SON MEETS LAND SAYS HE WILL COAl- PLETE PROJECT Hut He Wnnta tlie Uonrtl to Let Illm Alone Has Spent $223,112 Al ready, AH of Which Cnme Fi-oin Kales Jltnmcs Tho Governor. (Special to Tho Dultctln.) SALEM, April 27. J. E. Morson told tho members of the Desert Land Hoard, at a meeting laBt Friday, that ho Intended to proceed with tho work on tho Deschutes Land Company's project at La IMne and It did not mat ter .to him whether tho board extend ed his contract, which expires May 1, or not. He said his contract, which was drawn under tho 1901 Irrigation law contained a clause under which all the board could do was to servo no tice on him to proceed with the work oa the project and In ess. ho did proceed within 60 days tho contract would romaln In effect until tho ex piration of the state's contract with the government, which Is not until October 1, 1915. "I want the board to servo notice on mo now," ho said. "I'm going to proceed with tho wdrk on tho pro ject and if I'm let alone there will bo no moro stops until it is all com pleted." Owing to the failure of tho secre tary of the Desert Land Board to properly advise Morson of the Board's request for a description of the lands disposed of by options and certificates, Morson did not bring such information. Neither did ho have a detailed financial statement of bis receipts and expenditures which tho Doard desired. Mr. Morson told the board, how ever, that be had collected $223,112 from all sates and that It all had been spent on the project. He said that 14,000 acres had been obligated through options and certificates. Of this amount 5000 acres aro in the west sldo unit and 9000 acres are In the east side unit. Governor West asked him if he would be willing for those holding land on tho east sldo to change for land on tho west side, which will be completed first, if he was given an extension of time on his contract. Morrison said those on the east side would not want to change because be fore they could move and clear a piece of land he will have water on the cast sldo tract. He said all the blamo for tho de lay In tho project on the governor, who replied that because the Cres cent lake reservoir site was held up bv the government was no reason why Morson should not have complet ed tho west side unit, which is not dependent upon tho reservoir for its supply of water. Several sharp tilts occurred be tween the governor and Morson. "My baby never wants candy until someone suggests candy," said Mor son," and I see the governor has suggested that I could steal J360, 000 from the project. He has put the Idea In my head and I want to say that I think I am a big enough man to do It." "To be frank," replied tho gover nor. "I have never doubted It." "Yea. they say It takes a thief to catch a thief," retorted Morson. Attorney General Crawford asked Morson If be thought he had ability to finance tho completion of the pro ject, and Morson replied that ho had not even taken the matter up. No action of anv kind In the mat ter was taken by the board. LIBRARY CLUB BENEFIT Small Audience Heard Mm. Wlgle Monday Night. At the Dream Theatre Monday night Mrs. John Wigle of Prlnevllle delivered a lecture on Victor Hugo's novel "Les Mlserables," describing the masterful work with considerable detail and great lucidity. Unfortu nately tho house was a very light one, not more than CO being present, the combination of counter attrac-; tlons and rather less enthusiastic ad vertising than usually precedes Li- j uiarf euiermujiiieiHB accounis lor this. At the opening the Dream Theatre orchestra played fine numbers most excellently, and then a quartet con sisting of Mrs. Powelson, Mrs. For rest, Miss Troutner and Mrs. Putnam sang, accompanied by Miss Gravos. The lecture was for tho benefit of the library. However, little more than the expenses of the evening was oleared. MAY ORGANIZE TROOP HERE Governor AVettt Rends Petitions To Mayor Miller.

And Thtlr Connection With Stormy or Sunshiny Wcath.tr, In "Our Own Weather" Edwin G. Martlnafter noting the Indications of weather shown by barometric read ings, tbo variations of the winds and their meaning, tbe ever changing forms of tbe clouds, shows how tbe colors of tbo sky act as weather signs: Ordinary observation has gathered a great number of weather signs from Imply the ever varying colors of tbe sky. Among tho moro familiar and re liable onea arc: A bright bluo sky Is tho sky of fine weather. A bright yctlow sky at sunset prom ises winds, a pale yellow sky rain and n "sickly greenish" sky both wind and rain. A rosy sky at sunset prom ises fair weather, but a dark red sky at sunset promises rain. A red sky in the morning promises wind or rain. "A red sun lias water In his eye." "If tho sun sets In dark, heavy. Ml wi ri L clouds, expect rnln tho next tiny." Even n gray sunset Indicates ruin, Hut n gray morning Indicates n lino day. "When the sun draws water rnln follows soon." And. finally, whnt In this connection It would ho perhaps tho most reproach ful of nil pnslblo omissions not to men tlou: lUlnbow nt night.

Licorice Hoot. Very few people, says a writer In the Wide World Mngatlne. have any Idea where the familiar licorice root comes from. As a mntter of fact, tho bulk of It halls from Syria. Hero It Is gnthcrod and piled Into great stacks, whore It re main until It is thoroughly dry. It m then taken to tbe factory to undergo certain processes. Tho finished prod net Is used for flavoring confectionery and beer, as well a entering Into the makeup of many brands of tobacco, Some Idea of the extent of the Indus. try may bo gathered when It Is stated that on the average 8.000 tons -of dry licorice root Is shipped from Aleppo annually, while Itagdad yields another aOOO tons.
