Expressions from residents of the Willamette valley and the Inland em pire Indicate that the movement for the further improvements of the Co lumbia river will have the hearty co operation ef the entire northwest and California, with senators and repre sentatives in congress of other states ready to assist Senator C. W. Fulton In the effort to induce the appropria tion of sufficient money to keep the work going for the coming summer, says the Oregon Daily Journal. "I Judge from my observation at home and In other towns south from here," said J. S. Cooper, mayor of Independent (Polk county) f today, "that there will be hearty co-operation between Portland, Astoria, The Dalles, Pendleton and all the towns In the Inland empire In the movement to Induce congress to provide for the further improvement of the Columbia. We people realize that In the Im provement of rivers and harbors lies In large part the assurance of proper development of this northwest. It Is a question that concerns the entire northwest. Mnst Stnnd Together. "Furthermore, the necessity of all western states standing together doubtless will make senators and rep resentatives of neighboring common wealths Join with Senator Fulton and the delegation that Is to go to Wash-. Ington to further the appropriation. "We must engender a spirit of loyal co-operation; must handle these things on a nonpartisan basis, and re member that the Issue goes to the Interests of all persons Irrespective- of party alignment. "Another thing, the residents of the Columbia river valley should remem ber that reciprocity Is the soundest foundation for all such enterprises, and that. If the people south from here in the state of Oregon help them, they In turn should help the western and southwestern Oregonians to pro cure appropriations from congress for the Improvement or the Willamette river and Coos and Yaqulna bays. Should Concentrate Forces. "We are not making the mistake of forgetting that these matters must be taken up one at a time and that we ' should not scatter our forces among several federal enterprises so as to lose them all. Hence, we are disposed to help the Columbia valley to get Its appropriation for the deepening of the bar at Astoria and the removal of obstructions at Celilo. We believe that the people of the Columbia val ley will not forget the assistance we render them now and therefore will aid on m Pr"curlng needed Improve, ments." meeting of the Oregon Devel opment league that Is to be held In Pendleton In a few days to forward the Columbia river cnterprlsee is ex pected to add much force to the movement.

CURED BY THE CUTICURA REMEDIES The agonizing itching and burning of the skin, as in eczema ; the fright ful scaling, as in psoriasis ; the loss of hair and crusting of the scalp, as In scalled head ; the facial disfigure ment, as iu pimples and ringworm; the awful suffering of infants, and anxiety of worn-out parents, as in milk crust, tetter, and salt rheum all demand a remedy of almost super human virtues to successfully cope with them. That Cuticura Soap, Ointment, and Pills are such stands proven beyond all doubt. No state ment is made regarding them that is not justified by the strongest evidence. The purity and sweetness, the power to afford immediate relief, the cer tainty of speedy and permanent cure, the absolute safety and great economy bave made them the standard skin cures and humour remedies of the civilized world. CAPL GRAHAM'S CURE Of Distressing Humour. Captain W. S. Graham, 1321 Eoff St., Wheeling, W. Va., writing under date of June 14, '04, says: " I am so grateful I want to thank God that a friend recommended Cuticura Soap and Ointment to me. I suffered for a long time with sores on my face and back. Some doctors said I bad blood poison, and others that I bad barbers' Itch. None of them did me any good, bnt they all took my money.

Assurances have been received from many senators and representatives in congress that they will help In Induc ing congress to provide for continu ing the work at Celilo and Astoria. Senator Sam Piles, of Seattle, has been quoted as saying that while he could hardly be expected to divide his effort in a way to endanger the pro jects of his own state, he sees no reason why he should not lend his In fluence to Oregon at this time la get ting the appropriation for the Colum bia's Improvement. The well known cordiality that ex ists between Senator Piles and Sena tor Levi Ankeny, of Walla Walla, and the understanding that they will work In harmony In Washington this win ter during the session of congress. leads men here to believe that they will find Senator Piles In line for the movement that has been started, for Senator Ankeny strongly favors the Improvement. That strong representation will be sent to Washington to support the efforts of T. B. Wilcox Is a certainty. The enthuslusm that has been mani fested here and In all towns of the northwest appears to insure that all potential energy will be expended and that success will attend the efforts.

