HERMISTO.V, Oct. 12. A meeting
of the executive board of the Umatilla
Irrigation IeaKue was held jointly
with II. D. Newell. Umatilla Project
manager at the offices of the I'nltcd
Htatea Keclamalion Service !u4t even
ing to discuss the new proposed plans
for Irrigating larger bodies of land In
the wert end of Umatilla county.
Mr. Xewcll has at the request of the
directors of the Reclamation and the
secretary of the interior been engaged
for several creeks In gathering oata
for a preliminary report which will be
sent to Waahlngton this evening. Mr.
Newell has made a number of surveys,
of possible rexcrvoir sites and finds
that the most practical are on McKay
creek near Pendleton. There are a
number of other sites throughout tho
j-county but these are the noat Ycaa-
it;o.
Water can to stored on the McKay
amounting to about 75.000 acre feet at
a reasonable cost. This would be suf
ficient to fumlHh all the water needed
by the Western I -a nil & Irrigation
project and all additional water need
ed by the Furnish project. It would
also supply all lands available that are
still arid, and with the addition of the
Teel project with a source of water
supply on i'atnaa creek, practically re
claim all the good lunds in tha west
end of the county.
it Is expected thatthe report will be
acted on favorubly and further inves
tigations made looking to tha adoption
of the project. It Is' regarded with
great, favor the people In all the
west end communities who are united
in the effort to secure the works. At
present no other community In the
state is asking such favors from the
department and it In believed .that if
tha proper effort la made by tha peo
ple, of this county and state Oregon
may get a part of Ha rightful share
in the reclamation now dot it.

Day of the Great Discovery. Edith Caroll!
. Facing the firing squad, your body Jell '
. And all of us gasped out our piteous word.-.
And all of us were wrong.
Why pity you?
The womanly and brave, the kind and true?
Our pity Is tor those beasts of the herd, "
Not one of whom bad manliness to cry
"I will not!" and by his own shot die.
Oar pity for those murderers and Their lord.
Forever after of all men abhorred.
Who may not now, or ever for all time
Escape the sickening stench and the foul slime'
Of their souls' rottenness. "
But Edith Cavell,
Whose name still sings although her tongue la mate..
Whose love is sung on every poet's lute.
Who of us dares to pity, when we tell4
The rosary of our words?
Tour work Is done.
And yet, mayhap, your work is but begun.. '
Aye, so we ever wonder! Would you con id tell
What was your Great Discovery when you fell ) x
On this Discovery Day, Edith Cavell! . '
What new worlds welcomed you? What beckoning
shore
Dimmed the dream glories of Sn Salvador,- '
Bravest of all discoveries gone before? I
..
What the reward across the unknown Seas "
When our sails, too, shall freshen to that breeze
Following the wake of great souls such as these?

THE PEACE BEGGAR
Postal records in the county show
that people rather than be marked
yellow are cashing their war savins
stamps to use the money to buy- Lib
erty Bonds. These are only small
subscribers but in the aggregate the
number of stamps being1 cashed In
reaches a considerable sum.
The Uberty I-oan committee an
nounces where it is not necessary for
any one to resort to this method to
get moiitjy to buy bonds and those un
able io pet the money in other ways
need have no fear of being branded a
slacker. To purchase the stamps is
just aa ease nt iul as to buy bonds, and
to sell stamps to buy the bonds is like
'robbing Peter to pay -Paul," nothing
is (trained by the government in 'such
action.
