They are the old timers who died (Bnyk came here in their youth, or the children of those who came still earlier, and homesteaded a fence less frontier. It was a titanic lonely gamble for most a lifetime gamble in a vast rolling land, where drouth sometimes starved their stock in summer and the bitter cold froze their herds in winter. It was a long battle for enough water and the right kind of weather. The land broke many of the early comers, but many stayed and broke the land. Once a year these pioneers gather in reunion here and talk about old times. They call them selves range riders, because that Is what they were. And If you refer to them as cowboys, they will dryly point out that a cow boy is a critter that inhabits Hollywood. They are a wonderful people, marked by a great calm and dig nlty. n Their hardwon victory shows In their sun-crinkled countenances, and the far reach In their eyes. The earth and sky of endless Mon tana has been stamped by time in their faces. Among those nt the reunion of the range riders this year was Mrs. Susan Hnughlan, about whom I have written before. Mrs. Haugh lan came hero as a sprightly lass from Ireland. Now In her 65th year, she has ten children and 24 grandchildren and she is as sprightly ever. i Today she and her family own or lease more than 100,000 acres, but there were times when she and the kids weren't even sure of tlulr groceries. Susan has had a rugged lite, full of many troubles, 'But I wouldn't change one mo ment of my life If I could," she said stoutly. Courage has been her armor all the way, and it still is. She is a keen and active busi nesswoman, and wants to keep ranching as long ns the Lord will allow her, "I'm not going to be a baby BILL JENKINS Managing Editor JENKINS out of some poor bewildered hill kangaroo in the meantime.

What actually happened was, on a scientific junket for the purpose of investigating the lore and the cooking of porcupines, we finally tangled with one of the brutes with the Tesult that Erethizon gnawed on our most prominent feature. That, of course, brings up the final remark that always is di rected to you: "Ail right. All right. Now tell us what REALLY happened." Well that's our story, and we're stuck with it. And that brings up another method for the treatment of porcu-pine-quills-in-dogs. When Fido shows up with his muzzle looking like a pincushion simply get a pair of snippers and out all the quills in two. That let's the air out of them and they'll soon shake off. This was learned in a telephone call from Mrs. Nichols. She said that it's s bit of Indian lore that she learned from the Locoes, who successfully treated their dogs in this manner. This method has since been eon firmed (and denied) by various porcupine experts. We can't vouch for it on personal experience. sitter for 24 grandchildren," she said, laughing. Susan's success story is matched by Leo Cremer, who is one ol America's leading rodeo entre preneurs as well as one of the state's biggest ranchers. "Mr. Rodeo" came here from Wisconsin in 1911 at the age of 20 with his young bride. He home steaded 320 water-short acres. Like Susan and many other determined settlers, Cremer, when faced with the choice of buying better gro ceries or more acres, chose to gamble on acres. Ciemer now has 82,000 acres of deeded land and 18,000 acres under lease more than 160 square miles. He is a big, graying man with a gusty laugh, who thinks any day Is wasted if he doesn't spend at least part of It on horseback. As a state senator one of Crem- er's first proposals was to solve America's political troubles by moving the national caoital from Washington, D. C, to Montana. His tongue-in-cheek suggestion met a rather cool reception out here. We're against it." one rancher said. "AU those politicians would Just stir up the cattle.

