Useful In all Impoverished con ditions of the blood and as a general tonic. Guaranteed by F. J. Donaldson Reliable Druggist. 71$ Main St, Pendleton, Or. ABOUT 46,000 ACHES WILL BE ABANDONED. Excessive Cost or Reclamation Given as tlio Reason for Giving tip the Lower Klunrath Lake Project Price of Land Advanced From 118, the First Estimate, to $25 Per Acre. The following from the Curns Times-Herald concerning the Klam ath government Irrigation project shows the tone of dissatisfaction which is heard In many places concerning the reclamation service In Oregon. The Burns paper says: Can It be that the reclamation serv ice Is going to use the same tactics in Klamath that caused the people of Malheur county to protest and the final abandonment of the project? A little more of such work will certainly be sufficient to show the people of the west that the money derived from the public lands Is being used to pay high salrled officials and Instead of our arid lands being reclaimed we are being handed a lemon. The Klamath Waterusers' associa tion has been notified that the board of engineers which visited the Klam ath project October last has arrived at the conoluslon that It would be necessary to leave out of the Klam ath river project the bottom of the Lower Klamath lake, an area of ap proximately 46,000 acres. This land Is to be omitted because of excessive cost of reclamation, and because the engineers deem It advisa ble that the agricultural value of lands of this character be determined before large sums are expended in Its reclamation. The original area In cluded In the Klamath river project was 236,402 acres, but leaving off Lower Klamath lake reduces the total area to 190.000 acres. The board of engineers, through Supervising Engineer D. C. Henny, have also given the Wateruser' asso ciation the Information that, owing to labor conditions and an advance in the cost of materials, the work J done up to this time has cost 35 per cent more than the estimated cost. The board goes still further and states that the cost of reclaiming Klamath lands will be not less than $25 per acre, and may reach 130, not lnclud Ing the cost of maintenance. The lat ter cost, however. Is very small. But $30 an acre Is nearly double the original estimate of $18. The lands of Klamath county will stand the $30 an acre tax If It Is necesary, and few will register a complaint, but when .It comes to omitting portions of the project because the engineers do not know whether the land will be productive, Klamath county people might suggest that the reclamation service employ a more competent corps of soil experts.

After a thorough Investigation of the charge of attempted fraud in val idating bogus land certificates through a change In the wording of the land bill passed In the house a few dnys ago, a committee from the house and the reading clerk, W. Lair Thompson, have exonerated Representative Frank F. Freeman of Multnomah county. Mr. Thompson makes the following statement regarding to Mr. Freeman'3 action: In connection with the statement made In various papers that the amendment offered by Representative Freeman to the land bill was altered by his direction after being submitted to the house, I desire to say In his behalf that when the nmemlment first came to the desk it read "shall" and that instead of being asked by Mr. Freeman to change this, he request ed me not to change the word and it was sent to the engrossing room read ing "shall" as originally offered. W. LAIR THOMPSON, Reading Clerk of the House. SOLD 85 Ql'ARTER SECTIONS. Gl,rfliitic Timber Peal In Baker and I'nlon Counties.

To make a hur ried trip around the world, to deliver public speeches almost every day and every night and at the same time to keep In personal touch with al the details In the management of a world wide organization would seem almost too much to be undertaken by a man of near 80 years of age and not in any too robust health. But this is the task mapped out by General William Booth, the founder and head of the Salvation Army, who sailed for New York today on the steamer Mlneapo 11s. He will spend two weeks In the American metropolis before proceed ing by way of Canada to take the steamer Minnesota on April 1 for Japan. After traveling through the empire of the mikado, General Booth will go on to Pekin. He plans to be back In London by July to commence an other automobile campaign through the British isles. At the conclusion of this trip. In the month of October, he will again cross the Atlantic for a two-months' trip In the United States. The amazing energy and vitality displayed by General Booth Is some thing truly remarkable. For years he has led a life that would tax the ener gies of most men of half his years. He Is constantly on the go, now In Norway, Sweden or some other part of Europe and soon on a hurried trip to Australian, India or some remote land. And no matter where he hap pens to be It would seem as If he never for an Instant relaxes his firm grasp on the affairs of the Salvation Army as directed from the general headquarters In London. It Is said that there is not a single detail in the world-wide activities and ramifications of the organization with which he is not personally acquainted. Though he has able lieutenants In the persons of various members of his family, they are never trusted to act Independently In any matter of Im portance. Every matter Is referred to General Booth before action Is taken. He frequently consults with his subordinates, but always acts on his own Judgment. General Ballington Booth was In clined to manifest a spirit of Inde pendence and the result was a per manent severance In the relations of the father and son. Rumor has had It that General Booth will attempt a reconciliation on his forthcoming visit to New Tork, but those who are ac quainted with the austere character and views of the aged leader do not place much stock in those reports.
