Wilbur, attor nsyfaod secretary ot tba irrigation die. tnct. the decision last Tuesday ot the supremo court in reversing and remand ing, for a hearing before thai State Water Board the case of the Oregon. umeer umpany vs.i ua East cork Irrigation District, marks.. the initial itep in, the water tight litigation that will overshadow anyjimilar case aver beard in Oregon. "As 1. Interpret the decision of the supremo court,'' ssys Mr. Wilbur, "the ease, when it is again opened before the State Water Board, wilt call not merely for an adjudication of rights aa existing between tbe Oregon Lumber Company and the Esst Fork Irrigation District, but for the rights, ss well, of ail interested psrties and concerns in the Hood river watersheds -. "Hood River' eouncy 'a two chief In terests, orcharding and electric power, both dependent on-the- stream- that bi sects the valley, will be brought face to fact in a battle that in local' circles will eclipse each former record casss sal that or the willow creek controversy, the North Powder River case- and Hough vs. Porter, the latter involving: a big district in- Kleraath county. According to Mr. Wilbur's predictions, tho following seven irrigation systems, covering ' in t the aggregate the eetire area" of the- freit district, will be aligned against - the Pacifre Power A Light Co. and the Oregon Lumber Co., the latter two concerns representing water power Interests; the Glacier Ir rigating Co.. the Ess) Pork Irrigstien District, tbe Mount - Hood Water Co the' MiOdle Fork Irrigating Ok, the Deo Power A hrigatmg Co., the Heed Rives Irrigation District and the Farrai er's Irrigatisg Co. The- esse ia question was taken so the supremo court from a decision of Circuit Judge Bradahsw ol.The Dalles, last year. Litigation- arose when' the district made preparations to make use of the greater portion of 7000 incbeaof water on the, Esst Fork of Hood river, to which it: alleged a tight. by prior filings. The lumber company maia tained In ita complaint, ia seeking to enjoin the district from the use of the water, that such a use would hamper it in tho operation of ita, largo electri cally driven sawmill at N Deo. The plaintiff company alleged that rights of tho irrigation district, had lapsed because of its failure to make continu ous development of its system for the use of the water. Since. .litigation, began, the lumber company - baa. installed at ita Deo-miU at an outlay of approximately $30,000, a steam turbino capable of furnishing power for the lumber plant. The East Fork District, since tbe case was opened, has spent in bringing! its: aisiriouuon system pracucauy 10 completion, approximately $100,009. The system covers 13.000 acres of orch srd land on tho east side of Hood Rivsr volley. "Some of the former eases mar have involved more territory than- will be drawn into tho case that will probably arise." said Mr. Wilbur, 'but none or them haa approached in tbe amount of j property valuation involved the- sura that will bo concerned in tho suit that; as it seems to me, is pending. In fact almost the entire assessed valuation of tho Hood River valley, approaching $10,0000,00, will bo drawn in on one or the other of tbe two sides of tho esse." Ernest C. Smith, attorney for the Or egon Lumber Co., concurs in tho msin with the interpretation- placed on the decision of the supreme court by Mr. Wilbur. Testimony in the ease, if it comes on for hearing aa predicted, will be taken by tho State Water Board. Tbe case will then come on again before the cir cuit court for hearing, and it is possi ble thst it may again go up to the su preme court for final adjudication. Attorney Smith, when naked lor a statement concerning tho matter said: "We are willina to try this case in the courts and have been unwilling to resort to or be quoted by the newspa pers. Bowover, : ia. view of much that has boon printed and th' unwarranted inforeneea which have been attempted, you may aay this : It must be appar ent to anyone at all familiar with-the case that the supreme court could have settled all Questions between, plaintiff and defendant by affirming Judge Btadahaw's decision, it it had though; that decision proper and in accordance with the law. This could have been done without jeopardising the righta of other water claimants, who wiu now appear, and it would have simplified matters. But Judge Bradahaw's decis ion wsa not affirmed, but it. wss re verted in every particular-and sent back by the supreme court with direc tion for asv adjodieatioBr of: water rights which will be worth while and a good thing lor the whole valley. COUNTY AUTO TRUCE RAISES PROBLEM The purchase of the new Packard automobile truck, with which it has been proposed to eeevey material from West Side county sand am) gravel pits to the Eaat Side roads, haa raited a question snd bss renewed agitation on tbe part of many to have the- county take over not only tbe steel bridge leading from State street to tbe Eaat Side credo across Hoed rivet, but the East Side grade and tbe boat landing road as well. The county waa warned against using the steel bridge tit hav ing been said by city officiate that the approach to the bridge might not be able to hold the heavy loads of tbe new road vehicle. The truck has a capacity of three and a half varde. It ia aaid that the city baa expanded the aura of more than $2000 on the steel bridge and its appreachee- since lsst December. "While tbe bridge and ita approaches would stand op under ordinary -traffic for another two years, perhaps.' aaya City Recorder Howe, "it e thought that the heavy traffic- imposed by the motor track would soon cause it to go to piecee. It is said that the boat landing road sad the East Side grade are used mere aa county thoroughfares than aa city streets . Ceuntyv officials wae gar the new truck a trial Monday in the Oak Grove district, are well pleased with, it - "We are making a trip every 40 min otea with the inechinet aaid - Commis sioner Hawkeay- Monday afternoon, "and it. seams like, a mighty good in vestmsnt to ue." KG-YEAR EXPECTED KM CLOUD CAP INN "Prospects are indicated for one of the beet - years- in the history of Cloud Can Inn.

"Mr. Smith tella no that pub licity work that haa been carried on by Portland and Oregon organisations win cause the- influx, of a greet nember of tourists, and it ia expected that -Cloud Cap will draw a large percentage of those who come to the northwest to glimpse at close quartan the mountain scenery of the CssesdeeJ' Cloud Cap Inn will open about July 1.

The snow is probably deeper on Mount Hood's side than any season since Cloud Cap Inn waa opened.''1 1 The Fatbion , Stablee , will feature specisl Sunday trips to tbe Inn this year. "We will make a specisl rate for parties of fives os six who desire to take iuseheon at the Ian," says Mr. Strana han. "If a party of aa many as 25, desire to make the trip any Sunday, wa will be in a position to handle them.
