Outlook Bright For
Umatilla Power Site

A conference Is being held in Port
land today relative to securing data
dealing with the proposed development
Of the Umatilla Rapids Power site This
conference is attended by a committee
Of Oregon business men and engineers
A government hydraulic engineer is
also in attendance to secure informa-
tion which will be placed before the
federal power commission.
This shows US that the series Of
meetings held in this part of the coun-
try last winter are now getting results
for US. The first meeting boosting the
development Of hydro-electric power
from the Umatilla rapids was held
in Umatilla January Goth. Other meet
ings were held in Pendleton and Walla
Walla.. The organization perfected at
those meetings is working hard to get
our case properly presented to the fed
eral power commission
The value to Boardman of this power
site lies in the fact that 1t will furnish
abundant, cheap power for irrigation,
transportation and manufacturing. Ev-
erywhere Industrial engineers are turn
ing toward hydro-electric plants as
solution Of their power difficulties. Just
as a line of great manufacturing towns
have appeared in New England where
there is a fall-line in all the rivers
there is bound to be great industrial
center at Umatilla, one of the greatest
water-power sites on the greatest river

NEWS FROM LEXINGTON

Last Friday and Saturday the Lex
ington high baseball team played Fossil
and Condor.
AT Condor our boys carried away
the victory by score of to 0. This
was a good game, being very closely
fought at all times. Many of the Con-
don fans said that this was one of the
best games that they had ever seen.
At Fossil the Lexington nine went
down to defeat by score of 13 to 16.
Hard hitting and many errors by both
caused the high score.
Several of the girls went with the
boys and all wish to say that they had
a very enjoyable trip. The Lexington
boys appreciate the good sportsmanship
of both teams played on this trip.
The Lexington boys are planning to
gain revenge on the Fossil boys when
they come to Lexington the latter part
of next week. All fans are assured of
good game, so don't forget to come.
The senior class is preparing for COM
mencement. The dates for this year are
Glass Night, May 10; Commencement,
May 90; and Baccalaureate, May 22.

REDUCTION IN PAY OF
TEACHERS IS FAVORED

In response to the call sent out last
week by the superintendent Of schools
there was n representative gathering
of officers and patrons of the various
school districts at the court house on
Saturday afternoon, and for more than
an hour there was some pretty lively
discussion. Because of the general
downward tendency in the production
of farm and ranch and the very poor
market conditions, the majority of the
speakers were favorable to reduction
in the pay scale for teachers. At the
meeting of the school board convention
in February, resolution was adopt
ed to the effect that the minimum wage
for teachers in Morrow county be plac-
ed at $1,000 Since that time, however,
1t has dawned upon the taxpayers OF
the county that they are being hit
mighty heavy, so they are now out to
trim on every corner and make cuts all
down the line wherever possible. There
was much good argument presented
why the scale of wages for teachers
should be lowered, and on the other
hand several speakers were opposed to
this, and took up the argument for
sustaining the salary scale and max
inE demands for higher efficiency on the
part of teachers that the standard Of
education in the schools might be thus
better maintained and improved. It
was an interesting meeting and the
question of what the minimum wage

CEMETERY HILL ROAD
IS NICELY GRAVELLED.
Holiday ON Tuesday. Proclaimed by
Results.-The Response Is Generous.

To put the road leading to the Gem
etery in the right kind of condition to
be practically safe in all conditions OF
weatherit was decided the best thing
to do was to give II a good covering
Of gravel. For many months various
Interested citizens of the city and com
munity had been discussing improve
ments to this road: some thought II
should be relocated in order that there
would not be so steep a pull up to the
graveyard, while others believed that
the present grade could be put in Just
as good condition as any new road that
might be built. and then there was the
added expense OF getting place to put
the new road and of building II after
this place was secured, So, after run
ming over the different approaches to
the cemetery and sizing up the whole
situation, the plan to gravel the present
road was adopted.
To get this work done. Mayor Noble
called holiday for, last Tuesday, and
the response was very generous, The
stores and other places of business clos
ed promptly at half past eight in the
morning and remained closed until s
in the evening. Numerous teams and
wagons were provided and several
trucks were on the job, these to trans
fer the gravel from the pits to the road,
where there was big crew of men
with shovels and rakes to do the
spreading. The greater part of the
gravel was secured from the mouth Of
the draw just east Of the Mccullough
residence and adjoining the city rock
pit Here there was n fine gang OF fell
lows to fill the wagons and the entire
job was pulled off as matter of play
rather than work. It was necessary,
however to call for volunteers for an
other half day on Wednesday. as the
job was just little bigger than at
first contemplated, and to this second
call there was also a generous response
and the work has been completed to the
entire satisfaction OF all

JUDGE PHELPS SET
Tiles JOHN DAY CASE
Minor and Wheelhouse TO BE seated as
Duly Elected Directors, Five Days
Being Given to Old Members In which
to Retire.

