IRRIGATION OF OUR SEMI-DESERT
SECTIONS.
California has always been alive
and active in matters relative to
agriculture, and recent efforts to
have a proper consideration of the
question regarding the irrigation
of arid lands by the United States,
represented through a committee
appointed by the senate, with a
view of gaining suet information
on the subject as to enable them
to report and recommend for the
consideration of the next session
of congress that this body can
take necessary steps to irrigate the
desert and semi-desert land of the
Pacific coast, adds to the progress
ive laurels of that ever-productive
state. M. M. Estee, the chair
man of the local committee on the
subject, has issued a call to the
members tomeet the senate's com
mittee in San Francisco this week.
While California, through char
acteristic energy and foresight,
will receive the major part of the
benefit resulting from the Work of
these committees, it will result in
inestimable good to the whole of
the Pacific coast. Oregon and
Washington have large bodies of
land which, under favorable con
ditions, would produce the cereals
of the Pacific slope, all the fruits
of the Northwest, and add much
to the list of taxable property.
In Morrow couDty alone from
40,000 to 50,000 acres, known as
the sand belt, would be reclaimed
from a semi-desert state and made
desirable for agricultural, horticul
tural and fruit raising. The burn
ing sands would become cool, tem
pering the north winds which be
come heated in the Hummer season,
to the benefit of the whole of Mor
row county.
As winter range for cattle, sheep
and horses it accommodates thou
sands. But the time is now at
hand when no part of our country
capable of producing the cereals
and fruits can be allowed to lay
idle and vacant. The rougher
mountain ranges which are not
capable of being cultivated under
any circumstances, will serve well
as summer range for our stock. In
this section of both stock and agri
cultural interest, it is quite neces
sary for the stockmeu to purchase
large bodies of grazing lunds for
winter pasturage. They do not
nor can not depeud longer on gov
ernment grass.
The attention of these commis
sioners must be called to Morrow
county's semi-desert land. Flow
ing alongside is the navigable and
beautiful Columbia, whose waters
diverted from their natural course
to the great Pacific, would render
this the cream of our agricultural
lunds, relegating the sand-toad and
coyote to more remote and less en
terprising districts. Sagebrush and
greasewood would disappear along
with these old and familiar resi
dents, giving place for the hos
pitable home of the farmer and
fruit-raiser, and furnirdi to the
markets the choicest productions of
the orchard, garden and grniufield
to the benefit of our country, our
transportation companies and the
Northwest, in which we all have a
mutual interest.
THE
WHEAT CROP OF
PACIFIC STATES.
THE
From California comes the en
couraging report of a large wheat
crop. It has boen estimated that
2,000,000 tons of that cereal will
be raised in the golden state this
season. A telegram to the Orc
qonian gives figures that are start
ling to the' non-observer who passes
lightly over the great 2,000,000 ton
crop of California. It says:
"A little calculation shows that
this would load 200,000 cars. Al
lowing thirty feet to acor.it would
make a train 1,136 miles long. It
would require over 500 curs a day
for 3G5 days to take it out of the
state. It would load 2,000 ships,
allowing 1,000 tons to a ship. Al
lowing fifteen sacks to a ton, and
each Back thirty-two inches long,
and lay them end to end, and they
would reach 15,150 miles and have
one sack over."
Oregon and Washington are no
less prosperous this year, and will
produce fully as many bushels at
California in proportion to the
acreage. This enormous amount
of grain will seek largely a foreign
market, and suggests a big busi
ness for the various transportation
companies, and universal enjoy
ment of well-merited prosperity
for the whole of the Pacific elope.
A LOW CLASS OF BILKS.
A confidence man, a stranger
who claims the honor of knowing
you, your cousins, aunts, uncles,
and two or three generations of
your kindred and then ingratiates
himself into your good-will and
confidence, in order to work off on
you a bogus draft; a thimble-1
rigger who works his little game
bo plain and simple that the un
wary are sure tp be entrapped; the
check-raiser, hay-fork and fan-mill
swindler, lightning-rod bilks (the
latter of whom we know but little
here); the manipulator of worth
less checks; the road agent, pil
ferer and burglar are no more than
the man who gets into your debt
through a presumption of honesty,
and having the means with which
to pay, and when least expected,
jumps the country with his prop
erty and your hard-earned cash.
He is able to accomplish this, per
haps, by years of duplicity, the vic
tim only being able to discover the
better part of the bilk. This class
of mankind is worse than any of
the above-enumerated criminals.
