That would make a revolving fund of

\ large number Of costly irrigation
plants have been put unuer way, but
none has yet returned a dollar to the

the government irrigation plants cost
so much per acre of land to be served
that settlers are shy about assuming
the burden of debt.
As soon as an irrigated homestead
is occupied the debt of the govern
ment begins to run on its entire acre
age. Ii the limit of area is so acres,
the settler has to pay S24O for water
the first year, though he will be doing
well if he put up his buildings fence

using water on 20 acres AT a cost of
$l2 per acre. The terms and condi-

seek settlement on land. Those who
have on hand the amount of capital
required to meet the conditions do
not wish to live on land.
Another objection is that the limit

o. r.. & y. KEEPS ITS WORD.

The o. r. & n. company has prom
lsed Pendleton and Umatilla county
people that a passenger train would
be placed in service between this city
and Walla Walla as soon as it was
demonstrated that such a train would
be self-supporting.
Today the fulfillment Of this prom
ise is announced in the news columns
of the East Oregonian and next We'd
nesday the efforts of the people and
the Commercial association will bear
fruitage when the first train under
the new arrangements will run from
walla Walla to this city.
This fulfillment of promises on part
Of the company proves that it endeav-
ors to answer every just demand upon
It by the people. While Pendleton
and Umatiua county people have
been more or less impatient of the
delay. they must remember that the
local officials are not the ones to de-
eide such matters. Traffic reports
must be sent up through all the de-
partments, and returns must be
audited by the chief officials before
new train service can be installed in
any big railroad system, and consid-
ering everything, it is probable that
this train has come to Umatilla coun-
~ Just as quickly as it was possible
TO pass the request for it through the
various stages through which 1t must
Of necessity pass.
It now remains for Pendleton and
Umatina county to make good with
this train. 1t is announced that this
IS to be an experimental run until
December 81. II business continues
good and the patronage of the train
iustifies. It will be made permanent;
II not. It will be discontinued. so
there you are.

FEDERAL IRRIGATION.

The san Francisco Call, which has
always been favorable to government
irrigation, delivers itself Of an editorial
review Of the subject, which will be
surprising to many friends Of reclaim
alton. It says in its issue of August
II:
The expected seems about to hap
pen. When the federal government
undertook to provide irrigation in the
arid regions, applying thereto the pro-
ceeds Of the sale Of public lands, 1t
was expected by many who had fore
sight that finally the general fund in
the United States treasury would be
resorted to in order to complete the
work that would be undertaken.
The scheme is nearing that point.
1t was intended that the settlers on
the irrigated land should pay back
