When an unfair privilege is called
into question and the defenders of that
privilege have no valid
Let Secretary grounds for argu-
Lane Be, ment they resort to
The Judge. assailing the motives
of those who would
bring about reform.
This explains why the editor of this
paper is accused of personal spite for
having raised the question of irriga-
ton rights upon the Umatilla reserva-
ton when visit from the Secretary
OF the Interior is pending. That
charge of spitefulness is neither sim
cere nor true. There is no spite held
by this paper or its editor against the
Byers milling company. No more so
than against the man in the moon.
No reputable newspaper, alive to
the welfare of this section, could fail
10 take the very course the East Ore
gonian has taken. This case here is
plain case of a principle versus a
privilege. 1t is a case of right
against wrong. 1t is a case where
one party borrowed something from
another and has kept it so long that
the borrower is now trying to claim
the property and kick the rightful
owner out of camp. The question at
issue is as to whether or not such a
course shall be tolerated
From a local development stand
point nothing could be more import
ant to Pendleton than the rightful
settlement Of this reservation water
issue. II irrigation can be established
upon the reservation it will mean
everything, to Pendleton. 1t has al
ready been ascertained by the govern
ulent engineers that over 5000 acres
along the river may be irrigated by
using the direct flow of the river. 1t
would be extremely fertile land and
IL divided into 10 acre tracts would
make homes for 600 families immedi-
ately tributary to Pendleton. BY use
Of the flood waters or through a stor-
age project a great many thousand
acres more could be made highly pro-
ductive and capable Of sustaining a |
large population. 1t would make
Pendleton's future secure.
But that Of course is merely Incl
dental. The essential point is the
raoral question that is involved 1t is
whether or not 1000 people, most of
them ignorant and helpless, shall be
kept from their birthright ir order to
benefit a corporation that is playing
the dog in the manger. The Umatilla
Indians have a moral right to the use
OF water upon their allotments. There
is every reason to believe they have
a legal right. They derived their
land and the appurtanences by treaty
from the government. The Interior
Department has never given the BY
ers company anything but tempor-
airy permit to use water. Congress re-
fused to strengthen that permit in
any particular. Yet the company has
monopolized the river and the reser-
walton has gone unirrigated and unde-
veloped.
Now the supporters of the milling
company assert that despite the fact
the sole point at issue is federal
uestion the case must be handled by
the state courts, no matter what de-
lay may insue and no matter how
harmful such course may be to the
Indians.
Why should the law be made to
work injustice when it was intended
to promote justice? Why should the

RAILROAD MEN TRY
To AVOID HOODOO
BUT ALL IN VAIN

The jinx hoodoo worked on the Rio
Grande railway last Friday.
The story as narrated by local rail
way men is as follows: The west
bound local was about to leave the
yards at Minturn. Every man on
the train crew had awakened that
morning, fully aware that II was Fri
day, tho thirteenth and 1913. They
noticed that engine 1113 was at
tachcd to the local and then were
Mortified to find out that train had
l3 cars.
There was mysterious shunting
of cars that was not ord red by the
switchmen and the train left sudden
ly and there were but l 2 cars in the
line. But the hoodoo was not to be
avoided thus, as they could not re-
move the date from the cal ndar and
near Eagle the 1113 left the track
and chewed up several dollars worth
of timbsr known as ties but did not
overturn or hurt anyone. It is said
that never has the canon above Glen
wood been so 'feelingly" traversed
as by the 1113 and her crew after the
engine was back on the track and
resumed its way to Glenwood.

Leasing has come to be an import

Wardner and Kellogg, A few years

this district and when 1t was attempt
ed the leasers We're SO restricted In
their operations that the system was
not sufficiently attractive to cause
them to stay with It. But more lib

ed at Wardner and Kellogg, partlcu
larly by the Bunker Hill e. Sullivan
company. with the result that half q
dozen or more leasing companies are
have good prospects of making money
Much of the ground under lease Is
owned by the Bunker Hill and that
company encourages the leasers by
milling their ore on reasonable terms
