INDEPENDENT TAXPAYERS' MOVEMENT.
There is to be held at Woodburn today an independent taxpay
ers' convention to put up a county ticket.
Undoubtedly the people have a right to do this, and should do
it to protect themselves from graft.
Marion county has stood for high ideals in public affairs, and
still taxes have gone up abominably.
But it should be remembered the last legislature was run by
a Portland man in the senate and a Wallowa man in the house.
The Portland crowd of reformers named the Wallowa man
speaker, and they dictated and controlled his administration of
affairs.
The Marion county delegation had nothing to say in either de
partment of the state legislature, and the governor was a Demo
crat. ,
t There are undoubtedly a few men on the Republican legisla
tive and county ticket who could be improved on and possibly be
defeated.
With one weak man on each ticket, legislative and county,
there is room for a scrap, and it is worth while to try to get bet
ter men.
The state of Oregon is loaded with a choice lot of commis
sions that could be weeded out to advantage to the taxpayer.
The Capital Journal will point out some of these matters in
course of the campaign, and hopes something can be done.
o
SUMMARY OF SENATOR BOURNE'S PARCEL POST BILL
Postal rates on parcels vary with distance, thus protecting lo
cal merchants and competing wih express companies :
Third and fourth classes of matter are combined.
A special rate of one cent an ounce up to four ounces is pro
vided for circulars and small packages of goods.
Rates are as follows :
Local, city and rural deliveryonly, 5 cents for the first pound
and one cent for each additional pound.
Within 50-mile zone, 6 cents for first pound and 2 cents for
each additional pound.
Within 200-mile zone, 7 cents for first pound and 3 cents for
each additional pound.
Within 600-mile zone, 8 cents for the first pound and 4 cents
for each additional pound.
Within 1000-mile zone, 11 cents for the first pound and 7 c?nts
for each additional pound.
Within 2000-mile zone, 12 cents for the first pound and 10
cents for each additional pound.
Outside 2000-mile zone 12 cents for the first pound and 12
cents for each additional pound.
These rates are based upon a careful computation of the act ml
cost of collecting, distributing and delivering packages, plus ac
tual cost of transportaationn.
Weight limit 11 pounds, and maximum charge 12 cents the
international limit and rate.
UNBECOMING JUDICIAL CONDUCT.
There are several displays of unbecoming conduct on the part
of judges cropping out in Oregon from time to time.
Tn Portland judgfs have a habit of makin? i iowns of them
selves by prefcidiny at some mock trial held by lodges.
While this is apparently harmless, it has a tendency to lower
the courts in public respect, and make a farce of justice.
In another part of the state a judge has been known, after a
trial, to go with one of the plaintiffs and hear more testimonny.
On top of this the custom of taking entertainment at the
homes of parties to a suit or counsel is a growing evil.
It was a rule of Ben Butler's life not to be left alone anywhere
with a woman, not even in the hallway of a hotel.
That was his rule as a public official, and it is just as true
in principle in the conduct of judges.
A judge should be free to meet all kinds of people in his open,
public court room or at public gatherings.
But accepting hospitality or traveling about privately with lit
igants is a dangerous custom.
DESCHUTES RIVER ONE OF
MOST WONDERFUL If WORLD
That there Is Bonie truth In the
statement that tho Deschutes river Is
the most wonderful stream in the
world, la the opinion of State Engi
neer Lewis upon his return from a
10 days' trip covering its entire
drainage basin.
"Iluilding is Active In nioHt of the
Crook county towns, and many acres
are being cleared and put in crop for
the first time,'' said Engineer Town."
"Perhaps tho greatest area being
cleared is along Squaw Creek, near
Bisters, as a result of the recent ad
judication of water rights by tho
board of control. Those having ln
ccmpleto rights must put the water
to UBe this fall or It will revert to
the new approprlators who are eag
erly awaiting the chance of using
auch water. The recent rain has
given to the dry farming sections a
prosperous look, and the building of
the North Canal diversion of con
crete and steel Insures the irrigated
section near Bend a reliable water
supply.
"This present development is noth
ing when compared with the possi
bilities for future development.
"The Deschutes river at Benham
Falls, has a mean annual discharge
of 1,220,000 acre- feet of water, as
shown by eight years records. The
minimum year furnished 1,070,000
acre feet, so that It Is safe to say
that there is available at this point
for Irrigation purpose, one million
acre feet of water. This will Irrigate
333,000 acres of land or a strip one
mile wide, and 620 miles long,
"The regular flow will ultimately
HAPPY TIIO MARRIED?
