POSTPONE DATE OF
NEW RATE OPERATION
SALKM. Or.. July 30. -Dr. An
drew C. Smith of Portland tins plac
ed on filo in thu statu engineering
office hero maps covering an exten
sion of tho Umatilla reclamation
project initiated last year by tho
United States government. Dr.
Smith states in his communication
that if the United States government
can be prevailed upon to relinquish
its interests a private company, of
which Mr. Smith is thu head, will
carry out thu project.
This action on the part of Dr.
Sjnitli is construed by State En
gineer John I. Lewis an an indica
tion that the United States govern
ment is about to abandon thu only
project in Oregon which is in a po
sition to bo benefited by tho $20,-
000,000 reclamation bonding act
pasced by congress last winter and
which was allowed to bo enacted
without protest from Congressman
W. R. Ellis, whose district was so
vitally interested in tho bill.
Oregon Loses Opportunity.
Though Oregon ban contributed
more to the reclamation fund than
any other stato in tho Union, save
IKiflsibly one, she now has lost hor
last and only opportunity to benefit
one iota from that fund.
Only recently work wns ordorod
stopped on the project at Klamaih
Kails and rcclanmtiou work in this
stato is practically at a standstill,
with no indications of any immedi
ate improvement in conditions, duo
entirely to a lack of vigilauco on tho
purl of Oregon's representation in
the lower house of congress, who al
lowed Oregon's millions to slip
through their hands to be expended
for betterments and improvements in
tho rcelnamtion of arid lauds in Ne
vada and other stnlos.
Abandoned liy Government.
Tho maps filed by Dr. Smith are
identical with those prepared by the
government for tho Umatilla exten
sion, They cover a project embracing
00,000 acres. According to Dr.
Smith's letter to the stato engineer,
he has been in communication with
the interior department and has re
ceived asHuraiico that the govern
ment docs not intend to proceed
with this project.
Tho act nnssod liv conuress allows
only those projects to benefit from
the bonding enactment that had been
already initiated and wore under
way. This was tho only such pro
ject iu Oregon. It moans a com
plete loss to this stato of any bene
fits from tho reclamation fund so
liberally contributed to by Oregon
from tho sale of her public lauds.

IRRIGATION
THE ROGUE RIVER VALLEY CANAL COMPANY,
a Corporation duly incorporated under the laws of the
State of Oregon, has completed surveys and plans for the
enlargement' and extension of the FISH LAKE WATER
COMPANY'S canals which it has acquired.
The project, when completed, will serve all that part
of the valley lying between the foothills on both sides
of Bear creek, from Talent on the south, to Rogue river
on the north a total area of approximately 55,000 acres.
It is the Company's intention to diligently prosecute
the work of construction already commenced, to be in a
position to meet all demands made for irrigation service
at as early a date as possible.
Lands lying under the Hopkins Canal can be supplied
with water for the season of 1911, and the Company is
now prepared to execute contracts for perpetual water
rights on any part of this area.
That construction may not be delayed on Canal lines
yet to be built, the Company desires an expression from
the land owners of the valley as to their needs for water,
and to this end will appreciate amplications being made
so that requirements for construction may be anticipated.
The cost of perpetual water right will be $50.00 per
acre, payable one-fifth (1-5) in cash, the balance in four
(4) equal annual installments, bearing six per cent (6
per cent) interest.
The annual maintenance charge for water delivery will
be $2.50 per acre, per annum, payable at tho Company's
office on or before January 1st of the year in which serv
ice is required.
Payments on both Water Rights and Maintenance be
come due and paj'ablc only after actual delivery of water
to the laud.
