Local Option yiolators VIII Be
Overhauled.

The Umatilla grand jury is now in
session, having been called together
this morning by Circuit Judge H. J.
Bean.
Judging by the witnesses summoned
the first case to be called for investi-
cation was the most important of
those to be considered at this time
and was that of George Tracy. ac-
cused of the Murder of Andy Rabeal,
near Umatilla, the evening of No
vember 90. AS it is believed that the
number of witnesses to be examined
is comparatively small, the investiga-
ton of this case will probably be
concluded today and the grand jury
will be ready to return a true bill or
a not true bill. by this evening or
early tomorrow morning. The gen.
eral impression prevails that the pris-
oner will be indicted.
The case against the other men now
in Jail will be taken up next. After
those are disposed of the cases against
those men who are out on bail Will
be Investigated and later, suspected
violations of the local option law will
be looked into and any other cases
which the district attorney may have
to present for the consideration of the
jury.
One of the principal cases to be in
vestigated is that of William Walker.
who is accused of burning his SON

MAY TAKE WATER
FROM CLEAR LAKE

klamath Falls, Ore.-Considerabl
agitation has been caused by the re-
port coming from Modoc county,
Cal, that an effort is to be made to
utilize the waters of Clear lake for
the irrigation of lands in California,
instead of the lands in what is known
as the upper project of the klamath
system. The waters of Clear lake
could be diverted so as to irrigate
either the lands in Oregon or those
in California. There is, however,
not enough water for both projects.
1t is claimed by the people of Mo-
doc county that there are 10000 acres
of irrigable land in California all of
which would be subscribed for gov
ernment irrigation in the event the
waters of Clear lake should be di-
verted so as to be utilized in the
reclamation OF the Modoc county
lands. In Oregon there are more
than twice as many acres, but less
| than 10000 have been subscribed for
government water.
While there are many klamath
| landowners who are inclined to be-
lieve that there Is a remote chance
that the waters of Clear lake may be
diverted for the benefit of the Modoc
country, there are others who fee
that the project is too far advanced
/ to permit of an action of this kind
