Professor M. I. Paupln, the famous
electrical expert, announced at the
meet ng of the National Academy of
Science that he had discovered a new
metrod of "magnifying" electric cur

the establishment of thoge rights. 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.

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

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.

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. "Since I got up
this morning, for Instance, I've put
down a linoleum, laid three carpets,
papered two halls, fixed a fire grata,
wept the hall "
I "Good Scott!" Jobson began
grow compassionate svmnathetfp
"Mended a chair." Smith went on
, "made two beds, set the table wash
1 ed the dishes. 'moved a piano and s
fcideboard, and hung nine pictures!"
"Poor old chap!" gasped Jobson
"Was It your wife made you?
"No; my little girl did,"
Smith sorrowfully. "You see, I
bought her a new 'loll'n house last
night."
