CHICAGO SHEEP MARKET.
Only One Loud or Ulllilw Sold for $7
Per Hundred.
The Chicago Livestock World gives
the following review of the sheep
market:
Trade was active and steady to
strong, everything being cleaned up
at a reasonable hour. In spots the
market looked a little higher. Some
western owes, for Instance, that made
$4.60, would probably have been in
the $4.40 class last Friday. Choice
native lambs were very scarce. Either
the country has not got them or they
are being held, a strong Improbability
at these prices. A large proportion
of native lambs were not fat, and on
the coarse order, owing to lack of
trimming. Only one load good enough
to make $7 arrived. A city buyer said
ho would not have hesitated at $7.25
for the right kind of lambs and If
necessary might have gone a little
higher. Tho possible top could be
conservatively put at $7.25. Eight
doubles of western lambs were marked
to a local slaughterer at $7.10, a price
that looked high. They were on tho
market, but tho buyer was understood
to have on Interest In them, the trade
regarding them as direct stuff. West
ern wethers sold up to $4.75. and nti
tvesl ewes to $4.60. There was an
urgent demand for feeding lambs at
$!.60!i 6.60. A large coterie of coun
try buyers was on the ground and pro
fessed a willingness to pay these
prices, several sales being made at $5.
60. These are the kind of feeding
lambs selling the fore part of last sea
son at $4.25 (if 4.60 and were then re
garded as high. Thero was appar
ently an unlimited demand for feed
ing yearlings at $5.
Most of tho native lambs on sale
were half fat and coarse, selling at
$5.75i6.50. This lack of quality Is
indicated by tho salo of a 78-lb load
of native lambs at $5.75. Tho weight
Is deceptive and tho prlco Indicates
that they were only half fat, otherwise
they would havo sold In another class
entirely. There was a good demand
for throwou' around $5.26.

Government Engineer Have Careful
ly Surveyed the lamls to lie Re
claimed by Inland Empire Irriga
tion Company and Mr. Furnlli as
Mummer Will Do Everything to As
Hlxt the Government Work Hits
Already Begun on the Furnish
Ditch.
W. J. Furnish, president and man
ager of the Inland Irrigation compa
ny, which is now at work upon the
construction of a canal to reclaim
about 10,000 acres of land near Echo,
Included In the proposed government
project, was seen and asked to give
his views in regard to the govern
ment's project, und to state his com
pany's probable action with reference
to the same.
Mr. Furnish said: "It is my under
standing that when the government
engineers first came to this locality,
some three years ugo, to Investigate
the conditions with a view to reclaim
ing lands in this county, that the
present project was the first one ex
amined, und while considered good,
was at thut time deemed too small
and the cost per acre too great for
the government to take hold of; that
since that time the government engin
eers have been engaged In an exam
ination of the lands on the south side
oftlie Umatilla river and on the west
of Hutter creek, which has finally de
veloped Into a project known as tho
"John Day River Project," which
seems too large and the cost too great
for the government to take hold of at
this time.
"During this period private compa
nies have been organized and have
thoroughly exploited practically all of
the lands Included In the project now
proposed to be taken by the govern
ment. The Maxwell Irrigation com
pany has completed a canal and sev
eral miles of laterals, covering some
8000 or 10,000 acres of these lands.
The Cold Springs company has Incor
porated and purchased a water right
from the Hlnkle Ditch company, to
cover some 6000 or 6000 acres of
land; has enlarged the Hlnkle ditch
to the point of diversion, and are now
ut work on the construction of a
flume and canal to carry water across
the Umatilla river out Into the Lower
Cold Springs country.
"The Tacoma company has Incor
porated, and Is at present negotiating
for a ditch to cover 4000 or 6000 acres
on the flat between Foster and Her
mistun. The Inland Irrigation com
pany, of which I am the manager,
has completed all the necessary sur
veys; has appropriated 10,000 InclHis
of the flood waters of the Umatilla
river, and has let contracts for the
completion of the flume and canal to
cover 10,000 acres of what is known
as "The Old Twelve Mile Flat," which
lands ure by far the choicest lands
In the whole government project, al
though Irrigation for these lands
would depend entirely on the flood,
waters, both under our own plan and
that of the government; while most
of the other lands could be supplied
with storage water, under the gov
ernment's plan.
"The private projects now con
structed, and in course of construc
tion will reclaim the lands a great
deal cheaper than under the govern
ment's system, though construction by
the government would be much more
permanent and durable, and the In
cident government supervision and
control would minimize the cost of
maintenance, as well as the risk of
disputes and litigation over water
rights, and would promote and stim
ulate a much higher state of develop
ment In the end, und would, In my
opinion, produce the best and most
valualde Irrigation district In the
state of Oregon.
"Regarding the attitude of our
company to the government project,
1 will say that although we have let
the contracts and ordered materials
for the entire completion of the
flumes and canal, and the contract
ors are now actively at work on the
construction, having already complet
ed about a mile of the ditch, and
while we know we have a good prop
osition as it Is, and are prepared to
fully complete our work by the mid
dle of January, we shall favor and
encourage the government project In
every possible way, having In view the
protection of the interests of the com
pany, and those Interested In or Iden
tified with It.
"We shall endeavor. If possible, to
reach an agreement with the govern
ment whereby our project may be In
cluded in theirs and will make any
reasonable sacrifice to insure the suc
cess of the government's project, be
lieving, as I do, that It will be a great
thing for this section of the country.
However, we shall of necessity pro
ceed with the work of completion un
til something more definite can be
learned In regard to the final decision
of the government as to the adoption
and early completion of the project."
REVERTS TO SAVAGERY.
Clothed 111 a Blanket and Saturated
With Whiskey He Expatiates Upon
the Advantages of a Vnlversily
Training How Ho Demonstrated
Hint Ho Knew More Tlinn His
Mother, In Answer to Her Scoffing.
That an education acquired ut Car
lisle dues not destroy an Indian's de
sire for a red blanket or for whiskey
was shown this morning. About 11
o'clock this forenoon a tall young
buck from the reservation sauntered
Into one of tho local banks and asked
for tho cashier. His talk and his ac
tions plainly showed that he had been
looking upon "firewater," and had ev
idently bean In an alley back of some
of the saloons. i :
His visit to the bank was for the
purpose of explaining to that Institu
tion why he had not paid It back $7.50
which had bacn loaned to him several
days before, In doing so ho took oc-
casion to display as much of his learn
ing as possible, and showed himself to
be somewhat of a schotar. He seemed
to hnve great pride In his Carlisle
record, und ulso was filled with the
Idea that his education was a great
thing for him. However, he said
that his mother had told him when
he came home from school In the east
that ho did not know any more than
she did. But this he had shown to he
untrue by asking her how much 4 8
and 49 made, which problem In addi
tion was, of course, too much for the
squaw mother.
.After having talked as long as he
could at tho bank window, the ex
Carlisle man pulled his blanket about
him and staggered out. His black
hair was long, and with his Jag and
aboriginal garb he looked but little
different from the ordinary "Injun,"
In spite of the care which Uncle Sam
had showered upon him during his
youth.

