LOCAL CLUB WISHES
SERVICE CONTINUED

At the regular monthly meeting of
the Pendleton Commercial club last
evening the principal subject of dis
cussion was the subject of keeping
the boats in operation on the upper
Columbia. No action was taken by
the club since the entire matter is
to be handled by special committee
which is to hold a session here Sep
tember -. However the ground was
gone over thoroughly by various
speakers and the same sentiments
were found to prevail as existed at
the meeting held aboard the steamer
Inland Empire on Monday.
With unanimity the club members
declared for continuing the operation
Of boats by the Open River Transpor-
tation company and the various talks
made by business men show that the
steering committee of seven will have
the enthusiastic endorsement of local
businessmen to the extent of their
ability.
Aside from the subject of open river
transportation other business tran
sacted consisted in consideration of a
request from Lewiston for protection
for the stock show against infringe
ment by other towns and a COM
munication from the Walla Walla
Commercial club relating to better
freight rates on grain.
The meeting last evening was well
attended. despite the fact many pres
ent had been on the Columbia river
trip but the day before and were
tired, and the interest manifested
gives indication of active work by the
Commercial club this fall.

BOND ISSUE FOR MOUNTAIN WATER SYSTEM
MAY COME BEFORE CITY COUNCIL THIS FALL

That the proposition of selling the
100000 bond issue to provide for a
mountain water system for Pendleton
will probably be placed formally be-
fore the city council this fall is stated
by j. Il. Brown, chairman of the wa
ter commission.
However, according to Mr.. Brown,
there is yet much to do before the
matter will be ready for presentation
to the council. For one thing it will
be necessary for the commission to
secure title to the Chaplish springs.
Under the legislation passed recently
by congress the secretary of the in
terror is authorized to have the
springs appraised and sold to the city.
However that transaction has not yet
been made and just how long will be
required to get title to the springs IL
an open question.

covered that the flow there is almost
equal to the flow at Thorn Hollow

of the board that the two springs
combined will provide a flow of ap-
proXimately three million gallons
daily, an amount nearly thrice the
present supply of the city.
The water commission is also hav-
ing a new route surveyed from Thorn

IRRIGATION DISTRICT
FIGHT IS RESUMED

once again the fight over the pro-
posed organization of an irrigation
district to reclaim $4,000 acres of
land out from Echo is being waged
before the county court This after
noon Col. j. II. haley, representing
the settlers who desire the creation
of the district, filed petition and
Judge stephen A. Lowell followed inn
mediately with two remonstrances.
1t will be remembered that pc
tition for the organization of this dis
trict, which is variously known as
the Paradise, Sturgis and Hoskins
project, was filed some time ago at
which time it was opposed by some
of the settlers in the proposed dist
rict who did not wish their land in
cluded Because of some technical
flaw in the procedure the petition
was withdrawn after a preliminary
battle before the county court and it
was practically a refiling that was
made today.
One of the remonstrances filed to-
day was by settlers objecting to the
project and the other was by mort
gage company which demonstrates on
the grounds that the law under which
such a district would be created pro-
vides that liens against the lands foi
the construction of the project shall
constitute first liens thus taking pre-
cedence over mortgages.
In the fight over the proposed pro-
ject much stress is laid upon the es-
Inmates made by engineers on the
probable cost Of construction. An
engineer retained by the settlers who
wish the district placed his. estimate
it is said, at $27 an acre. while e. J.
Davis, in the employ of others, declar-
ed after an investigation that the cost
would be nearer 500 an acre.
