Methods of Irrigation and

- 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.

Money.

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."
