An agitation has began in Pendleton
to bore for artesian water. The East
Oregonian proposes to the people of
Pendleton . to organize an 'Artesian
Water Club" for the purpose of raising
funds to discover, if that be possible, ar
tesian water in that vicinity. A small
membership fee of 50 cents and monthly
dues of 10 cents, aud discussions, dances,
picnics, bicycle tours, and Sunday
amusements, for which those participat
ing in them will readily pay a fee of 10
cents, would in a few months raise a
fund ample to test whether artesian
water can be discovered or not.

ttera From Congressmen Hermann
and Ellis to the Commercial Club.
The memorial recently sent to our
congressmen by The Dalles Commercial
Club has elicited the following replies :
Washington, D. C, March 3, 1896.
Roger B. Sinnolt, Esq., Sec'y:
Dear Sib: I am in receipt of a me
morial from The Dalles Commercial
Club, asking congress to make addition
al appropriations to complete the work
at the Cascade Locks. The deleeation
will take immediate steps in that direc
tion, and renew our efforts to secure the
much-needed appropriations.
Very truly.
W. R. Ellis.
Washington-, D. C, March 3, 1896.
John S. Schenck, Esq., President.
Deae Sib : I have the honor to ac
knowledge' receipt of a communication
from The Dalles Commercial Club,
signed by yourself and Mr. Roger B.
binnott, secretary, with accompanying
papers, all relating to the locks in the
Cascades of the Columbia. In reply I
bee to assure, you and the very influ
ential body you represent that I shall
cheerfully co-operate with my colleagues
in congress to secure the desired legis
lation. Yours respectfully,
Bingeb Hermann.
Mr. Gonrlay's Lecture.
Mr. Hugh Gourlay proposes to lecture
at the Baptist church on the 18tb inst.
on the eubject of "Civil and Religious'
Liberty vs. A. P. A. ism from the stand
point of a Protestant American Citizen."
Speaking to a Chronicle reporter he
said that his object in delivering the
lecture was not to foment discord among
the different religious beliefs, but to
quench the spirit of intolerance which
he believes is fast coming to the surface.
He says if he thonght his lecture would
do aught to fan tha. flame of religious
discord he would keep quiet forever.
He claims therefore his mission is peace
ful, and that he desires only to pour oil
upon the troubled waters. Asked if he
would reply to Rev. E. B. Sutton's re
cent lecture, which he attended, he said
he would not attack it as a whole, but
that he would show many things claimed
by that speaker to be fallacies. . He said
his lecture was intended to be an appeal
to American fairness and justice, and
that he would so interpret history as to
show that our Catholic citizens have al
ways been loyal to the country and its
institutions, an di that the pope has never
interfered in American affairs.
Mr. It owe Returns.
Mr. F. H. Rowe has just returned
from California. He hastened home
some two weeks before he intended, ow
ing to the report of the Joss of logs by
the breaking of the jamb in the Klick
itat river. He finds the loss is not
nearly so bad as he feared. The mast of
the logs were saved by a second boom in
the Columbia below the mouth of the
Klickitat. The breaking of the jamb
was, however, a fearful sight. Logs
were piled up fifty feet high and when
they broke there waa a fearful crash.
An Indian living near by thought the
world was coming to an end, and left
his cabin for higher ground.

Telegraphic correspondence . from
Washington to the Oregonian contains
the following :

fight for the Willamette project, as re
cently published in the Oregonian.
ThiB and the improvement of the Yam
hill river he wants to secure provision
for in the coming" bill. Another work
regarded of great importance is the cas
cade locks. The engineers think a con
siderable emergency has arisen, be
cause the canal on the inside is not
reveted, and loose earth enters the canal
and dissolves, which may result in a
permanent injury to the canal and
locks. He is struggling for an appro
priation of $179,000 for revetting the in
ner walls and protecting the outer walls.
It is thought in some quarters that the
canal cannot be used until this is done.
Memorials of both the Astoria and
The Dalles chambers of commerce have
been presented by Mr. Hermann to the
committer, in which the early comple
tion of the boat railway at The Dalles is
sought. It appears that the right-of-way
business is not yet entirely cleared
up, and hence -there is a very great
doubt about securing any further ap
propriation for this purpose at this
session of congress. Until there is
something more tangible to work on,
congress will not be likely to do any
thing. H has been the absolute pjan of
congress for marry years to do nothing in
tha way of government improvements
until the title tothe land upon which
the improvements are sit uated are vested
in the government beyond any question
of doubt. j
