CoIoNIzE THE LANDS

While not curtailing its enthusi
asm for the reclamation OF Oregon
lands by irrigation. the members Of
the executive committee and the
members OF the Oregon Irrigation
Congress- in session at Pendleton last
week manifested greater interest
in the colonization OF lands already
reclaimed.
This Is the secopd phase of the re-
clamation movement which has occu-
pied the attention OF Eastern Ore
gonians for many years. II is need
less TO say TO anyone In this section
OF the state that irrigation without
settlement is almost useless. but II
is necessary for the Irrigation Con-
gress TO impress this fact upon the
people on the westside where they
are not as oonseryant with the prob
lens OF Eastern oregon as they
should be.
The thing that impresses one from
this section ia the need OF making
the people now on irrigated lands
prosperous. That is task 10 which
the Congress will direct lts efforts
too. in conjunction with the officials
OF the Agricultural college and Fed
erai departments. To us II IN the
most important task. When the set
tiers on irrigated tracts are placed
upon the road to permanent prosper
ity II will be easy TO secure settlers,
and with tho demand for irrigated
lands increasing. the question OF re-
claiming moro lands can be attacked
with moro enthusiasm.

most certain that the Fair will be de-
feated In the up state districts, II
will carry so overwhelmingly in Port
land that the outcome is doubtful.
Everywhere over the state, II is
apparent, a realization has been
reached that Oregon has reached n
state Of single tax by the back door;
that real estate is taxed out OF
private hands; the limit has been
reached. That realization, perhaps,
more than anything else is causing
the legislators to pause. And for
that reason Il is believed here by
observers from outside OF Portland
that the Fair measure will not go
on the ballot with the sanction OF the
legislature. When this is printed
however, this prediction may prove
false, for there is no doubling the
fight that the Fair bunch is putting
up at Salem, but II they do win they
