Claiming to be the sole owner of all the
watr-pow6r of Willamette Falls, the
Portland Railway. T-lerht A Power Com
pany, o w n -r of the Ornon Olty looks.
demanded in 1899 Jl, 2)0. 000 for Its in
terest there, this slim representing not'
only the value of the looks, but also
of thn water-power drawn from, the
falls by the locks. This sum was al-
most lour times the value put on the
locks In that year by a special board of
United -fitates engineers. which ap
pralsed them at $310,500, including $35.-
000 for r'Kht of way.
At the same time the board estimated
that the cost of building new locks,
accorllnit to one projfct, would be
-14,0OO, or. according to another pro-
Ject( T431,.0i, botli without rislU of
way. At the present time the Govern
ment en KlnPprn in Portland, under
Colonel Roessler, estimate that new
locks would cost between 9550,000 and
JW.OOO without right of way. on- ac
count of the advanced cost of labor and
materlaln.-
That the rlfriit of way cost for new
locks would greatly swell the total cost
of building a new vnterway, Is evident.
Should the state condemn the present
locks, however, there Is reft Bon to be
lieve tht It could get poseBfllon of a
boat waterway over the falls consider
ably cheaper than by trying to force
the owners of the present locks to sell
" them, by threat of construct i npr " new
locks on the east side of the river. .
.Deciding Vote -Tomorrow.
The- bill of Representative Joneg, of
JolJt County, appropriating- $400,000 for
Tree looks at Oregon City, will .come up
In the House ' Wcdnosday' morning at
1 0 o'clock os a special order of busi
ness, for ftna passage. It gives to a
State .Board authority to condemn right
of way for new locks, but not to con
demn the present locks.
The question of water ownership Is
n n Important one. - since, even if -the
state should acquire the present locks.
the electric company, possessing the
water, might, not supply all the water
needed for navigation at low - stages
of the river. . It is the opinion of United
States officials that the electric com
pany 1 cannot take water needed for
navigation -uses, even though it claims
the sole ownership of all the water
power. , . ,
In November, . 1902, a special Board
of United States Engineers reported
that ownership of the present locks by
the LTnlted States, or construction of
new locks, "would not injure, in a ma
terial manner, the operations of the
manufacturing enterprises, now in op
eration or contemplated at the falls of
the -Willamette River." The board was
composed of Major John Ml 11 is. Cap
lain W. C. Langfltt and Lieutenant
Robert P. Johnston.
Company Demands Compensation.
The company Insists, however, that
as the locks draw on its water-power,
it should be compensated for the use
of the water needed for operating the
locks, should the United States acquire
the present locks or build new ones.
In November, 189!). a special Board
of Knglneers reported on the actual
value of the existing locks and the
cost of building- new locks. It recom-
mended that the $1,200,000 price be not
paid. The -board was composed of
Major W. H". Heuer. Captain W. C.
iAngfltt and Captain William W. Harts.
Its report in part follows:
Since completion, the ownership of these
locks and acranory property has passed
thrmifrh several hands and after various at
tempts st more or less ueeetftil operation.
PR used Into the hands of the Portland General
Electric Company about seven years ago (1802).
This company claims the present ownership.
It claims to have acquired by its original
purchase, and otherwise since, ownership to
both sides of the river for a long distance
($aid to be several miles), both above and
below the fall! on the west side (the canal
slde and on the east side, to own from
Orfon City, a short distance below the falls,
up to several miles above. By virtue of this
ownership, it also claims exclusive right to
the wm of all the water of the river at this
place for power, including what is needed for
its canal.
The claim of the company Is thus set
' forth by its attorney, F. V. Holman,
written In to H. W, Goode, then
general manager:
The Portland General Klectric Company de
rived its right to the water flowing in the
Willamette- River and the iwe thereof from
Its ownership of the lands on each side of
the rlvw, at and abo e the falls, on the
west side of the river, to the meander line
of the river. ... So tho Portland General
Electric Company has exclusive right to the
water at. above and below tho falls, by reason
of Its ownership of the lands on each side of
the river and therefore to the middle of the
thread of the stream.- . . . On, the con
demnation proceedings it (United fUatett) would
be compelled to pay not only what the land
Is worth, but also what the right to use the
water Is worth, to the Portland General Elec
tric Company, as the owner of the land and
the water right.
Intakes Deplete Canal.
The report of -the United States En
gineers continues:
The Intakes for the water power for the
factories below the General Electric Oom-
Vany'a plant are directly on the canal and so
much waiter Ik taken that at low-nater stagrec
boats have difficulty In passing in and. out
of the upper entrance.
This water power is considered by far the
mest Important property claimed by the Port
land Oeneral Fllertrlc Company. It amounts
to Trom OVOOO to ttO.OOO horMpowrr t the
ordinary- low stagej and Is. on account of the
formation of the hanks, easily adaptable to
commercial purposes.

