CONFIDENCE.
Tho State Land Board did exactly
right in coming to the assistance of
the Tumalo project. It has extend
ed to the sottlcrs tho hand of real
co-operation It has given tho men
on the Tumalo lands the opportunity
to finance their project to completion.
The waters of Tuinnlo creek have
been extraordinarily Ion-, due to the
excessively light snow fall In the
mountains. What with tho low water,
and some leaks In tho floor of the
Tumalo reservoir, the Immediate out
look for tho project has not been
overly bright Hut by expending
some $5,000 and with It completing
the diversion of Crater Creek to re
lnforco Tumalo creek, an ample
water supply Is assured for this
season nnd also an excess of water
sufficient to test out tho reservoir and
make possible the mending of leaks
which can only be discovered and
cured by flooding tho floor of the big
artificial pond.
Originally tho State lent money
to build tho Tumalo project. It Is
assured that every cent will be paid
back, with profit and Interest. Now,
to complate a detail of tho undertak
ing hitherto not vital, tho settlers
will borrow a few thousand more dol
lars from the school fund, and tho
last kinks will bo straightened out.
I)y permitting tho settlers to have
this money the Hoard has put It to
service In n way that could not be
battered. Mora Important, its mem
lrers novo shown their confidence In
tho project and In Irrigated lands.
Had the Land Hoard refuted to
make loans on these Irrigated tracts,
It would. In effect, hate condemned
Irrigated development In tho state.
Hut tho chairman of the Hoard, Gov
ernor Wlthycombe, came out BtronK
ly In favor of the loan. Ho expressed
himself with enthusiastic confidence
Ho said tho Improved Tumalo lands
Are worthy security, And as ho Is
an acknowledged authority on agri
culture and land values, his fellow
members ncccpted his advice.
..In short, tho Tumalo project has
had another otnclal "O. K." placed
tipon It. Not only that, but artificial
ly watered lnnds with adjudicated
rights havo, ns n class, received rec
ognition. It Is a distinct expression
of confidence in irrigation and In
Central Oregon. Wo have rcaBon to
bo satisfied, and grntuful especial
ly tho Tumalo settlers and to re
member that confidence hegots confidence.
ROAD SIGNS.
Tho Oregon Voter says:
"Crook county newspapers, ospo
clolly Tho Mend Uulletln, nro agitat
ing tho mnttor of road signs. Tho
state law require that road super
visors shall not bo permitted to drnw
pay for work ilono until thoy havo
placed direction boards at road Inter
sections The purpose of tho law is
excellent, but It Is Impractical In
operation. It take money to build
nnd replace mid posts, and tho
fundi should lie provided Ueforo ay
penalty Is laid upon the overworked i
nnd underpaid supervisor, ir the
county feels It cannot afford to apnd
tho nionev. do not take It out of too
stipnrvlacr'M htila."
Nut ontlroly right, Brother Chap

It Ik worth while trying to stir a

DKSIUAULH PUBLICITY
The Oregon Voter has this to ear:
Under tho law county boards are
required to innke a owl-nnHat fla-
anolal statement at the end of the
first six months of each year.
"SovortU eountlos have ptmimaeu

Two weeks ago we challenged the
proponents of the so-called Steldl &
Tweet franchise to publish their
water rates as compared with our
rate. It seems highly Inconsistent
for them to promise to reduce the
electric rates when It is a fact that
they are now charging the people of
Wlestoria, Lytle and Riverside two
dollars for the same Eervlce which
we give for one dollar. odv

WHY THIS INCONSISTENCY?
To tho Voters of Bend:
In last week's Issue of Tho Bulle
tin the proponents of the so-called
Steldl & Tweet franchise In attempt
ing to answer our challengo of two.
weeks ago quoted Mr. Foley as say
lng that If the flour mill franchise
was granted we would bo compelled
to raise our rates from 1C to 20 per
cent.
This contortion of what Mr. Foley
said was not necessary. Ills state
ment was published and could have
been referred to for nn exact quota
tion, which would have disclosed that
he said no such thing.
What Mr. Foley said was as fol
lows:
"Because oven this low rate that
tho flour mill would pay us will rep
resent between 16 and 20 per cent of
our net ravenue for electricity and
If this revenue Is taken away. It will
mnko It necessary for the Railroad
Commission to fix tho rates that
much higher than if this .franchise is
nbt granted. !"
"This docs not mean that tho
rates will bo necessarily that much
higher ttfnn they are now, but that
they will be that much higher than
what tho commission would mako
them If wo had this flour mill roe
nue." This Is the fact. Tho Commission
fixed our rates so as to produce n
fair return on tho Investment. When
tho flour mill franchise was granted
our revenuo was reduced and tho
rates fixed by the Commission were
