SETTLERS FOR
WATERED TRACTS
MOVEMENT TO ADVERTISE
GOVERNMENT PROJECTS.
Pcrfccting and Carrying Out Plan
q Would Aring Hundreds of Home
seekers To Hcrmiston and Vicinity
Editor of Irrigation Age Advocates
Plan While an Visit TO the West.

A movement which will mean hum
dreds OF settlers in the Hermiston ir-
rigation district In the west end of
Umatilla county is being fathered by
the leading irrigation workers and
publicists in the United States, who,
at the next meeting Of the National
Irrigation Congress will bring forward
a resolution demanding fhat certain
sum be set aside by the government
to advertise the advantages OF the
particular projects which II is now ir-
rigatfng.
One OF the eminent movers in the
plan is d. II. Anderson, editor of the
Irrigation Age Of Chicago, who advo-
Gated the plan while on a recent visit
to Portland. OF Mr.. Anderson and
his scheme the oregonian says:
Mr. Anderson believes there should
BE- provision made whereby the gov
ernment may spend part OF the rec
!amation funds in attracting atten-
ton to newly-opened irrigated tracts.
He says the government is at a dis
advantage in this regard. compared
with the private projects, which spend
large sums in advertising their tracts.
Mr. Anderson believes the next Ma
tional Irrigation Congress should pass
a resolution favoring the setting aside
of sufficient money annually from
the reclamation fund to provide for
advertising the opening of govern
ment projects and attracting settlers.
while l am not sufficiently famil-
lar with the Oregon situation to dis
cuss it," said Mr.. Anderson, IT recog-
nize that the state is fortunate in hav-
ing private projects in addition to the
government reclamation work. II
seems to me every condition Is favor
able TO the best agricultural develop
ment OF this state along all lines.
There is splendid soil In the valleys
of the state and there are plenty of
valleys"
Mr.. Anderson is one of the most
active workers for irrigation in the
country today. He has served as Sec
retary Of the National Irrigation Con-
gress and has attended probably 100
meetings in the past IL years in va
rious parts Of the country in the in
terest Of irrigation. He has devoted
his life to the work and has lived to
see the movement attain mammoth
in this country.

PARDON Is ASKED

least three citizens Of Pendleton as
to his good moral character. must

gagged in for the last year previous,
and finally must put up a bond of

dinance TO engage in the business
without securing a license. The ordi-
nance goes into effect on Thursday,
December 3, at which time some of
the places now operating in the city
will pass into other and more respec-
table hands, or pass into history, ac-
cording TO the determination express
ed by several OF the councilmen last
evening.

City Fathers Propose TO Control Re-

Go Out of Business-Same Rules as
Formerly Governed saloons.

In order to secure control Of the
near beer business in Pendleton, and
10 give the city jurisdiction over the
question of who shall and who shall
not operate such saloons, the city
council last evening passed an ordi-
nance providing for licensing the
business and charging a license fee
Of $50 for six months, the time for
which each permit will be issued.
The license system is the outgrowth
of an evil which has been prevalent
in certain near-beer joints since pro-
hibition was enacted in this county
that OF selling near beer to minors
and Indians. There are also other
"joints" which have brought the ac-
ton upon themselves by hold-ups and