IRRIGATION PROJECT
Tho reclamation service has an
nounced a feasible project from the
Umatilla river, on the east side, of
from 15,000 to 18,000 acres of land
which can be supplied with full wa
ter supply and 10,000 to 12.000 acres,
which can at the same time be provld
ed with flood water or winter lrrlga
tlon.
John T. Whistler, district engineer
for the reclamation service In Oregon,
In an Interview today, says: "An ex
cellent smell project exists on the east
side of the Umatilla river below Echo.
This region has generally been con
ceded by the Bervlce to belong large
ly to the field of private Interests,
since several enterprises are already
under process ot construction or are
contemplated. The reclamation serv
ice, however, has worked out a plan
for a feasible project of from 25,000
to 30.000 acres. The greater part of
the land coming under the project Is
either patented or entered upon, and
therefore the reclamation service can
only present the plans proposed to tho
people Interested for their acceptance
or rejection.
The general plan proposed Is to dl
vert water from the Umatilla by a
feod canal between 15 and 20 miles
long Into what Is called Cold Springs
reservoir site. A dam there to hold
the water 90 feet deep will Impound
a sufficient supply alone for 15,000
acres. About 18.000 acres of good
land Is estimated to lie under the res-
ervoir. and by using one Irrigation In
the spring direct from the river it is
thought the entire 18,000 acres can be
provided with an absolute and assured
full supply.
Lying above the reservoir distribu
taries, but below the feed canal will
be from 10.000 to 12.000 acres of Irri
gable land which can, by Increasing
the size of the feed canal, be supplied
with flood water or winter Irrigation.
All plans proposed Ly the reclama
tion service provide for structures of
the most permanent character which
will thus reduce the cost of mainte
nance to a minimum. The plans also
1 .'ovlde for all necessary drainage. A
permanent diversion weir or dam will
be provided at the point of diversion
of tho Umatilla river.
The reclamation act itself provides
that payments for government water
rights shall be made In 10 annual pay
ments without Interest Tho plan In
other projects has been to make the
first payment duo In December after
the first full season's Irrigation.
The government Hen required on all
patented lands before construction
will begin cannot, however, be fore
closed until another year, allowing,
therefore, two entire Irrigating seasons
before the first payments can be re
quired. The cost per acre estimated on, In
cludes nil maintenance for the 10
years during which payments are
made.
Final estimates cannot bo worked
out for some time, but It seems proba
ble the project will cost little if any
in excess of $50 per acre for the fully
Irrigated land and $20 for the flood
or winter irrigated land.
It should be understood that these
figures arc only approximate and that
final estimates may change them ma
terially. They are given now In order
that the project may bo considered as
promptly as possible and to tho end
that If It Is desired by tho people un

FRUGAL SECTION M,.
Employe of the W. & C. R. Has Just
Cashed Two Years' Checks.
Checks to the amount of several
hundred dollars, representing the
monthly stipend of a sectton hand on
the W. & C. R. for nearly every month
since December, 1903, were cashed at
a local bank during the month of
July and were yesterday returned to
the office of the company, says the
Walla Walla Union.
This frugal Individual has been in
the employ of the company for a num
ber of years In the .capacity of a sec
tion hand at Hunt's Junction and saya
that unless he Is "fired" he supposes
that he will be there until he Is In
capacitated from work by accident or
old age. He can neither read nor
write and seems perfectly content with
his work for the railroad company.
Some time ttyo he was In the gen
eral offices In this city and his atten
tion was called to the fact that his
checks had not been cashed for a long
time. In response he stated that he
did not need the money and to prove
his statement exhibited a deposit slip
on a Pendleton bank for $4000 and
hacked it up with a roll of bills from
his pocket that fairly bewildered the
clerk In tho office. The fact that he
did not Immediately need the money
for the checks was established beyond
a 9hadow of a doubt
It Is reported that he had been sav
ing up his checks for the past IS
months to enable him to attend the
Lewis and Clark exposition, and that
he Is now on the trail taking In the
sights.
Cashing Checks.
Should a check be drawn on an
other bank, It is not necessary for
you to present the check to that bank
for payment we will gladly do so for
you, without charge. We cash drafts
