Conservation System
Benefit to all.
MEETING IN GONDON APRIL 4
Letter From Chas. Martin Ex.
planning Possibilities OF
Conservation.

The possibilities Of Gillian
County under the conservation
system, with the prospect of two
dam sites under contemplation
and the promise Of a bumper
fruit and grain crop already as
sured by the moisture now stor-
ed in the ground from melting
SHOWS and rain during the win
ter months gives every citizen
cause to feel jubilant and rejoice,
and further calls for every citi-
zen to put his shoulder to the
wheel and help push these two
propositions to a speedy compile
ton. The benefits to be derived
Iare wonderful, not only to a few,
but to the county in general.
With the John Day project we
would have an immense body of
water held in our southwest,
which would naturally have a
tendency to concentrate the
clouds and cause mere rainfall
through the southern and west
ern portions. Then we follow
this ditch on down to Rock Greek
and find they have an elevation
sufficient to water considerable
of the lower portion Of this val
ley and all the north end of
Shutter Flat. Then carry this
water on through the sand coun-
try between Willow Creek and
the Columbia River and we have
a complete system of water con-
Meeting with the Hermiston and
Irrigon projects, tempering our
north and east winds and allay-
ing all danger from that source.
Now in order to make this sys-
TEN complete we lack one thing,
namely, a storage water site on
upper Rock Creek to connect
with the above mentioned one
and place the upper Rock Greek
valley and southern part of
Shutter Flat under water. This
water can easily be taken to the
top of the hills above Shutter
Flat and during winter months
storage reservoirs created from
which water can be carried dur
ing summer months to various
parts of the country. This TAX
en- in connection with benefits to
be derived from the water held
in the dam site encircles our
county with a complete system

10 iHDOsoluftt DtlUIc yOu VIII
lend your support to the ur-
building of Gillian County,
How do you expect to get the
UNANIMOUS support Of the
pecp.e? II you have any mag
netic and hopnotic power you
are the genius of the century.
IL you can get every man in
Gillian County to support such
a proposition it would be an un-
heard of thing. II has been the
experience of others who inaug-
urated movements Of this kind,
that a few dead ones and a few
who think more of the almighty
dollar than any public spirited
movement, can never be secured.
Ii you can accomplish such
thing / will resign tomorrow as
one Of the Directors Of the
Booster Club and request you,
as one of the citizens Of Condor
to come forward and do youi
duty TO Gillian County, and
which will mean so much to the
people who live among us.
You seem to be Of the i'm
preston that it will benefit the
real estate firm, Of which am a
member. How would it benefit
our firm and not you, dear edi-
tor? 1t is true that the firm Of
which | am a member would Sc
cure some benefit. But how? i
take it BY selling some farms to-
chose who happen to come in
by virtue Of the fact that they
secured some literature which
was paid for by the Booster
Club. But has it occurred to you
that this same opportunity to-
meet a buyer in Condor belongs
to you also and every other citi-
zen and farmer who has a farm
to sell and does not have it listed
with us? You are in the real e.
tate business and advertise such
fact through the medium Of your
paper. That being true, do you
confess that you will not be able
to get your share of the buyers
who come to Condor or Airing
ton to secure a ranch?
Assuming for the sake of ar
gument that the buyer comes to-
town and you sell him a farm. |
Who will be benefited by this?I
Nearly every business man in
Gillian County. The new citi-
zen would cause his neighbor or
friend from some place else to
come here, who in turn would
cause others to come and settle |
among us. This then would
mean more people, more people |
means more supplies. More sup
plies means a bigger trade to the
and consequently |
more profits and more profits, to
tie merchants means more ad-
vertising in the papers, and
this | am sure would be welcome
to you. If this is a fact, why
not support the worthy move
ment for the benefit of condi-
tions of the citizens of Gillian
county?
This movement cannot benefit
one any more than another. It'll
is non-political and has nothing
to do with any personal feelings
that might exist and should new
er control in a case of this kind.
hope | am broad-minded en-
ough to eliminate any personal
if there be any, in a
question Of this kind, regardless
Of what our political affiliations
may be. If we differ in politics,
and have diverse opinions, nev-
ertheless, in a movement of this
kind we should stand together in
the upbuilding of its resources
