On the Political Horizon.
Among those who are being men
tioned for the republican nomination
for Governor next year are C. A.
Johns, of Baker City, Judge L. R.
Webster, of Portland, I. L. Patterson
and T. T. Goer, of Salem, Dr. James
Witbycombe, of Oorvallis, M. A.
Moody, of The Dalles, Dr. W. Kuyken
dall, of Eugene, Judge II. L. Benson,
of Klamath Falls and our own E. L.
Smith of Hood River.
Mr. Smith modestly declares he has
no gubernatorial aspirations. He
has never sought political honors.
Nevertheless he stands well in the
lead among the prominent men of the
state. He would be a credit to Ore
gon in the govenor's chair.
Claude Uatch, P. T. Wrightman,
and Lot L. Pierce, of Salem, are be
ing boomed by their friends for sec
retary of state, while W. H. Hobson,
of Stayton (Marion county), E. V.
Cartor, of Ashland, and Dr. R. E
LeeSteiner, of Lakeview, are talked
of for state treasurer. It is also un
derstood that J. R. Whitney, state
printor, will be a candidate for re
election. There are numerous would-be can
didates for the republication nomi
nation for Congress In the first dis
trict. It is generally understood that
Dinger Herman will not be a candi
date for reelection. Walter L. Tooze,
"the man that made Woodburn fam
ous," Colonel E. II of or, editor of the
Capital Journal (Salem), and Wm. I,
Vawter, representative from Jackson
and Douglas conuties are said to be
candidates for Congress in the first
district, and the little birds say that
I. II. Bingham, of Lane county and
P. R. Kelly, of Linn, are listening
with attentive ears to the buzz of the
Cngressionai bee. Should Judge liar
ris of Eugene decide to enter the
race he oould fdoubtless sooure the
nomination without much trouble.
As "Bob" Veatoh and J. K. Weath-
erford are tired of being trotted out
for the biennial slaughter,- Robert
Ulen Smith, the "gentleman from Jo
sephine," will probably be the dem
ooratlo candidate for oougress In the
first district.
In the second district it would be
presumptuous to make forecasts at
this distant date. That there will be
a shaking up in this district seems
apparent. There may be a turning
over In Wasco county. When the wol
fare of a community is thwarted to
assist the interests of an individual
politician, there is frequently a revolt
lu this day aud age. Any sort of a
democrat would bejpreferred to certain
republicans, if it must be certain re
publicans.
With two congressmen, a governor,
a full state tioket, and a legislature
due to select a United States senator
all to be nominated and elected next
year, there cortaiuly will be big things
doing lu Oregon politics.
The business men of Medford have
taken $17,000 of stock in the Medford
k Crater Lake railroad, which will be
built this year as far as Eagle Point.
The railroad will tap a very rich tim
ber country.

February Weather Was Cold.
Well it is as usual the unexpected
which has happened. We had just
done congratulating ourselves on the
mildest winter for Hood River in the
history of the city when on Febru
ary 10th the weather man started
in to see what a jolly time he could
make for us, reminding us of the
days back in the old Hawkeye state
when the weather used to freeze up so
hard it would break oft in chunks.
The mercury began to go down in
the tul io just like there was a hole in
the bottom, until the night of the
11th, when it reigstered 2 degrees
above zero, the coldest record made
since January 1902, when the lowest
Point reached was 3 below,
On the Llth the temperature began
gradurally to rise and at the eud of
the mouth the max! mum stood C2
and the minimum 44 above. The
highest point reached in the month
was 08 on the 24th aud the lowest was
2 on the night of the 11 th.
Precipitation was very light for Feb
ruary, only 1.22, which Included the
4-inch fall of snow on the 10th, at
which time we were treated to the
dust storm. On the evening of the 19th
there were several loud peals of thunder
off toward Mount Hood which gave
rise to hopes of rain, but the month
cloned as dry as tho municipality of
Hood Klver.
Since 1884 there have been but two
other years when the precipitution
during the month of Febrnarry. was
as light as that of this year: 18K9,
when the precipitation was .05 of an
inch, and 1895, when it was 1.10.
There were 10 clear days, 6 partly
cloudy and 12 partly cloudy.
FAVOR BONDING
TO GET WATER
When a rising vote was taken by
the farmers at their meeting Tuesday
afternoon at the Barrett school bouse,
some GO declared themselves in favor
of forming a bonding district for the
construction of an irrigating system,
and about 20 voted in the negative.
The members of the county court
Judge Lake and Commissioners Hib
bard and Btaughton mot that after
noon with the farmers in order to get
an understanding of the proposition
set forth in the petition of the Barictt
farmers. In the forenoon the mem
bers of the court wore shown over the
farming lands in the proposed irrigat
ing district by J. H. Sheomakor, one
of the leaders in the movement for
the bonding district.
In the afternoon 100 farmers gath
ered at the school bouse, and at 1 :45
were called to order by F. O. Sher
rleb, who, lu the absence of Chair
man Anims. was presiding ollicer for
the meeting. C. E. Markham was
secretary.
That the farmers needed more water
was not disputed. How best to got it
was the proposition in tne minus oi
all. A great majority of those present
had very decided opinions that by
creating a bonding district of the
farming lands within tne proposed
irrigating district the water problem
oould be best solved. Others believed
the bonding proposition the most un
wise mothod of solution.
