East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-09-21

about eighteen miles east of Pendle-
ton. The principal spring now being
used, is the Wenix spring The
springs now tapped furnish plenty or
water the minimum "a hour flow
during the past summer having been
100000 gallons. Anticipating the
growth of Pendleton, survey is now
being made to the Chaplish springs.
about three miles beyond the Wenix
springs and the pipe line will prob
ably be extended there next year.
This will give an additional 1900
600 gallons daily. The pipe line is
sufficiently large to carry 5000. 900
gallons of daily daily and this will be
sufficient for the needs of Pendleton
for many. years to come.
The system was built with an eye
to the future. In fact the present
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-09-21

along the bluffs at Thorn Hollow were
let to Jeffrey & Button of Portland.
The reservoirs were completed about
April 18th. 1914. Each reservoir has
a capacity of one million gallons and
they are arranged so one may be used
while the other reservoir is being
cleaned or repaired. Through the use
of a pass the water from the springs
may be turned directly into the dis
trIbuting system without going
through the reservoirs at all. This ar
rangement insures a cooler supply Of
water during the summer months and
at the same time is protection against
inconvenience should the reservoirs
ever become disabled
The system is very favorably built
in that the operation will require
practically no expense as the flow Of
water into the pipe line is adjusted
automatically at the tank house at the
upper end of the line.
The pipe line is of concrete and
reinforced concrete For a distance
Of $4,000 feet a "a inch pipe is used
while for a distance of 1855 feet a
90 inch pipe is in Use. At other points
the size Of the line varies from IS

Along the bluffs below Thorn HoI-
low there are three different tunnels
averaging about 100 feet in length. A
view OF one of the tunnels is shown
above. There are four concrete tres
ties on the line. The siphons vary
from is foot to a 9 foot hydraulic
head. In the building OF the water
system there was excavation work to
the extent of $4,000 cubic yards. Al
ong the line there are 2S manholes at
distances Of half a mile apart. The
drop on the pipe line Is one inch 20

the line and for the last II miles the
fall is more abrupt. there being a to-

WAR WITH MEXICO PROBABLE.

When Gen. Scott invaded Mexico in 1S46-S he was at the head of thirty thousand regulars and forty thousand militia His cannon were siX-pound- CTS, his guns used percussion caps, and were muzzle loaders, and his mu- nitions and supplies were conveyed on OK wagons. With all these hand leaps he fought the Mexicans to standstill in two years, and defeated a force nearly four times as great as his own under Santa Ana. Our mod ern equipment should end war with the peppery little republic in from two to four months, as Mexico has no arms or intuition factories, and must depend on what she receives from outside sources.
 The greatest difficulty in war with the southern republic will be getting supplies to an army with base in central Mexico, but a cordon of warships thrown around the coast would reduce Mexico to terms in a years time without firing shot, as she is absolutely dependent upon this country for supplies. For ten years Mexico has not been able to raise enough to supply her people, and if her ports were blockaded would be literally starved out in a few months.

PROVE CASE FOR PUBLIC.

The Bethlehem Steel Company is conducting an extensive advertising campaign against the proposed gov ernment armor plate plant, bill to appropriate $11.OOO,OOO to construct which has passed one branch of Congress and has been favorably re ported to the other. In the advertis- ing literature which it is sending out, the Bethlehem company says it has reduced the cost of armor plate to the United States since the incoming of the Wilson administration more than 20 per cent. or from more than
 $500 a ton to $425 ton. It states further that it is now promising Con- gress that it will further reduce it to s395 a ton, or if the government de- sires. it will enter into contract to make armor plate at such price as government appointed experts on the
Valdez daily prospector., 1916-04-24

