cone forward with the required bond
to ensure serforanance of the contract
for loonstrwetiou of the jportave road.
The -contract price .will aggregate

WMae this total makes the oontract
verr large one, the terms under
which It nun be earrieg out will be
such that the state can be made se
cure wsth a bond of ahvut ISO.OOO.
The work can be dene and paid Jar in
sections, and the bead made to aover
one section at a time, the state hold
ing hack a sufficient aunosat of ach
payment to cover any shortcoming
that might be revealed by checking
op the work.
While no plan ha. been finally
passed upon by the portage board,
the one her. outlined ia looked upon
as feasible, and it probable that the
contract will be carried out In such
manner that the work will be fin
ished and paid for in three sections.
Of the remaining $10,00 of the
Mate appropriation for the portage
road, the state will retain an amount
sufficient to cover expense, of light
of way. survey, and the employment
of the supervising engineer to over
see the work from beginning to end.
These expenses will. It 1. estimated.
reduce the amount available for con
struction to about $161,000, and the
balance required for the construction
of the road will have to be provided
for from private resources. It I. still
thought th. amount of this deficiency
will com. within $40,000.

Building.
Portland, Nov. 28. With the liber

and the handsome building already
constructed, Massachusetts' participa

used as ladles' and gentlemen's re
ception, writing and lounging rooms,

Portland, Nor.. 28. Startling testi
mony waa brought out today In th
land fraud caeca. Evidence was In
troduced by Prosecuting Attorney
Henry, .bowing that S. R. Ormsby,
superintendent of th Cascade forest
reserve, who was seat out after In
spector Loomls. was believed to have
Joined the conspiracy and followed
the latter', plan and Joined ins
clique.
Ormsby. according to Henry, not
only declared Loomls' reports true.
but backed them up with additional
fraudulent reports. This afternoon
is being taken up with th. story of
Emma Watson's flight to Chicago and
her capture ln that city.
Portland. Nor. !. All interest In
th. land fraud case, now hinges up
on arrival of Land Commissioner
Kicnaros, from Washington, who 1.
expected soon, to refute th. testimony
or Dinger nermann to th. effect that
Richard, was wholly responsible for
passing the fraudulent entries through
tne general land office.
The prosecution hope, to prove, not
only that Hermann passed th. entries
personally; but that he made special
arrangements for their speedy nss
and also. It i. alleged, that he
had criminal knowledge of the nature
of th. entries, when he passed them.
It 1. believed that the case will de
velop Into the most sensational In the
history of the land department of th
government. It has already been
proved that Puter and Mrs. Watson
traveled as man and wife, and the
prosecution promise to prove that
McKlnley and Maris War. also lived
as man and wlf. in different place,
wall, perpetrating th. land frauds.
"The quickest way In which Pen
dleton can get some direct and prac
tical results that will benefit the
town, from actual Irrigation, la to
piomlte a scheme to complete the
dream or Sam Sturgls, and open the
Hturgts ditch, around the brow of the
hills north of the city, and reclaim
the land that would be trlbutury to
the city under this ditch," said O. D.
Teel, of Echo, to the East Oregon lan
this morning.
"While the plan seemed visionary
ito ome, at th time Mr. Sturgl. and
other, began this ditch, subsequent
results of winter Irrigation have prov
ed the wisdom of the plan and Pen
aieton could not get any quicker or
greater remits from Irrigation than
through the completion of this ditch.
"There are 10,000 acres of land ly
ing Idle between Pendleton and
point opposite Echo, that would be
tributary to this ditch, and every foot
of this land would be tributary to
Pendleton. It would produce two
crops of alfalfa from winter Irriga
tion, and your river is filled to over
flowing with water from December to
May, that la an absolute wast at
present.
No matter what the . government
doe at Echo, thl. plan mean mora
to Pendleton, directly, than the But
ter areek project, and Is-a project
that would not require an enormous
capital. It I easily within reach of
local capital and It is a wonder that
It has not been revived.
"Th results of winter flooding are
so apparent to every on who has
studied the process in Umatilla coun
ty, that it ha becom on of th fixed