There are unhappy married lives, hut a targe percentage ol these unhappy
homes are due to the illness ol the wife, mother or daughter. The feelings ol
nervousness, the befogged mind, the ill-temper, the pale end wrinkled laoe, hollow
and circled eyea, result most oiten from those disorders peculiar to women. For
tlie woman to be happy and good-looking ihe must naturally have food health.
UraggMig-down feelings, hysteria, hot-flashes or constantly returning pains and
aches are too great a drain upon a woman's vitality and strength. Dr. Pierce's
favorite Prescription restores weak and sick women to sound health by regu
luting and correcting the local disorders which are generally responsible for the
above distressing symptoms.

Irrigate about 120,000 acres between
Bend and the Crooked River. Every
drop of the remaining water can and
should be stored for irrigation pur
poses through the construction of a
60-foot dam at Benham Falls. This
could be released In the summer and
diverted near Cline Falls for the Ir
rigation of 110,000 acres on Agency
Plain, for the irrigation of 60,000
acres In the Crooked River bottom
near Prlnevllle, and by diverting
above Bend, Irrigating 50,000 acres in
the Benham Falls segregation just
south of Prtneville. Except for an
Inverted siphon across Crooked Riv
er Canyon, there are no great engi
neering difficulties to be overcome,
and It appears that this is one of
the cheapest projects in the state to
construct
"The entire flow at the head of the
river can be used for the Irrigation
of about 60,000 acres of land above
the Benham Falls reservoir without
affecting these figures as the seepage
will all be collected in the reservoir
below.
"Between Benham Falls, and Cline
Falls, there Is 1300 feet fall. About
60 per cent of the one million acre
feet of water will be discharged
through the dam for Irrigation pur
poses during July and August, and
will be available for the development
of power which can be transmitted
economically two to four hundred
miles for the pumping of water to
irrigate other lands say along the
Columbia river. This water at a 100
foot drop Immediately below the dam
will furnish 66,800 horsepower, which
at 50 per cent plant efficiency, will
lift 2500 second feet, 100 feet above
the Columbia river, for the irrigation
of 200,000 acres of land. There Is
another fall of 100 feet a short dis
tance below and above the first di
version for Irrigation, and the
amount of summer power which can
be developed in the 1300 feet fall to
the last diversion at Cline Falls Is
almost inconceivable.
"The farmers between Squaw
Creek and the Metollus river have a
surveying party in the field locating
a seven mile canal from the head of
Metollus river, and it Is expected that
a one-half mile tunnel will pierce the
ridge and permit the irrigation of
30,000 to 50,000 acres In this section.
This canal, constructed for irriga
tion purposes, would make available
about 25,000 horse power which ' can
be developed during the winter
months only, but which If used in
conjunction with the summer power
on the Deschutes, would make a val
uable and cheap perennial power.
"For the greatest good to the
greatest number, the Deschutes riv
er between Cline Falls and tho Junc
tion with Crooked river, should be
dried up, except for seepage water.
Below this point, the river is of most
value for power, and tho total possible
diversions for irrigation without con
sidering return seepage, would not
materially affect Its value for this
purpose, but with return seepage may
Improve the power value of the lower
river.
"Sixteen dam sites have been located
in the narrow rock-walled canyon
from the Columbia river to Just below
the Junction of the Metollus with the
Deschutes river. With 4000 second
feet at the 1300 feet of fall which can
bo developed at these sites, 600,000
theoretical horse power can be gener
ated. With the low and high year
flow equalized at the Benham Falls
erservolr and with a 120-foot dam In
the Crooked river about 40 miles from
Prlnevllle, this low water flow can be
increased to about 6000 second-feet,
and tho power to nearly 900,000 horse
power. This Is about six times the
present Installed steam and hydro
electric machine capacity In the vicin
ity of Portland, and about 40 times the
low water power development at Ore
gon City. Besides this, an enormous
quantity of power can be developed on
the Metollus river, and at other points.
"These possibilities could be greatly
Complicated by development at the
wrong time and place, and if carried
out under our present wasteful sys
tem of competition, the expense to the
public will be greatly Increased
through lack of harmony between
plants. After a number of dams have
been constructed for power develop
ment, the most economical develop
ment of additional power would be by
Increased flow through storage
The above information, though pre
liminary,' has been gathored by the
state, and the U. S. Geological Survey,
acting In co-operation. A complete
report will be available early next
year. This stream affords a striking
example, where to secure the highest,
most logical and orderly development,
the entire stream should be turned
over to one corporation subject to reg
ulation, or else developed by the pub
lic as tha need arises. To promote the
immediate and best use of this stream
Is one of the problems which should
receive careful consideration at the
hands of the state legislature."
