BOOMERS FERRY
GROWS AMBITIOUS
Has Man Who Aspires to
' Go to the United States
Senate.

In the event United States Senator
William f. Borah is the Republican
nominee for president. the progressive
town of Boomers Ferry, now county
seat of the most northern county in the
state. Boundary, will bring forth
candidate to succeed him in the United
States senate. This modest assertion
was made today by Bartlett Sinclair,
who is in Boise to attend the Lincoln
banquet tonight and discourse to those
assembled regarding the relationship
of the party to state issues.
Boomers Ferry has been very modest
in the matter Of candidates for any
state or national Office said Mr.. Sim
clair. IN fact we have sat quietly by
for 10 these many years and permitted
other communities to bring forth their
material positions. Bonners Ferry
will have at least one candidate before
the people of the great state OF Idaho
during the coming campaign. In the
event of the nomination Of Senator
Borah for president and his resigna-
ton as senator, Bonners Ferry will
bring forth a man big enough to take
a seat in the United States senate.
Speaking of our distinguished SEN
ator, it seems to me that there should
be lot of Borah work done from now
on until the next national convention
of the Republican party. Really, while
not wanting to bring the north into
any extraordinary prominence. l be-
lieve can say that Senator Borah has
as many warm personal friends as can
be found in any part of the state. In
fact. we have been and still are very
strong supporters of his and we be-
lieve that he can be nominated for the

WATER
FOR LANDS ALONG
MALHFUR RIVER
Irrigation District to Be
Formed and Bonds Issued
for Building of Reservoir
and bitches.
Capital News Special service.)


Ontario. Feb. 12.--Preliminary steps
are being taken for the formation of
an irrigation district to develop the
Maiheur project, which will give an
ample and reasonably priced water
right for $4,000 acres along the NAL
heur river, from above Vale down to
Ontario and Nyssa, including the Dead
OK Flat. Petitions are being circulat-
ed among land owners to have a meet
ing and election called by the county.
court. Prominent members OF the
Vale Chamber of Commerce are talk
ing the initiative in the movement,
and the Ontario Commercial club has
volunteered to cooperate.
The Malheur project has been sur
veyed by the states and the govern
ment's engineers working jointly, and
a reclamation service report on 1t is
now being printed. State Engineer
John H. Lewis, and Engineers Whist
Ter and Dopson of the reclamation
service, pronounce the Malheur prof.
ect as the most feasible and attrac-
tive in oregon, If not in the entire
northwest. Its chief feature is res
ervoir site at Warm Springs. where
water can be impounded sufficient to
water the entire district, at u cost of
not more than 81 an acre-foot. The
dam is planned to store, with spill
way crest So feet above low water,
$4,000 acre-feet. The rest of the
needed supply is to be found in the
natural flow of the river during the
season.
Lands Already Improved.
Nearly all the lands under this prof.
ect are decided, and half of them are
improved, with bitches and partial
water rights now, sufficient to raise
two crops of hay year. Between On
tario and the mouth of the Malheur
canyon 80 miles above, nine bitches di-
vert water from the regular flow of the
river for the partial irrigation Of $4,000
acres. The cost of completed water
rights for these lands is estimated to
be as low as $40 an acre or even less;
for the rest Of the $4,000 acres. from
$50 to $40.
The chief reason for activity at this
time is said to be the exceptionally
good opportunities there will be for
the flotation of irrigation bonds dur
ing the coming year. and a general dis
inclination to wait for the government
to undertake the development of the
| project, owing to the depletion of the
reclamation fund, even though the APP
prevail of the reclamation service has
already been given this project and 1t
is sure to be one of the first under
taken. But greater hopes are given
for it's success if district is formed
now by the statewide campaign for a
constitutional amendment permitting
the state to guarantee irrigation bonds.
The amendment was proposed by the
Oregon Irrigation congress. which met
last December. and is being Endorsed
by commercial organizations all over
the state. II it is adopted in Novem-
Der, and followed by legislative enact
ment at the next session, projects
which have received state and govern
ment approval will have no difficulty
in selling bonds.
