Perhaps one of the most Imnortant and difficult problems which munici palities are called upon to solve is that of securing an ample supply of pure mountain water. It Is well known that there are a number of cities, towns and public institutions in the Willamette valley greatly in need of a better water supply, and- while It would be out of the question for many of them to undertake single handed tne installation 01 an extensive sys tem, they could with propriety Join in a cooperative movement leading to the construction of one which wonld serve the needs of all. While this might be looked upon as purely a local problem, it should not De forgotten mat tnere are many sucn matters which can only be solved through state cooperation: that cities and towns are but units which o to make up the state, and that whatever may be done toward their betterment benefits the state as a whole. Having called the matter to the at tention of the legislature of 1911, at the last session I submitted a measure giving the state board power to secure water rights ana rignts or way as might be needed by these cities and towns. Although this bill Arriv1 nn appropriation 'and was merely for the purpose of laying the ground work for a great movement in the sublic inter est, -It received only mat consideration necessary to rock it to the deer and lasting legislative sleep which knows no awakening. The state board of health has made a careful investigation of the water supply of the Willamette valley cities and gives its endorsement to the pro posed plan for cooperation.

These cities, towns and institutions have at present a total population of about 50,000. It is estimated, however, that it will reach 125.000 in 15 years. and close to 200,000 in 25 years. Tne state board of health, tnrougn Louis C. Kelsey. its consulting en gineer, has chosen Clear Lake as a source of water supply. Perhaps no where can be found a better one. Clear Lake is beautifully situated near ' the foot of the Three Sisters, in the heart of a federal forest and the Cascade mountains. Repeated examinations prove the waters to be of exceptional purity. The lake Is a natural reser voir and discharges approximately 400 cubic i'eet per second in the summer season. This minimum discharge is sufficient to supply the needs of 1.500, 000 population. The water could be delivered to thecities in the valley at about the same- pressure as normally obtains in the city of Portland. My purpose in calling this matter to your attention is that steps may be taken to secure title to this wonderful reservoir and is crystal waters that same may be held in trust for the peo ple and put to a beneficial use when the circumstance? and conditions will justify 'a cooperative movement along the above suggested lines. Acquisition of Private Property for a Publio Use. Experience has taught us the need of legislation which will protect the taxpayers against the payment of ex cessive sums when private property is taken for public use. Owners are entitled to Just compensation, but not to exorbitant prices. Property is sup posed to be assessed at something near full cash value, and a law limiting the e mount to be paid -in condemnation cases to double that of the assesse.l valuation would save thousands of- dollars to the taxpayers and at the same time Insure fair treatment to the property owner. Jefferson Street Xivee. The last legislature appropriated $50,000 for the use of this office in recovering possession and title to the old public levee near the foqt of ef f erson street, Portland, Or. I . am pleased to report that I was able to perform the mission without the ex penditure of anj part of the appropri ation. The email amount of expense connected with the adjustment of the matter was taken care of by the citv or rortianu. The Dalles-Portland Wagon Boad. By an act of the last legislature, the governor was directed to make an In vestigation of the claims of the state and several counties in and to the right of way formerly used as a wagon road between Portland and The Dalles. While this investigation was under way the railroad company and counties interested amicably adjusted all differ ences and further action upon my part was maoe unnecessary, cut a small part of the appropriation provided was expended. Portland Gas Coke Company Pran- onise. In accordance with instructions con tained in senate concurrent resolution No. 17, passed at the last session ef the legislature. I have examined into the law and the racts naving a bearing upon certain franchises granted- in years past by the legislature and now held by the Portland Gas & Coke Com- Deny, and my findings will be submit ted in a special report. sm one-hair of the expense authorized by the emergency board has been incurred. Xiaw 'Enforcement. As a result of -the last election this state will be "dry" January 1. ,1918, For a number of years after the prohi bition amendment goes Into effect, the friends of the movement will find they hae a much harder fight on their hands. than they had before the vote was taken. William Allen White, of Kansas, who speaks from experience, has this to say to the people of Oregoti- "The great danger to the temper ance cause' and the prohibition cause was not before the election, but it is now after the election. You have only Lthe opportunity to enlist; you have not won the right. .Prohibition will prohibit only as men and women of faith and courage put their lives into it. . You' Oregon people must be willing to stand jeers and insults'you must ba willing to go down Into vour pockets and spend money. You must give your time and lose patronage from ypur business. You must have faith to see those who-thought they could vote in the milennium grow weary and go back to the riesnpois. "In 10 -years, perhaps in less time but in 10 years surely, you will have begun to win this fight, but it will tak? courage and common sense and faith .that moves mountains. The fight' is not won. The time for cheerful fight ing has juet begun." If prohibition is to be made effect lve the "dry" amendment- to our con stitution must be supplemented by such legislation as will give the gov ernor of the state, who4 is charged with the enforcement of the law, an effect ive means of enforcing the law. There are those who would crucify the cause by imposing penalties so drastic that no jury would convict. It has been suggested that having liquor in one's house be made a felony. . Who, serv ing on a jury, would vote to brand his neighbor as a felon and send him te a felon's cell because a bottle of beer was found in his home? . Montesduleu says: "If we examine the cause of all de fiance of law. we shall see that it is to be found in the failure to punish crime, not in the moderation of the penalty." . These words are -as true today as they were in Montesquieu's time and are wormy 01 your tnougnuut conm eration. An effective law carryin-? reasonable penalties strictly enforced, will produce results. Excessing pen alties will ' not bring