So intense was theirinterest that mothers came to thepolls with their children, which theycould not leave at home, rather thanlose the opportunity.
One mother came into the votingplave of the Hist precinct of the sixthward, oarrying an infant in her arms,with another trnlHng at her skirls.Noting was a simple matter With her,for she marked her ticket in :\ Jiffy,with the infant still in her arms, andleft th» booth without confusion.This same Incident was duplicatedmany times in nearly every precinct

Days in Which to Raise Twen-ty-Six Million Dollars
SAYS WATER IS PENTIFULBUT ACTION IS ESSENTIAL
Cannot Ask People of Kittitas toWait on Their UndertakingEven If Thousands of AcresMust Remain Unimproved
Sixty flays in which to rajfe the$26,100,000 necessary fur the HifrhLine canal project Ik thf limit of timeallowed the Valley* of the YakimaWater I'sers' association. This timelimit w»h fixed Saturday by Secretary
of the Interior Kisiher after a confer-ence with the trustees of the associa-tion in which the fact! regarding theproject wii't presented.
"We are not at all discouraged,"said H. R. Scurider. vice president ofthe Water CNH 1 association, speak-ing afterwards of the tank put up tohim and his MSOCIatM by Secretary
Fisher. "Already we havt takenstep* to mnt the demand made oftiK. Of course we understand whatSecretary Fisher meant. He doeg notexpect uk to tome around in sixty

ktiMis. s<M« thp Paoe"KlttUan." said Mr. Kißher. in con-
versation with the high line trusteeshere, "ha» come to the front in theway of organization and has \u25a0•taredme that it has the money in sight.Can you meet it? There has neverbeen any qnstion that there Is suf-ficient water for both projects andthe Kittitas people fire prepared touse it. I mum not be asked to holdup their undertaking while plans arebeing- made here for the Yakima endof the work t Tnder ihe showing madeto me. however, 1 see no reason why
the department and the people of thisvalley and those of Kittitns cannot
work together for immediate actionTt in up to you gentlemen. 1 thinkyou should net busy at once and by
at once t mean now. this afternoon.Sixty days are as good a 8ninety ifyou start right in"
Conference 1* BriefSecretary Fisher's conversation
with the Water User.*' associationtook place at the rooms of the Com-mercial club here at 11:30 o'clockSaturday morning, Those who rep-resented the rush line were Messrs.Si udder. Johnson. Wiggins, Fruie.,HoagUnd. Tinker and Galloway. Mr.Scudder presented (he situanon. Thehltrh line survey, h? said, indicatesthat for the development of the coun-try included, water I* necessary fromthe three lakes, Kachess, Keechelusand Cle Elum Thi* water must be.brought through Dudley Canyon
where the physical conditions aresuch that there is no room for twocanals. The present high line sur-vey- of the Kluita* high line canalprovide! for water from tCaches* andKeecheluK only and not from CleElum.
Biff Phv»l<ul DifficultyOn account of the elevation of

parent for two reasons one of thembeing that »he reclamation service liasdiscovered a tif« re»ervnir cite in theTeauawa> which will provide, waterfor the 10,000 acre* lout under theOther plan and for «n additional 18,---0()o acrps Moreover, under 'he ron-Btructlon of the High Line canal asa whole ii waj Intended to furnishpower, from \u25a0 >irop in the canal inthe Moxee, to raise water for thescreaßp left out in the upper country.

