IRRIGATION TALK, Lati Grars Listen to Earnist Appeals. The Chamber of Commerce Committee Contending Agtinit Inexplicable Hetitency. After somfe little delay, the meeting called by the chairman of the chamber of commerce committee was opened by the secretary, C. W. Bush.

Mr. DIggs, the president, having removed from Woodland. Mr Bush slated that the object of the meeting was to invite the attention of land-owners to the plans adopted by the committee, and to invite their co-operation with the committee to bring the plans to a successful culmination. He reported that thus far something less than 16,000 acres had been signed and promised, and that the scheme in his Judgment was not practicable unless 40,000 acres at least were subscribed. The committee could not account for the hesitancy displayed by land-owners.

The necessity for water to irrigate was understood and acknowledged ery land-owner who had been Interviewed. Every imaginable objection had been (the'committee believed successfully overcome, yet lands were.not offered. The: gentlemen of the committee had themselves threshed out every imaginable objection before the scheme was submitted to the public; and so successfully had they been met that those of the committee owning land had, almost without- 1 exception, given in all of'their lands iipon which water would run. When it is considered that among its members are some of the most cautious men in the county, this action of theirs with reference to their individual holdings should have some weight Mfc Bush briefly reheased some objections that had been offered and attempted 'to answer them. He said that it was proposed raise not less than $250,000 as "a starter, and that a pledge of 40,000 acres would secure this amount of money.

He was asked by someone In the audience it' J2EO.OOO would be enough to do the proposed work. 'It was answered that while nothing more than rough estimates had been made, the committee had been assured by men competent to say that this was more than enough. He called upon Mr. S. Montgomery to give his Judgment Of those present at the meeting, Mr.

Montgomery was best qualified to speak. Mr. Montgomery said that he would enter into a contract to put in a permanent dam and build 12 miles of ditch on each side of Cache creek for It was also said in answer to the question, "Would there be enough water to irrigate 40,000 acres?" that It had been decided by actual measurements by engineers that the flood waters of Cache creek would easily irrigate 2BIJ.OOO acres of land. The purpose of this organization is to use flood waters and other waters not appropriated, unless it should eventually transpire that the different ditch interests would he merged. The promoters hoped that such would be the case.

Flood waters were in abundance last year as late as the first day of June. The indications are that they could be used this year even longer. Many thoughtful men are now of the opinion that lands in our county should not be irrigated later than in the spring. Mr. Bush re-stated the benefits to accrue to those who entered their lands: The use of water during the ten years when payments of $1 per acre would be required, the perpetual use of water thereafter at the cost only of the expense to take it out of tlie creek, the first use of water, that la, its use ahead of any one not a stockholder, a share in the earnings of the corporation from the sale of water or of water rights, to be determined by the proportion of money paid by the individual to the whole amount paid in.

The $1 paid in is to be an investment for which certificates of stock will be issued, so In reality nothing is paid for water even from the beginning. The members of the committee on the north of Cache creek are becoming somewhat impatient as their neighbors have responded to their appeals and have quite generally entered their lands. Unless prompt action is taken by land-owners on this side of the creek they will, over there, undertake an Independent organization, which would be unfortunate, but perfectly justifiable. Land-owners were urged to hunt up some member of the committee and enter their lands with as little delay as possible. After a discussion the meeting adjourned.

It is Important that land-owners should carry this scheme to success for the reason that private capitalists are soliciting the opportunity to make the scheme a private enterprise and or ganlze a private corporation to utilise the waters of Cache creek. The plan proposed Is in direct Interest of the land-owner and the user of the water for Irrigation purposes, and if carried to a successful end will place the absolute control of the water in the hands of the land-owners, and when Mrs. Annie Kinkade Seeks a Divorce From Thomas 'TIS EASY TO FEEL GOOD.

The corporation can never pass into hands of individual capitalists. The plan proposed is in direct line with the recommendations of President Roosevelt and the departments of Interior and agriculture; and those In charge of tho enterprise have reasonable assurance that when the people along Cache creek will seek to and Will apply, its waters directly to the land and make the rights to its use appurtenant thereto the national government will by legislation and appropriation aid In the storage of the waters of Cache creek for the purposes of irrigation and domestic use.

The press of the Pacific coast states have widely discussed this plan for general irrigation, and much interest is taken in the same. COURTHOUSE HEWS, W. N.