to be accorded Japanese in the United States as were accorded Americans in Japan.
 The administration is in a serious predicament, as the proposed bill has been strongly endorsed by the Feder- ation of Labor and labor unions all over the country, who have declared that they will fight any congressman who votes againt it. If it carries it means war with Japan; if it don't carry it means war with the Unions. And in either case, the results would
 be extremely embarrassing to the ad-
 ministration.
 In case we ever engaged in war with Japan, Alaska would be the first
 portion of the United States which
 would bear the brunt of the war. Ab- solutely undefended, with thousands
 of miles of coast line to protect, and
 with it's splendid harbors and rich
 coal fields, the Japanese could land on this great possession without the loss of a man or ship.
 Japan needs Alaska, and would probably try to seize it as soon as she
 went to war with the United States. It must be remembered that England is now an ally of Japan. and Canada has long cast covetous eyes upon our Territory. Whether the blood ties between the two great nations would be sufficient to impel Canada to break off from England and side with the
 United States in case of trouble with Japan is extremely problematical.
 But Japan today is Alaska's great est menace. and with trouble with the Orientals steadily drawing nearer lit is high time that the most promi- inent harbors were fortified and pro- tected against invasion.

JAPAN'S PROTEST TO l.. s.

Japan's protest against the adop- lion of the proposed Immigration bill providing for the literacy test, is more serious than is generally admit led by the administration. \ break with Japan over the proposed Cali fornia alien laws was only averted by the greatest diplomacy. a few years ago. and Japan is much more affronted with the proposed federal Immigration law than she was with the California alien law.
 Japan claims the present bill is a direct insult to the Japanese. and has notified the administration that it will not stand for the bill as proposed. She claims violation of her treaty rights under which the same privileges were
Valdez daily prospector., 1916-04-24

Federal Trade Commission may de- termine to be fair. In other words, it says in so many words, i've will make the armor plate and let the gov ernment name the price,
 This would indicate that Secretary of the Navy Daniels knew something of what he was talking when he said that the United States had been pay ing too much for armor plate and that it could be made cheaper, and further it shows that he already has accom- plished great deal that he started out to do. In short, the armOr plate makers have proved the case against themselves for Mir. Daniels.

HANDICAPPED

After many months of investiga- ton, the "Eastland" tragedy. involv- ing the lives of a thousand more or less no account people, has been sat- isfactorily settled-that is, the set clement is satisfactory to the impor- tant people of the country. How the relatives of the drowned will take it is another matter, which, after all. is of TO particular importance.
 The steamboat inspectors have all teen exonerated. the owners and of
 cials or the company and the cap tain and engineer of the vessel have also been exonerated. the indictments against them having been quashed. There is nothing or nobody to blame; the thing just happened
 The wreck has been raised, patch ed up. sold at fair profit. and will be used again to carry human and other freight, so the incident may be considered closed.
 But the "Lusitania' tragedy only one-tenth as great in the loss of American lives. and which occurred more than two months before the "Eastland" catastrophe-is still a subject of friction and is far from settled. In fact. there is still pos sibility that we may kill lot of peo- ple-or get killed trying to do SO in order to establish justice and pun ish crime in the "Lusitania" affair.
 And. of course, any one who would dissuade us from the procedure and urge us to settle the matter in view ot the danger of war over it is cow ard, a traitor, and in the highest de- gree unpatriotic.
 But those who would insist on jus tice and punishment in the East land" case-they are much worse; they are agitators, demagogues, trai- tors, inciters of class hatred, destroy CTS of our most sacred institutions and enemies of society.
 Germany has at least offered to pay an indemnity for the American lives lost on the "Lusitania" but not one red cent will be paid from any source to indemnify the dependents of the "Eastland'' victims.
 1t is "the principle Of the thing" that we stand for.

And when you come down to it.. about all the saving that was effect ed last year over any previous year was in the matter of city printing. Year before last printing and adver- Using came to $552.10: according to figures published in the town clerks alleged report. Last year printing and advertising cost the city $66.SS. The difference between two two sums came out of the Prospector.

The Stars warcry is Swat the Lawyer" It is just as good war cry, possibly, as any other would be for John, and no one objects. unless it may be the lawyers. But the Star calls its party to gether and extends the honor CD of the nomination for Delegate to Congress from Alaska to James Wickersham ia lawyer whose record is not much different from other lawyers. Rather inconsistent with the warcry. isn't it.

Through the courtesy of Delegate James Wickersham the Prospector has received four volumes of Abridg- ment-Message and Documents, for the years 1913 and 1914. Parties de- siring information on the questions covered by these volumes are well come to peruse them at the Prospec- tor office.
