E have it on unimpeachable authority that the officers o f the
Columbia Southern irrigating company have made a proposal
to plaintiffs in the suit against the company that said suit be post
poned until January 1. 1900. The company promises, if this be
done, to interest Chicago capital and proceed with the work under
its more or less dog-eat-dog contract with the state of Oregon to
improve this segregation. The company further agrees that should
its officers be unable to interest the Chicago capital aforesaid, it
will enter into an agreement with the settlers and water users to
waive all its rights in the action and to not contest the suit after
the date of postponement is passed in January. In other words, the
company asserverates its intention to either interest Chicago capi-1
tal in the segregation enterprise or to allow a decree to be entered ]
against it by the court-
W
Plausible, isn’ t it? Very honest, unduly honest, on its face!
But it smells like the prewerbial nigger in the woodpile.
Why? Let us see:
The statute o f limitations, by January 1, 1909. will probably help
Mr. W . A. Laidlaw to escape certain responsibilities, though we
can’t say how much.
January 1. 1909. Gov. Chamberlain will go out of office, and Gov.
Benson will go in. We know Chamberlain’s fairness in the matter,
but Benson’s attitude as chairman of the state land board is un
known.
January 1, 1909, State Engineer Lewis will po out o f office. H a *
may be re-appointcd by the new governor, and he may not. Should
a pliant state engineer be appointed to succeed Lewi«, all of we
bamboozled settlers would have to take to the tall timber.
No one wants to give up the fight!
Do it today!
W rite those two!
