THE Tl'MALO DISTRICT.
The plan to form an Irrigation dis
trict out of the Tuinalu project, out
lined in the petition for an election
which is published in this Issuo of
The Bulletin, is likely to be. the cause
of considerable friction until ' the
question is settled. Ever since it was
proposed it has probably been the
chief subject for discussion In every
Tumalo home and already the pros
and the antis must bo pretty well
established In their respective camps.
Formation of a district has been
proposed as a means of obtaining
more water for the project. Al
though no more land was supposed
to have been sold under the project
than thnro was sufficient water for,
It has developed, especially In the
past season, that the new settlers
and those at the end of the ditches,
have not had enough water. If the
leaks in the reservoir could be cured
there would be enough for all and for
. much new land. It seems hopeless
to obtain any aid from the state for
stopping these leaks and so (he set
tlers would take things info their
own hands through a district.
Groundwork for the execution of
such plan was laid at the last legisla
ture by the passage of a bill authoriz
ing the Desert Land Board to reduce
the existing Hen on Tumalo lands to
such amount as It saw fit, the idea
being that If a district were formed
and additional liens added on ac
count of reservoir expenditures the
state might waive enough of Its
claim to leave the amount to be paid
by each settler little or no greater
than It now Is.
As we see it the chief objection to
the district idea Is likely to come
from the older established water
right holders who see nothing to
gain from the plan. That, however,
seems the part of pure selfishness
unless they can also show that they
actually have a good deal to lose. To
the newer settlers who are short of
water the plan means everything, as j
It does, also, for the further develop-1
ment of the project.,
; For these reasons It seems to us
that the district plan should have
the support of the .voters interested.
If ail who have signed the petition
are' In favor there should be no diffi
culty and we trust that this may be

fit of Germany, without the slightest
regard to the welfare or interests of
the peoples she ruled over. It Is.
therefore, unthiukithle thitt any of
the African or Australasian posses
sions of Germany should be restored
to her. nor is it conceivable that, the
Allied Powers should return to the
rule of the unspeakable Turk any of
those regions which have been freed
from Ottoman tyranny.
-Not Iteiiily for Self-tioverntuentK
The African colonies are, and for
many years will be, Incapable of gov
erning themselves. Such regions as
Mesopotamia. Syria and Armenia ore
ocupied by peoples unacenstomed to
self-government, and incapable, at
the present time, of being entrusted
with complete political autonomy.
While each of these countries was oc
cupied by the army of one of the Al
lied Powers, yet in a general sense,
their possession was the result of the
combined effort of the Allies, and no
one power Is warranted In claiming
the right, or should be chanted with
the duty of continued occupation and
sole responsibility for the govern
'ment of such regions. The suggestion
of General Smuts was followed by
the Peace Conference as affording a
Just solution of a difficult problem.
"Sacred Trust Ivillzntion."
Article XXII of the revised Coven
ant declares that there shall be ap
plied to that problem:
"the principle that the well be
ing and development of such
peoples form a sacred trust of
civilization and that securities
for the performance of this truat
should be embodied in this cov
enant." . '
It declares the best method of giv-
ring practical effect to this principle
to be that the tutelage of such peo
ples be entrusted' to advance;, na
tions, who by reason of their re
sources, experience of geographical
position, can best undertake this re
sponsibility, and that the mandate
under which, they should act must
differ according to the stage of dev
elopment of the people, the geograph
ical situation of the territory, Its
economic conditions, and other simi
lar circumstances. In the case of
communities funnel ly boltinging to
tha Turkish Empire which have
reached a stage of development
where their existence as Independent
nations can provisional be rocogiiliud
subject to the general assistance
ttitlous also as will secure equal op
portunities for the trado and com
merce of othor members of tho I.eu
gue. These provisions should effec
tively preclude the possibility of such
sciuhIuIh as the history of the Congo
and control of a, mandatary, it Is de-rStute affords
clured that the wishes of those com
munities should be the principal con
sideration in the selection of a parti
cular mandatary. Other peoples, es
pecially those of Central Africa, are
at such a stage of development that
the mandatary must bu responsible
for the administration of the terri
tory, under conditions which will
guarantee freedom of conscience or
religion, subject only to the iniiln-
liitcriuilliiiinl Ktciuinl-lilp.
Othor territories, such as South
west Afrieu and certain of the South
Pacific Islands, which are continuous

the character of the South African

vised Covenant, best be administered
as integral portions of the territory
of such adjacent nations, and under

the slave trade, the arms truffle and
the liquor traffic, and the prevention

ubovo mentioned, and In the Inter

closely followed In Article XIX of the
original Covenant of Paris. ; Grcut
objoctlon to It, however, was express
ed in some American quarters, upon
the ground that the League might re
quire a nation ours; for Instance
without its consent, and even against
its will,, to undertake the administra
tion of Borne far distant country. The
apprehension was not warranted by
ttlo. language of the Covenant, but
the revised Covenant has removed
any possible basis for It, by expressly
limiting the selection of mandataries
of the League to those states who
are willing to accept.
