Ruse Won't Work.


The bunc has tried manfully for the
past three days, by attacks upon The
Statesman and its employees. to draw
attention from the copyrighted con-
test that is furnishing no end of amuse-
menE to the people of southeastern
Washington The Statesman has it's
eagle eye on several things in connec-
ton with the aforesaid contest. and by
the time those grand prizes are
awarded one bunc manager will wonder
why he ever entered the contest busi-
ness. The rag may hawl at The
Statesman. its manager and its en-
ployes. but those howls only give
ample evidence to a long suffering
public that the sheet has been stepped
upon. and is gasping for breath in or
der to gain new lease on life.
Honesty is the best policy, Mr.. bunc
manager. Can't you remember the
time when YOU waddled off to Sunday
school: how, when the teacher asked
the golden text you were among the
first to repeat the words? How she
adnlOnished you TO be always on the
lookout to follow CLOSELY the rule then
impressed upOn your youthful mind:
Friends in Washtucna will be sore
srieved to know that you have at
tempted such a fraud upon the public,
but they perhaps will overlook your
short -comings. knowing full well you
were unable to adapt yourself to city

May Complete Project.

Ontario-Three companies. are nego
tiating with land owners under the
abandoned Malheur government irriga
ton project looking to taking up and
completing the irrigation system. The
Trowbridge-Nive company has com
pleted surveys on the south side and
now has the work on the north side
well under way, The other two com
panies which want to become inter
ested in this work are composed of
Colorado capitalists. One of these
companies has just completed a large
irrigation enterprise in Colorado. Two
committees have been appointed by the
land owners of the north and south
sides to consider the best propositions
for securing a permanent and substan,
tial water right for the lands under
the Malheur project. Interesting de
velopments are looked for in few
days.

WILL RECLAIM DESERT.
Irrigation Project in Lake County
Progresses RAPIDLY.

Lakeview-Thirty miles of the Cot.
tonwood canal have been finished. The
big ditch is Is feet wide at the bot.
tom, with a minimum wall height of
five feet. The canal will take water
from Cottonwood river by means of a
huge dam and reservoir, and will lead
around the foothills on the west side
of the valley to the terminal at Thomas
creek, into which stream for the pres
ent the excess waters of the canal will
be turned. 1t is only one of three sys.
TENS which ultimately will cover every
foot of irrigable land in this valley,
$4,000 or more acres. The present canal
will water about 10000 acres.
For considerable distance after the
canal debouches ipto >the valley it is
carried alongside the mountain, which
required the blasting out of the entire
ditch through solid rock. All the rock
had to be removed by hand which
made it very expensive piece of
work. Probably 20 miles of the canal
is what may be TERMED dirt work,
though in some places the rock, of a
water formation, thinly stratifed, ap-
pears at the surface and this also had
to be blasted out.

CLAIM AGAINST CHILE.
United States Makes Demand for Set
tlement of Old Case.

Washington, Nov. 20.-The Alison,
claim against Chile for more than
81 100000, pending for 80 years, has
assumed critical stage. Mr.. Dawson,
American minister to Chile, is now on
his way to Washington, having left Mr.
Pierpont in charge of the legation
1t is not improbable that. if the.
| Chilean government does not consent
to a final settlement within the next
few days, the American legation in
Santiago will be closed and its archives
placed in the hands of the American
consul for safekeeping. Intimation to
this affect has been given to Minister
Cruz representing Chile in Washing
ton.
This action on the part of the state
department is not to be- taken as an
ultimatum to Chile, but this govern
s purpose in Withdrawing its dip
lomatic representatives from that coun-
try is a protest against Chile's in
terminablo delays concerning this claim.
1T is not thought probable that Chile
will willingly continue to be exhibited
before the world as n country which
resorts to every possible effort to avoid
the payment of admittedly Just debts.
Only week or, ten days ago Minister
Dawson entered into an agreement with
the Chilean foreign office as to the form
of protocol which was to be the basis
for reference of the Alsop claim to
The Hague tribunal
The Chilean government, however, re-
fused to comply with conditions agreed
upon, and in effect repudiated its own
foreign office.

URGED TO USE BIG STICK.
London Wants Taft to Keep Peace in
Central America.

London, Nov. 23.-Nothing could be
more agreeable to Europe, 50 far as
Central American affairs are concerned,
than such turn of events on the Mic.
araguan coast as would give Washing
ton good grounds for drastic action.
''It is to be hoped,' says the London
Review, "that Mr. Roosevelt did not
take the big stick with him to Africa,
and that President Taft knows where
to lay his hands on it.
"There may be two opinions as to
the expediency of welding it in inter
nal concerns, such as corporation ,ag
gressiveness, like the Standard oil, and
corporation iniquity, like the American
sugar. That is for the Washington
administration to say.
"But if the United States is to en-
force the Monroe doctrine and main
tain the hegemony of the western
world, the plainest of plain duties to
the rest of the universe requires that
the brawling Latin states near the
isthmus be fiogged into some sense of
discipline. -
