A letter to the editor explains Grand Ronde Reservoir project aims to store flood waters for irrigation in the Grande Ronde valley. It details the proposed dam near Meadow Creek, a $400000 expenditure, a $100000 corporate bond plan, and a $20 per acre water price with $1 maintenance. The contract creates a lien on subscribed land and guarantees water deliveries to irrigate up to 25 000 acres with annual charges due after use. It discusses water rights as appurtenant to land and possible use on other parcels, endorsing the fairness and security of the contract and urging widespread subscription. Also included are ordinance notices, tax levies, and final settlement notices from La Grande, Oregon.
