The recent action of congress In passing Senator Bard's amendment to the Indian bill has put another defin ite task upon the reclamation serv ice. The secretary of the Interior Is now authorized to subdivide and util ize the Indian lands along the Colo rado river. The reclamation of the country adjacent to what has been sometimes called the "great Ameri can Kile," is thus assured. The plans to Irrigate these lands have long been regarded with spe cial favor In Southern California. The passage of Senator jerage irrigated farm is less than tiurva, The lands not utilized by the Indi ans are to be opened to white set tlors who will pay for them. Under the terms of the reclamation law the sale of lands will serve to dolray the expenses of the irrigation works, pay mcnt being made in 10 minimi in stalments. Southern California and adjacent portions of Arizona should bo benefited by the Influx of settlers which Is sure to follow the irrigation of the land. TO HELP OREGON Expert Amateur Shot.

With water, however, It can be made to produce several crops a year. Under the amendment to the Indian bill, relief has finally come to the Impoverished Indians. The secretary of the interior Is now free to build the necessary ca nals under the terms of the reclama tion law, and to allot to each Indian five acres of land with water. He need not wait on any private corpora tion. As the Indian families average from five to six persons, this would give them ample lands for their sup. port, judging from the experience of the Mormons in Utah, where the av- New Pharmacist of Schmidt's.

V 1 PORTLAND COMMERCIAL CLUB GIVES PRIZES. Contest Among Writers to Portray Resources and Opportunities of Or egonArticles Must Be Written by Oregonlans, But Published Outside the State The Word "Webfoot" Is Barred From the Contest. In order to stimulate a spirit of pride in the state of Oregon among the younger writers and correspond ents in the stato, tho Portland Com mercial Association has offered prizes amounting to $200 for the best writ ten articles on Oregon. The following circular letter has been scut out, giving the details of the contest and it is hoped that every person able to write 1000 words on the resources of Oregon, will enter the contest ns It Is Intended by It to bring out tho different points of view, on the stnte and Its wonderful resour ces nnd opportunities. Following are the regulations gov erning the contest: To the People of Oregon. Greeting: The Portland Commercial Club of fers two gold medals nnd $200 in cash prizes for articles on Oregon, under the following conditions: For the best article appearing in the regular edition of any newspaper or other publication printed outside of the state of Oregon, to be competed for only by persons residing in Ore gon and not living In the city of Port land, choice of a gold medal or $30 In cash. For the second best article, cither the gold medal or $50 In cash, depend ing upon selection made by the win ner of first prize. Article winning third prize will be given $25. Fourth prize will be $15, the fifth prize $10. To residents of Portland a gold medal and $100 will be distributed in prizes upon exactly the same basis as the gold medal and $100 are to be dis tributed to residents of Oregon out side of Portland. The reason for having these arti cles printed outside of the state is that we want the people away from home to know our advantages, and then we desire the Portland and Ore gon papers to be relieved from any embarrassment that might arise through having to decline articles. Articles containing the expression "Webfoot" will not be allowed to com pete. The governor of the state will be asked to appoint a committee to de cide as to the winners in the state contest, while the mayor of Portland will be requested to name the commit tee that will select the winners in this city. One of the chief reasons for offering these prizes is to give the younger generation an opportunity to do some pleasant work during vacation. ThU Is a busy age and no article is de sired exceeding 6000 words those of about 1000 words preferred. No articles will be accepted in com petition except where the newspaper or other publication is submitted com plete. The articles submitted become tho property of the Portland Commer cial Club, to be used as desired. The contest closes October 1, 1904. Wo believe that there will be an In teresting competition for these prizes, and fool sure that many newspapers throughout the United States, Cana da, Mexico and other countries will be 'glad to secure interesting matter relative to the most fertile state in the Pacific Northwest Articles In any language will be accepted. Feeling certain that this effort will result In much good to Oregon, we are, H. M. CAKE, President. THEO. B. WILCOX. Chairman Executive Com.
