ANOTHER MILLION REQUIRED.

In conversation with friend of ours
recently, Lieutenant Burr stated that
two appropriations as large as the pres
ent one would be required to complete
the work on the Cascade locks, and that
he had Just completed estimates for the
work. When the present appropriation
was received it was stated by those in
charge of the work that one more appro-
priation would 10 the work, but now
after the lapse of few months, the es-
Inmates are doubled. Were this the
first time this thing had been done it
would not create much surprise, but the
fact is that this has been the cry with
every appropriation until it has too
decided flavor of chestnuts, and horse
chestnuts at that. We are all tired OF
this Fabian system, and hopeless OF see
ing the work completed until it is taken
from the war department and finished

yearly repitition of bad management, or
lack of any, incompetency and failure OF
any permanent results. With the pres
ent appropriation million and half
dollars will have been expended, on
work that was at first estimated to cost
:, million dollars, and million more is
said to be required.

FOR A NEW Law.

A memorial to be presented to the
next state legislature is being circulated
in this city and generally signed, asking
that state law be passed to provide for
the irrigation of arid lands in Oregon.
The following is the substance of the
petition:
To the Sixteenth Biennial Session of tke
Legislative assembly Of the State Of
Oregon:
We, the undersigned, settlers and tax
payers of Crook county, Oregon, most
respectfully petition your honorable
body, for the enactment of an act
creating or granting power to estab-
lish irrigation districts with power
to construct, own and maintain irriga-
ton canals and bitches, to sue and be
sued, to collect toll or tax for creating,
operating and maintaining said canals or
bitches, to borrow money or bond the
districts for the necessary means of con-
be deemed necessary for the practical
operation of said canals or bitches by
said districts. Whereas the enactment
of such an act would be of immeasurable
benefit to the settlers of Eastern Oregon,
therefore, the undersigned earnestly
pray that their petition be granted
The object of this memorial is for the
passage of law similar to that now in
force in California, whereby the state is
to be divided into irrigation districts, and
the districts themselves shall own and
operate the canals or bitches. All the
taxable property within an irrigating
district shall be subject to assessment
and taxation for the purpose of construct
ing operation and maintaining the canals
or bitches in that district. Should the
intent of such law be fulfilled, hundreds
of thousands of acres of land in Eastern
Oregon that would be fertile and pro-
ductive if only irrigated, would be
settled upon and cultivated by settlers,
whose means are insufficient to construct
irrigating canals.
The benefit of such law, especially to
Eastern Oregon, cannot fail to be seen.
Let the people of Crook county unite in
supporting movement that win increase
the wealth of their county ten-fold.
Every settler that comes into Crook
county increases the value of your farm
The Improvements your nsighbor makes,
increases the value of your property
proportionately. y.-PrineviIle Ne,Ds'

you MAY RUE IT.

If to some jockey you're inclined,
And wish to see him through it;
Don't get too brash or ''go it blind,
Just put your wad up sin your mind,
Or later you may rue it.
If you shonld find two lips to kiss,
And want so much to do it,
Don't let the thought of present bliss
Betray you into aught amiss,
For later you may rue it.
You hold one ace. To your amaze
You draw two others to it,
The other fellow stays and stays:
Look out Be careful how you raise,
For later you may rue it.
If you should fall in love quite deep,
And only wish she knew it,
Just bear in mind, though talk is cheap
Sometimes it costs a man heap,
And later you may rue it.

The Fight the Result of Paternal Love on
the Part of the Chicken.
Mrs. Elisa beth Ferril, East Bradford
owns q common hen which is raising a
lot of young ducks. These follow her
constantly, and over them she exercises
a careful watch. The other day two of
the little oues ran to their foster-Rotherr
and, in their own way, communicated
the fact that they had been stung by
something. The old hen listened atten-
tivaly, no doubt, to their story, and after
inquiring into all the facts of the case I'm
ally decided to locate the cause. She
went about very much after the style of
Pinkerton detective, and finally espied
long snake, with an unusually. fiat and
broad head, wrapped around post. The
hen crouched and watched. Presently
the snake left his "post of duty and en-
tering the long grass wiggled towards the
ducks Instantly the hen was upon him
and battle ensned. Mrs. Ferrell ran
out with pitcher of hot water. By thfs
time cessation of hostilities had taken
place, the chicken standing off little
ways and the snake having again wrapped
himself around the post. The reptile
eyes were red ane there was evidence OF
blood having been spilled. Mrs. Ferrell
dashed the hot water upon his snake
ship, and instantly the reptile leaped
four feet in the air with a terrific shrek.
When he came down Mrs. Ferrell killed
him with shovel. The snake was of a
kind that is rarely seen in that part OF
| the country

THE IRISH QUESTION.

Home rule for Ireland is liable 10 be
dropped from the platform of both GO. p's.
unless Irishmen can show that they can
govern themselves. That sound rolling
sentence that has done duty so long will
be sadly missed, but looks as though it
would have to go. The Celtic blood
undiluted, is hot, and the Celtic dispo-
sition frey and passionate. Parnell
from being idolized one day is dethroned
and despised the next by fally enc half
bis followers, and these in turn are
fighting among themselves. Until Irish
men learn to control their tsmpers, and
to govern themselves, "Homs rule for
Ireland" will cease to have attractions
for as foreigners, and worse than all,
will cease to yield that abundant har-
vest OF coin in America, SO necessary
heretofore to keep the matter alive in
Ireland.

THE POLITICAL HORIZON.

The Farmers Alliance has developed
such unexpected strength in the past
year that it has made itself decided
thorn in the flesh for both old political
parties, source of continual irritation.
That it will put presidential candidate
in the field in '92 is certain, and while
there is little chance of his being elected,
he will cut into the electoral vote in sew
eral of the states, and thus may have,
probably will have the balance OF power.
Neither party can afford to lose single
state, yet it is very probable that both
will lose at least one. The political out
look just now is that the election OF
president will be thrown into the house
of congress, and that would mean dem
ocratic successor to Harrison, the pres
ent congress holding until after the cleo

WHATEVER else our next legislature
may do, new assessment law must be
passed, The burden of taxation is en-
deavored to be made equal, but under
the existing laws this cannot be accom-
plished. The amount of taxes to be
paid is measured. of course, by our ex-
penses, and with the affairs of the coun-
try economically administered no one
should grumble at paying his proper
share; but the lodging of one causes a
general effort to keep the assessor from
hitting teo hard, and the result is far
from satisfactory. A new law is impera-
tive and the legislature will have done
well indeed, if it provides system that
will divide the burden equally.

those in the wrong, and it is safe cri-

used against Parnell, it is pretty certain
that the cause itself is weak, and will,
