Califorifla'a attitude on the alien land bill, Clemens said, has caused a decided change of front in the Japanese feeling toward Americans, and this, coupled with the fact that he is not in sympathy with the educational propaganda of the orientals, caused his return to America. "The war with Russia," said Clemens today, "lias made Japan great in her own eyes. The boast of her people is that she is a nation of the first class, and the Alien land movement in Cali fornia is taken as an inference that she U not what she professes to he.

IS TIN INTO CUSTODY A young woman, well dressed and said to be a milliner, was taken In'o custody shortly after last midnight as she came from a resort for colored persons- at 165 Twelfth street, north, where she claimed she hud been taken without her consent. , The name of tho woman is withheld for the present as no charges hnve been placed against her. According to her story, she attendel a small party at the Multnomah hotel. When leaving there, a colored waiter assisted her into a taxicab, and got In himself. The young woman remarked at the time that she was slightly ill, and wanted a drink of wine. The col ored waiter said he would take her to a place where she could get it. Arriv ing at the Twelfth street resort, she was taken inside, but loft as soon as discovering the circumstances. It was while leaving that a patrol man stopped her. Police Sergeant Van Overn then led a squad of officers to the place for a raid, in which two col ored women and three coloreJ men were caught. -A larg.i quantity of liquor was also confiscated. Lillian Ramsey was round to he the proprietress, and was charged this morning in the municipal court with conducting a. disorderly house and selling iimr.

Cynical amusement at and hearty praise for the efforts of Secretary of State Bryan In. interfering in California's dispute with Japan are voiced hefe today by diferent London dallies.

It says Japan's proposal to refer the dispute to The Hague should be "accepted with effusion by such an enthusiast for international arbitration aa Mr. Bryan." It concludes: ' , "With so many hard nuts to crack in his own particular department, it seems unnecessary for this eminent idealist to dissipate his energies in preparing for the milennium." - " " .

Li YORK I THL' IBM DISTRICT PLANS ik Gl Umatilla County Gets 20,000 More Acres of Irrigated Lands as Result of Action Now Taken. y , The plans and specifications recently filed by V, B. Hinkle, engineer, in chief of the Teal Irrigation district,, wjth State Engineer John. H. Lewis, have been approved, and as a resu,lt, UmUUa county wlUadd another ?,.u00 acres to its area of irigafed lands. : ; : ?,' The district . lies 'south of the old. Uhiatilla meadows' and across the Uma tilla river 'from the United States- gov ernment project and the Furnish ditch project. '.. ' - -. . Rec6mmendations as to additional work "deemed necessary, for location, of reservoir and power sites were made. The plans are complete in detail of permanent survey and location of main line, tunnel, division dams and distribu ting system, and are sufficient for- the purposes of bonding the district for con struction work. Supply Za Bountiful, The reservoir, especially essential to the maintenance continuous power. j will also insure . water in plenty for the late summer months. The water suppiy-ls Camas creek and its tributaries, draining 150 square miles of the Blue mountain water shed now flowing into the John Day river. These streams will be diverted at an elevation of 4000 feet, and by a system of . flume and - pipe line con struction brought out of the creek can yons to the level of Camas prairie, a fertile mountain valley some 12 miles In width in the southern part of Uma tilla county; thence by 12 miles of ditch across to the ridge dividing the water sheds of the Umatilla and the John Day rivers; thence by tunnel two miles in length through the ridge and into the headwaters of Butter creek: thence through the natural channel of Butter creek some 36 miles down to the arid lands'xomprlsed in the district. Construction Flan Simple. The plan of- construction is simple ditch and flume building except the tun nel, which is considered the one big 'item. This requires two miles of solid rock work 6x8 feet in the clear. ! I It is estimated tha the tunnel work iwill cost from $15 to $20 per lineal foot.! j The distributing system is practically I all ditch work in a deep sandy loam and presents no complications. The esti mated cost exclusive or reservoirs, is $40 per acre. The building of the res ervoir wiil udd an extra cost of $15 per acre. , The reservoir site on Camas creek is located on what is known as the Bow-" man Meadows and comprises about "150 acres. The dam is located at the low est point on the meadows where the canyon narrows to a bottom width of 200 feet, with bedrock .contact on bot tom and sides. The dam will be 105 feet high with a top width of 20 feet, an upper slope of three to one, and a lower slope of two to one. A reinforced concrete core runs from a bedrock con tact to Within two feet of the top of the dam. The core is designed to be six feet wide on the bottom and one foot wide on top. Will Bulla Tunnel. A heavily reinforced concrete tunnel (six feet in diameter will be construct ed the full bottom width of the dam. ! arranged with proper regulation gates A j on the north side of the dam, with reg- acre feet, i The district and Its predecessor In I Interest, the Teel Ditch eompahv, has maintained gauging stations on tli Carries ' creek and its principal tribu taries, ;Cable ami llldaway, for the past four years, making measurement rec ords every week in the year. From this record Is deduced the following run of totals In acre feet; 1909. 14 1.478; 1910, 141.014; 1911, 141,263; 1912. 395,772. The maximum flow occurs in Mav i and June, w ith an average for these I months of about t40,000 acre feet. The minimum flow' Occurs In August and .-.September, when the average runs as t4ow as 1200 acre feet. ' j It is claimed that the water supply I Is sufficient for aH practical purposes ,- without the reservoir construction, ln ; asmuch as the irrigation season Is over for nearly all purposes before the canal would be operated at less- than full capacity. ' - - However, dropping from the end' of the tunnel Into a steep canyon leading down to Butler creek, there Is a fall of COO feet in the first 1 miles and ! 1200 feet ln the flrst ,v miles, making possible the development of an immense ! power sufficient to provide light and j transportation facilities to the district and 'neighboring territory now under i.ur.. contumou. new. The building of the reservoir would insure a continuous flow of water dur ing all months of the year. - The land to be Irrigated was formerly, held in large tracts for sheep range and dry land farming. The district was formed under the irrigation district law last August by the owners of the land. In the outset It was agreed among; the owners that the land must be subdivided into small tracts(and sold at non-speculative prices, in order to insure the sue. cessful bonding and subsequent working of the land. As a result, the holdings at present are in tracts of from 40 to 320 acres and over 100 individual land owners are represented In the district. An election will be held in the district In June to vote the bonds for the con struction of the project. Those inter ested in the'dlstrict claim that no diffi culty will be encountered In the sale of the bonds, as the proper settlement of the project is already assured. The owners 'have secured their land at nominal cost, ranging from $10 to $20 per acre, and are prepared to meet water right payments on such terms as may be provided in the bond Issue; or. in the event any difficulty Is encoun tered in the marketing of tho bonds, the owners propose to build the works by an acreage assessment annually upon their lands to.neet thecost if construction as this work progresses. , District Better Plan.