He robs you, which is all that any
thief would do.
Residents of Morrow county have
had some experience with this class
of bilkism during the past year,
and those who not only suffered a
breach of confidence to the detri
ment of poor but honest men,
besides being fleeced, fully appre
ciate the just comparison of that
class of robbery with the bolder,
but none the less unprincipled,
modes of fleecing human kind.
THE S ASWAN TREATY.
On the 31st ult., the rough
draught of the Samoau treaty was
telegraphed to America and Eng
land. The State department, which
means Jus. Blaine, has nothing to
say regarding the final settlement
of the trouble, which reticence will
likely continue to be a character
istic of his actious till the signing
of the treaty proper and its ratifi
cation. It is said that Bismark has made
a complete backdown, his position
being decidedly wrong from the
first. Had the German consul re
frained from interfering with mat
ters which did not concern him nor
his country there would have been
no Samoan trouble. Bismark has
made au egregious failure in at
tempting to support a rotten policy.

.NKAHXY A TRAGEDY.
Newton Kanch the Scene of the Cuuttirt.
The report came to town last Satur
d y evening that Percy Blythe and G :o.
Copelsnd had had some difficulty w hich
resulted in Blythe being made a target
for "Cope's" repeating rille. Our reporter,
anxious to secure a full account of the
mntter, made some inquiries of Mr.
Blythe regarding the trouble, but he was
silent on the subject, and the g. r. was
compelled to piok up bis information as
best be conld.
Geo. Copeland, who is a pioneer herder
of these celebrated bills, has been em
ploped by Blythe in that oapaeity, and
white in town reoently gave an order
to E. L. Matlock on his employer for
some $40. This was duly aooepted, but
afterwards Blythe claimed as he only
owed "Cope" 818 he did , ot like to pay
the full nmouut. However, Mr. Mat
lock insisted on the payment which he
promised to make soon. This was on
Friday of last week, and nothing more
was thought of the matter.
On Saturday Blythe informed the men
at the Newton ranch that he was going
over to where "Cope" was herding to
give him a thumping. Coming up to
where "Cope" was looking after his
baud, he produced a penoil and asked for
a knife with which to sharpen it, saying
that lis desired to settle up. The knife
is a large one which "Oope" always has
with him, aud is his ouly means of de
fense, being an elderly man, ncripple, pos
sibly some below the medium size. At
this juncture Blythe suggested that the
sheep were scattering, and as "Cope"
turned to look after them, he received a
blow in the neck from Blythe which
knocked him down, itlytlie then gave
him a thorough beating, which was not
dilliriilt tor mm to u i, as he is u very
powerful young man and well skilled
iiitistic matters. Tnisoocurredjustafter
dinner on fSuturduy uud lilythe returned
to the ranch.
"Cope" looked after the sheep till even
ing, and after the band were corralled got
down his large repeating rifle, 45 eal., aud
struck out fur the Newton ranch to inter
view Mr. Wlvthe and have a further ex
change of courtesies, lilythe, Ijord aud
J. M. VVoruen were at supper, the gentle
man being attended by a Chinese oook.
"Cope" walked through the sitting room
into the dining apartment aud to the
kitchen door, which he threw open, level
ing his gun on lilythe, Baying, "you s-n-of-a-b
h, 1 have got you," and pulled
the trigger, but from some reason the
cartridge did not explode, lilythe jumped
to his feet aud ran through the pantry
into tlie dining-room, followed by the
Chinaman. Justus Blythe passed through
the door, "Cope" shot at him, coming so
close that it tilled his faoe with splinters.
A window in the dining-room ulforded
speedy means of escape, and through it
went lilythe and the oook. "Cope" was
still on the war-path and followed him
out, but tlin object of his wrath was
some distunce awny. Mounting an old
field-roller, he took deliberate aim at
him, but without effect. Blythe was ell
over toward tho Hperry ranch by this
time. He came over to Hughes canyon
and from there to Heppner, where he re
lated the story of the encounter to
Deputy Sheriff Hairington as well as
any mau could who had been a turgetfor
a large rillo in the hands of a deliberate
man.
Mr. lilythe desires to leave for England
shortly, and it is not likely that ho will
make auy complaint as a proseouting
witness. "Cope" is known as a dead
shot, and while peaceable generally, is
determined and revengeful when smart
ing under a wrong, and Peroy can thank
his Creator that he escaped with his life.
