"The Columbia river naa been referred to as one of the greatest If not? the greatest single" unit of potential hydro-electric develop ment in the world. The United States. Oregon and Washington own this magnificent river, but it perennially rolls away in waste to the sea.' . State and1 Federal Action "The . government and the two states! should proceed at ' once to construct a large hydro-electric plant Ion this stream 1 which would generate cheap power far In excess of th4 present demand and there by Invite the. consumers, .of power to these two states from all over. the -world. "The Ontario power commission oegan ine construction. 01 a piant for ih feneration of 300.000 horselpower on the Niagara river,' but before the- work had fairly started the demand for" cheap pow er was so great that the plant was doubled 60 as to produce 600,000 horsepower, and. now there is less than: 5 0,0 0.0 horse-power, unused. To Uustrate the eriect or puduc development of .water power might add that it cost $40 per monjth to light , the; Canadian end of the i international .bridge, and $80 jper month to light the Ameri can lend. " t ;' "When coal and other fuels have become exhausted or can only he produced at prices that cannot compete with the cost of water power, (Where will the factories of the United States, be located? f Factories Go To Power "There, is only one answer, to this question. The factories must go to the ! power and not the power to the factories. Ultimately the factories of the country will be lo cated in the west wnere most of the' water power; resources are lo- catedr. -vr, "From Goldray on the Rogue river is 'being transmitted power from Oregon to. San Francisco, and it is high time that cheap power be . developed our ' the Columbia river and made available tor Ore gon and Washington. On each side of the Columbia river is railroad which should be operated by electric 'energy "derived ' frbm the stream and the expense of hauling thousands of carloads of coal thousands of miles be elimi nated. . . 3, ' -. . , . . ' -"" "The matter of public develop ment of water power, is, no longer an' experiment r Ass. illustrations ot the success of public develop ment of water power and the oper ation of water plants' may be cited the Ontario, power project .for Can ada; the. ' municipal plant of Chi cago, operated ' by the drainage canal; the Los Angeles hydro electric plant, and many others throughout the United states. v"The principal -cost -of a hydro electric plant is In Hhe dam or dams which" are . so constructed that they are': as' lasting as .the streams themselves. Therefore, no depreciation or loss can he charged against them. ' The machinery and conduits' are the only portion of the plant against which a depre ciation charge can be made and by reason of the improvements made in electrical machinery the depre ciation thereon Is very small. Cheaper Development : : v "Today we notice advertise ments in the newspapers offering tor sale -water power bonds yield-! ing from seven and one-half to eight per cent, while United States f bonds yield only - a little more than half this "percentage. The cost to the' government in interest on bonds to develop water power would be only, a little more than one-halt of the interest on bonds issued for the same purpose by power companies, and they would have the - government back of them. -The. government would en deavor to make the construction cost as, low, as possible. -. ?The desire o the enterprising citizens of eastern. Oregon and Washington to develop the Uma tilla water? power project was thwarted by. the government on the old theory advanced by the power companies that the demand must precede the development. .

"On the contrary "how rapidly would our industrial and commer cial development proceed it we were in a position to offer cheaper power than could , be "offered else where? - "' ' " . '-. The idea of the power- com panies that the demand for energy must 'precede jits development Is purely sellsh and,! Is advanced In order "that" the development may be controlled by them and that they; may also control the price of electrical energy. James J. Hill won his cogno men of empire builder because he pioneered the west with his rail road. He proceeded on the sound principle that railway' facilities must precede the settlement of the west and If the,. west s to become industrially great it must now pro ceed on the sound principle that cheap power must precede, indus trial and commercial development.

How Proposed Amendment Reads 'The i following is "the language of the amendment to be proposed by Senator Joseph :; - ... ' Whereas, there ' exists within the state of Oregon extensive un developed water power resources for which there is great demand; and- r- ;' -f .-"".'-'''-".' .; Whereas, the development there of would cause a great saving of coal, oil and, fuel; and Whereas, t over f lye hundred thousand j acres of . land in the northeastern; portion of the state could be I irrigated by electrical energy developed in the. state of uregon; ana Whereas, - the cost of light, heat and power in the state of Oregon would be. greatly, reduced by such development; .