FISHER WELL LIKEDBY YAKIMA PEOPLE,
Secretary of Interior to Be MuchMore Aggressive Than Was
Expected of Him
Secretary of the Interior Walter T<. IFisher wan a surprise and a delight
to the people of North Yaklma whowere fortunate enough Saturday tomeet him pprstona ll\. Thr impres-
sion he made was strongly fortifiedby that made by his two sons, intel-ligent, observant young men who havebeen traveling with their father andwho look more like his big, butyounger brothers. Perhaps it wouldbe better to nay that Secretary Fisher,though by no means boyish in ap-pearance, looks so youthful that it ishe that looks Ilka the brother Atany rate the Fishers are an interest-ing trio anil the young men, at the'rooms of the Commercial club Satur-day, took a great delight, bf did many
North Takuna people, in seeing; thesecretary at work. He Bets busy thevery first minute he was in NorthYakima when he ducked through thersir from his train to the shelter nfthe railroad station carrying thewaiting delegation of leading C'tr--,«ns
along with him. From that minutehe <las minuter of the situation. Therewas only one time throughout the day jthat the steering commitiee found it'necessary to gel to him. That waswhen lie got if. talking high line. IThen he staved with the conversation.
Thr government controls the pinr-
Bge. Mr. Bcudder said. and shouldmake siime effort to see that the workof development if dnne as a whole,for the good of the entire country,
and not in part in Kucti a manner a»to permanently exclude a portion ofthe acreage from development. Mr.Seudder's statement was supple-mented by a communication fromChristian Anderson, the engineer whosurveyed thr Hi«h Line project. MrAnderson pointed out thai thp storage
of the three lake* wiU Rive a total of;775.000 acre feet. In addition there iis 154.000 aci-p Feet stored in the]Bumping Lake. McAllister Meadows'and Pleasant valley area* and this is jreduced by ICIOO for the Cascadecanal The acreage to be watered hftigured at a total of 457.e00 divided asfollows: Kittitas, 67.000: High Line. !200.000; Tleton, 34 000; Sunnysiiie. j48.000; Waputo. 108.000. The Sun .nysirie \u25a0 ountry is entltlcil to a naturalflow from the rjver for .=>'_',ooo ac re»and the U'apato to natural flow for12,000 arres rf the Benton unit l»
watered by gravity from the Yakimari\er it will reduce by 190.008 aereethe area under the High line but ifwatered by po«er a* provided in theHigh Line plan*, with water from theColumbia river. no« wasted, it make*available lflo.oon acres under theHigh Line which otherwiae would re-main permanently idle. Thi« u»e ofthe entire acreage and of the. at pret-
erit, wane flow of the Columbia,i orrtes mighty close. Mr Anriemon•aid. to conservation of the nationaland natural resource*
would listen to the representations
mart" and promise consideration. In-•teart he put it up to the people her*to Ret busy add he made a time limitin order to get action. Hi* attentionwas called to the fact that a letterfrom the department received here acouple of weeks ago had promisedthe Water Users' association a year'stimp in which to prepare for the useof the stored water. Thia promise,he said, had been mads in his absenceand it might be ne.pssary to approach
the work from a different angle andin less time. Mr. Fisher was muchimpressed with the idea of tht KitM-mf people for the formation of a di»-trict and several times referred to it
as a method under which action can jbe obtained. An the Water users' have.a card index of the property ownershe thought in the formation of a dis-trict here action would be simple, andcalled attention to the fact that a 60per cent vote is sufficient to bind thedistrl't. "If" said tir. Fisher, "you
have private capital ready to take upthe bonds of this enterprise then yoursixty days in sufficient in which tomake your decisions and 1 cannot a«kthe people of Kitlitas to wait longerthan that time for definite informa-tion when they are ready to pro- 'ceed.'
Two Montlis Are AmpleMr. Fisher during the conversation
called attention to the imßth of timethe matter has hern in hand and <1c-dared that while he did not want to]appear as a captious critic he thought Ithat such progress had been made 'that the remaining work could be suf-lficiently attended to within th« next'two months. He called aitemion to!the fact that be hnd but recentlytaken office and until then had never,even heard of the project. He hadlooked into it and had marie up hismind to the extent to which he hadrevealed it. "but" he said "] maychange, my mind. 1 never hesitate tochange my mind if T flnd the facts tobe different. Two months, gentlemen'are ample." t
One of the points made at the gath-,ering was that there is no hostility in Iany way to the Kittitas undertaking jbut a strong feeling thai any develop-!ment should be as a unit and carriedout in such a way as to add the great-est possible area to the country atlarge and leave nothing permanentlyoverlooked because of the temporaryintarests of a section.