Ionls Herman Arrived at Sun Fran cisco With Murvt"iiH Talcs of the North Panned Out Enough Ntia ax'ts! From tlio Beach Sand to Make Him Rich Hat Located AH Avail able Lund Far Inland. Like a modern Croesus, Louis Her man, a miner and hunter who has traversed the icy domain of the land the water front last night and as tounded many an eager listener with his story of fabulous wealth that lies hidden on the beach of Popoff island, western Alaska, says a San Francisco correspondent. Herman, according to hta state ments, has mined and hunted all over the vast Alaskan territory. He has visited many a mining camp In his dny and seen the wealth being ex tracted from the bowels of the earth. But not until the spring of 1904 has he ever encountered such great wealth as was his fortune to locate In a dis trict where no living soul ever dream ed there were the richest of diggings. Herman is a man of Intelligence and not given to wasting words In the tale he unfolds of his great discovery. He was very reticent regarding his experience on the Popoff beach and It took great urging before he would consent to narrate his story. In or der to make it convincing. Herman produced a small bottle filled with pure gold dust which he said he se cured on the Popoff beach with very small exertion. Herman said he had been prospect ing all along the coast for years and casually strolled along the beach of Popoff Island one day when he notic ed signs of gold on the beach. This at once started him looking further and In a short time he managed to pick up gold enough to make a ten derfoot miner think he was a real millionaire. Herman kept his discovery to him self and continued prospecting. He panned nnd wnshed oway and met with good success. He says his day's work averaged from $16 to $25 and that the gold was to be had in good quantities all along the beach. He finally got tired of the diggings there and wandered farther inland, where he says he made discoveries that will prove to be wealthy far be yond the placers of the Klondike. The miner says he could not stake the beach claims, but he quickly took up all the available land along the shore, and this he expects will put him on an equal with J. Pierpont Morgan. Nobody helped him in his work and he sjs no profits to share with any one, and all the claims are in his own name. Herman avers that when he first made his discovery he went to a storekeeper In the vicinity named Scott and asked for a magnet. The shopman handed It out and did not even ask what Herman wanted it for. When It was returned the storekeep er simply took It and never went to the trouble of asking Herman what he had been doing on the beach. The people seem Indifferent to the yellow metal. According to Herman the gold on the surface of the beach Is of high grade. He believes there Is a greater wealth still In the quartz claims back of the beach. Herman thinks this will run enormously high, though he has not assayed It yet and therefore cannot determine Its true value. Judging from his manner and speech, Herman Is a practical miner and a man who has had much exper ience In seeking the precious metal In the region of Ice and now. He says he roamed around Alaska for 20 years and during that time was out of the country only once, when be cams here about five years ago. He claims to have been one of the first men on the famous Nome beach when gold was discovered there In 1901. He mined there for a while and then drifted away again, hunting nnd prospecting In various parts of the country. He says he will return to Popoff Island In about a month to work on his claims. $100 Reward, $100.

This is the second and closing day of the Southern Immigration and Quaran tine conference, which Is considered one of the most important gatherings ever held In the south. , The morning session today was de voted to a general discussion of the subjects of Immigration and quaran tine and was followed by an address on "Citizenship, Its Duties and Re sponsibilities." by Robert 8. Fulton, chancellor of the University of Mls slppl. While the general meeting was in session, the governors attending the conference held a separate meet ing, in which several Interesting ad dresses were delivered. Just before adjournment a number of committee reports were received. Shortly after noon the delegates started on a trip to Fort Oglethorpe and Chlckamauga Park, where they are to take luncheon. The conference will close with a short session this evening. ' You Cannot Buv Purer I7hisliey than HAYNER, no matter how much you pay or where you get it.

