Oh aoitk, fc mail or earrier. .. .tO.SO On year, by mail OUR WEALTH OF POWER A booklet of .interest to evoryonoo in Oregon is the re port of the Oregon conservation commission just publish ed, of which more extended notice is made in the news col umns. - The pamphlet is one of the results of the congress of governors inaugurated by President Roosevelt last spring for the conservation of the natural resources of the country. "Each river system, from its headwater in the forest to its mouth on the coast, is a single unit and must be treat ed as such,' said the president, and the booklet carries out this spirit as well as the "declaration" of the governors at tin? "While House conference. "Sources of national wealth exist for the benefit of the people and monopoly thereof should not be tolerated." The report is of especial interest to people of the Rogue River valley, as it gives an accurate estimate of the water power going to waste in the streams of this section, esti mated at a total of exceeding .100,000 horse power, as against 2f0,000 horse power possible to generate at Niagara .rails, thus it is possible to generate power enough here to turn every factory wheel on the Pacific coast, light all the cities and run the railroads. The computations are based on an assumption of 80 per cent efficiency of water wheels. Only !)0 per cent of the tall in each section has been used. The average low water tlow lias been used. Of the possible .100,000 horse power, only .1000 has been developed, just one per cent, and yet this is suffii lioiit to Jiglit all the towns, drive the factory wheels and operate the mines of this section. Statistics regarding water power and the laws gov erning water rights, irrigation systems projected, timber and other natural resources, are given in full in the report. OENTBAL POINT BREVITIES.
