EYES ARE OPENED DESCHUTES SETTLERS' ASSOCI ATION BEFORE LANS BOARD State Land Board Has Lively Session Methods of Irrigation and Power Co. are Discussed. - Tbeir eyes opened to the conditions Hurroundiug their settlement in the Deschutes irrigation diatriot through the publication of the proceedings had before the state land board, in the adjustment of the differences between the Descbntea Irrigation aud Power company, and the state engineer, in which the latter demanded that the company be required to establish and submit a set of roles, in accordance with the provisions of the Carey act before he would consent to approve applications for patent to alleged re (claimed arid lands, the Deschutes . Van a i . ""wiera- Association, recently formed, , uppearea uy counsel oeiore toe state laud board at Salem Tuesday after noon and entered a vigorous protest against the manner in which the ir rigation company is binding them down to contract without legal re course in case the provisions are in -any sense violated. The question was argued animatedly until late in the afternoon, when fnrt.hnr was postponed until the irrigation company can be represented by legal counsel, which will probably be a week whence. The difficulty arises between the settlers and the irrigation company in the discovery that, through the alleg ed misrepresentations of the company's representatives in submitting that the form of application for the purchases of laud whioh was approved by the state land board as provided in the Carey act, when the application blank approved by the land board was sup plemented by an agreement on the inside, the effect of whiob is claimed to deprive the settler of all of his rights in he premises and convert the use of bia money to the development of the project, beside the charge of a regular rate of interest on deferred payments. It was shown that it has been the v tun vuuinuj w icuuo tur; settlers to sign the application and agreement to take the land and make half payment upon it, the balance running for a specified period, bearing interest The settlers were also re quired to sign personal notes for the balance of the contract prioe, which notes, it is represented, .had been ne gotiated lor "convenience only," were transferred to a third party, and an issue of so-called collateral trust bonds is being made founded upon a deposit ; of those notes, which were supposed to be the settler's personal obligations, and free from any and all conditions. The attorney for the settlers sug gested that this was a proper time to require rules to be submitted and approved before application for patent was allowed, that settlers intending to use water may definitely know their rights and status before entering into contract with the company. After patent, under the contract whioh the settlers are now required to sign, the board would have no authority under the law to require the company to aubiaifcits rules and regulations. WILL HELP WALLOWA. Y 8ummoni. In the Justice Court for the District of Athena, Umatilla County, State of Oregon. H. O. "Worthinirtonl v i Civil action for the recovery of Money. O. B. N. Actively at Work Building Branch from Klgin. Charles Hood, formerly engaged in farming near Walla Walla, bnt now an extensive farmer of the Wallowa couutry, passed through the city yes terday en route home after a visit in Walla Walla, says the Pendleton Tribune. "It is beginning to look as if we are going to get a railroad into the Wal lowa country at last," Mr. Hood said. "The O. R. & N. is actively at work bnilding the branch from Elgin. The road will go through the town of Wallowa where I am now located and we have hopes that it will be con structed on to Joseph next year. "The lack of transportation facili ties is all that baa retarded the de velopment of the Wallowa country. As an instance, a few days ago I bought 2,080 pounds of fine timothy bay delivered at my barn for $5.50 per ton. The same hay in Pendleton would have brought from (12 to $14. The only market farmers bave for their produce is among themselves and the few towns in tne vicinity. Once a railroad is completed in that country it is going to boom and land values will double." Pew Prisoners at Pendleton- Only six prisoners are now confined in the county jaiL Three are await ing trial and three are serving jail sentences. This is an unusual record at the opening of the superior court. Llka Finding Money. Finding health is like finding money so think those who are sick.
