The water should not be taken for the re clamation of the extension until it is . known whether or not the govern-; meiht is entitled to use the water for for that purpose. , It is asserted by some people thfct there will be ample water in the river , to irrigate the reservation, meet the needs of the settlers and carry out the extension as well. Very likely ; tli is contention is true for a vast am ount of water is now allowed to go to waste. If there is plenty of water ali will be lovely. But since there if. some doubt the danger should be j borne by the extension, not by the territory In this vicinity. The govern- ; ment should look iut fully for the rights in this section and then take what water may be left for the ex tension. But old settlers should not be robbed In order to provide water for newcomers. As for the Stanfleld opposition to the extension that Is another story. EAST AND WEST. THE CHIMNEY CORNER. , I. The old-time chimney corner, where the winter dreams are sweet; Mighty good to be there! It's the place that's hard to beat. The comfort of the fire- safe from ghostly snow an' sleet i In the drow.--y light you drift to dreaming. ir. The old-time chimney corner ain't for just the folks growing old, With hearts unchilled forever by the keen winds of the cold; For the eyes of children sparkle when the stories sweet are told And In the drowsy light they drift to dreaming. Frank L. Stanton. LOC.(L RIGHTS COME FIRST. Unless the extension of the Uma tilla project can be made without in Jury to settlers along such streams as McKay and Birch creeks and without jeopardizing the rights upon the Umatilla reservation the East Ore gonlan Is opposed to the extension. Most local people will be. It must be plain to all the rights of the settlers ami, of the Indians are entitled to precedence over '.he ex tension. The settlers on Birch reek, McKay and the Umatilla be tween Pendleton and Butter creek T.ave been here for years. They own ranches and are actually residing up on them at this time and cultivating them. Those men are justly entitled to all the water they need. They Fh'.uld not only be allowed ample wa-w-r for lands they have been irrlga't Ir.g but the government should and rr-uld consistently grant them water for lrrigible lands that may not now bf under ditch provided the settlers agree to bring such land under irri gation itithln a reasonable time. The great aim of the reclamation service is to bring land under water. Why is It not Just as well to irrigate land near Birch creek or McKay creek as In the west end of the county? Why should the government go to trouble and ex prnse to use water down there If set tlers are willing and anxious to use that water for simitar piyposes upon their own ranches The reservation rights should also have precedence over the extension and it has been a source of surprise to this paper that the government at torneys have rot given the reservation more consideration In connection with f lens for the extension. It Is held by orne pretty good authorities that the IiKlisns of the reservation have a light to water any or all of their al f d ted lnn!s. Then aouredly the gov rrnmrnt fIiouM mske. allowance for Discussing the trip of the western governors and the subject of what is east and what Is west the New York World says: The Western Governors who have fret out to evangelize the East do not quite agree as to its boundaries. Gov. Hawley of Idaho thinks that the East ends at Pittsburg, and other opinions arioui--ly assign Chicago, Kansas City and Denver as its Western limit. Xo such doubt has ever existed about the South, the 1 ocation of which was fixed by Mason and Dixon's line, the Ohio river and the Missouri compromise. Xor is there any mis understanding of the designation "down East." As respects East and West, a constantly shifting boundary line has necessarily caused some con fusion. The cowboy of the story thought he was about as far East as he cared to be when he got to Chey enne, while, on the other hand, to some native-born New Yorkers any thing beyond the Xorth River is West Indiana, which now contains the tentre of population, might logically advance the claim that it is the bor der state between East and West, and its production of poems, "best sellers" and Broadway drama heightens the analogy. But in Western opinion gen erally the East is where Wall street and Fifth avenue are, and such it is likely to remain. That Is the part" of the country a Westerner has in mind when he "takes a trip E ist," a-nd it Is assumed to be the main objective point of the western governors. Scarcely has the smoke of Monday's battle rolled away and we are again beset with a controversy of vast im portance and much heat. Pendleton seems to have also elect ed the mayor of Oregon City. The more snow, the more water. HIS Bl SY DAY. ; "Hard work!" Jobson snorted, after a particularly heavy day at the office. "Don't tal.'s to me! What do you know about it!" Smith, who didn't go to an office, smiled. "Well, i guess I know something" he answered gently.
