J. E. Morson of La Pine has pa!
up his proposition to the desert land

was largely along tho line ot that
which he previously submitted to the
board by letter, and which has beor
published, although his oral propo
sition includes tho west side as woll
as tho oast sldo lands on tho project.
He would have tho state purchase
tho lands and havo the dtstrlct de
veloped undor a special act ot con
gress. Tho matter has been taken
under advisement by tho desert land
board. Purchaso of tho land by the
stato would necossarily prosupposo
