Early Irrigation Started.

klamath Falls-Water was turned
into the Griffith canal Saturday by the
Reclamation service. This is a week
earlier than the water will be used
generally over the project, but it was
necessary to supply the sandy lands in
the Sand Hollow and Malin districts,
as they are blown badly by the strong
April winds.
The water was turned in from Lost
river, and would otherwise have vast
ed away through the diversion canal to
klamath river. Heretofore the Malin
ranchers have suffered considerably be-
cause water could not reach them ex-
cept through the main canal, but the
enlarging and extension of the Griffith
canal last summer has brought great
relief.

IRISH IN REBELLION
Many Killed in Uprising in Dublin.
Widespread Plot Believed Nipped.

London - With IL persons kille
and 10 wounded as the result of an up
rising in Dublin Tuesday, all Irelan
is smouldering volcano.
Although the capital was almos
completely isolated by the cutting O
telegraph lines when the rebels seizet
the postofice. the. government pro
fesses to be in control of the situation
The most sanguine, however, will moi
predict what even the next hour will
bring forth.
Augustine Birrell, chief secretary
for Ireland, who made the first an
nouncement of the trouble in the house
of commons Wednesday, could give
few details. The government knew,
he said, that about a dozen SOL
diers had been killed, that arrests
had been made, and that troops were
on the way from The Curragh to Dub
lin. 1t did not know the number of
rioters killed, or the parts of the city
that were still in their possession.
So far as known, the trouble started
at noon on Monday in the center of
Dublin. A mob, composed mainly of
members of the Sim Fein society,
seized Stephens Green, a large park
near the Royal university; the post
Office on Sackville street and several
houses Immediately adjoining.
Troops, hastily summoned, and loyal
volunteers sought to expel the rebels,
who meanwhile had cut all the COM
munication lines. In the fighting that
ensued two policemen and two citizens
were killed, together with several sol
diers.
1t is the connection between the re-
volt and the attempted landing of Sir
Roger Easement with German arms on
the Irish coast that makes the situa-
tion ominous. It is believed now that
there is vast conspiracy afoot
through all Ireland and that the arri-
val of Sir Roger had been set as the
signal for general uprising.
The official statement, however, as
serts that the disturbances were local
lied in Dublin. Reports received from
Cork, Limerick, Ennie, Tralee and
both ridings of Tipperary, where the
Sim Feiners have been especially
strong, show that if any revolts were
planned they failed to materialize.
The prompt seizure of Easement and
the sinking of the German auxiliary
with her cargo of arms are believed to
have disorganized the plans of the
leaders,.
None of the Irish leaders here are
believed implicated in the plots. Both
Sir Edward Carson, who is one of the
strongest members of coalition govern
ment, and John Redmond, the Nation
alists chief, unite in condemning the
acts of rebellion.

State Money Is Involved.

Salem-The right to possession Of
$25, 900 paid by the state of Oregon

Through condemnation proceedings
the state acquired the hospital proper
ty which adjoins the state asylum,
turning over $25, 900 appropriated by
the legislature in payment. The mon
ey, now in possession Of the county
clerk, is claimed by the hospital au-
thorities and also the Chiidren's Aid
society. The latter claims the money
by reason Of the terms of the deed in
which it conveyed the property to the
hospital association. The deed speci-
fies that the hospital shall maintain a
children's ward and not dispose of the
Now by condemnation the
Aid society claims it is entitled TO the

in the British being forced to retreat
after an engagement with a Turkish
column superior in numbers.
