"Tho mcnBuro constitutes an important obstaclo in tho way ot tho nntl-di- vlsloulsts," was his opinion. New Law to Bo Final. Tho district nttornoy stated that tho other mcasuro pending In tho legislature, "creating tho county of Doschutcs," would effectually put a stop to all questioning ot tho nu thorlty of tho now county to do biiB lnoss as a municipal corporation, and would mako furthor hearings In tho quo warranto proceedings unnoces1 sary.

LEE URGES THAT LAND NEAR PRINGLE FALLS BE OP ENE1) TO SETTLEMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT. (From Saturday's Dally.) Backing tho petition submitted to Secretary of Agriculture Houston, for tho elimination from tho Des chutes National forest, ot tho land near Prlngla Falls, Is a lotter writ ton to tho secretary by A. D. Loo, In which tho results ot a careful Inves tigation of soil and cllmato condi tions ot tho locality are given. Ho states that tho land is lovel, all tillable and that tho pumlco Is finer than tho pumaclous 'soils for merly ollmlnatod near La Pino and Crescent. Nitrogen content of tho soil Is described as low, but readily built up by turning under clover, or other legumes. Root crops, Mr. Lee assorts, aro readily cultivated, and ho considers tho section as Ideal for dairying. In Its natural state, however, tho land Is not best adapted to grazing pur poses, ho declares, bocauso too much ot the grass is pulled up by tho roots from the loose soil. In closing, Mr. Leo says: "Rain fall Is sufficient to produco root crops and oats and rye. Water Is in abundance and with oloctrlcal power from Prlnglo Falls, cheap pumping Installation may be had that will Ir rlgato tho entlro section profitably, and make It as Ideal for alfalfa as any ot the irrigated districts ot Cen tral Oregon. I feel that the land should be thrown open to settlement by the department." YOUR HEALTH.
