Ferris bill applied to the non naviga-
BILE streams which the government un-
dertakes to control by the ownership
OF the abutting lands now embraced In
power site Withdrawals.
Court Will Go Slow.
II the suit In Idaho is supported by
other suits in other western states
and If these various suits reach the 81.
preme court at one and the same time,
that tribunal will go thoroughly into
the water power and stream control
question, and will ponder long before
interrupting the law and the constitu-
ton. This would be particularly true
because of the widespread interest and
because of the novel issue raised by
the attorney general. At its last term
the supreme court, for the first time,
was asked to determine the constitu-
tionality of the minimum wage laws in
Oregon, Massachusetts and several
other states. That question had never
before been before the court 1t was
live issue in many states. and prom
ises to become an issue In other states.
Therefore, the court, after the several
cases were argued, took the matter I'M
der advisement and the minimum wage
case was one of few cases that went
over until the next term. The courte
did not want to make any mistake In
its decision; hence the delay.
A similar presentation of the con-
tention of the western states In the
matter of jurisdiction over non -naW-
gable streams, coupled with ques-
tioning of the authority of the federal
government to control power develop
ment merely because the government
owns the sites, while the water itself
is under state control would make a
strong impression upon the supreme
court and would bring from that court
the best judgment of its nine judges.
The same result may be attained by
the single suit from Idaho, but the ac-
ton of the court on the minimum
wage case indicates that the court Is
the more anxious to be right when the
issue involved affects many states.

any, takes issue with the attorney gem
eral, and denies the right Of the feder

any but the navigable rivers. That the
opinion of the attorney general is rad
ical is conceded, even in government
circles at Washington and the war de-
partment, which has jurisdiction over
navigable streams, has never before
presumed that it had any jurisdiction
over rivers beyond the head of naviga-

having extended that authority to all
tributaries, and to the sources of these
rivers, his ruling is governing and will
be followed unless upset by the courts,
Takes States Powers.
Under the ruling of the attorney
general, which the Idaho Mining asso-
citation Is to attack, the federal gov
Iernment usurps the right of the states
to control the waters Of practically al
their waterways even though they be
non -navigable. Every stream in Idaho,
under this decision, and every stream

department, and taken from the con-

AS yet the war department has not
developed the policy that will be form
ulated on the opinion of the attorney
general and has not laid down any
general rules for the control and reg
ulation of power development on the
non -navigabe streams that have been
given into its jurisdiction. But it Is
expected the department between now
and December will formulate recon-
mendations which it will submit to
congress and ask to have them incor-
porated in the Shields water power
bill, which is to be reintroduced. The
Shields bill, as distinguished from the
Ferris bill, sought to regulate power
