This is the sort of bunk that the j Washington politicians feed to the people of the east. Who is it that is shoving politics into the reclamation j service, if it is not the officials of that bureau? Just i before the recent election for directors of the Klamath J irrigation district, we were treated to the spectacle of a statement being issued by the reclamation service, on i tiV apparent authority of Commissioner Mead, issued for 1 other purpose than attempting to influence the result of the election. The statement was filler! with lies and misstatements throughout. A year ago the people of the district were handed a report ot an investigation alleged to have been made by two representatives of the reclamation service Dent and Stoutmeyer and this, too, was a concoction of mis statements. Yet, every effort to get the reclamation service to disavow either has been unavailing. Of all the failures that the reclamation service has been afflicted with, the worst are Work and Mead. They have come to the people of the west declaring the best of intentions and holding out offers of assistance. The results have been anything but what they have promised, so far as the Klamath project is concerned. They have sought to club the people into obedience to their demands and when they have refused, they h v. e threatened to withhold appropriations; to deny the relief that the law provides. They must learn that the people ot the west will never submit to such tactic The limit has been reached and unless the reclamation service recognizes the right of the people, there will be waged bitter and unrelenting warfare between the bu reau and the settlers. On the other hand, if the bureau manifests the least fairness, if it will concede to those who are paying the bill the rights to which they are entitled, there will be no difficulty and the claim of the secretary that reclamation is a failure will be proven to be a mistake and the de mand of the . commissioner to keep politics out of the reclamation service will be found to be unnecessary. The trouble with the reclamation service is in Washing ton, not in the west. The Journal's editorial follows1 "Get politics out of reclamation," was the plea of Dr. Elwood Mead, commissioner of reclamation, before the Western Society of Engineers at Chicago. With politics, federal reclamation cannot succeed, he added. Dr. Mead did not name Hubert Work, secretary of the interior, as chief introducer of politics into reclamation at this time. In all loyalty to his superior, Dr. Mead doubtless did not have Work in mind. Yet, outside his reputation of theories which are not his own about the use of business methods in federal ad ministration, Work is the person who chiefly has play ed politics with reclamation. He would have been willing to yield his negative at titude on the Baker project in Oregon had he been shown it was better politics than not to do so. That he perisisted in opposition, that he carried his opposition, to all so-called new projects, was because he thought the economy note would be popular in the east. No one has ever learned from Work that the east contributes nothing toward the cost of reclaiming west em lands by irrigation. He has never given the infor mation that federal projects are financed through sale of Western public lands and the proceeds of oil leases. He has never made clear the fact that, vhile the east consumed its resources, the greater part of the property in the 11 western states the timber, the minerals, the grazing and the public lands! was held in government ownership. He, from, but not of the west, has never tried to awaken anv eastern sympathy in the contest which must be made against time any western state secures benefit of the natural re sources within its borders. Some earnest-minded Oregon citizens feel that Work is to be conciliated as a means of improving the pros-' pect for federal adoption of Oregon projects. An in stance is the Deschutes project, which, in all fairness, -hould be approved by the next congress and given prompt executive action. But Work refused even to look at the Deschutes project during his recent rude-mannered circuit of the west. The theory of business administration of reclamation projects, which is excellent, can be better represented by manv men other than Work. Reclamation as a national policy can go forward far more definitely under a man whose instincts were constructive rather than destructive. I'he Herald Publishing Street. Klamath Kalis. Oregon.
