' lilv Jfr ' On January 1 4 you will be called on to decide the most important question ever placed before; the settlers on the C. O. I. Company segregation. The question is whether or not you will take into your own hands the management of the irrigation works embraced in this district. Subject to the approval of your votes the directors of the district have contracted with the C. O. I. Company for the purchase of all unsold lands in the district, all water rights, and all other property of the company including rights and assets of great value to your dis trict. You are asked to vote a bond issue of $240,000 for the purpose of paying for these rights and properties. If the purchase is confirmed, the bonds voted and the sale put through, important benefits will accrue to all. Those having excess acreage will be taken care of. Those having unpatented land will be placed in position to get .their patents at once. Every settler will be assured enough water for irrigation pur poses, regardless of the form of his contract. Meetings for the purpose of discussing the plan will be held as follows: Redmond, December 28, at 2 p. m. Powell Butte Community Hall, January 2, at 8 p. m.