Those favoring the bonding scheme
explained that there are but 250 oi
275 inches of water available for 10, 7U'
acres of laHd. They were convinced
that a ditch could be constructed lor
mum or less, that would bring out
sufficient water to meet the needs of
the farmers for years to come. The
farmers must have the water and they
cannot see any other way than by
bonding to get it. All other schemes
hnva failed.
Those opposed to the bonding idea
said it will take an expenditure of
tfi.OOO to make surveys aud a definite
estimate of the cost, which they say
will not lie less than $75,000 and rimy
amount to $125,000. When only the
lands of those who can legally be re
tallied within the proposed bonding
district (are considered, the total
assessed valuation of the proprety will
bo only 0,000. As the irrigating
ditch will cost this much if not more,
where can the bonds be sold, ask
those who oppose the scheme.
M. P. Iseubenr started the discus
slon bv declaring that if the cost of
the bonding scheme was within reason
he favored it. othorwlse he wanted
out a nick.
Chairman Sherrieb declared there
was no way to get at the cost ques
tion until the bonding district was
formed and the assessment levied to
riHV the expenses of a competent sur
veyor. He believed the ditch could
be constructed for $00,000 at the out
side.
O. R. Castner said there were 250
or 275 inches of water for present use
There is no water in sight, and "what'
he declared, "are our lauds worth
without water? We are willing to
take the chances to see what the cost
will be. Estimates have been made,
I beleive, that water can be brought
from Sandy Flat at a cont not to ex
ceed $15,000. Water we need, water
wa must have, Jjet us tie ourselves
together and got it."
"Where are we to got water rroni
anvother sonrco?" asked J. H. Shoo
maker. "The country through which
the ditch will have to be built olfers
a difficult route over which to bring
water. We must have the water, and
we must pay for getting it out some
time or other. If private capital
nuts in a ditch we must pay enougli
for rentals to return Interest on the
capital invested.
Some of the farmers in the foot
bills wanted to know how high in
water could lie brought for them, and
It was explained that water from the
Supply Co's. ditch would be used on
the uplands, E, Locke, who lives in
the extreme northwestern corner of
the proposed district, declared that it
would be Impossible to get water to
him. He had plenty of water and
would pull out of the district any
way. He moved that a vote be taken
to see If those who have water would
be set out of the bonding district.
Judge Lake arose and stated there
was too much rambling otf tho qnes
tlon. He could see that the farmer
wanted water. What the court was
there for was to find out how many
wanted in the proposed irrigating dis
trict and how many did not. lie was
anxious to have a vote taken to show
how many favored the project.
Frank Davenport stated that he
favored the project personally, but
the lumper company of which ho was
a member did not.
Commissioner Hibbard then quoted
the law, which states that property
indirectly benefitted, even if it In) a
brick building in the city, is con
sidered subject to taxation in the dis
trict. John Wilson moved that a vote be
taken. Angus seconded tho motion.
Charles E. Warrens arose to state
that he had plenty of water and that
be considered It uurair mat no siioum
be taxed to get water for bis neigh
bor, when it would not enhance t he
value of his property.
Chairman Sherrieb declared that
Warrens got water liooatiso his neigh
bors, permitted him to have it.
A. A. Jayne, owner of 9S acres of
land in the proposed bonding district
and also attorney for those opposing
the move, boileros the bonding
scheme would work an injury to the
property. ' 1 We want water, ' ' declared
Mr. Jayue. "but we don't want to
pay too much for it. There is such h
thing as water being too expensive.
I want to see what it will cost before
I buy water. This whole scheme an
pears a sort of an educationtal scheme
a plan to spend loOUO to see if we
can get water.
"The assessed valuation of the land
In the proposed district is $711,000. If
all those were set out who want to get
out. the value might be only $n0,tW.
What would bond buyers think of
such a proposition?
"The thing to do is to raise money
and pay for a ditch of our own. Much
of the laud in the proposed district, is
uot susceptible to irriagtiou from the
same combined source. It would cost
almost as much to enlarge the npiier
ditch as to build the main ditch.
According to the statute, lands
within the district must be assessed
in proportion to the benefit each
piece separately receives. Those us
ing the water would have to pay all

'1 do not believe there Is a law
that would not tax laud on which wa
ter can be placed." declared (1. U.
Castner. He llrmly believed that the
vacant Jamison tract in tho Crupper
distrio could bo taxed to pay its just
proportion of expense in bringing out
the ditch, anil taxed at an increased
value because of tho water that could
be placed on the bind.
J. 11. Shoemaker figures out ttiat
within 20 years at the usual rate per
Inch, the fanners will have paid an
outside company 1.")0,(KU, a Hum sulll
oient, to build two such ditches as
needed.
A rising vote was then taleii.
Cost too (ireiit Without Water.
"It is not a question of how much
it will cost to get water, but how
much it will cost to get along with
out it," remurked J. 11. Shoemaker
as ho left for The Dulles Wednesday
morning, to be present, when tho pe
tition for a bonding district came up
before the eoii'ity court that after
noon. "We have tried our host to got
water by other means, but (hey have
all failed, " continued Mr. Shoemak
er. "There is no use talking, we
cannot get along without it. Tho cost,
without water is far greater I ban the
proposition of bonding, even though
it, cost us ?10 an inch to get it in that
way." '
F. C. Sherrieb accompanied Mr.
Shoemaker to The Dulles.