Mr. Hall's opinion was the same as
that of other TTnlted States officials and
of engineers, nnd la held also by Gov
ernor .Chamberlain of Oregon. In part
It Is is follows:
Upon the accession of the territory of Ore

Cost of Duplicate Knocks.
The report of the engineers continues;
A survey was made for the board In Au-
aust. ISua. by X. . B. Oaden. United States
A mn Intent Enginee r. to determine the
amount o.f work and material necessary to
duplicate , the locks at the present day.
From the facta obtained on this survey, the
board finds that to put the locks In good,
serviceable "condition. approximating: that
at the time of construction, "would require
an expenditure of about f $38,800, . . .
and that the cost of original construction
at present prices, "or 'to build the locks
anew at the present time, in as wood con
dition as was the original construction,
-would require $314,300, not including ihe
right of way. - '
To determine the present value of the
locks on the basts of cost of construction,
we must therefore deduct the cost of needed
repairs, leaving the present value $273,500.
To this should be added the original coat
of rla-ht of war, reported to be about $33.
OOO. making- the present value S3 10.5OO.
In 1893 a committee of the Oregron leg
islature, Investigating what the cost of
the locks had been, reported:
-As nearly as can be ascertained now. the
cost of the riirht of way and tho incidental
expenditures brought the total cost ot the
improvement up to about $450,000. The es-
tl mates of cost of construction range from

Wliat Company Offered.
The president of the Portland General
Electric Company, p. F. Morey, under date
of September U 189ft, offered to sell to the
Oovernment the canal and locks alone for
1. 200. OOO. It Is understood from conver
sation with . the general ma.na.fr er of this
company. Mr. Goode, that this offer includes
tjie transfer of a narrow strip of land along
each side of the canal for building", etc..
the separation by a concrete wall of the
water-power flume from the canal, aiul a
guarantee to supply sufficient water at all
times for navigation, If uch an offer could
he accepted. It would Involve relying for
the' future on this company to keep up Its
dam In good condition, so that sufficient
water should be available In the upper pool
at all times.
It would not permit the United States to
modify In any .way the dam or other ac
cessories should such modifications be need
ed for navlRatlon. it would also place, to
a certain extent, the discretion with "the
company, Instead of with .the United States,
as to how much water Is necessary for
boats, fuch a condition would probably be
a constant source of complaiilt.
Our method to determine the present
value of the locks, from a business stand
point, is to capitalize the earning power.
-In the case of the locks on the Monona-a-hela
River, the average of the net earn
ings for -a period of years was capitalized
at 5 per cent to determine one estlmate.of
their value.
The average annual net profit for tolls
for the past" five years (Orefcon City locka
would be 21.0.7. which, capitalised at 5
per cent, amounts to $421,147, or. in round
numbers, $421,000..
Another method of obtaining their value
Is to deduct the cost of repairs necessary
to put them in as arood condition as when
first built, from the cost of original con
struction, computed at present prices for
labor and materials. As stated above, this
fixes the present value at $273,500. To this
should be added, however, the cost of rla-ht
of way, about S .15.000, making the present
value about $S10,."iOO.
Further, the price to be paid by the Uni
ted States for the old locks and canal
should not be In excess of what a new canal
with new locks of equal capacity can be
built for. at or near the same place. The
board estimates that such new locks and
canal can he built around the falls, on the
uuml oiuuiiu inc lailS, Uil UlC
east side of the river, at elthej- of two lo
cations, for $40.000 and S4.,000. respee
tlvely. The estimate. S4rtVOOO. Is. there
fore, given as a limit of price which. In
the opinion of the board, should be paid
for the old locks.
The board cannot recommend the accept
ance of the offer of the Cortland General
Electric Company to sell the canal and
locks for $1,200,000, as this price is con
sidered excessive.
In the opinion of the board, the public

acquiring possession of the present canal
and locks unless the total cost for con
struction, right of way, water rights and
land necessary, including separation of the
canal from trie water-power intake, shall
not exceed approximately $456,000.
If satisfactory . terms of transfer of the
old canal and locks to the United States,
Including land,'' necessary water rights, etc..
cannot be obtained for this amount It is
recommended that the construction of a
new" system of locks and canal be under
taken by the Cleneral Government, practi

