In vain; hence he has
v called on the governors, and experts
In various lines, to come together
publicly and help him out, help cre
ate or rather express public sentt-
ment; and this will undoubtedly,
within a very few years ,if not to
mediately, have a great effect upon
' congress, that In so many matters so
grievously misrepresents the people
-' This great convention Is called "to
consider the - question of the con
servation and use of the great funda
mental resources of wealth of this
natlon.w This"ls truly, a vast, vital
subject., IJ.I8, as the president said
in his opening address, "the weight
lest problem now before the nation1
yet congress totally Ignores
' There are indeed a number of differ
ent subjects and problems to be con
sldered, . but all relate back to the
general Idea of handling, conserving
and developing natural sources of
, wealth for the .benefit of the whole
people, so as to secure the greatest
. good to the greatest number, not
merely now, but for the future. -
; As the president points ' out, the
" public lands are mostly gone, the
coal and Iron have passed from the
people's possession; .. waterpower
rights are i being appropriated, and
t ransportatlon is monopolized be
cause waterways are not opened up
"In the past," he says, we have ad
rained the. right of the individual to
Injure the future of the Republic for
his own . present profit. The time
has come for a change. As a people
we have the right and the duty, sec
ond to none other but the right and
duty of obeying the moral law, of re
quiring and doing Justice, to protect
ourselves - and ovr children against
the wasteful development of our nat
ural resources." -
IRRIGATION IN OREGON.
0
NE of -the weightiest public
problems in Oregon is irriga
tion. It will become more and
'more important in the near
future, as added areas of arid land are
taken up for reclamation. There is
no, other -subject of such vital interest
in eastern Oregon. It will take on
greater importance in western Ore
gon, where ultimately there will be
more and more resort to reclamation.
Nor is any problem in the state so
complex. ' There are four parties at
interest in every reclamation .project
tinder the, Carey act.", They are the
AVashmgton:-govemieftti the state of
Oregon the irrigation . xorporation,
and the settlers. The rights of each
rare antagonistic They : break out
into violent and hostile, complications.
It in difficult en ouch to keen nesre
when there are but, two,' parties to a
contract." When there' are" three it is
more difficult." -"When there are four,
and one, is the red, tape bureaus at
Washington, it borders on the im
possibility. ; Because of the. millions
cf dollars involved in what are, and
what are yet to be the aggregates of
the money expended in irrigation,
and. because of the multitude of set
tlers who will become more and more
involved in the reclamation systems,
and "because of the vast meaning in
future wealth irrigation has for, the
development of eastern and "south
eastern Oregon, the subject assumes
immense importance.
It has also intimate and important
i bearing on the question of who is to
be the next senator from Oregon. t
There never was a time, and never
will be," in the history of Oregon
when a man of the equipment and
character of George E. Chamberlain
could be of so great service to Ore
gon as now, and during, the next few
years, in the senate at Waihington.
1 Primarily, he is probably more fa
miliar with public lands and public
land problems than any other man in
Orrgrtn: A policy of his administra-
arsd or )f i' friViff -ffi;re
has been his disentanglement of the
tangled affairs of, the school lands of
the " state, through his state land
agent, Oswald West' But what is in
finitely more, important is that he is
familiar ; with every detail Surround
ing the irrigation projects' of Oregon.
He has been on the ground, repeat
edly, has studied and has come into
mtimate' . contact ; with.-, the S plans, li
their every phase. Ia all these proj
ects, he'bas protected the rights of
the state and the irrigation companies
m; their dealings with the Washing
ton government,; and in turn has pro
tected the interests of the state and
the settlers in their dealings with the
irrigation companies. Because of his
intimate knowledge of the subject and
the facts, and because of his known
fairness, whenever and wherever
there has been, bitter strife and con
tention between the Washington gov
ernment, the irrigation corporations
and the settlers, each party at interest
has turned to him as the one man who
could and-would extricate-he -tangle
with fairness for all.. He has. the. ab
solute confidence of thes Washington
government, ; the absolute confidence
of the companies ' and the absolute
confidence of the settlers. He has
been on the claims of many of the
settlers, has listened .' to" their griev-
apces, and passed upon their, rights-
n the process, he has secured a ta-
roiliarity . with the details of the sys
tems, and become possessed of
knowledge that places him in position
to be of infinite value to Oregon, if
he should be elected to the senate.
n that body, and before the depart
ments at Washington, his knowledge
of the rights of settlers, their needs
and their- interests, his experience
with the situation, his general famil
iarity with the great subject of irri
gation, would be of great value to the
state, would be a source of great pro
tection to the settlers themselves as
well as to the state, and finally would
be an influence for promotion of rec
lamation projects to the further de
velopment and enrichment of Oregon.
He could do things for Oregon be
cause he knows, and could speak with
authority.

OREGON ON TRIAL.
OREGON citizens are on trial be
fore the country. Because they
have .Inaugurated people's rale
Instead ot boss rule, they have
been characterized as "a rabble."
Shallow eastern newspapers have re
ferred to them as "a mob." ' East
ern plutocrats treat with- derision
our efforts at direct legislation, di
rect choice of senator, and the peo
ple s right of veto. They declare
us Incompetent to exercise . these
rights, and -predict -failure. They
want us to fall, and want the citi
zen to again become the pawn fa
the politician to move about at will.
They want him to be an inanity, to
be hung on a peg and be kept there,
until bis boss comes along and takes
him to the polls and votes him. They
want citizens to be little packages
for bosses to keep In sacks for use
at convention time, and election time.
The day after the late primaries',
Hon. Ben Belling said the decision in
favor of Statement No.' 1 ; was the
best advertising Oregon had had in
years. He meant that thousands of
substantial people s la other - states
admired the verdict and -applauded
Qregoniana. So they did. They,' too.
are tired of boss rule and political
skulduggery. They want people's
choice of senator. They know what
legislative choice means and .: are
weary of it. They are sick of being
a politician'! pawn. They long to
