Old Council Meets Meanwhile, the Smith adminis tration city council met last eve ning in the city auditorium and con sidered local improvement district THE WATER USERS' CONTRACT The directors of the Klamath Irrigation district are to be; congratulated f or having rejected the contract govern ing, the turning over to the farmers the' control of the Klatnath Project. If it had been accepted, the land owners, would have found themselves in a worse predi cament than they now occupy, as it is filled with more creaked jokers than any of the former contracts the people have been fooled into accepting. . . ' JUndei the .proposed; contract,. the farmers would sur render all right to surplus water, to their power rights anijt power sites and would confirm the theft of their property which was turned over by the Reclamation Ser vice to the Oregon-California Power company. The lat- ; ter concern would secure ownership of the surplus water Without having tO pay One Cent tO thOSe Whom it Was'p'nps and other general affairs of stolen and the farmers would be forever prevented trom taking the matter into court for adjudication. At an early date you will hear that unless the farmers take over the operation and maintenance of the project, there can be no. extension of payments and no morat-. orium.will be granted. But this . sort of talk need excite no fear. For orice the people are represented on the board of "directors by men who are not serving the Re clamation Service or private interests they are protect ing the rights of the landowners and will doubtless con tinue to do so.. They never will accept for submission to the f armers a contract that is not fair and it is fortunate for them; and for the entire county, that such men have been placed in so important a position of trust and that they are so honestly administering it .

A similar campaign, Instituted here last summer, resulted In the securing of 7,000 signatures. The Stop Forest Fires Association, beginning here, has spread to prac tically all of tbe western states In which there are large stands of timber. tbe city. At what is said to have been tbe largest gathering ever seen in the city park, Todd spoke for an hour last night on issues of the past and present in. city and county affairs, and. dwelt at some length on the supposed murder last Friday nigbt of Thomas Dovery. publisher ot the Cowlitz County News and Todd sup porter. , In.: his talk, which he called "He was my friend," Todd said: ' ... ' ' . . . - . .., ' Was Too Fearless "Thomas Dovery was ono of the least selfish, men I, have known. Fearless in carrying forward what be considered the cause of he com mon people, he never, attempted to conceal facts from friend or enemy, whether or not his presentation of the facts caused men of great power to back. his newspaper. From his pen dripped the - spirit of the crusader editor." Cowlitz county commissioners have authorized the expenditure of $5000 for the Investigation of the Dovery death. Of this sum J3000 is to be paid tp Luke S..May, Seat tle criminologist, retained by the county to trace, the supposed mur derer. The commissioners said they .would appropriate another 15000 If it is needed. . Before leaving for Seattle on Tuesday May , repeated that no tangible plew to the death mystery had been found. Of first importance in the investigation, he said, is thol determination of whether or not the gun and the bullet found near the1 death scene . are tho ones used in Dovery's slaying. lion, admitted no .outsiders and maintained a kilty in which chips were deposited by the winner of euch hand. This was lu tho pro Volstead days and tho kitty was used for the provision ot .liquid nourishment. Members of the club soon found that the kitty got ull tho money, and that If tho club were to continue It would be neces sary to bring In new members. "So it la with the modern com munity. New blood must bo bj-oiiisht In. else there will bo stag nation and tho members of tho community will find themselves much worse ort than If competition were encouraged and newcomers In vited." . Mr. Lees spolio of the work now being done by tho V. S. chamber and brought out the fuct that it did in a national way what local or ganizations did In their own com munities.
