Will Ask the
Legislature
to Help Them


Portland, Ore, Jan 1O.-The second
day Of the Oregon irrigation congress
brought forth determined attack
on the Carey act, the congress propos-
ing as a substitute plan of co-opera-
tive reclamation by government, state
and private agencies.
A resolution was introduced today,
asking the legislature to appropriate
$4,000, the government appropriating
like amount, to be used by the state
engineer in q detailed investigation Of
one or more feasible projects in Ore
gon
1t is assumed that the first investi-
cation will be made of the great De-
schutes basin project, urged by ]. N.
Teal, chairman Of the conservation
committee, before the congress.
The objection raised to the Carey
project now In operation, is that 1t
permits of promotion and speculation,
which is reflected in the high cost of
land to settlers.
No fight is being made on the recla-
nation service itself.
A number of addresses were heard
by the congress today

There is no doubt that "The Elks'

"The childish, perverted judgment
on the part of many in relation to the
municipal ownership Of the water
plant should be replaced by some good
solid ideas not only in the interest of
Salems financial circumstances, but
in the interests Of favorable advertis-
ing and pure water. Why in the name
Of heaven the people want to purchase
an old, secondhand water plant (and
knowing the plant is rapidly becoming
antiquated) is more than | can under

parently the highest ambitions of 9om6
of our most public spirited citizens
who think the advertisement of pure
water supply Is the one golden boost
for the city. 1t has been proven re-
peatedly that Salem must have an ade-
quate water supply and that to secure
same, she must draw 1t from the Will
lamette river. The pipe line question
is worn thread-bare. Thanks to tho
experience of Portland, the feasible
ness of pipe line system is being
demonstrated nicely. That city has
been compelled to install another line
and what would Salem do in the event
1t expended probably six millions Of
dollars and was then compelled to re-
peat the act? What would Salem do
also in the event it purchased the Sa-

more valuable advertisement imagined
than to flaunt before the eyes of our
eastern friend the fact that the Cap

I'VE want capital, industries and all
the modern conveniences adapted to

debt and frighten capital? The first
question asked by business man in

amount of taxes. l will venture to say
that eight out Of every ten prospec-

NEW YORK, Oct. 1s.-Over tele-
graph wires that fairly sizzle with
the heated expression of angry wom-
an ana i'm mail pouches of unusual
uuIh. come messages to Mrs. Emme-
inc Pankhurst as she sits in deten-
zion on Ellis Island, from every part

r.G her that American women are
Der friends. and are indignant at the
Treatment she is receiving at the
hands o. the immigration authorities.
It is significant that the wrathfu'
communications bear that element of
utftancv of which Mrs. Pankhurst
is the apostle. and against which
American suffragists until now have
uycighad The suffragists every

Mrs. Pankhurst is in the keeping
of immigration officers, and is really

The immigration authorities, after
short conference to-day, decided
that some Of the crimes of which she
mad been convicted in England did
involve moral turpitude, And thus
the protest of American suffrdgists
is the same revolt against authority
which Mrs. Pankhurst has preached
IN England. BY her Imprisonment
she has converted many 10 Ter side.
So the expressions of her myriad
message conclude.
II is understood that resolutions OF
every degree of anger have been tele-
grdphed to President Wilson, Secre-

Commissioner Caminetti and Sena-
tors. besides personal messages re-
guessing that the order be put aside

Her face was ruddy, and apparently
she was in excellent health and spir-
