Salem— More irrigation projects are
in jvisw for Eastern Oregon.
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.
