themselves as opposed to the
slow manner in which the gov
ernment is taking hold of and
completing reclamation projects.
There is too much red tape and
not enough effective business
methods employed. If two.
thirds of the high salaried engi
neers and officials would be rele.
gated to the ranks of common
laborers, where they properly
belong, or else told to hit the

horse sense" put in control
there would be something doing.
A great part OF the money
spent is squandered in salaries
to high priced officials and spe
cial agents. A practical man
like j. j. Hill of the Great
Northern Il. Il. would construct
more reservoirs and complete
more reclamation projects in one
year than Newell and his corps
of red tape attaches have done
in the last ten years. Some OF
the assertions being made at the
present gathering in Spokane
are as follows: The govern.
ment of the United States is sit
ting idly by while millions OF
dollars worth of natural re.
sources are going to waste.
American lands are going TO
waste while last year $4,000
Americans sought homes in

RECEIVED Sad news.

E. r. Ware, the furniture
dealer, and brother Clark re-
ceived the sad intelligence Fri.
day last of the accidental death
by drowning of their younger
brother. Harley, which occurred
at Pennington, Iowa, on We'd

From information rece " g d
in letter Monday from sister
about the accident, Harley at
tended the Chatauqua meeting
that night, after which he and
six other young men went in
bathing opposite the power
house. They had been in but a
few minutes when one of the
boys who was just ahead OF
Harley, shouted to him if he
could touch bottom. He did
this twice and received no ans.
wer, then looked around and
could see nothing of him. The
boys searched and called and
then gave the alarm. The work
was continued all night, and
about z o'clock in the morning
the body was found on the oppo'
site side of the river in shallow
water. He uttered not a sound,
and some believe when he sank
he never came up at all. 1t is
supposed that he was seized
with cramps.
Harley was one of the promi
nent young business men of his
home town, Pennington, being
engaged with an elder brother
IN the undertaking business, and
his sad taking away will be
deeply mourned by the com
munity in which he lived.
The funeral took place il

last, the services being con

Every Part Of the County Entitled
to Equal Rights In the Natter
Of Road Improvements.
The Western End Of Umatilla County
Receives Little Recognition From
County Court Citizens Have to
DIG Up Hard Cash for Road Work

Good roads do more toward
advancing the business interests
of town and in the enhancement
of the property valuations of a
particular community than any
other one thing. Every pre-
cinct in Umatilla county on
its assessed property valuation
pays its pro rata of the county
and state taxes, and thus is
Justly entitled to and should re-
ceive equal rights and privileges
along with every other precinct
or locality in the county in the
matter of road Improvement.
There should be no discrimina-
tion on the part of the county
court. The county should be
unit for road improvement in its
very nook and corner Do not
~ to build up one part of the
county, exclusively, with county
funds and allow another just as
resourceful a part to drag along
tha best it can. The county
Ids are for the use and inn
provement of all the county, not
Tor any one particular part or
locality.
The people of this end of the
coLnty feel that they have a just
grievance.
When it comes to bettering
the condition of the roads, or in
making any improvements there
on, the western end of Umatilla
county receives very little re-
cognition from the county court.
This condition has existed so
long that the people of this end
of the county. and especially the
business men of Echo, have
come to consider it almost obi.

into their pockets and dig up the

AS an illustration we might
mention that only about week
ago the road from Butter creek
to Echo, at one point, was al
most in an impossible condition.
1t needed repairs at once. The
matter could not wait to be car
ried to and parleyed oyer before
the county court. The result
was that, as on many and many
former occasions, the business
men of Echo were called upon
to put up the necessary money
for the repair of this road that
should have been justly borne
by the county.
A remedy for this condition of
affairs, and only in justice to our
taxpayers, is for the county
court to give this end of the
county just recognition; appoint
a competent road supervisor
with full authority to do neces-
sary work, at the time it is
needed. without having to go

sether on This Proposition and
Start the Ball to Rolling Some
Pertinent Sayings About Officials

The Reclamation officials have
long ago decided that the John
Dav project is a good one, and
that in reclaiming $50, 900 acres
of the very choicest arid lands
of the West it would not cost to
exceed $1,000, 900. If private
enterprise can successfully in.
stall an irrigation system, such
as the Twin Falls in Idaho, at a
cost of 5000, 600, aud do it, too,
without red tape, parley and de-
lay, we can see no good reason
why the United States govern.
ment cannot take up and carry
to completion the John Day
project. If the government at
present has not all of the neces-
sary money, let it set aside even
81, 100000 and begin work on
the project. BY the time that
amount is used up there will
certainly be more money availa-
BILE and thus the work can easily
be carried on TO completion.
There is no necessity of waiting
until the full amount necessary
to complete the work is in the
treasury.
Echo business men should get
together on this proposition and
appoint a committee to wait on
Secretary BallInger while he is
in the West, or, better still, in
vite the Secretary 10 come to
Echo and let all the people have
a chance at him.
Just think, Mr.. Business Man
of Echo, what the installing of
the John Day project means to
you in dollars and cents, and to
the country generally in devel-
opment and the upbuilding of
beautiful and prosperous homes
Under the John Day project
there are $50, 900 acres with an
over abundance of water to cover
every acre of it; natural reser-
voir and power sites, excellent
drainage, and the easy work of
canal construction in diverting
the waters onto the lands, are
some of the existing conditions
that will appeal for the begin.
ming of work on the project at
an early date. Sitting idly by
and watching the Reclamation
funds being thrown away on
high salaried officials, and in
installing wild cat projects where
graft is dominant, will never
build the John Day project.
Secretary Ballinger, possibly is
from Missouri" and will have
to be shown, and the people of
Echo, whose interests are para.
mount in the project, are the
ones to show him, and to i'm
press upon him the reasons why
work on the John Day project
should not longer be delayed.
The government is slow, and
like the government mule you
have got TO keep prodding ii up
in order to accomplish results,
and as regards the Reclamation
Service and officials there is Ger.
