Alumni and ex-KtmUnts of the Ore
Eon Agricultural ColleRe residing in
Umatilla county have formed an as
sociation and Kve their first ban
quet Tuesday night. Among the
guests who were jjressnt was Presi
dent Kerr of the college. The mem
berg of the afttouiittion hope to make
this baniiuet an annual event.
An enlarged picture and a dia
mond ring or a rocker chair for cood
measure, all for f 2.98, were tho ia
uucenientg held forth by a trio of
Binooth-talkine fakers who Induced
large number of Itosebiirg women to
part with 2. 9S ench. After collect
ing the 52.98, the fakers told their
victims to cull at a local store and
get the prizes. Hero they discovered
the merchant know nothing of the
scheme.
Appropriations aggregating almost
suu,ouo will be asked of the com
ing session of the legislature, for
tho maintenance of the State Insane
Asylum and for repairs and improve
ments for the ensuing year. This is
an increase of $200,000 over the
appropriations of two years ago, or
an increase of 33 per cent. The re
port asks for appropriations upon tho
assumption that no branch asylum
will be provided for in Easlern Ore
gon. The percentage of recoveries,
computed upon tho number received
fluting the period, Is 22 per cent.
Senator Fulton held a conference
with the Director of the Reclamation
Service, Sunday Washington, roln
tlve to requests ho has received from
settlers on (he Klamath Irrigation
project, for nn extension of time for
making water payments to the Gov
ernment. Settlers were under the
Impression that their entries would
be cancelled If payment were not
mado by May next. Director Newell
Informed Mr. Fulton that navments
on the first unit of this project will
become due May 1, 1909, but set
tlors will have one year's grace In
which to pay up. Therefore, settlors
will not be in danger of having en
tries i-iuiccli'd unless they are de
linquent with payments after May
1, 1910. It is the policy of tho de
partment to give settlers two full sea
sons of irrigation before requiring
them to make the first payment.
In the suit of tho State of Oregon
ngnlnst the Columbia Southern Irri
gation Company for the reclamation
of an extensive tract in Eastern Ore
Ton, tho Btato offered testimony to
show that whllo the project proposed
the development of about 27,000
acres, there was only sufficient water
for Irrigating about 1500 acres. It
will be on this showing that tho
state expects to be authorized to re
scind tho contract that was originally
entered into with th.) Three Sisters'
Irrigation Company, which subse
quently transferred its Interests to
the Columbia Southern Irrigating
Company. A law is being drafted to
determine the water rights of tho
state under the direction of a com
mittee representing the Oregon Con
servation Commission and which has
called to Its assistance several prom
inent authorities connected with the
Government Irrigation service.
Christmas was made as merry ns
possible for the Inmutes, of (lie nix
public institutions located in Salimi.
At the insane asylum, where 1500
uufortunatcB are cared for, a musical
entertainment and Christmas tree
was given Christinas eve. An excelent
Turkey dinner was served. At the
penitentiary a special dinner was
nerved, nlinis tho turkey, but with
an ubundance of roast Meat and
plum pudding. Christmas eve the
prisoners guvo an entertainment in
the chapel. The Christmas tree in
the Keform School was in the form
of a huge bell, made of evergreen
boughs. At the close of the exercises
presents were distributed, each boy
receiving some useful gift, together
with a bag of candy and a box of
nuts. The duy wus also ckservod
at tho Mute School and tho mind
School, where everything was done
to bring cheer to the unfortunato
children at these institutions.
