ROCKS AHEAD OF
IRRIBATIOn CODE
"Czarlike State Engineer"
'Feared No Reclamation
Service Is "Wanted.
(fit Journsl Leased Salem Wire.) '
Salem, Or Jan. SI. Rocks are ahead
of the passage of the Irrigation code,
Introduced In the senate yesterday by
Senator Miller and destined to make Us
appearance in the house the first of the
comins week. Around this, the most
complete piece of legislation before the
present legislature, will wage the bit
terest ngnt of the to days.
"We went no cxarllke state engineer,
says Senator Bingham. "you can say
for me that we will draw the teeth of
the dragon in the senate. . ...
, Merrymas's Opinion.. .;, : Q :
"We want no reclamation service in
our irrigation business,' is the opinion
of Senator Werryman, chairman of the
committee. Senator Parrlsh has something-of
-th same idea.
In the house the committee Is more
friendly and It la hoped to send tbe
measure through here without much
trouble.
The Irrigation code, now In the sen
ate, Is an exhaustive measure. It puts
the power or determining water rignts
in toe hands of a commission consist
ins of the state engineer and two com
missioners, one from thn eastern Oregon
district, another from the western dis
trict. The Cascade range Is the divid
ing line and any complaint or water
question may be determined bv the state
engineer and one commissioner at a
meeting called on three days' notice.
Appeal may be made from this decision
to the -circuit court and on to the su
preme court, which baa final Jurisdic
tion. " .
. ooae Biu Euecurs,
This commission Is to adjudicate
rights and apportion wster supply to
users.
The nresent code bill Is simpler yet
more effective than that defeated two
years ago. Much of the machinery has
been taken out. The state engineer Is
still at the bead of the Irrigation and
power work of the state. He is the Im
mediate head and general manager of
the application of tue water laws or me
state.
In the former bill he was practically
supreme In power, as there was but
little opportunity to appeal. That is
changed In the present bill and its
friends feel confident all objections may
be met. .
Jltarhanrs Bill.
Senator Blnorham has no irrigation
hill of his own and is more friendly to
it than to. the code. Senator Merryman
and Senator Parrlsh are against the
reclamation service having any hand in
irrigation matters in the state. Senator
Miller, sponsor for the bill, and Senator
Beach are favorable It. .
Preparations are Jjelntt made for an
exhaustive discussion of the bill when
t comet ud for consideration. It will
be considered in open session by the
senate committee ana at tnese sessions
all those interested in the bill will be
invited to state their views. The house
committee favors the measure and the
house sentiment seems to be with It,
but It mav be killed or mangled In the

water legislation, but what kind Is in

Naturally we wish to deeply impress you with the extraordinary bargains given during this sale, but
when it comes to matching a 40, 50, or 60 per cent cut,ras advertised by others who" pay rent
we are up against-it, because our Furniture is not priced sufficiently high to stand a cut exceeding

PILOTAGE BILL
HEEDS ALTERING
(Bj Joarnal tate4 Si 1 era Wir.) ,
Portland vllotago ibill. as drawn, seems
to need radical changes. Unless It is
changed and redrafted there will be no
legislation for the relief of the Port of
Portland commission and the control of
the river pilotage by that organisation.
The bill waa drafted at tbe reauest
of the Port -of Portland and the trans
portation commission of the chamber of
commerce.- It gives into the control of
the Port of Portland the pilotage of
the lower river and is-of great necessity
for the effective handling of the ship
ping by the adequate control of the
pilotage -of the river.
The. bill as drafted, amends sections
39934002, 4006. 4011. 4015 and 4118
of the code. All of these sections and
more were repealed by the .Fort of
Portland act of 1S07. Since the bill
purports to amend sections that are re
pealed and are not laws, it has no ef-
rect. -
The defect, was noted by the commit
tee on commerce and the bill is being
held . pending: adequate amendment or
redrafting. J. Couch Flanders and oth
ers interested will appear before the
commerce committee and the Multno
mah delegation on Tuesday next and
try to straighten out the tangle.
