State Engineer John H. ' Lewis spent
Sunday in the City. Mr. Lewis ie work
ing hard to secure better and snore equh .
able laws regarding -the rights of water
in Oregon and has made the question a
matter of investigation for several- , years
and is striving in every way possible to
direct public attention, to. the crying need
of a comprehensive state law controling
the use of the water of our rivers.
In the following interview it is shown
just where the water use' stands bsfors
the law and the remedial measures pro
posed by the State Engineer. He says:
"The development of this' State and
especially this community is greatly retards
by the lack of definite water laws, and the
value of present water rights are greatly
lessened for lack - of proper standing in
law and protection by the state. - -.'"Records
of stream discharges to be of
value must be kept daily and throughout
several years as the water fluctuates
from if' to day- also with each season.
A reo rd .of thue to five ye re duration
is of the greatest value in designing works
for the use of water.
"It . is . next necessary to secure an
abstract .ot water '
amounrotwate whien must be let run
by to satisfy vested right below the pro
posed diversion, ; ,Thi an . only be
determined at present by bp ging suit
against all parties claiming the right to
the use of water from the stream and
securing a decree of court, as the present
water lews contain no penalty to eworce
compliance.' Only part of the vested
rights have posted and filed the required
notice, hd many of ths rights which are
speculative in character have -filed notices
which w haver beoome vested out ssrve
fto wumber tha title to water and prevent
its legitimate use. - -
A lawsuit is expansive auu uiun
the loss ef time. As there is a definite
limit to which the waters of each stream
can be put to, a beneficial use, investments
will become more huardous at this limit
i reached..' . If en abstract of actual vested
rights eonnot be bed careful measure
ment of stream flow will be of but little
value in the protection . of investments
The only way at present Ie to build your
ditch, divan water and take ohancea on a
court decision. If unfavorable, the money
invested is lost If favorable to the ditch
owner, he bae disturbed the peace of the
community and called each user of water
into sourt at considerable expense, when
e should have been attending to the irri
gatlon of hie orops. This decree is bind

New ditohes will be built, and the oper
ation is repeated until the community is
bankrupt V .
In Utah for example, all rights are
determined once for ill, beginning with
the streams mcst used.' Thereafter no
rights can be acquired without authority
of the state. Notice of the intended
diversion is published and protect allowed
where any one thinks his right will be
injured. The question 'of supply and rights
are carefully investigated and when the
permit is issued by the state it hae the
same standing in law as a patent to lands
issued by the Government. In an arid
country the patent to land is of insignifi
cant value compared to the water right
which is the foundation of its value. Set
tlement ie therefore retained by uncertain
water laws as now exist in this state.
' "An administrative system is necessary
A water master or policeman in each
community ' would distribute the water in
accordance with court decree a d future

recorded in order of priority . As streams

without feaf of annual oontest in the
courts. Where water is stored on a
stream channel thie officer measures (he
same and protects it to the point of diver
sion and vse. Appeals from the decisions
of the water master which qosti nothing
can be taken to the eourte and only the
person who thinks himself agrieved ie
disturbed. The watermatter ie subjeot to
removal for causl.
"Considerable opposition is had to the
change of present water laws principally
from those holding speculative rights or
franchisee without use. When these fran
chises become of increased value they
will be sold and not before. Fear ie had
lest a new law will create unending liti
gation. A This has not been the experience
or other etatea end ae pointed out we
are assured of unending litigation under
present laws where the limit of a et cam's
