t soenro the otrliisliiu of oevnral
IbouMiid ucrcm of rrclntnutlon tmiU
from federal bind rencrvas In Klamath
county. He has placed before the de
partments the contention that those
bird retime cannot bt uphold on
such laud under tin- rcxt'rvatloiu
made by the state lu ceding llio land
to tho federal government.
Ill pofltlou Is thai tho statu rrded
I ho lauds for the purport or icclama
tlon, and that thuy raiiuot bo dealt
with eicrpt In accordance with Ihn
reclamation law. This phao of tho
matter apparently had csrupi'd notice
ot tho federal authorities, and an In
quiry la under way as to the authority
for placing ch lands within the bird
reserve.
Thlit applies to the Immense acreage
of laiidn In the Ixiwer Klamath take
dlrtrlct, now a nwamp, und which
local parties ore. endeavoring lo have
luken out of the ganto retime. In or
der that It may bo drained and cultivated.
The government reclamation ser
vice has Infratlguted tho drainage of
UiIh land lo some, extent, but Hip pise-
lug of tho land In a resort o by Presi
dent Hoosovult forentsllud work being
done.
It Is believed now that by stopping
tho connecting canal between the
Klamath Klvcr und tho lake u large
part ot tho lako and awamp will be
drained through tho shutting off or
tho water supply and by evaporation.

"Three years ugo a charge ot but
T cents an aere wan made, but the

In 1915 it was raised to 11.15, with
