Hungute Secures Elir' bj Un the Hirer, which He will Improve. In the county clsrk's oflice Monday ; Stephen A. D. Huugate fiied a plat of Via Molalla river (rum a point in section 14, township 2 south, ran ire 3 eaflt lo its mouth, where it empties into the Wil ldUiette, a dixtauce of about 35 miles. The point of beginning is 15 miles south. east of Wilhoit Springs. Hungate, who is a surveyor and has done considerab'e work for the government, declares his pu'pce to secure to himself, and bis successors in intarent, the exclusive right to regulate, mange and control the lliating, trituspurtaiion and booming ot ' log, lumber, timber, piling and wood upon the Molalla river in Clackamas county, wliich is declared to be an un navigable stream for commercial purpo ses. It ia his puriose to proceed within the terms of the law to improve the river by the erection, construction and maiiitainance as such d ms as may be necfaiiry to the cleaning out of the river and removing all drifts and ob structions which may interfere with its use for the purpose intended, the straightening, widening and deepening of the channel wherever it is necessary, the construction and maiutainance of such booms as may be necessary, or convenient and Hie doing of such other work and maintaining such other struc tures i,d erections on or in the river as I may be necessary to put and keep the Btmo in such condition that logs, lum ber and timber, as well a wood and piling may lie freely fljated and trans ported down the same to the extent of tlie capacity of the river. Negotiations are now in progress to incorporate a company to utilize the 'river, which runs through immense jbxlies of fine timber. Tributary to it ; Are Pudding river, Milk creek, Ciuwley ' creek, Pine creek and the middle and j north forks of the Molalla. The hills uf I ho Molalla are situated at the mouth cf Pine creek. They are e'gbt feet high a id would supply a large amount if l water power. The width of the stream at this point is 100 feet and the depth four feet. H THE 1001 ACT (O.NSTircriOML Laws are often enacted by one legisla tures, only to be declared unconstituti onal after individuals or associations have availed themselves of the appaient benefits and have expended much capital and labor under the same. According to the concencus of opinion of many lawyers, such seems to be the probable fate of the act passed by our legislature, entitled "au act authorizing the county courts of tbe several toantiei of this Mate to declare nnnavmable (reams highways for the purpose of floating Ir.gs and timbers and provide for the improvement and nse of tbe uae of the tame." Much adverse criticism and comment is heard in reward to parties acquiring entire control of streams, as the Clacka mas and the Molalla. Papers have been filed with the county clerk to obtain control of these stream, and if tbe law is upheld by the supreme court many rights will be taken from the public and from the riparian owners. Monday when papers were filed in regard to the Molalla river, an attorney remarked that its constitutionally was not yet settled, arid among others, gave the following as reasons for the belief "That the act is not embraced in the the lule, which is required, Const. Art IV Sec. 20. The entire act is outside the title, no discretion or power ia givau to courts to do anything as expressed in the title. It is also partial legislation. Throughout the entire act individuals, association or corporations are given the rii(ht to acquire control of the stream by following the act; the right to pur chase from the riparian owner any rinhls to the soil is also granted to them, but the right lo condemn property when the same cannot be purchased is given corporation, and to corporations only. This ia clearly axaiiist the spirit of our our institutions.' "The last section of the act provide for the way in which streams may be declared unnavigable for the purpose of this act; streams which are not used for general commercial purposes, aie here in clasred as such, and be they never navigable, but because at this time the country may be undeveloped and the streams net used, posterity is to be cheated by Some corporation acquiring exclusive control. The attempt of the legistatuie to do this is a clear subeer viance of the rights of the public and rights of riparian owners. "It ia hoped that aome law not savor ing of the bad features of this act and one under which tbe limber of unnavi gable streams may be marketed may be passed in the near future."

If IS A 10XVEME.1T STRUCTURE Senator B ewnell Made IMirat TJ Speech and Announced III Support of Import tut MfBtnres The new public h til at Beaver Creek was dedicated last night. This building replaces tbe hall which was burned about one yeai ago. It is a commodious structure, with dinin--hall, kitchen, and dresaing-rooin conveniently attached, and will be osed on all public occasions. Owing to the in:Vmfnt we ither the attendance was not large, but thote preaent manifested great interest in the dedication speech of State Senator George C. Brownell, w ho pointed out the benefit tj be derived from tbe hall by the young men The speaker ad dressed his remark to the younger gen eration and gave them sterling adiice. He spoke of his struggles in early life, of the difficulties he had to overcome, and of the opportunities which might be em braced by the young men of tbe present day. His talk drifted into politics and he briefly reviewed the measures that had been pased for the benefit of ihe working clais and the farmer by the last legislature. Senator Brownell announced himself strongly in favor of the referendum.. He said that the placing of tbil law onr the statute books would give tiie people--a voice in legislation and this is some thing to which they are justly entitled. Continuing, the speaker said : "There being so much dissatisfaction among the taxpayers of this county in regard to the hiring cf deputies by county officers under our present system that, if I am returned to the state senate r I prooee introducing a bill and passing it into a law of this state, if within my power, lo take absolutely out ol the bands of all and any county offi 'ers, the right to appoint more than one deputy and then only when absolutely neces- . sary, and also to take il oat of the power of the county court to pay any county deputy. "I shall have the law in such a shape that before any county officer can em ploy additional deputies, or additional clerical aid, that the county officer, who ever be may be, shall file a petition under oath, before tbe judge of the county or circuit court, setting forth in said petition the fact that be needs addi tional clerical hire, w hy he needs it and setting forth the reasons, in detail, so that the taxpayers ot this county can know fully all the reasons therefore; set ting forth also the lengtb of time such clerical hire i needed and what compen sation he is to receive. In my judgment this method will shut ctl the expenses and be fair and just to the county offi cers and the people as well. "I shall also favor a law creating pre cinct assessors, believing this will result in a better and fairer assessment of property than posiibly can be obtained under the present system. "I shall also favor and endeavor lo es tablish three commissioners districts in Clackamas County, in such a way as to give each district representation, which commissioners would have genera! juris (Mvtinn over the whole county; this would be no more than justice to the people living in 0.we:o, Pleasant Hill, Stafford and what is known as the west side of the r.ver. "I shall also favor an eiht hour laiv as constituting a day's work, in the mills and factories of this state, embodying in such law, that if a man is compelled to work more than eight bonis, he shall bo paid a prr p irtion ite (urn per hour lor every hour over the eight hours that he has to work.
