TILIiAMOOli PEOPLE THRRVT
KX TO RECALL HIM
SALEM, Dec. 10, Charging incom
petency, approximately S00 citizens of
Tillamook county havo nled a petition
with Secretary of State Olcott, asking
for the recall of M. J. Gorsonl, dis
trict attorney of that county.
They allege that lu addition to be
ing Incompetent, he has ubsented him-
s&me Is tho case elsewhere, thus de
pleting the lucomo of the commission.
Klamath county's reduction Is Ma
terial, hut as this project has one Of
tho lowest prices per acre, the differ
tuco elsewhere ls more noticeable. la
The appropriation requested tor the i tho majority of cases, the reclasM-
Klamath project does not provide foritlon cost ls C5 pr acre. Instead, .ef.
tiny now construction work, as none '30, as Is the case here. This smsju
is eouieiupiaiuu uunug iuo cuimus
tlscal year. Instead of making addi
tions to tho acreago irrigated by the
project, It ls tho lnteutlou during the
yuar to get tho local systom Into
shape to comply with tho extension
net in overy particular, such as meas
uring of water, etc.
Of the 317,000 appropriated for
the Klamath project, It is estimated
that close to 170,000 ls to bo used lu
construction of drains and othor
drainage operations. Otherwise, the
money will bo largely used for oper
ation and maintenance of the project
already ertabllnhed.
Throughout the West there has
been a cutting down In the appropri
ations asked tor in comparison with
other years, This ls due to the fact
that since the passage of tho exten
sion act the reclamation service, In-
thai Instead of receiving 6 per sere,
the government ls receiving front 10
to 20 per cent of that amount, ac
cording to how far the work is along
on tho particular project.
It ls for this reason that little pro.
vision lu being made for new wstk
ou auy projoct, construction appr-
prlatlons being mainly for the eetv '
plotlon of work already started 'thet-'
