Who will be appointed by Governor
Chamberlain as state engineer when
the Irrigation law passed at the last
session goes into effect In May? Ru
mor has It that J. H. Lewis, one of
the force of reclamation men now
here may be given the honor should
he desire it. Under the provisions of
the set the engineer Is appointed by
the governor upon the recommenda
tion of the director of the geological
survey, and usually In such cases the
reommendation is made upon the
suggestion of some subordinate offi
cer. In this case It would seem that
the division engineer, John T. Whis
tler, should be consulted. Should
such be the case it would seem that
Mr. Lewis Is in a good position to se
cure the appointment, provided he is
given the endorsement of his present
chief.
Inquiry yesterday revealed the fact
that Mr. Lewis Is not a candidate for
the position of state engineer. In
fact, under the rules of the service
he could not be an applicant without
first resigning his present position
While there are many attractions
about the state appointment, besides
the salary of $2400 per annum for
four years, there are doubtless some
disadvantages also. In view of these
and the fact that he already holds
good position in the reclamation
service Mr. Lewis is said to have no
great desire for the appointment
though, of course, he might accept It
were he named for the place.
The following from the act creating
the office of state engineer shows
the duties of that official:
He shall have general supervision
of nil the measurements, and records
of appropriation, of waters of the
state, and of all surveys and engineer
ing work In which the state may be
interested, and for which funds are
provided, and shall perform nil work
In connection therewith. He shall
receive a salary of $2400 per annum
and actual and necessary traveling ex
penses while away from his office in
the discharge of official duties, and
shall not engage In private practice.
He may employ assistant and pur
chase materials and supplies neces
sarv for the proper conduct and
maintenance of his office and depart
ment, in pursuance of appropriations
as made from time to time for such
purposes.
The salaries and expenses of the of
fice j,f the state engineer shall be
'paid at the same time and In the
same manner as those of other of
ficers of the state. , The office of the
state engineer shall be located at the
seat of government In the capitol
building. The state engineer nnd his
authorized agents and assistants, may
enter upon any private property for
the performance of their respective
duties, doing no unnecessary injury
thereto.
The state engineer shall prepare
and deliver to the governor, on or be
fore November 30th of the year pre
ceding the regular session of the leg
islature, and at other times when re
quired by the governor, a full report
of the work of his office, including a
detailed statement of the expendi
tures thereof, with such recommen
dations for legislation as he may
deem advisable.