SA7 K. tula They'll Do It Every Ictuses of -mosc cuunARy artists IOOK SO VERy SIMPLE TO WATER VSE Board of Directors, Klamath County Chamber of Commerce. Klamath Falls, Oregon. Gentlemen: This letter is written you on the assumption thnt the article in the June 26, 1962 Herald and News en titled Farm Water Use Endorsed C of C Takes Position on Copco Plans is substantially correct. The nrecedine Friday evening the Chamber called a meeting of members on a Build the Basin Pro ject, one purpose being to enlist the support, financial and other wise, ol more residents of this community. How the Chamber can expect to hold present water users in its membership, let alone secure new ones, is too deep for me. Although the applications of Cop co to the State and to the Federal Power Commission have been pend ing for over a year this action is taken just four days prior to date of the Commission's hearing. It is, of course, too late for referendum ommendations of the Chamber Somtlme before the hearing con ducted by the State Hydroelectric Commlssoln over a year ago the question came before the Directors as to whether they should take ac tion in the matter. At the sugges tion of a director, I think it was Russ Tisdale, it was agreed that the matter was too controversial and that it should be referred to the Klamath River Watershed De velopment Association for study. The Chamber took no action at the suae hearing. , According to the paper the rec ommendation of the Chamber were: 1. It is agreed that agriculture in the Upper Klamath Basin shall have prior use of all water originat ing inerem. 2. All remaining' waters, includ ing return flow, shall be permitted to continue to their original and historical channels. 3. Private enterprise should be encouraged to develop the full power potential of the Klamath River. 4. ... If the California Oregon Power Company will so modify its application now pending before the Federal Power Commission and the State Hydroelectric Commis sion as to be consistent without (undoubtedly a misprint for "with") above enunciated prin ciples of policy, such modified ap plication be approved. 51 Specifically, we recommend that any application granted this or any other power company be required to comply with out Prin ciple No. 1: "That agriculture in the Upper Klamath Basin shall have prior use of all waters origin ating therein." Superficially, nothing could be sweeter than the foregoing. The mere fact that Butte Valley and the Dorris country are written oil is probably regarded as of no Im portance. Return flow from Butte Valley would enter the Klamath River below the projected Cop co plant. You have overlooked or disre garded what I consider the most important point. A large proportion of irrigation in this community is by means of pumping, which re quires power. Even In the Klamath Irrigation District, which Is regard ed as a "gravity" rather than a "pumping'' district, pumping Is re quired in the Miller Hill, Adams Point and Melhase-Ryar. sump areas. Water for all other irriga tion districts, Enterprise, Malln, Pine Grove, Sunnyslde. Shasta View, Horsefly and Langell Valley Is obtained by pumping. In the year 1917 a contract was entered into between Copco and the United States under which the Link River Dam was constructed by Copco for the United States in consideration of which Copco was given the right to regulate the wa ters of the lake between the levels of 4137 and 4134.3 feet for a period of fifty years at Its expense, at the termination of which period posses sion reverts to the United States as owner. Under the terms of this contract Copco Is obligated to fur nish power for pumping purposes at a rate not In excess of seven mills per kilowatt-hour. Iri another fifteen years, although the water users will be compelled to operate this dam for Conco, the latter will be under no obligation to furnish power at a favorame rate, water users have always been told that at the end of this period they will materally benefit through the own ership and operation of this dam. On the contrary, however, the ap propriation of the water sought by Copco will result In the water users at the end of the term being com pelled to maintain the dam for it at their expense and without re muneration, in effect this will be giving Copco property with a vnl- People DO TOO read small space ads - you ore! J nil vrn r x v fr Time . PREPARE - I ue In excess of (3.000.000 and then being compelled to operate sum The new dam planned by Copco is not a storage dam: it Is merely a holding dam to prmit constant use of the plant. The Link River Dam Is absolutely essential to Copco's planned development. A large number of water users on this Project favor private, as distinguished from Federal, devel opment of power. They feel, how ever, that the benefit of the value of the Link River Dam should Inure, to some extent, to their ben efit. If the Link River dam has been worth over 13.000.000 to Copco for a fifty year use. It should be worth not less than that over the following fifty year period. In short. It is believed that a majority of the water users would favor a program such as the following: 1. At this tl'.ne and prior to the granting of any further rights to Copco (if it is given these rights now It will not longer be interest ed) the contract between the Unit ed States and Copco be extended according to all of its original terrmwEXCEPT as to charge for power for Irrigation purposes. 2. Charge for power for such pumping should be reduced in a sum at least equal to the prevail ing interest rate on the 3,000,000 of value. The foregoing is a simple plan and is easily understood. It would even have the support of many farmers who at present favor Fed eral , development of power. As stated above, If Copco is given the rights it now seeks It will not be Interested in an extension of the present contract, except on its own terms. What these terms will be no one knows. As the matter now stands, how ever, the writer suggests that one additional recommendation be made bv you: (6) That present water users sell their farms at prevailing high prices and invest the proceeds of sale in common stock of The Cali fornia Oregon Power Company. Even with higher power rates there will always be some farmers who, by growing specialized crops, will make a living with substantial ly Increased power rates. This in come, together with dividends on Copco stock, should insure a de gree of prosperity in this country after 1967. I have taken the liberty of writ ing this letter to you in view of my thirty year membership, over a quarter of which has been spent as a member of the board of di rectors. The views expressed are my own and not those of clients. The views of some of these as given following reading last night's paper would not look good in print. Very truly yours, William Ganong. Co. Calif. Has Rainest Time SAN FRANCISCO W Northern California Monday wound up Its second rainiest season in 62 years. In most areas there was more rain since last July 1 than in any season since that of the fabulous 1889-90 period. San Francisco's season total was 32.66 inches. Normal is 22.10. In 1889-90 the city had 45.85 Inches. In 1940-41 there was 35.05 Inches. Los Angeles had 26.21 Inches for the season. Normal Is 15.30. Eureka, In California's upper Northwest, gets lots of rain as a general thing but this year the total was 47.42, whereas the aver age Is 39.95.

