UNCLE SAM AWAKENS.


1t is evident the United States gov
ernment is at last waking up and is
thinking of doing its duty by the In
dams of the Umatilla reservation. If
it keeps on its present course the long
fight for the establishment of reser-
walton water rights will be successful
and there will be opportunity for
close development and settlement of
the reservation.
In the turn affairs have taken the
East Oregonian takes much satisfac-
tion because this paper sees in the
same triumph of justice and a pos
sibility of development that will mean
much to this little city.
BY all the rules of fair play the
Umatilla Indians are entitled to wa
ter for their allotments. They were
forced to take their allotments and
to give up the wide pastures over
which their fathers rode and hunted
When the diminished reservation was
allotted the Indians it was with the ex-
plicit understanding they should OBJ
tain the benefit of all the natural re-
sources of the reservation, including
the water The right to the water is
guaranteed them by treaty and in
similar cases the supreme court of the
United states has ruled that the right.
of Indians so granted take proceed
ence over all other rights.
grace the United States government
did not establish irrigation upon the
reservation long ago. Had the gov
ernment watered the Indian land and
taught the redmen the art of diversi-
fled farming instead of weakening
the tribe by the establishment of the
slothful renting system the local In
dians would be much higher than they
are up the ladder Of civilization. The
government has professed to care for
and uplift the Indian yet in the loca.

the one great secret of progress and

its neglect it is entirely to the credit
Of the officials in charge.
It will be asserted Of course that
the tablishment Of the Indian rights

From d purely aesthetic viewpoint
Prescott mas kept pace with the same
great advancement which the city
has shown along other lines. and per
haps the fairest expression OF the re
fined culture and enlightened senti-
ment of her people Is shown in the
array of pleasant and beautiful
homes to be found in all parts OF The
CITY There are residence sections
thai are yerita5le parks, the homes
being Of prosperous appearance aud
beaatiful architectural design More
than fifteen miles OF concrete walks
have been built into all parts Of the
city and these with beautiful and

shade trees on both sides of all

suits. and TO say hat il is pleasing 20
the eye and most gratifying to the
visitors aestheticism is to put it but

colt be called city of Homes" for
she has more residences worthy tho

OF ike size in the state. and the num-
Der OF these dwellings and improve
meHts are keeping pace with the cola
mereial growth at a rate which adds
scores of pretty residences to the lisJ
OF ornamental edifices each year.
This issue contains an almost com
plete representation of the business
men of the city. Not all. however.
for Prescott is just. like all other
towns and has a few of the mossback
and obstructionist type. and others
who are at all times supplied with
an excuse for Sinking the duties of
good citizenship and obligations they
owe to their town. Some of the
main ones of this class are conspicu-
GUS by their absence from our issue.
