Grants Pubs., Or., Jan. 20.
Kditor Tribune:
In your issue of the ISth inst. is an (
interview with State Kngineer Lewis
that is a repetition of n goodly lot of
I eiicoiiibe that has been published jo
extriishely over this state, that I wish j
you would find space for this explana-j
tion. Mr. Lewis snys:
"If an irrigation company was J
formed to divert the surplus waters of i
the upper Kogue river on to the fertile!
valley near Medford, it would doubt
less be confronted with threatened lit i-
gatioti by the power interests at Gold
Iiav. If this companv has tmv rights!
thev should be definitely recorded and
protected by the state. If they have
not a right to the entire flow of Kogue
irr the public is entitled to know the
ct. ' '
V.'hv not When people have expend
ed half a million dollars in a power
plant what kind of idiots would they
be to let s.-nie other people take the
water out of the stream to their injury
a ud loss .' V. tii Mr. Lewis would not
d- that. No man .-an be honestly de
iin-d to do so. and stuh criticism is
i:np'asi. fial-Ie mid n n w arra iiled. If the
pnblii- ..r anv one ibires to know the
1 h' of tin coin ;a ny owning the
r plant they can easily ascertain
sa 'lie bv learning the atnmin t of
rigation bill that would have been the
greatest imposition on the people of Or
egon that was ever enacted, and by se
curing the indorsements of a few good
men were about to force it through the
legislature. The bill contained uncon
stitutional provisions that even a lav
man should be ashamed to urge. The
first one was a declaration declaring all
unappropriated water to be public. The
gentlemen who were urging the meas
ure imagined by sm-h prnvi-dori that
the right of riparian owners on streams
where they might be living as land own
ers for 5t) years could be thus abol
ished. In vain we st rived to convince
them that the right of a riparian owner
was a property right and might be
very valuable for power, and that un
der the constitution could be taken
from the owner for a public purpose
only and for a just componsat ion. The
gentlemen were d. af to nil entreaties.
"Take the wh.de bill or none of it,'
was their slogan. We were t
.mi. iing. now oi tuo supreme
court, came down and be annihilated.;
Mr. King came and the first informa-
tion he gave them was that such a pro- '
vision was unconstitutional ami should I
be stricken out, and out it went.. This!
was all that the power .'Minnanv at Gold ;
Kay had ask.., and about all any other
similar company had requested. " There
were other provisions of the bill that
were indeed onerous. It provided for
a beau roe rat ic administration of water
rights. For instance, if a dispute arose
between different cdaimants it was
brought first to u water bailiff. From
the bailiff's decision an appeal could
be taken to the water commissioner,
and from his decision the appeal must
be taken to the state engineer, whose
office is at Salem. From there it
would go to the circuit court of the
county where the ditch was situated.
A young man might live long enough
to get it to the supreme court. This
practice would have made the state en
gineer the head of nn important bureau,
which would have called for assistants
and legal advisers and clerks numer
ous, but it would be quite expensive.
What reason there was in failing to pro
vide for a direct appeal from the bailiff
to the court no sane man can deter
mine. Another provision of the original bill
required the attorney-general to com
mence suits in the name of the state to
determine the rights of claimants of
water on all the streams in the state.
On Kogue river ami tributaries there
are over o(K) users of water. If this
bill had passed they would alt have
been brought into court and required
to litigate against each other, although
there was no trouble between them.
1 could not comprehend the reason for
this provision until a wise gent
who was supporting the measure I
his hand. He told me that he n9
associates had liin.imo acres nil
in -.UM.-in iiegoii miner ciiiiiriiv .
that if this act passed the attorn' J
oral would be required to litigaf
water rights, and with a decree ip
court showing the amount of unap
propriated and the amount avails
could file o ait and go east n?H
bonds enough t buy the land tfUt
water on it and ch an up a ' V?
money. ' '
I believe Oregon needs a
water law and in irrigation disflj
should be administrative, but tiihl
up a bureau with a chief at Sulfbo
had to pass upon all disputes!
the courts cuuhl hear them. or r
kre
quire the attorney general to h
pie into court to settle water
whether any one wanted to irrj
not, and to benefit promot
to supersede the constitution 1;
lative enactment, was a ridieuJ
fort to supply the existing neefven
if oppo ; by owners of poweJntfl.
It an irrigation law is not eim
office of state engineer could
abolished. It is now chiefly .
tal. 1 he collection of data abJ
fall and irrigation is hardlv a
for its continuance. t
