OREGON CITY COURIER, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1906
DEPRIVED OF ONE ELEMENT.
Mr. Myers Says We Are Entitled to Air,
Water and Land.
OREGON CITY, Or., Oct. 25.
(Editor of the Conrier. ) The follow
ing editorial appeared iu The Ore
gonian of October 13:
"The decision of the United States
Oironit Court of Appeals, at Boise,
holding that the measure of a water
appropriator's right is the extent of
his benefloial ose, is in accordance
with he prevailing opinion of the
time. In every line of public enter
prise the dog-in-the-manger policy is
receiving littlo encouragement. This
is particularly true of railroads and
imilar corporations wnich servo the
pnblio and which frequently seek to
keep others from enjoying opportun
ities of which the? themselves make
no use. It may very fittingly be true
in the case of water utters who
appropriate that which they do not
own and cf which they have only
the right of use. The water of our
streams conies from the olouds and
fulls upon all the land. From a
thousand hills it is gathered into
brooks or it bursts forth from in
numerable springs. It is gathered
from no man's land, but flows over
the lands of many. Every man who
can pat it to beneficial use should
have the opportunity ; no mnn Bhould
be allowed to hold it in idleness or
insist upon its ruining to waste.
"In the case mentioned a power
company had constructed a dam to
j hold 10,000 second-foot of water, bot
i had ntili ?ed only 2100 feet. When an
irrigation enterprise sought to use
j part of the remainder the company
! sought an injunation Very properly
I the court hold that the power com
pany lias title to tne use or oniy so
much water as it has put to beneficial
use, and if it desires to acquire title to
the remainder of the 10,000 feet it
must put that quantity to use within
a reasonable time. The injunction
was retused and the power oompany
was told to acquire a right by due
diligenoe before it sought to enforce
one. The court would not be a party
to an effort to stifle enterprise. Tiie

"The doctrine upheld by the court
nt Boise is not new, but it is strength
ened by every such decision. The
time has pansed when a court can
acquire or retain a reputation for
wisdom and hold that one man enjoy
ing a public privilege oan retain liis
right to the exclusion of otlinrs with
out making use ot his right."
Let me say this editorial is not
anarchiBtio but decidedly Social
istic. Now to the readers of the
Conrier if the air and water should
be free, why shoulu the land not also
be free?
What I mean by free is that it
should be held only by parties that
would use it, or, in other words,
occupancy and use conld be the onl.t
title. Here are three elements which
people have to have to sustain life
land, water aud air. Why should we
be deprived of one of these and the
other two be free? We aon't want all
to speak at once, but would lib" to
have some one smarter than mysellf
to explain where we got our land
titles from.
Sooial'sm seems to be spreading in
this neighborhood. Everybody is
going to the road mneting next
Saturday at the Kedland sohool house
at 2 P. M. to vote a road tax.