For instance. Sen. Robert Taft and Gen. Dwlgjht Elsenhower In one debate and some of the vould be Democratic candidates In an other. Then, after the Democratic and Republican conventions In Chicago each pick a candidate, those two winners could debate on TV. Not Just once. As often as necessary. And none of the TV debates, be fore or after the conventions, would have to be 30-mlnute quick ies. Instead, full dress debates, even If they took hours. This wouldn't be asking too much of the men or the networks. If all the TV time already used by the candidates Individually was laid end to end It would amount to many hours anyway. There's nothing new In the de-bate-between-candldntes idea. It's at least 94 years old. Lincoln and Douglas debated before big crowds in Illinois when they ran lor the Senate In 1856. But presidential candidates never took to the idea very well, perhaps because It was always more com- portable, politically and personally. not to. It's fairly pleasant to be able to make a speech all by yourself, or Issue a statement or even attack the other guy when he's not around to examine your mind. When he fires a shot from 600 miles away, you can always delay a reply until you get advice. But there wouldn't be any time for ducking, weaving or weasel wording In a face-to-face encoun ter before a crowd. You couldn't get by with pleasant promises of what you'd do In the White House. The other guy could also ask you how. In the days before radio and TV in a country as big as this If the presidential candidates wanted the people everywhere to hear and see them arguing together, they would have had to tour around like a vaudeville team. There never was any reason, of course, why they couldn't have debates a few limes in Just one place. The newspapers would have covered every word for the people who couldn't be there. There was still less excuse for the candidates not debating once radio had networked the country, enabling every one to hear them at the same time, no matter where they met. Gov. Thomas Dewey and Harold Stassen had a radio debate in Portland til 1948 when both were looking for the Republican nomina tion. After that, Stassen's star be gan to fade and Dewey went on to be the candidate. Since radio can't transmit a cam. paign smile Into a living room, some politicians may have con sidered It a disadvantage, particu larly if, being invisible, they Just sound nasal or noisy. But now that TV stretches across moat of the country, the presiden tial hopefuls have lost their last excuse except one for not meet ing face to face where everyone can see and hear and judge them. The one excuse: There Is still politics. And if a would-be presi dent thinks he can do better for himself by not risking a publio meeting with the other guy, he won't risk It.

Joe and his sister, Lucille, were wading In Bchooler Lake, 18 miles northeast of here, and stepped into deep water.

But the contests Involving district delegates In two other key southern states, Louisiana and Georgia, were sent back for handling by their respective state party committees.
