It Is not likely that the home rulo bill will be Introduced this year unless an autumn session la held for that ape cl.il purpose. J6hn Redmond, leader of the Irish contingent, has sufficient power to force the hand of the gov ernment and make it introduce the bill at the earliest possible moment, but as It la useless to attempt to do so until the veto bill has crippled the lorda, it la not likely that he will press for Its introduction before next year.

The defendant claimed that while the Initiative amend ment passed in 19jD2 provided that legis lation referred to tho people the refer endum should beoome law Immediately upon receiving a majority of votes, since there was no mention as to when Initiative measures were to become a law, they followed the legislative stat ute requiring the governor to proclaim them a law officially before they could be placed in effect In his opinion Judge Bean said In part: "'In my Judgment it is not within the power of the legislature to regulate the matter by general law. The Initiative power reserved to the people Is a con stitutional right vested in them by the fundamental law of the state, to be exercised Independent of the legisla tive assembly.' If the legislature may lawfully postpone the taking effect of the lnitatlve measure until the vote has been canvassed, and the governor's proc lamation issued, or for any other length or time, the right reserved to the peo ple to propose or adopt laws is not In dependent' of but subservient to the llg lslature, and If the legislature may postpone the faking effect of such a law at all, It may do so for any length of time and thus thwart the will of the people and render nugatory the consti tutional provision reserving to tnem the right to propose and adopt laws. The canvass of the vote and the proclama tion of the governor are only official and authoritative evidence of the result of the election and are not made neces sity to the enactment of the law itself. The law Is adopted or rejected at the time the vote is cast and not when tha official canvass is made. "It may be suggested that under thin view a law may In fact be in force without those affected thereby belnp aware of It, but this may be, and often Is true of acts of congress and other lawmaking bodies which take effect from and. after the date of their pas sage."

They had been seated," and then followed an interval while Blnck Rod summoned members of the house of commons. Lord Lore burn, lord high chancellor, then ap proached the throne and on bended knee handed hla majesty a copy of the speech. The king put hla cocked hat on his head, and while seated read the speech in a loud, clear tone, amid intense si lence. At the conclusion of the speech the king rose, and, giving his hand to the queen, descended the throrle and the ceremony came to an end. Unusual haate was shown by those present to leave the precincts of the chamber, as if anxious to dlscusa the effects of the official pronouncement. The kings address waa brief, touch ing only upon questions coming up be fore the present session of parliament. Among the bills mentioned were the ve to bill, workmen's insurance, the pay ment of the members of the house of commons,' the possible amendment of the aliens act and the proposed meas ure to prevent the entry of oriminabi and anarchists Into the country. Session to Be Uomeatona. The present session of parliament Is expected to be one of the moat mo mentous in the modern history of th United Kingdom. This expectation ap pears certain of realization If the prea ent program of the government coali tion Is carried out, and that thla will be done, or at any rate will be at tempted, there la Tull reason to be lieve. The government regards the result of the late election aa a popular mandate for it to proceed rigorously with tho policy It adopted in the last parliament It has, moreover, not only a majority sufficient to enable It to do ao, but also a majority requiring it to do so. Lorda the Principal Issue. How far the government will be ablo to get with its program is a matter of much speculation. It la hoped that all contentious measures, if not all the business of the session, , will be dis posed of before the coronation, which is to take place the latter part of June. But to do that will require an extra ordinary expedition of business. There will necessarily be a debate on the ad dress, lasting two or three days. Im mediately thereafter the government In tends to Introduce Its bill for the abo lition of the veto power of the lords. In addition to this there are several other Important matters that will re quire much time. Definite Changes Predicted. The manner in which the anti-veto bfll will be dealt with is already a subject of keen discussion. Before the election it was declared by the highest government authorities that tjhe bill must be passed letter perfect, without the slightest amendment That declar ation served as good campaign material, but whether It will be strictly adhered to Is doubtful. It la regarded" as more than likely that a spirit of concession and compromise will prevail. But even If a compromise on tho anti-veto bill Is promptly effected, the session is bound to be epoch-making in the history of Westminster. It will almost certainly mark the passing away of purely hereditary privilege 'In Brit ish lawmaking, the reconstltution of the upper chamber either in actual compo sition or In essential functions, and the readjustment of relations between the, two houses. Coalition Majority 126. As a result of tho recent election, the coalition, consisting of Liberals, Laborltes and Nationalists, has a ma jority of 126 in a house of 670 mem bors. When some disputed elections ar decided by the courts this majority may be Increased to 134. The veto bill will be the first event of the session. Us main principle will be