SENATOR FULTON'S WORDS.
1 At 1 the banquet tendered Vice
President Fairbanks at Astoria, Sen'
ator Fultcyi said: "If we are to
have the splendid nation we deserve
we must have Uib right leaders
No Ode is bcttey &tcl u-s a leader
'than our distinguished, guest, here
UiUj evening." Perhaps the scna-
tor'g words were mere idle praise for
tbc guest present. Or were they
,'4ttltcd after due consideration and
did -the senator mean to alien .him-
celfiwith the Fairbanks boom for
itbc presidency? If he docs so in
j tend it is4ime for Oregon to choose
.ah other, senator. It b generally
tconccdedtljiat, if Fairbanks stands
fbr auyihiug, it is for those special
-interests and classes that have so
-vigorously opposed all rcforos ad
vocated by President Roosevelt.
Fairbanks plainly showed bis- hand
mben,in referring to administrative
policies, he said:
"We should follow the lamp of past
experience. We cm e but a little way
into the future. Wetfuould be cartful
in (fail country td mold bytterla, we
.slioulil avoid null,' illcpfiiMercd action

wc do not know. Hut one thing
we do know and that is that if
these complaints continue to be
heard) a determined effort will be
made to locate the blame and as de
termined tin effort made to sec that
it is corrected. There is no suffi
cient reason why it should require
five days for The Bulletin to travel
from bend to its subscribers at'

The above t3 undoubtedly a sly
dig at President Roosevelt. It is
the same silly twaddle that was so
.prevalent at one time, when the
trust magnates were wont to refer
ito Roosevelt as a rash, hysterical,
-unbalanced and untrustworthy in
dividual. Fairbanks is a creature the
trusts and a follower of thel7"dicta-
tion. The nationrwauts none of"
his ilk. And neither does the state
of Oregon wank a senator whose!
support b given to such men. '

A Bend man remarked this week
that those of us who arc now boom
ing this country and who have
grcit faith in it, will be greatly
surprised to see what it will pro
duce in 15 or 20 years. He implied
that our prophetic vision was not
strong enough to see the full devel
opment of future years and that we
.verc only telling half the truth.
He undoubtedly is correct. Prac-

ticauy every new couutrv mat is
opened to settlement surpasses the
tondest dreams of its most enthus
iastic friends in the abundance and
diversity of the crops that are pro-
duced on it in later years. This
same result is already seen to some
extent in the Bend country, Kach
year sees more tender vegetables,1
more fruit and better crops grown.
This season premises to lead all
others in that respect. Twenty
years yes, 10 years will see a de
velopment In the Bend couutry of
which none of us now dream.
The famous Haywood trial at
Boise is drawing to a close. The
defense has put forth a very weak
case and has failed to overthrow
Orchard's confession in any of its
chief points. It is undoubtedly the
belief of the majority of those who
have followed the evidence closely
that Orchard told the truth. What
the verdkt of the jury will be,, it is
impossibh to foretell. If it is
"guilty" this man Haywood should
be hllng as high as Haman. It is
true that there is much injustice in
our present ccoqomlc, system and
that the laboring rnau most often
receives but a sma$ per cent of the
profits due him frcm his labor, but
it is likewise trtle,, tua! -the nation
has no time for a pjstaken effort to
correct these injustices by means of
the bomb, shot gun, nnd poison.
CAl'ACITV AND C'.KAltlt.
The quantity of water wlikh a
ditch will carry depends fully ms
much on the fall or grade as Oh 'its
fije. The two elements should be
considered together. When condi
tions arc such that one can adojk n
suitable grade the brief points In
mind arc the volume to be carried
and the nature of the soil. The
smaller the volume the greater I
the grade required. In 11 snuill
ditch capable of carrylnir so
miner's inches a fall of 2 inches to
the rod would produce n velocity of
2 feet per second, while in a ditch
capable of carrying 950 miner's in
ches the fall required to give the
same velocity is only one-fourth
inch to the rod. In fine sand
or sediment a flat grade is required
to prevent scouring. A mean ve
locity of one foot per second is suf
ficient for such material. In hard
gravel or hard clay, or in a mixture
of these, a velocity of 3 feet pet sec
ond can be used without troditiL'
the bottom. In ordinary materials,
ranging from sandy or gravelly
loams to clay loams, a grade may be
safely adopted which will produce a
mean velocity of 2 to 3 Jj feet per
second. On a farm with little fall
the grade of a ditch can not exceed charge is 307 miner's inches;
that of the laud. On rolling
land or where the slope is steep n
suitable grade for ditches can usu
ally be found by nimiltig them
across the slopes rather than direct
ly down them. Whcil excessive
tirades can not be avoided by wind
ing around the high places the
speed of the water may be checked
by the insertion uf drop's or flash
boards at proper intervals, Check
boards arc convenient lo divert
ynter into laterals, and at a slight
additional expense theyi may bo
combined with a pcrmaucudrop,

In the table which follows, the
flow in each of the five types of
fnrm ditches has been fieurcd fori
ulltcrcut grades. These grades arc
intended to cover ordinary condi
tions on most farms nnd arc ex
pressed in three ways: First in
inches and fractious of an inch per
rod; next in feet per too feet; and,
lastly, in feet per mile. The mean
or average velocity of the water in
each kind of ditch having a given
grade is also given, as well as the
discharge in cubic feet per second
and its equivalent in miner's inches
under a 0 inch pressure head,
about 40 of such inches being equal
to t cubic foot per second. Thus
in farm ditch No. 3 n grade of one
half inch per rod produces a dis
charge of 168 miner's inches, but

The V-Shnped Flume.
For the conveyance of water from
the source of supply to the ground
to be irrigated, as well for .its dis
tribution thereon, the ditch is the
prevailing agency. " ,"
Their obvious ndvaluagcs are
chedbness. and durability. The
cliicf disadvantage lies in the loss
of water by evaporation and seep
age. Where the water supply is
scant and where the soil is so open
that the loss of wattr bv seepage is
likely to cause injury to good land
on lower levels, the saving of these
losses may justify the expenditure
necessary to prevent seepage by
paving or cemetmntf Die uttcii, or
to insure delivery cf water without
loss from any cause by the use of,a
pipe line. These are usually ques
tions connected wflh large irrigd
tion enterprises rather than with
the use of a farm supply, and yet
they .sometimes arise in connection
with the latter. In regions where

The board flume is upon, the
whole the most available resource
when the simple open ditch will
nut answer, and the cheapest flume
for carrying a small stream of woter
is the V-shaped trough of two fyidc
boards nailed together aloiiu two
edges and bedded in the soil with
short cross-pieces under the cud