us a. strict ob servance of the' law; they will bring us nothing but :hung juries, costly trials, disgusted taxpayers and revolt. Section 10 of article 5 of the consti tution - provides that the governor shall take care that the laws be faith fully executed. . a Those who made this provisten a part of our constitution undoubtedly assumed, and they had a right to as sume, that the legislature would promptly provide, through adequate laws, a means by which this mandate could be fulfilled and without resort ing to certain extraordinary remedies piovlded by the constitution. ir toe governor is to be cnargea wiin the enforcement of the law be should be fully provided with the means of performing that duty. Among other things, he should be given, free fromt any red tape restrictions, the power to remove- ana appoint successors te ois trict attorneys, sheriffs and eonsta- Dies, whom he may una reiusing or failing to enforce the law, or otherwise perform the duties of their office. The governor should be given the power to call upon the attorney gen eral for assistance in all matters per taining to law enforcement, and to this' end the hands of the said official should be strengthened. The attorney general should be given general super vision over the offices of the several district attorneys and the power to direct their activities when the occa sion so demands. Each and every dis trict attorney should be required to make monthly reports advising him fully as to the progress of the office. It is well known that prompt action is had by the federal government in all matters passing through the hands of its several United States at torneys. This is due largely to the fact that monthly reports are made to the department of Justice at Washington. The attorney general is thus kept fully advised as to the work of his subordi nates. These reports set forth the docket entry made in each case pend ing at the date of the last monthly re port; also -the new cases and every conviction, "acquittal and dismissal in fact, all transactions of the office. Should a like system come to pre vail in this state it will go far towards bringing order out of chaos, raising the standard of efficiency and promot ing law enforcement. As it is now, each district attorney enforces, or fails to enlorce, the law in nis own peculiar manner. This lack of uniformity and system opens the way for favoritism and graft and throws many obstacles In the way of law enforcement. Should the aforesaid recommenda tions be made the law by your honor able body, I am sure the executive of fice and that of the attorney general will be fully advised at all times as to the work of the district attorneys, an effective means for enforcing the law will be provided, and the necessity for resorting to that extraordinary constitutional remedy the militia practically eliminated. Capital Punishment. Now that capital punishment- has been abolished in this state, restric tion should be thrown around the par doning, power In those cases where life sentences have been imposed. It has been suggested that no pardon should be granted in such cases except upon iecommendation of the court which originally tried the case. The Unemployed. . Unemployment is not a temporary evil, but a permanent condition result ing from social maladjustment. We cannot hope for Immediate -relief. All we can do for the present is to treat the evil withspeelfic remedies, mak-h-ie the best possible distribution of idle labor and available industry. De cent wages should be paid and proper working conditions provided, as tho problem is not one 01 cnaruy. a aen nite and permanent policy should be striven for. ' Temporary relief in the long run only tends to aggravate the situation. Many private employment agencies have been guilty of abuses that have blackened them In the public eye. Whether these agencies can constitu tionally be abolished Is a debatable question. The courts may not be in clined to permit more than regulation. which might remove many of the abuses, but could hardly create effi ciently, it seems to me in at a step in the right direction would be the estab lishment of a state employment bu reau, with the power not only to regu late the private agencies, out to co operate with municipalities. This bu reau should be made a clearing house for the distribution ox labor ana labor information. Retrenchment. A cry for relief went up from the overburdened taxpayer and you answered that you would come to his aid. The time for action is at hand. Appropriations must be held to the lowest letel consistent with good busi ness, every useless board ana commis sion should be abolished and. where possible, others consolidated. I have been asked by those who would protect certain needless offices to recommend the appointment of a commission to fully Investigate the whole question and report at the next session of the legislature. This I re fused to do. as 1 consider it tne plain duty of this legislature to meet these problems fairly and squarely now and in 'such a manner as will not only bring relief to the long suffering tax payer, but greater efficiency .in state government. 1 nese matters nave aireaay ueen given close study by members of your honorable body and other state offi cials. At the commonwealth confer ence recently held in Eugene and pre sided over b-y ms excellency, governor. elect Wlthycombe, the whole situation was thoroughly gone into ana tne re sults of the labors of those present nlaccr! in the hands of his excellency. ' who has no doubt used them as a basis for recommendations to your honor able body. Such suggestions as he may make along these lines should receive your roost thoughtful consideration. He has been chosen by the people as their executive ana snouia oe given everv aid and assistance in his ef forts to initiate and maintain those policies which, in his opinion, will make for a "more economical and effi cient aovernment. Continuing appropriations ana tne expenditure or tees couectea oy many departments lead to extravagance. Fees of every cnaracter snouia oe lumeu into the general fund and continuing appropriations reduced to the lowest possible pomr- utner extravagances come through legislative approval of hlankeL aDDronrlatlon bills presented bv the wave and means committee and I the executive's lack or authority to veto single Items therein. Tne right tofveto single items Is a reform long needed, and this legislature should be he medium through which constitutional amendment along these lines may be submittea to tne people. in the meantime, it Is your duty to oppose tne passage ox vmowui umo and demand the consideration of each Item upon its merits. Trusting that the information and su creations offered, herewith will nroce of some help to you in your earnest efforts to solve the many nrnblems which will be yours during ! this session and with as u ranees of swh hearty cooperation as one in pri vate life may give, this message is 1 respectfully submitted, L OSWALD WEST.
