W. C. Sawyer and J. H. Lewis,
two government employes connected
with the geological survey, have
been here for the past few days
looking after the water gauges in
Silvies river. The presence of these
gentlemen has led some to suppose
that the government bad not aban
doned the Harney valley irrigation
project and some were under the
impression that possibly the recla
mation service was considering to
continue investigations further be
fore allowing the withdrawal to
again be thrown open for settlement.
Such is not the case. These gen
tlemen inform The Times-Herald
that an appropriation is made for
the purpose of measuring streams
which has no connection witlw the
reclamation service and that such
measurements are conducted in all
sections of the United States. The
two ganging stations will remain in
Silvies river and those having
charge of thia work will visit them
at intervals to make notes of any
changes of the water flow, change
in the channel, etc.
While these have no connection
with the reclamation service, the
gauge in Silver creek and one to be
established at the lakes are for the
purpose of ascertaining the water
flow for information looking to the
taking up of the irrigation project
there.
Mr. Lewis left today in company
with Engineer Whistler for the Sil
ver Lake section where the govern
ment is investigating an irrigation
project. Mr. Sawyer will return to
his headquarters at Pendleton.

The local Land Office last Thurs
day received instructions from j
Washington to the effect that by
recommendation of the director of
the Geological Survey, the Depart

Land Office to revoke the order'
withdrawing lands in connection j
with the Harney valley irrigation j
project and restore them to status |
prior to order of suspension.
This means that the thousands
of acres withdrawn from entry in
this valley have been restored and |
can now be taken up under the

drawal included some of the beet
