Irrigation On John Day.

Carl Wagner, one of the pro-
gressive stockmen of near Spray,
was in town yesterday on bust
ness. Mr.. Wagner stated to the
Enterprise that the dam across the
John Day river above Spray Is
nearing completion, at the pres
ent the force is installing the
head gates on each side OF the
river where the canals will be
taken out. In speaking of the
cost of the dam, Mr.. Wagner
states that 1t will cost from $500
to 5000 more than was anticipated,
reason for this is that the dam
will be IA feet high instead of IL
feet as was first planed. The dam
will be completed by December
1st. The citizers along the river
are anxiouslv awaiting the CON-
pletion of this dam, and should it
prove success numerous other
dams will be built on the North
Fork and Main John Day rivers.
Another year will see the vast
area of fertile land along these
rivers, which now is practically
worthless, producing thousands of
tons of alfalfa. We understand
that William Allen, who is super
intending the building of this
dam, has already received pro-
posals of three other dams on
these rivers. Mr.. Wagner states
that stock are looking fine Mon
ument Enterprise.

MINE WORKERS WRANGLE
A Delegate ViciOusIy Attacks Presi- dent Mitchell.

Indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 19.-In na- tional convention of the United Mine Workers of America today, John Mitchell, the president, was accused by Delegate Robert Randall of Wyoming of having sold out the Colorado strik- ing miners to the operators, of hay ing been traitor to the miners organ ization and of having entered into conspiracy with the mine owners, D.
 M. Parry and Governor Peabody's peace organizations to ruin the Cobra do miners and lose them the strike President Mitchell replying took the floor and gave some of the reasons why the national miners organization had withdrawn it's support from the Col orado strikers.
 Randall had said that President Howells of the district asked for $3OO,- poo for the strike. offering to win or lose it on that amount. MT. Mitchell referring to this said: Let me be plain on this. Howells did not ask for the money. If he had he would not have gotten it. I would not trust him with it. He charged President Wm. H. Howells with irregularities and Ex- National Board Member Gehr with be- ing in collusion with the stock brok- CTS. He told how he forced Gehr to resign his office because of it. Gehr. he said. admitted that he was to get $1000 for advance information con- cerning the close of the strike. He also told of Howells leaving Gehr in charge of the strike for a time last year and said that in two weeks Gehr drew $35,- 900 for the strike.
 "Howells," declared Mitchell, "is not a safe witness against anybody" He ffNId 1nvr to the strikers was appropriated by officers to pay their back salaries.
 Mitchelrs statement showed general ly bad situation. He said after $6OO,- 900 had been poured into the Colorado strike, the spirit shown by the miners of the state was such that he had re- commended a settlement and that na- tional aid be withdrawn and he would do so again under the circumstances. He said he was ready to get out if it was thought best, and referred to the fact that for six years he had not ask ed for reelection.
 Speeches were made by Vice Presi- dents T. T. Lewis, Patrick Dolan of Pittsburg. w. R. Fairley, who was in charge of the strike, and Secretary Treasurer w. B. Wilson. All went to show that the Colorado officers of the miners even wanted per diem wages for remaining out on strike; they re- ceived more money than the anthra- cite strikers got, figured on a per capita basis. and that there was demand enough for the strikers to live on tur- key. It was also stated that the miners even had refused to put up tents sent to them, unless they receiv- | ed pay from the national organization for putting them up.

THAT OFFER OF S5.OOO
DepOsed U. 5. District Attorney Testi-
 fies in Land Fraud Case.

Portland, Ore, Jan. 19.-Explaining that he might want the members as witnesses, United States District At torney Heney today had the federal grand jury listen in the court room to the testimony of John H. Hall, for merly district attorney. in the case of the United States versus George So- renson.
 The case is one in which Sorenson is charged with offering John Fl. Hall S5,OOO to quash indictments against Horace c. Mckinley, S. A D. Puter, Marie l.. Ware, Mrs. Emma L. Wat son, and one other whose name is not known. The first witness for the gov ernment was J. A. SIaden, clerk of the United States circuit court for Ore 'gon.
 F MT. Heney addressed the court and said: of the court please, I asked the grand jury to come in that it might listen to the testimony about to be offered. I may desire to use the mem bers as witnesses before the govern meut rests
 John Hall was then called as a wit ness. After relating the-- -ineidentz of the visit of SOrenson to his office, dur ing which the subject of the land frauds was mentioned. the witness said: "SOrenson said that these fel- lows would give s5.0O0 to have the cases against them dismissed, or that they could raise $50O0 for dismissal of the cases, or something to that eff feet. I replied that I could not en- certain any such proposition and that was all there was to it, as near as I can remember"
 George Sorenson took the witness stand in his own behalf He said: My general instructions, received from MT. Hall, were to keep in touch with the people and report anything they said When I heard about the $5,0O0 scheme I told Hall about it. As near as I can remember. I said to him that l thought he had them people a goin' some and that they thought they could raise $5,0OO to have the cases 
 Upon the questioning of his lawyer, he said that he thought Mckinley had told him about the 5000. He had no intention of offering q bribe to MT. Hall, he declared, and he did not un- dersand that in reporting the matter he was offering a bribe.

the bill goes to conference if the bill is amended in this shape. It is possible that the senate may add some other amendments with a view to receding from them in case opposition to the bill is too strong with Oklahoma and Indian Territory alone included. The eastern senators have from time to time indicated that if the bill as now before the senate providing for two states out of four territories, is amend ed the entire statehood proposition will be defeated.
 This is hardly thought probable. So much has already been said about the attitude of eastern coteries in the sen ate that it would indicate that they were not taking an entirely disinterest- ed view of the statehood question; that it is felt they will not go to the length of opposing statehood for Oklahoma and Indian territory.
