Willi Irrigation (junstlonH.'
A special seaeloit of tba letdalatura
to deaj with Irrigation and oiber
donations la to be culled by Govaus&r
Weal for December 1 aecordlng to re
port from ftalem following the meet
ing of tha Desert Land Hoard ffiore
on Monday. This, at least. Is the
Governor's praseet plan anil will be
carried out unlasa he changes hki
mind before tha tlma for the call
cornea.
Tho announcement was made at a
meeting of tho Desert Land Hoard
called to consider tho Governor's
proposition to declare forfeited all
Caroy Act projects that are In default
on their contracts with tho state. Tbe
motion made by the Governor had
no second and 'so did not oven eomo
to a rote.
The affairs of tho Central Oregon
Irrigation Company came In for con
alderable discussion aad the posltW
taken by State Knglncor Iwta In
regard to patenting certain Pilot
llutte lands was argued by all. Mr.
Lewis stood firm In his decision de
clining to make the necessary certi
fication of reclamation until the com
pany was ablo to deliver 1.8 acre feet
as called for by Its contracts with tho
settlors.
Although no reason has bean an
nouneed for Governor West's sudden
activity In Irrigation matters It la
understood that tbe chler cause la
the report on the North Canal project
of tho C. O. I. Co. which suggests
that only $110,000 should bo paid to
tho company for tho project In case
It Is taken over by the Heclamatloi
Service. Tho company's offer to tho
state was to turn over the project
for $300,000 and It Is reported that
the company officials now assert that
they would never accept the amount
suggested by the government engi
neer. In this connection an amusing
side of the r4tuatlon Is pointed out in
that when tho company officials
learned that ffhly $S0,090 hld'teen
recommended as the proper amount
to pay they Immediately began to
say things about State Engineer Lew
Is. blaming him for the report. Later
thoy had to take It all back when
they found that this finding waa by a
government engineer nnd that Lewis
had filed a supplemental refwrt
recommending the payment of $165.
400 lo the company Dor Ita S'ertk
Canal property. $111.(168 mnro than
tbe government investigator recom
mended.
The summary of the government
report Is aa follows:
Summary. For convenient refer
ence tbe principal findings with re

tbe propoaAla of the Central Oregon
