THE OREGON DAILY JOU RNAL, PORTLAND, OREGON
SECRETARY FALL
i LEAVES FAVORABLE
IMPRESS ON WEST
" Only the committee 'which traveled
from Kastern and Central Oregon to In
terview Albert B. Fall,, secretary of the
Interior, remained in the city this morning-
as evidence that Portland -was the
host Thursday of one of President Hard
ing's cabinet officers.
With as little formality as his coming
the secretary and accompanying depart
ment officials slipped out of the city
Thursday night to go to Tacoma for a
visit to . Rainier national park. And de
spite tlie -trief time given committee
men, they, with every other business man
'who met the secretary, ;felt confident
thai? the-Wst can have faith In the new
interior department head.
Secretary Fall had little time to give
committees because he was forming his
own opinions and : "making no decisions
yet," and 'because he; was anxious to
spend as ' much time as possible on the
Columbia river highway.
PROUD OF HIGHWAY
In his anxiety to visit the, Columbia
drive he was not the least disappointed.
From IP until 11 o'clock in the morning
he conferred with visitors at the Mult
nomah hotel and at 11 o'clock he left
for the highway trip, returning late In
the evening, about an hour before his
train departed for the north.
"I don't blame the people of Portland
for being proud of their Columbia high
way," -said the secretary upon his re
turn. "In my day I have, traveled over
many scenic roads but this road of yours
is beyond a doubt the most marvelous I
route I have ever been over."
i In 'conclusion the distinguished visitor
promised that he would spend as much
of his time in the West as possible dur
ing' his term of office and also promised
ta ; urge President Harding to come to
the Northwest for "the revelation of a
lifetime."
FAXMI3TG IS DISCrSSED
; A. P. Davis, director, of reclamation
f of the department, joined the party
Thursday night and left for the North.
Thursday noon Davis spoke before the
agricultural committee of the Chamber
of Commerce at its weekly luncheon.
Davis spoke on the advantages of In
tensive and Intelligent farming and de
clared that the West should have the
full support of congress on irrigation
matters at all times because of the value
of this develonment work to the nation.
I "the party Journeyed into the 'state of
Washington in the private car of E. O.
MeCormick. vice president of the South
ern Pacific railway system, who accom
panied the party. Other members of the
party were Stephen T. Mather, director
of national parks ; W. M. Reed, chief en
gineer of . the Indian service ; William j
McMurray, general passenger agent, and
A. S. Edmonds, newly elected traffic
manager for the O-W. R. N.

Proposal toReclaim
27,000 Acres Near
Redmprid; Is. Made
Salem. Aug-. J. A plan for the recla
mation of 27.000 acres 'of land in the
Central Oregon Irrigation district, near
Redmond, in Deschutes and Crook coun
ties! was presented to the state desert
land board. Thursday, by Oswald West
and J. C Potter, representing the North
Canal company, and Walter Daly, rep
resenting the Title Jk Trust company of
Portland. The proposal was taken
under advisement. -
The North Canal company Is a new
corporation organised for the purpose of
taking over certain remaining Interests
of the Central Oregon Irrigation com
pany, in Deschutes county and tor the
reclamation of additional lands. The
proposed reclamation will -embrace one

Sldink in .Thresier - i
- Starts Near-Panic !
Yersaine. Ohio," Aug. SC. OZ. P.)
There was a near-panic among threeh-
era at Oscar Worch's farm when a tana
band pitched an animal Into the thresh-
In machine with a bunch of wheat "ItJ.
was a skunk.
A combination of levers and windlass
baa been Invented that can be attached
to any dump wagon to enable one man .
to lift Its sides when heavily loaded.
Biff ! Bang! Boom!
'Wet Goods' Splash
In Great Explosion
Meagre details of a cellar "tragedy.1
in which a dozen bottles of newly-made
wine and 10 quarts of home brew were
wrecked In an explosion that shattered
plaster, rattled crockery, and struck ter
ror in the peaceful neighborhood of the
near-east side, have reached police head
quarters. 1
The debacle, which has smashed the
reputation of an amateur brewmaster
and left a nightmare of regrets for those
whose thirst for refreshments goes un
slaked, incidentally terminated an ill
fated partnership in the liquid venture.
; Who owns the "wet goods" that es
caped the "catastrophe" the man of the
house or his partner? That is the ques
tion, that has wrecked the partnership. -
The explosion, or series of blasts, went
off about the noon hour, when the mem
bers of the family were seated at the
dinner table.
"Bang ! bang ! rattlety bang ! went the
overcharged wet goods like' a battery ot
. four-pounders.
The gushers of foam sprayed the ceil
ing and rivulets of delicious wine and
the amber fluid battled for first honors
in the residential scuppers.
Cinrcumstantial evidence indicated
that the wine bottles opened the bom
bardment, and that the home brew con
tainers stampeded in' the free-for-all.
All that was left of the growler were a
few Jar tops and the wine bottle caps
alone told their story of the carnage.
The disheartened brewmaster gathered
' up the fragments and estimated his dam
ages at $11.60 for the liquids. The pro
prietor of the premises will put in a
. claim for damages to- his property, it is
said.

His desire to enter bondage, however.

cinles. -
He is confined in the county jail here.