For the present, at least the ques-
tion Of who was elected directors last
January in the John Day Irrigation
district, has been settled by the iude-
ment rendered Friday last by Judge
Phelps. which declares c. A. Minor and
Arthur Wheelhouse to have been duly
elected and gives the board Of dlrec-
tors five days to induct them into office
An appeal we understand has been
filed by the attorneys for the district.
but whether It will go any further than
this, we are not fully informed 1t
seems to be understood, however, that
the directors are not disposed to fght
this case further. and are relieved 10
have the matter settled and out of the
way.
This case, growing out Of the cleo
tlon in January last. when c. c. Clark
and Edward Rietmann were nominated
by being duly placed on the ballot, and
on election day the names of c. A. Min
or and Arthur Wheelhouse were writ
ten in, thus raising the question as to
their having been properly and legally
lDHlildtSu uHueI AIlS ldN per tanning "
elections in irrigation districts, has
caused considerable interest and dis
cussion.
The opinion Of Judge Phelps on the
question was given at the time he over
ruled the demurrer filed in the case
by the attorneys for the district, and
this judgment is entered in accordance
with that opinion.
The tribulations Of the district are
not yet over, however, as the suit Of
the Northern Pacific Railway and num-
erous land owners within the district,
against the board of directors, ct al.
is to be disposed of, and will doubtless
be long drawn out. Just what effect
this will finally have on the success
of the reclamation undertaking re-
mains to be seen. 1t is certainly to
be hoped that the final disposition of
these questions will not impair the sue
cess Of the project and that in due time
the great scheme of reclaiming the de-
sert lands of the counties of Gillian,
Morrow and Umatilla will be adopted
by the government.

GOVERNMENT TRAPPERS
ARE VERY SUCCESSFUL

Morrow County Farm Bureau News)
The sheep committee Of the Morrow
County Farm Bureau met in the Coun-
ty Agents office on the 16th OF this
month to consider the reports of the
trappers who have been operating un-
der the cooperative plan in Morrow
county. In the whole state Of Oregon
there are twenty trappers at work in
cluding those at work in Morrow coun-
ty. That is about one for every two
counties. Several counties are abso-
lutely unable to get trappers at all
in spite OF great damages which are
being done. The state Of Oregon for
the last two years has appropriated
$3.50 dollars per year to carry on this
work, while the federal government Is
spending $4,000. 1t is easy to see then
that these trappers are paid by the
federal government practically entire
ly. In many states the counties are du-
plicating the amount of money spent
by the federal government in that ter
ritory. The trappers operating in Nor
row county due to this cooperative
effort have accounted for 164 coyotes
during February and March. This Is
at an expense to the sheepmen Of $3.50
for these two months. This Is prac-
tically soc apiece for getting these
coyotes killed, The entire cost to the
county sheepmen included, is s2s0.00.
or s16O apiece for the coyotes, while
under the bounty system figuring that
the average bounty paid on these coy
otes was $500 per head, bounty rang
ing from SO to IS, the cost would have
been for state and county s6SOo0. This
is a very decided saving to everybody
concerned as this federal money would
otherwise have been spent in some
other state II 1t had not been for the
cooperation extended by this county.
This is one case undoubtedly where the
trappers has been a tremendous saving
to the county. II 1t can be continued
on this basis the county will have
saved a very decided amount by the
end of the year. Not only Is this saw
ing In money but the coyotes are
caught where they are doing the dam
age. One coyote close to a sheep camp
is worth a dozen caught out in the
mountains somewhere where a bounty
trapper would probably get them.
The committee decided to continue
the campaign until the first OF July
and possibly longer. Because Of the
general success It was decided to ask
the sheepmen all over the county to
cooperate In this payment and carry
on the campaign to the first of July
and It was decided to levy an assess
ment of &c per head on all the sheep
in the county This assessment, Of
course is voluntary but 1t is hoped that
every sheepman will pay his part and
no doubt but what he will It is proba-
hle that the trappers will operate upon
the national forest during the summer
on government pay although
this will be protection to local men

LEGION
PLANS To BUILD
Heppner Post No. ~ Has Luncheon
Friday Evening, and Preliminary
Steps Taken.-Mueh Activity In store
for Post.

Heppner Post No. ST. American Le-
, gion, is planning the erection Of a fine
concrete building in Heppner the con-
ing fall This was the decision reacn-
ed at luncheon held in Patrick hotter
dining room Friday evening. The lun-
cheon had been arranged to bring the
members of the post together that sew
eral matters Of importance could be
taken care Of
Realizing that Heppner needs build
ing which will provide for a reading
room, auditorium, gymnasium, and 9TH
er features looking to the comfort and
entertainment not only of the ex-ser-
older men, and boys Of the town, the
Legion boys have employed an architect
to draw plans for a building which they
believe will fill the bill for many years
to come. Negotiations are now under
way, which, If put through, will put
the Legion in possession of finely To-
Gated lot near the center Of town
At the luncheon Friday evening a
committee was appointed to investigate
the best plans for raising the money
necessary to construct the building,
about $500 being needed This commit
tee is expected to work out a plan
which will not make the raising of
the money hardship on anyone. In
fact the Legion expects TO have a large
part Of it raised within its own mem
bership and by its own efforts, before
the summer Is over.
There will be carnival in Heppner
the latter part of May, coming under
the auspices of Heppner Post. This
will be very strong attraction and
the boys are expecting to have good
crowds in attendance every evening.
more definite announcement will be
made next week concerning this.
Heppner Post is becoming one of the
strongest organizations in Heppner and
its growth is just commencing With a
membership of about 49, an intensive
membership campaign is being put on
and it is expected the membership will
be doubled in a few weeks.
All ex-service men Of the territory
Immediately tributary to Heppner are
asked to get in touch with the post. Tie
Legion needs every man it is possible
to get and every ex-service man needs
