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,

CURED BY THE
CUTICURA REMEDIES
The agonizing itching and burning
of the skin, as in eczema ; the fright

the awful suffering of infants, and
anxiety of worn-out parents, as in

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

not justified by the strongest evidence.
The purity and sweetness, the power
to afford immediate relief, the cer

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. My
friends tell me my skin now looks aa

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.

FABULOUS
WEALTH
IHH'OFF ISLAND BEACHS
RICH IN PLACERS.
Ionls Herman Arrived at Sun Fran

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.

QUARANTINE CONFERENCE.
Also Discusses Southern Immigration
Question.
Chattanooga, Tenn., Nov. 10. 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

THE HAYNER DISTILLING COMPANY

St Louis, Mo,
Cipital, $500,000.00,
Washington, Nov. 9. 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

a quality and so situated aa to he es
pecially Inviting for Irrigation pur
poses. 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. .
