Hermlston, Or Jan. 13. The follow
ing telegram has been received by Henry
Sommerer in answer to a telegram sent
to the secretary of the interior in re
gard to the graduation of water right
payments on the Umatilla project: .

of payments under consideration by the
reclamation service but reported not
convincing. Final report to. the secre
tary will be made shortly and 'action
taken. Samuel Adams, Assistant Sec
retaryr . V . ., ' ': ; , ;.: ;l .
From . this telegram it, would seem
that the prospects for a graduation of
the water fight payments on the Uma
tilla project are not good. The settlers
mailed to the secretary of the Interior
last August a petition stating that they
wished tbe favor, but it would seem
that the secretary never received this
petition. It is thought' that tha head
of tha 1 reclamation service is not . in
favor of giving concessions io this proj
ect Other wires will be sent from the
people here, one' direct to the president
of the United States and one to the sec
retary, asking that a graduation of the
