(Sl-m Burn of Th Journal.) , Balem. Or.. May IS. An act of con. rrese approved March 15, which amends the Carey act. 1 regarded by the state engineer's office as a great Doon in inia state to tha mora rapid reclamation of lt arid lands. Tha act removes much of the red tape formerly necessary to withdraw acreage under tha Carey act for reclamation and nas maae it pos sible to withdraw lands now within a few days, temporarily, or on approval for one year, so that the state can e-o ahead at once and cloaa negotiations with tha eontsaetora for Its irrigation. Heretofore It naa heen necessary to wait for all tha cumbersome machinery of the Interior department to start mov-. lng and wait until aurveya and Investi gations could be ; made before the atata could o ahead with the project. ; Now the eecretary of the Interior may upon the application of tha proper state of ficer, withdraw acreage temporarily from settlement or entry pending the investigation and the making of maps and aurveya. At the end of the year tha state must present its maps and Plata and apply to have the segregation permanently withdrawn. :rv'-"- TJndfsr the act as It formerly existed it was Impossible to ' announce new reclamation projects for fear that set tiers would rush In and take the land. so slow did the governmental machin ery move. Now ,,. the project will go ahead and the governmental machinery can move at Its leisure. ,; The lands will be restored to entry If all the former requirements before demanded are not compiled with within a year, just as formerly, so that the Interests of the United States arc as fully protected as before.

After a "dry" spell of 11 months the saloons of Rock ford were permitted to reopen for busi ness today by virtue of the new liquor ordinance passed -by the city council The city authorities in deciding to again permit the sale of liquor have at ' the same time taken steps to prevent the city becoming as wer" as a sponge. In other words, they intend to keep the lid in readiness to be damped down if the saloons do not conform to the strict regulations prescribed for the con duct of their business. The order has gone forth that the saloonkeepers are not to treat nor permit treating In their establishments.

Or- May IJ. vReport comes from Hermlnton that the thousands of beautiful redslde trout which Inhabit the waters of the reservoir oa the gov ernment reclamation project out from that town are dytna; of starvation. They are being caught there by the score, but the flesh Is soft and of a poor flavor. When countless numbers of these trout were found floundering In pools on the project last fall It was thought that the . work . of destruction by the rkovernment '.engineers had been com plete and that all that had found their way Into the reservoir had died In the irrigation ditches. However, It seems that a few thousand were left In the artificial lake, and are now swarming at tha outlet of the feed canal In an effort to get back to the river, ' As the water In the reservoir la now within a few feet or the top. It will be possible to erect a fish ladder by which means they can escape. President O. I. La Dow of the local anglers association and Deputy - Fish Warden Turner are taking measures to have such a ladder constructed, r ' - " , CALDWELL JAIL BURNS; .
