The Nct Irrigation Code.
J,Ir. J. C. Bryant, representative-
?isct from Multhouiah county, is
working on a draft of a bill for a
f-ew irrigation code for Oregon. He
; working in Hue with the ideas of
Mate i-.ngtnccr i.t'wis, 111c c.xprcs
on of tuc Oregon Mate grange,
and the plans of the Oregon com
n'.t.ssioti for the conservation of the
tatural resources of the state. If
ike ideas of these men and organ
ations are incorporated in a bill,
t oughl to give Oregon a very good
Tigaltou code.
A few of the main features ol
A!r. Bryant's bill arc coutaiucd in
the statement
TtiM the water of the Mate Won
. . tile people of the state ami can be uel
i'!cr i-ertatti restrictions (or beneficial

as developed the site already licM by i;
-rant from the state, that full at.ite-
icr.u cit tltc eomtructioii ami labor of

btate encinecr upon the completion of
nny project, and that the state (halt re-

rl the franelllte or before that time, ami
hat tl state (halt have The right ami
ower to regulate the co of heat, light
r poiVct- Used bv the date or by any in.
rporattd city or town."'
The feature of the bill that pre
vldes for a limit of 25 years to wa
terpower franchises is most impor
tant, as is also the provision re
quiring that annual fees be paid to
the state by power companies for
the use of the state's water power.
Competent engineers estimate that
.7 Milall yearly rental paid to the
Mate for each horsepower developed
would, in a few years, pay by fat
.he larger part of stale expenses,
and would thus lessen the burden
,if taxation, practically doing away
jvjib jt. The watcrpewer of the
Idte belongs to the people and why
should they not receive compeusa
jlon for its use ?
There are a number of other very
important features that the new
pode should contain, such as a
jiropcr administrative system, and
.he right of individuals to condemn
,ight of way for irrigation ditches.
this latter provision being sur
,oucded by" proper restrictions.
However, these provisions will un
doubtedly be given proper atten
j ion by those having the bill in
J-aud.
There will be no measure of more
importance before the coming legis
lature than this one of a modern it
1 igation code for Oregon. Such a
Jaw is of vilal importance to the en
ure state, and .especially to Eastern
Htid CentVal Oregon where irriga
lion is destined to play so important
n part. Every citizen should keep
m close touch with the progress of
(his movement, and should bring
nil the pressure possible to bear on
his senator and representatives in
the demand for a modern irrigation
-ode. There will be strenuous op
jjositiou from water power interests.
They succeeded in defeating a like j
bill at the preceding session of the
legislature, Tiiey must not be al
lowed to doso again.
Who Plays the Bunco Game?
Notv thU President Koosevelt
has come out openly in favor of
Governor Chamberlain as senator,
I, it not about time for those mis-
guided and mistaken anti-Statement
1 X6. individuals to cease tbeu; at-1
temp's tp thwart what the people of
the 'suttf want? When Governor
Chamberlain called on the president
at the White IJousc last Saturday,
President ttooscvclt extended hi
hand and saul: "I am glad to sce
you, Governor Chamberlain, ami
sctiator-to be, Tltc people of Ore
goti have expressed their choice for
senator. I stand by the will of the
people, and I am for you for scun
tor."
That's the manner in which the
prvat mind of President Roosevelt
looks upon the situation in Oregoti.
He says the "people of Oregon"
have expressed their choice for sen
ator. And the president is correct.
There never was a greater bunco
game than the attempt now being
made in Oregon to have it nppear
that Chamberlain U not the choice
cf a majority of the people of the
state for enator; and thus by mak
tng it so appear, to defeat hira be
fore the legislatuic. This dishon
orable game is being played by a
few oldtin:t politicians who have,
been put out of business by Ore
gon's primary law and other ad
vanced Statutes, and .by a few
"party" newspapers who cau not
or will not sec the trend in Oregon
away from machine politics and
toward clcauer stul better govern
ment. If ever there was a bunco game,
the anti-Statement No 1 politicians
are playing it.
