STATE TO CONTROL WATER.
Features Of Proposed New lrriaa-
ton Law.

ton Law.
Spokane, Dec. 19.-The irrigation
commission Of the state met in Spokane
Saturday and held three sessions, and
will be in session at least two days
more. It has an irrigation code about
completed, which will be presented to
the governor for submission to the leg
islature.
The bill will provide for the protec.
ton of the water users against water
companies by making the companies
common carriers and subjecting them
to state control.
The irrigation Of the state will be
placed under the charge Of an efficient
engineer, who will in many cases be q
court Of appeal. He will have assist
ants, and the state will be dividend in
to four districts, each of which will
have an irrigation commissioner.
The basic principle of the new law
Is that the water belongs to the land
and not to the individual. The storage
OF water for irrigation purposes will be
under state authority.

GARFIELD'S PLAN
REPORT or COMMISSIONER or COR
pORATlONS:
Would Have All interstate Fran.
chises Originate in Congress-
and All Corporations Doing In.
terState Business Under Fed.
eraI Control.

Washington, Dec. 22.-The first
annual report of the commissioner Of
corporations was submitted to congress
yesterday by Commissioner Garfield.
He says no satisfactory reform is tn be
expected under the state system Of in
corporation; that the federal govern
ment has at it's command sufficient
power to remedy existing conditions in
it's control of Interstate commerce. He
therefore suggests that congress con-
slider the advisability of enacting law
for the legislative regulation of inter
state and foreign commerce under Ii
cense or franchise which in general
should provide as follows:
"rhe granting of a federal license
or franchise to engage in interstate
commerce.
1.-The imposition of all necessary re-
quirements to corporate organization
and management as condition prece-
dent to the grant Of such franc hise or
license.
"The requirement of such reports
and returns as may be desired as a
condition of the retention of such fran
chise or license.
"The prohibition of all corporations
and corporate agencies from engaging
in interstate and foreign commerce
without such federal franchise or Ii
cense.
"The full protection of the grantees
of such franchise or license who obey
the laws applicable thereto.
''The right to refuse Or withdraw
such franchise or license in case of vi
olation of law, with appropriate right
of judicial appeal to prevent abuse of
power by the administrative officers. -
Commissioner Garfield says the bu-
reau under the direction Of the secre-
tary of commerce and labor, affords
the appropriate machinery for the ad-
ministratiion of such law.

PUBLIC LIBRARIES.
Official Report Says Washington
Should Have More.

SNOulO Gu0VS GbOG(.
Olympia, Dec. l9.-The report of
State Librarian Joseph A. Gabel is in
the hands of the printer and will be
ready soon for submission to the state
library commission, which is made no
OF the governor, mem bers of the su.
preme court and the attorney general.
The report is of interest chiefly as the
first to be made under the new law
which created the commission and en-
larged the functions of the library.
The report shows how the library has
emerged from mere collection Of
books to an educational working force
working along definite lines. The re-
port shows that the new law providing
for the enlargement and Encouragement
OF the library through its departments
has been carried out.
In connection with the report on the
circulating libraries an interesting ia
BILE shows that out of sixty-n cities
and towns in the state that should have
public librries only thirteen are so

LAND CASES GO OVER.

Government Asks to Have Cases Set
for Next Term.
Portland, Or, Dec. 19.-On motion
of Special Assistant United States At
torney General Heney all the land
fraud cases now pending in the United
States circuit court for the district OF
Oregon have been ordered to go over
for the term. The witnesses assem- bled
to appear were excused for the term.
United States District Attorney Hall
asked the court that the federal grand
jury, which was given recess early
agitation begun when Prince Sviato-
polk. Mirsky made his advent as minis
ter Of the interior. The zemstvoist de
mands for direct body to make the
laws of the nation will not be granted,
but some medium in the form of rep
resentative consultative body which
can convey the wishes of the people
direct to the sovereign now seems the
probable outcome. An entirely new
law for the liberalization OF the press
aso is apparently certain.
The plan for a consultative body,
in November, be ordered to reconvene
next Monday. Mr.. Heney gave out
the following statement:
"It is necessary for me to be in San
Francisco on important private bust
ness January 2, and to be in Washing
ton on the Hyde Diamond land fraud
case during the second week in Janu.
airy, and as it appeared that the con-
spiracy case upon the trial Of which
we were about to enter would consume
as much time as the previous one, and
| would thereby prevent me from keep
ing my engagements, and as l desired
to present some important patters to
the grand jury before leaving here,
secured the consent Of the attorneys
for the defendants to continue the pres.
ent cases for the term in consideration
for tho government making some
slight concessions in relation to the
defendants bonds in cases which have
not yet been tried"

TACOMA EASTERN.
Two Thousand Tons of Steel Rails
for Extensions Ordered.


Portland, Or, Dee. 19.-Two thou
sand tons of steel rails, enough to lay
twenty five miles of track, have been
ordered by the management of the TIA.
coma Eastern railway for early deliv-
cry, and it is the intention to construct
the road to the east central portion of
Lewis county early the coming year.
1t is believed that this is but the fore
runer Of an exvtension Of the Tacoma
Eastern to connect with the oregon
Railroad & Navigation Company some
where along the Columbia river and to
estab lish beyond doubt that the road is
but brnach Of the Hartman system.
That the trackage is not intended for
light work is attested by. the fact that
eighty five pound steel rails have been
ordered.
