Sandlake Nav Talk.

Cloverdale - The Cloverdale Tele-
phone company this week completed
ten miles of new telephone line to
Sandlake. The company has also late
" completed it's line to Dolph. This
gives Tillamook City telephone connec-
ton with every voting precinct in the
south part of the county. There is
hardly farm house from Tillamook to
Slab creek that has not telephone con-
nection, and it is hoped next year will
see the system extended to the valley
by wav of Willamina. The system now
embraces over 60 miles of wire.

IRRIGATION MIDDLE.
Oregon and Washington Suffer From
"Too Many Cooks"


Washington, Nov. l5.-"The NAL
heur irrigation project in Eastern Ore
gon is reeking with graft" said high
official of the Interior department to-
day, "and until this graft has been
eliminated the government will not
adopt and build the project which the
Reclamation service has prepared. The
government does not propose to be held
up"
This statement was made by an Off
cial very close to Secretary Hitchcock,
and he, apparently, knows whereof he
speaks, for he but recently returned
from Malheur county, where he made
careful investigation into the entire ir-
rigation situation, and found such con-
ditions as warranted him in recon-
mending against the immediate con-
struction of that project. 1t is his
candid opinion that the time is remote
when the government will undertake
the construction of the Malheur project /;
indeed, he has doubts whether that
project will ever be built by govern
ment aid.
There is no just reason why the
Umatilla project should be delayed one
day. 1t has been demonstrated that
there is money available; the tee nical
objection is trivial and ought to be
waived. The Maxwell company mere
ly asks to retain 800 acres, with water
right, but Mr.. Hitchcock rules that,
under the law, this company can have
but 100 acres, with water right, over
looking the fact that the three members
of the Maxwell company, should they
make entry individually, could each
hold 100 acres. or 4S0 acres in all, with
water rights attached.
The same thing is true of the Sunny
side project in the Yakima valley, in
Washington. The Sunnyside canal
owners are willing to sell out for ST.
500, 900, but they ask to retain more
than 100 acres of the land they now
own, with water right attached, and
the secretary is unwilling to grant them
this privilege. So he holds up that
project, which in the opinion of the re-
clamation engineers is very attractive
and can be acquired to advantage at
this time.
Representative Jones, through his
secretary, today made inquiry as to
why Mr.. Hitchcock refused to approve
the Tietan and Okanogan projects, and
found, as previously stated, that both
were sidetracked "because there is no
money" Nearly year ago Mr.. Hitch
cock allotted $2,800,00 for the con-
structon of the Palouse project, but
the reclamation engineers recommended
indefinite postponement of this under
taking, and it has been temporarily
abandoned because of excessive cost.
1t has been decided to withdraw this
allotment, which contains enough
money to build the Tetan and Okanog-
an projects, and purchase the Sunny
side canal as we'll, yet the department
still cries "no money" There is much
quibbling among officials over the exact
status of irrigation projects in Oregon
and Washington, but the situation is
as represented: There is money enough
in both states for immediate work, but
Mr.. Hitchcock refuses to authorize it's
expenditure.

sons. While this was the last one seen east OF the Mis-
souri, in a wild state yet about that year they must have
been quite numerous west of the river for the ~freighters
on their return trips from the Black Hills would bring
into Pierre hundreds of buffalo hides that were shipped
east. Four or five dollars would buy one Of the hides.
The carcases were brought in occasionally and it was
quite common for the hotels to serve buffalo beef to their
guests.
In the same year that the buffalo was killed north
west a black bear was shot near Wall Lake some Is
miles south of here. There were three or four of these
seen at the time, but they never returned.

Some town hunters played an odd trick on a farmer
WHO early in the season put a sign, mo shooting on these
premises on his land. The farmer watched with pride
the growth of a large covey Of chickens in his wheat
field. One day he decided to invite the town hunters
out to help him bag the covey. They accepted the in
vitation and with the farmer secured the premises to find
not a feather. The hunters kept quiet, except to re-
mark to the farmer that his sign should have read mo
hunting" instead of mo shooting 1t seems that the
hunters had some time before been on the premises and
drove the chickens to the next farm before shooting any.
It seems that this plan is followed by many hunters who.
come upon these mo shooting here signs.

Hand county's display, Just off for the state fair, has
many attractive features. A lot Of potatoes, raised by D.
II Smith and not cultivated nor tended, are eye-openers,
while some Of the corn is ready to pop. The display was
gathered late IN the season to get the best grain straw
displays, but taken all around it is a good showing for
this section of the state.

While there are a good many land seekers dropping
off here and some sales being made at $40 to SIS an acre
for raw land according to location, yet actual settlers are

lands of spectators, or of ranchmen who wish to add
more acres to their farms.
