The United States reclamation service has made three important filings on Eastern Oregon streams within the past few days. The filings were made on the Umatilla, Owyhee and Malheur rivers and are on record in the office o f the state engineer. A t this time the filings are not defi nite enough to admit of any enlarge ment upon the proposed projects that the United States government expects to make. The filings must be approved and several months will be consumed before anything of a definite nature can result from them. The topographical surveys that have been made in Eastern Oregon are the most valuable means whereby feasible reclamation projects are discovered At the last session of the legislature an attempt was made to increase the ap prppriation from $5,000 to $20,000 an nually for making these surveys. The bill passed the house but failed to pass the senate The bill failed mainly because the Eastern Oregon senators opposed it, those representing the section to be most benefited by the appropriation. Consequently, the irrigation projects must come more slowly. For every dollar the state appropriates for the topographical surveys the United States appropriates another dollar. Had the bill that was piloted through the house by Representative Rusk passed the sen ate $40,000 a year would have been available. The state engineer has gone to W y oming to study the workings o f the water code of that state, which was the model from which was formed Oregon’s new code. Mr. Lewis expects to be absent about 10 days or two weeks. Publicity Pendleton— Business men from all parts o f the county, with the excep tion of the east end, met in Pendleton recently to form a county publicity bureau and partake o f a banquet pre pared by the Pendleton Commercial association. Arrangements were made for raising $50,000 to carry on the work of the bureau for a year. This is to include the salary of a secretary, who is to conduct a press bureau simi lar to those used in exploiting exposi tions. Half o f this sum is to be raised in Pendleton and half in the county out side. A certain portion is to be allot ted to each section, and committees were appointed to see that the asses- ments are raised. Enthusiasm prevailed and there is no doubt the desired amounts will be raised in the 10 days allowed. It was practically decided to discontinue the promiscuous sending out of pamphlets "nd to spend more money in newspaper advertising and the expenses of a pub licity agent, who will take care of in quiries, sending information and per sonal letters when requested. Frank L. Merrick, of Portland, who has been connected with the publicity departments of the Portland and Seat tle fairs, is being considered for pub licity agent. He was present at the meeting.
