It Is Ihe prevailing opinion of tho

the action taken by ILL. Holgate will
iimisu to be dono nno of two things.
That the government will cither quit

'i chance or will go ahead themselret.
Tho speeches made by the people sent
here by the government at the begin
ning do not seem to conform with
tho present condition of the situa
tion. While wo are unanimously In
favor of tho project at tho time, we
Iv.ve lost almost entire confidence In
the government officials. One feature
that does not seem to us to bo fair It
the Inck ot ' assurance ot anything
being done at any given time. This
is known at Washington a the Klam
ath project and all of tho people bare
to pay equul assessments both here

Jan. II. Dixon Is in the city today
from his ranch. He says that he has
Just began cutting his barley and he
finds that It is not quite up to the
average. In some parts of the valley
farmers are beginning to cut wheat,
but the most of It will not bo ready
for harvesting for about ten days.
Mr. Dixon Is ot the opinion that the
ct op will bo short In the county, but
that tho price will be very good.
What is believed to be tho largest
real estate transfer In tho history of
Klamath county was consummated
late this afternoon. Tho considera
tion In the transfers amounted to
Just even $90,000, and the deals wcro
for spot cash, the money being paid
on the delivery of the deeds today.
The big land deals occurred be
tween Major Chas E. Worden, presi
dent ot tho American Bank & Trust
Company ot this city, and Senator
Abner Weed, ot California. Mr. Weed
purchased of Major Worden 960 acres
of fine agricultural and hay land In
the Wood river valley. This tract
adjoins the big body of land already
owned by Senator Weed and gives
him a total of approximately 19,000
acres.
The other deal between these two
gentlemen was tho purchase by 'Mr.
Worden ot what Is known as tho
Bush tract, comprising 2400 acres,
S000 ot which It und.r the govern
ment Irrigation dltc'n. Mr. Worden
alrsoty own ovw S00 acrea of land
adjoining this tract.
HORSEMEN ARE
HOLDING STOCK
"There la not much demand for
horses at this time," said J. Frank
Adams when asked about the horso
market In Klamath county, "A few
cavalry horses are wanted by buyers
who are now In the field, but aside
from this tho market It not strong.
There are buyers In tho Held but
many ot them are trying to take ad
vantage ot the dull times and are
telling the ranchers that horses aro
not worth anything, but that they
sill buy it they can get them reason
able. The demand Is not good at this
time but It will come out all right."
Mr. Adams Is perhaps tho most ex
tensive buyer ot horses In this sec
tion and he Is In touch with the mar
kets of the California cities. Ho has
a large number of horses at his ranch
and expects to bold them until there
Is a better market.