that If a bill Is Introduced in two consecutive years In the house of com mons and on each occasion thrown out by the lords, and if it then be intro duced In tho third consecutive year, the resistance of the lords ends automat ically. New Peers Slay Be Solution. No one knows yet what the attitude of the lords toward this measure will be. If the peers flsht to the last ditch. Premier Asqulth and his col leagues must advlso the king to create 500 new peers to vote down the pres ent Conservative majority In the house of lords. It Is believed that Asqulth has the king's promise and that he owns 814 acres of land about one mile weat of Pehdleton, Or,, upon which, or In the vicinity of which, it la pro poaed to erect a hospital for the in aane, to accommodate at the outside, about 800 patients. Thla land waa pur. chased from two different owners. "The Oliver-tract of 184 acres la very largely bottom lands bounded by the Umatilla river on the south and the bluffs on the north and along which runs thi O.-W. R, k N. company rail road. The bottom land Is only a fflij feet above low water and at high wai ter is subject to overflow in places. Danger from this source can be avoided by building a dike along tho east line of the traet Several buildings are locat ed on the highest points ot the bottom lands. About 80 acres have been Irri gated by a ditch which crosses the Uto pian gardens, to the river. These gar den tracts, about 40 acres In extent, are not ownod by the state. As all the low water flow of the Umatilla river is entirely consumed, water for the irriga tion of bottom lands not heretofore Ir rigated can only, be secured during the spring floods unless storage is sup plied. Reservoirs for this purpose can be constructed in the mountains. This will probably be necessary in any event, as large quantities of water will be necessary for lawns and general irriga tion around the building site, if locat ed on high ground. This method would probably be cheaper than using city wa ter if such supply la found to be ade quate. "The outlet from the Pendleton sewer aystem entera the river Just above thla traot The Pendleton authorities state that they expect to extend thla sewer to a point below the tract I am not aware of any executed agreement to thla ef fect During the low water flow the two power planta at Pendleton are in the habit of storing all the stream for part of the day to secure sufficient water for the balance of such day. "This condition would compel the. state to extend' the city sewer about on mile f arther4down stream, if the city au thorities failed 'to do so.: f t, Bsslrabl Sit Useless. , : The only high' ground In this tract available for a building site is nqrth of the railroad, and this Is of restricted area because of a ravine which crosses the most - desirable spot . This covs widens to the east, and If the Roberts tract of 64 acres was owned by the state. It would give aSsullding site about 1000 feet long and 200 feet In depth with 100 feet or less .for lawn purposes. The ground rises about 95 feet In 200 feet distance and four test pits show loose lava rock within 7, 1 and 3 feet respectively below the -, surface, with Indications of solid rock close below. "The Carpenter traot of 180 acres Is hill land, the west half of which Is crossed by a ravine. A building site about 800 by 800 feet in dimensions Is found on the east half of this tract, 135 feet above the. present county road and 186 foet above the river. If a building of such dimensions were con structed It would occupy about all the available level land. The average slope in . front of such building would be about 14 feet per 100 to the road, about 1000 feet distant On either side the ground slope would be leas, probably 8 to 10 per cent. Back Of thla buUdlnf site the ground rises gradually, and wouia rurnisn an adequate location of a water tank, which will give the neces sary pressure for domestlo and firs pro tection purpose. The base of such building will be 47 feet below the bottom of the present city reservoir. This head without allow ance for friction losses would give about 20 pounds per square Inch preaaure. Aa about' 80 pounds preaaure Is required, the prosent city supply could not be utilized without pumping. - This supply is Inadequate for nresent dtv d Amanda. and if the proposed mountain water sno- ply Is not Installed, it will probably be necessary ror tne state to sink a bored well to the bottom lands and pump from the underground water stratum from which the city is now supplied. Difficult Road, BnUding. The proposed building site on the Car penter tract can be reached by a wagon road having approximately a 1 per cent grade, or about a 6 per cent grade If started on the. Roberts tract now owned by the state. It can be reached by a railway spur 4600 feet long having a maximum grade of S I per cent, with 10 degree ourvea To construct this will require approximately 7100 oublo yards of solid rock excavation, J100 cu blo yards of earth excavation and the construction of a 825 foot timber trestle of 60 feet maximum height It Is ex tremely doubtful If a railway company can be prevailed upon to operate such spur even If constructed by the state because of Its steep grade. To construct a spur of less grade will be longer and more expensive. Right of way -will have to be purchased or condemned If such spur Is constructed." Lewis says that If the state pur chased the Roberts tract of 54 acres ft would control a "possible water powefi development surncient. to furnish lights for the Institution, pump the necessary water for domestlo supply and for sid hill irrigation, This development, hi ' says,, would cost from ,115,000 to;$25, 000. He doesnot appear to regard fa vorably the Daniels place or 820 acres under option, purchase ofthe Wheeler tract of 82o acres at 130 an acre la recommended.' . ... .