CONCEALED A JOKER
Farrell of Multnomah Detects
Danger in His Own Bill.
TIDELAIMD GRAB PLANNED j
Father of House Measure Takes
Steps to Kill It Schemers
Misrepresented Its Pur-
pose to ' Htm.
SALEM, Or.. Jan. 2R,-(6pecial.)-A
scheme of tideland owners to grab ac
cretions that by natural forces have been
Bflded to their holdings has been nipped
in tho bud by the House committee on
Federal relations, of which Farrell of
Multnomah Is chairman.
The grab was concealed in 'House bl 1 1
78, introduced by Farrell himself. . He
presented the bill at the request of in
dividuals who represented to him that It
came from the State Land Department.
Such was not tbe case, and Farrell. after
finding it out. was one of the first to
oppose the measure. ' '
The committee will recommend that
the accretions be sold by the state to
the contiguous owners, who shall nave
prior right. In buying them.
This will cut out the "joker." That the
bill . was i. "bad one' ' is clear after tho
exposure. It was framed for tbe bene
fit of special interests, which sought to
profit from Its passage. It Is in line
with a number of bills presented in both
bouses, curing defects In land titles.
which are faulty for reasons in many
cases unknown. As the effect of these
curative bills would not be perceived
untjl after their application, so that of the
"Joker" tideland bill would not be known
until then. So bold is the bill that it
contains an emergency clause. It reads
as follows:
' Where the "Joker Lay.
Section 1. . The accretions to all tidelanrts
and tlaVflats not adjacent to the shore or
connected to the shor In the waters of this
state. which- tldelnnd end tldcflats have
been heretofore sold, or may - hereafter be
sold to purchasers by the State of Oregon,
where the purchaser has, in good faith, actual
ly paid or does pay to the state the purchase
price, and the eame has been or shall e re
ceived by the state, are hereby granted and
confirmed to all such purchasers and Rranteei
Of the state, or to their lawful hclr or as
signs, together with all right, title, or -kiter-
est which the. state mlirht or could have in
anv of said accretion to said tideland. ' or
-tldenats. as t'i v mu. or do form to such
tldelands and tidfflats, and without furtber
compensation to the stata or purchase there
from.
Section 2. Whereap, doubt exists as to the
ownerahlp of accretions to tldelanda and tide-flats-
In the waters of this state, an emer
gency la hereby declared to exist, and this
Act shall take effect from and after Us ap
proval by the Governor.
The tideland bill is contrary to the
recommendation of . Governor Chamber
lain in his message to the Legislature.
The Governor recommended that all tide
lands be withdrawn from sale for a
period of ten years. The bill proposes
that accretions to tideland on islands be
given away. ' -
Briefly summed up, the bill would be
of advantage to persons who own or
wish to own fishing grounds in the
Lower Columbia River. t As everyone
knows, the sand islands In the Columbia
are continually changing their shape and
location. In one season an Island will
double its sfxe or a ew island will ap
pear. The islands are so low that they
are covered at each tide, and they are
therefore sold by the state as tideland.
The usual price ts about S2 an acre. If
the currents- of the river throw up
debris enough to form a small island at
low water, some one who makes a busi
ness of watching for such opportunities
flies an application for the purchase
of the land. For the fraction of an -acre
the state gets a very small sum. As
the island -Increases In size, the state
"sells" the additional land.
Effect of the "Joker."
Under the proposed bill, a man who
bought the land . that first appeared
would become the owner of all that
might be added to It. without paying the
state or any one else for the valuable
rights thus acquired. -
- The state has never received more
than a small fraction of the value of
the tldelands It has sold In the Colum
bia River. That these lands are valu
able Is shown by the eagerness with
which the title to them is secured and
the litigation that is undertaken in order

suit over the boundary line oetween Ore

question whether one state or the other
had the right to convey title to the
inland fishing: grounds In the river.
Governor Chamberlain's idea is that
If the state would withdraw these lands
from sale for ten years the changes in
the area of the islands would be suffi
cient to enable the state to offer for
sale a sufficient area to encourage bid-
derj, and the state could realize enough
to make the sale worth while. As It is,
the state Is selling; the land in small
tracts and seating: practically nothing
for it.

Astoria. Is here urging the passage of
the Farrell bill.

TACOMA, Wash..- Jan. 28. (Special.
Such was the crowd that flowed Into the
Courthouse for the purpose of hearing the
arguments in the Thompson murder trial
this afternoon, that let than half, could
be allowed into the court room.
Promptly at 2 o'clock General Vance
rose to make the opening argument for
the state. Except in a few isolated In
stances he seemed to have carefully
eliminated all attempts at rhetoric, and
during the course of his address harped
continually on "facts, facts, facts and
common sense." With ill concealed
sarcasm he drove in blow after blow at
the immense structure behind which the
defense Is taking shelter, ridiculed the
mass of metaphysical distinctions and
testimony of the physicians, and with
ruthless hand tore down the claims and
contention of the attorneys for the
prisoner. He cleverly brought the details
of the trial to a logical basis, followed It
to the end, held it up for ridicule and
then dropped It

Quality as well
Name
There are plenty of so-called Porto Rican
cigars, many of them made of tobacco
grown in the United States; these brands
will likely multiply in number since the re
cent increased cost of Porto Rican leaf.
That's why smokers everywhere should be
more particular than ever to get the genuine
Cigar 5 Cents
This is one cigar you can be sure is
Porto Rican in quality as well as in name,
made in Porto Rico, exclusively of Porto
Rican tobacco.
The JE2 Toyos now on the market are
finer in quality than ever, because of the
unusual excellence of this year's crop in
Porto Rico, only the best selections of
which are used to make the El Toro.
Made in a thoroughly modern factory,
with facilities and methods unequalled by
any other manufacturer, El Toro cigars are
unquestionably the finest 5 -cent cigars
Porto Rico has ever produced,
Every El Toro cigar is now banded
so yod can be sure you get the genuine.
It costs you only five cents, as always.
The El Toro is superior to any other cigar
sold at 5 cents.
