50 and the department iu Portland
was asked to take up tho matter of
securing tho Roseburg company of
tho militia. In addition to this the'
,office was notified that 250 addi
tional troops would bo rushed to
this section as soon as they were
available. They will probably bo '
here within tho next thrco days. '
Fearing that enough men could not ,
bo secured ln this manner Acting ,
Supervisor Swennlng took tho mat
ter up with tho Reclamation service '
asking that tho men engaged on tho
irrigation system at Klamath Falls be
sent to Buck Lake to fight the fires
on Clover creel:. He had not re
ceived a reply at a lato hour last
night. 1
The Ashland Fires
The fires that aro boyond control
on tho Ashland divldo have already
burned over two square miles, and
are spreading with tho greatest rap-
Idity. Over 100 mea are fighting
this fire and 35 additional woro sent
out late this afternoon. This fire
is working havoc with the Ashland
water supply as the timber being
burned is entirely on tho water shed
of Ashland creek. Ashland has had
a short supply in tho past and It Is
feared that with impaired storage
the supply will bo so greatly dlraln
Ished that It will work a great in
jury to tho city. Sovoial private
holdings of timber have been burned
over and tho damage Is tremendous.
It is for tho purpose of controlling
this fire that the request for tho
Roseburg company of militia was sent
ln. I
