The "efficiency" of government control of the af
fairs Of the Klamath project is indicated by the fact that
the cost has shot up from a promised $18.60 to as high
as $00 for the Tide lake lands. Yet, the reclamation
service wants to keep a controlling hand upon the af
fairs of the district when the operation and maintenance
is turned over to the farmers. There is only one way to
keep the reclamation rats out of the district granary and
that it to elect Short and Jacob.

MAKE A CLEAN SWEEP OF IT
The water users of the Klamath Irrigation district are
urged to go to the polls tomorrow and make a clean
sweep of the influence of the reclamation service, the
California Oregon Power company and the Southern
Pacific in the affairs of the district. During the past!
year the directors who were elected last year have
Wprked earnestly in behalf of the welfare of the project '
and they have made splendid progress. One of the'
handicaps under which they have worked has been the J
representation to the department of the interior that last I
year's election was an accident and that this year con- i
trol of the board would be regained and once more the ! senger a',J ,relKht

voice oi uie reclamation service wouiu oe uie aarecung
power in the affaire of the district. There is no ques
tion about the election of Short and Jacob, but they
want to be placed on the board by such a vote as to
clearly show to the government that there is no accident
about it and that it is the will of the people that this
project is to be operated in the interest of those who
pay the bill and not in that of the California Oregon
Power company or the Southern Pacific company.
By the election of Jacob and Short, the reclamation
service will be shown that this district never will sign a
contract that contains paragraph 3S; that the people
own the water and that thev are eoine- to keen it: that
the surplus water must be paid for by the Calif ornia i grey xe" n, TT" ? J',,

When the campaign was planned by the reclamation
service to secure control of the Klamath Irrigation dis
trict and enable it to turn over to the California Oregon
Power company the water rights of the farmers, it is
tmiinnr illrp-irl to li:ivn hfen m:uli liv ('ommis-
sioner Mead. The purpose of that statement was to
prejudice the farmers against the present board and pre
vent the election of Jacob and Short. But the thing
was so raw that they were forced to deny that any such
statement had been issued and finally to hide themselves
behind the cowardly and threadbare claim that the news
paper had misquoted them. But Uie people know, and
the reclamation service will get its answer tomorrow by
ihe overwhelming election of Jacob and Short.

people been so nearly unanimous in their determination
to gain their rights. They seem to, sense that at least
they are going to secure justice and that the reign of
the California Oregon Power company in the affairs
of the district is at an end. For nearly twenty years the
district has been plundered by a gang of taxeating car
petbaggers, whose only interest seemed to have been the
maintenance of the bureaucratic traditions of the re
clamation service, the punishment of those who dared to
oppose their vicious practices and an absolute disre
gard as to the amount of expense they piled upon the
backs of the farmers.
This year the permanent change will come. The peo
ple's representatives will be in control. The wild extrav
agances will be stopped. The free distribution of the
assets of the district to the California Oregon Power
company will be stayed. Control of the district will pass
to the farmers without the departmental strings that the
reclamation , service want to attach to it. The people
will rule and they will control their own affairs in their
own interest.

LETTERS FROM
THE PEOPLE
The Klamath News, that journalistic Judas, must bear
the brand of Ananias for all time through its failure to
come forward and prove its charge that any part of the
Evening Herald was owned by Charles Wood Eberlein,
or anyone else. We would, indeed, be glad to have
associated with us a gentleman of Mr. Eberlein's ability
and integrity. But that is not the point at issue. The
Klamath News deliberately lied and repeated the un
truth even after our offer to pay $5000 to any Klamath
county charity. Not only did it misrepresent the facts in
this instance, but did so throughout the campaign, and
yet it asks the people of the district to believe that it is
working in their interest. We know M ho is pulling the
"wires." And it is not the farmers of the Klamath Ir
rigation district.
A recent advertisement of the California
Power company, (not printed in this naner. however)
is headed: "Why does a public utility need money?"
Our answer, based on a survey of local conditions, would
be as follows: "To run a newspaper."
REACHES HALF WAY HARK
The Community Chest drive reach
ed the half-wary mark with the re
ports made last night, while there is
still considerable money due from
other committees. W. 0. dinger's
committee, which has many of the
leading business of Cass street to
solicit, has not yet made its report
and when that money comes in, it
is expected that the total receipts
will be near the $6,000 mark.
Archie Crawford's team at last
night's rCport was leading with sub
scription of J 1,723. V. T. Jackson';:
workers were second with $1,690. SO
O. C. Baker's squad has completed
only about one-half Its vanvas,
owing to the fact that -Mr. Bakor
was out of town when the drive
3tarted. Its first day's work netted
$7.r,9.8.",, bringing the total receipts
up to $4,173.80.
W. O. Clinger'3 team is sard at
wcrk today and will make its re
port tonight.
The bag ends of the drive in
the business districts arc now be
ing drawn in. It is the aim of
the iworkors to complete the can
vass in the business section before
entering the residential districts.
I Indications' are that the start of
the last lap of the drive will find

Klamath Falls, Ore., Nov. I. 1925.
Mr. E. J. Murray, Publisher, Eve
ning Herald.
Dear Mr. Murray:
In your editorial of this date you
make the statement; "This will be
the first year In which Hie tax roll
of tho district was prepared In the
district office, the work heretofore
having been done by the reclamation
service."
Evidently you have been mla-ln-
formod for the fnct Is that tho tax
roll has always been prepared In the
district office, and nover In the of
fice of the reclamation service. As
I personally prepared all rolls for the
seven years since the formation of
the district, may I take tho liberty
of requesting that you correct this
statement.
Sincerely yours,
A. I,. WIsliARD.
One of the provisions that the reclamation service
wants to insert in the O. & M. contract, makes it obliga
tory for the district to employ as manager of the pro
ject, a man who has had at least three years' experience
in charge of reclamation works, and he must" be ap
proved by the secretary of the interior. In other words,
the control of the project by the farmers would be a
myth. The only control the government should have
would be exercised when the district failed to pay any
installment. When the government is paid in full, its
yoice in the affairs of the district must cease entirely.
TO THE WATER If BURS OF THE
KLAMATH IHIUGATION DISTRICT
There has appeared In print a
statement from Mr. A. L. Wlshard
to the effect that ho Is not a can
didate for the office of secretary of
the Klamath Irrigation district. I
understand Mr. Wlshard is now in
the real cstato business In which he
Is meeting with commendable suc
cess. In view of this and my firm
belief thnt Mr. Wlshard will prefer
to remain where he is so successful,
I will not, if elected to the board of
directors of the Klamath Irrigation
district, consider Mr. - Wlshard for
the office of secretary and 1 wish
this statement to be accepted, not ns
a reflection for Mr.' Wlshurd, for
whom I have a high regard, but as
comini: through my belief In the sin
cerity of his stntement that he will
not accept tho office.