Upon the adoption) and applications of success ful methods for utilizing the two great classes of ground-waters, which are found In the great plains, rests the prosperity and stability of an area of fertile nnd productive land greater In extent than several eastern states. Naturally, this vast region has possess ed a peculiar fascination for geologists and water experts, and for many years Investigations, more or less desultory In characters, owing to lack of funds, have been conducted therein. After the passage of the national Irrigation act, and the formation of the reclamation Fervlcc, these Investiga tions were tuken up iu a more practi cal and thorough mun:ur, and extend ed over greater areas. The under ground waters of the great plains be long to two general classes, and are divided with reference to the geologi cal character of the formations in which they are found. The first of these Is found in Dakota I sandstone, and occurs under sufficient pressure to cause It to rise an nppre-l clable distance above the level utj which the drill meets it, thus forming I artesian wells. The other is known as underflow 01 I sheet water, and Is found In sands and gravels. Its o-currence Is very gen- erul all over the great plains ut vurl-l ous depths, and the problem of utiliz ing It for Irrigation, If successfully solved, means the reclamation of ex tensive areas of wonderfully product ive soil, which are today worthless for any purpose save the grazing of cattle and sheep. The reclamation service has con cluded a series of careful studies of the underflow of the Arkansas valley in western Kansas and has recom mended the construction of a large pumping project, which will be sup piled from a number of wells tapping this underflow. The results of another Interesting investigation conducted in the valley of the South Platte, In Nebraska and Colorado, will appear In the forthcom ing annual report of the reclamation service. This Investigation was begun the middle of July, 1905, and extend ed from Sterling, Col., to South Platte. The work was In charge of Pro fessor Charles S. Slltchter and a corps of assistants. Its purpose was to de termine what resources, If any, exist ed In the underflow water of that val ley, and whether it was practicable to make use of such waters If they were found to exist In suitable quantities for Irrigation. In the section Investi gated the valley varies In width from two to eight miles, and the river oc cupies a very sandy stretch from 1500 to 2500 feet In width. Briefly summarized, tho reconnols sancc of the South Platte valley indi cates that there is an ample supply of ground-water for the Irrigation of suitable lands In .the bottoms along the valley, but that It Is Impracticable In this section to divert any of the ground-water from the valley of the stream upon the high lands which border It. There remains, however, a very con siderable eiuantlty of bottom lands In (he valley of the river proper, of such IRRIGATING W!THJJNORGROUND FLOW ti W lit I STOMACH IS g!- iJiiMwirrr ir H mi ' 1 f DlatTlLLEM Dayton, 0.

The entire valley Is traversed by the main belt of nn important rail way system, anil there seems no reason to doubt that it Is capable of sup porting a very considerable populntlon If engaged in intensive farming on small Irrigated tracts. The quality of the gravels Is espec ially favorable for the construction of wells of large capacity. Indications being that pumping plants can be very economically constructed, and proved profitable. At locations where the valley reaches a considerable width It would seem practicable to construct a central power station, and trans mit power to numerous small pump ing plants, located In the small hold ings of irrigable land. It would seem practicable at Sterl ing to secure such power from the large sugar factory, which has been built at the place. At other points In the valley these factories could be established, and the powerful and expensive engines utilized during tho irrigation senson to generate electric ity which could be transmitted over a large section of the valley, adja cent to the factory to pump under ground waters upon lands planted In sugar beets. Under present conditions, during a large portion of the year, the engines In the factories remain idle. In fact, they arc never In operation until nfter the irrigation season Is closed. One of the favor" bio conclusions from work In this valley Is the fact that private capital can probably de velop the water resources existing, without the necessity of constructing large plants, requiring large capital or government aid. The situation seems to call for numerous small pumping plants rather than for a sin gle large plant. The discovery that water In the valley of Blrdwond creek hns a considerable artesian head may prove of great value to lands near North Platte, as the lands near Bird wood creek with the exception of a very narrow strip in the valley, con sists of sand hills of little value for agricultural purpose. Ey tho construction of numerous 12-Inch wells, about 100 feet deep, along the west fork of Blrdwood creek, the low stage flow of the stream could be nearly doubled, nnd the waters taken from the creek near Its mouth nnd placed upon Innds In the valley of the Platte river. Good lands In the vnlley of the South Platte are In lnrge part still lying Idle, and the Immigration of people able to make the best use of the present water re sources Is very much desired. .
