Having in mind his instructions to
prepare plans for tibet diversion Of Bas-,
sett 3 creek into Cedar lake and from
there into the park lakes and Mime.
haha creek, City Engineer Andrew Rim;
ker took another trip along the valley
of Minnehaha creek Wednesday He
wanted to see for himself what the four,
inches Of rainfall on the day before:
had done.
Altho there are numerous lakes in
the valley to serve as reservoirs, the.
creek was booming like mill race and,
the water was higher than ever in the
spring. freshets This was the verdict
Of those who had lived along the creek
for many years. Many fine meadows
were submerged and the damage to hay
and pasture lands is considerable.
Present conditions are due entirely
to natural causes" said Mr.. Rinker,
and they may be repeated almost any
time. What would. happen if the
waters of such large stream as Bas-
sett IS creek are diverted into Mime
shaha must be evident to any one.
Should the creek be raised foot or
more above its present high stage the
damage would be increased many fold.
The problem Of !. diverting Bassett IS
creek is not the easy one that the adj
svocates of !; the plan. seem to think.
Rather, it is a difficult problem except
at "a much greater expense than any
one contemplated. a-.,.a

Kellogg Pleased to See Validity OF
Leases Passed Upon. ...':

Frank B. Kellogg of st. Paul, who ap-
peared as counsel in the "Sliver - case
for several leaseholders, was asked to-
day for his view of the litigation. He
said:
"The decision speaks for itself. When
the suit was first brought the issue
raised was that clerks in the. auditor s
office were interested in the state lease.
Subsequently another issue was brought,
and it was claimed that all state leases
were not valid on the ground that the
constitution provides that no portion of
state lands shall be sold otherwise than
by public sale. The constitution, how
ever, contemplates the leasing Of land
and does not in any manner prohibit
such lease.
When this issue was raised, great
many private interests, owning such
leases, became interested and appeared
thru their various counsel. It was, nat
urally, a question of very great in
been issued during the last sixteen
years, and always have been treated as
leases and not sales by every branch
OF the state government. Consequently,
large Investments have been made in
construction. -
II think the state has everything to
lose ana nothing to- gain by. setting the
leases aside. It appeared in this case
that the state is receiving the same
royalty as private individuals on all
and Michigan. These leases are owned
by a great many persons. The Steel
company has some, but it is not the
largest owner compared with the other
oWnerships. It has no more interest
in it. than many others. The, constitu-
tional question has been raised and
should be settled, as this talk about the
invalidity of the leases will stop devel-
opment of state lands. The attorney
general is doing no more than his duty
to settle the question: =,
