CONTROL OF WATER
BY STATE COMMISSION.

| The creation of state water com
mission was asked of the Legislature
by the Boise Maintenance and Oper
ton conference, Saturday, Feb. 5, in
resolution which met unanimous ap
proval. The commission, according to
the resolution, should have absolute
power in the administration of the
public water Of the state, another
clause proposes an amendment to
the constitution abolishing the
method of securing a water right by
appropriation and USE
The commission would be composed
of three members, one of them the
state engineer. the others named by
the governor for six-year terms, one
to be appointed every three years. In
addition to the power OF appropriat-
ing the waters of the state, the COM
mission would adjudicate the waters
and fix their duties.

ton, passed unanimously, asking the
Legislature to make an appropriation
to cooperate with the national gov
eminent in ascertaindng the volume
of the water supply of Idaho and ade-
quate, dependable data concerning
the same, which Is now being carried
on by the United States geological
survey. A bill providing an appro-
priation for that purpose, and passed
by both houses OF the 1915 legisla-
ture. was vetoed by the governor.
The resolution embodied a strong ex-
preston Of the need of such work.
An expression of the conference ON
the measurement of water was Sc
cured through the adoption OF reso-
luton suggesting that, wherever
practical, water be measured to the
user by the acre foot and that all |
over minimum fixed by the duly ee-
sabliShed authority of each self-gov-
srning unit be an additional charge
against the user, to be not less than
he cost Of delivery. 1t was further
'uggested that 1t be delivered at a
lime and In the amount demanded by
he water user, in the belief that this
method would reduce the amount Of
water required, and decrease the ex-
'ense OF irrigation In not requiring a
anger head at one time than another i
r an enlargement, OF the main canal. &
The importance OF thoroughly COM
'etent water masters was urged In i
mother resolution which suggested I
hat the men who should attend to q
he regulation and distribution Of the :
'ater Of the principal streams be APP e
ointed strictly on merit and serve 4
ontinuously during good behavior. =

LONG ON NOISE
SHORT ON ACTION

Washington, D. c., Feb. 14.-An ap
palling oversight of the Democratic
administration In providing for ma
tiOnal defense mas been laid bare.
Representative Patrick H. Kelley
of Michigan, member of the Naval
Affairs Committee, has disclosed to
the House that of the nine dread
naughts, seventeen destroyers, thirty
nine submarines and two transport
and supply ships authorized by Con-
gress or under construction since
the Democrats have been in control
Of the House, Not One is Complete, i
More important still, no apparel
effort has been made by the PFesn
dent or the Navy Department since
the beginning of the war in Europe
to hasten the construction and COM
pletion of these additions to the
Navy.
Why this neglect on the part Of
the administration to carry out the
mandate of Congress to equip the
navy for adequate national defense
at this time?
In a resolution setting forth this
condition Mr.. Kelley referred to the
Presidents recent statement that
the world is on fire and We are
daily treading amidst dangers not of
our own making and not under our
control; no man can tell what day
bring forth"
His resolution proposed that the
Secretary of the Navy be directed to
negotiate at once with contractors
and government ship yards to learn
the earliest time within which these
war craft can be completed, and re-
port to the House
1.-THE President has said in his re-
cent speeches that the country faces
a crisis" said Mr.. Kelley, land none
3ould tell what day might bring
forth" If this language means any
thing, 1t means that our need of
defense is a present need Dread
laughts and battle cruisers authorized
by this Congress will not be avail
able .or the defense of the country
or four years to come.
Hence it seems to me that the
'irst duty of Congress is to see that
he sixty-seven ships now under con-
or authorized for the Ameri-
an navy are completed and made
Ivailable at the earliest possible
Preparations which do not :
for five years would not
vail us anything if our danger is a
resent one.
II cannot understand how the
resident, knowing the danger as he
My can know it, has made no sug- ;,
estion to Congress that the ships =
ow under construction ought to be
nshed to completion.
'"Either we are in danger or the
resident has been negligent in this
egard."

SECRETARY OF WAR
GARRISON RESIGNS.

Lindley M. Garrison, secretary OF
war, and Henry S. Breckenridge, as
sistant secretary, resigned from the
cabinet on the 10th inst, on account
of differences of opinion between the
president and Mr.. Garrison over
handling the army plans. Upon the
receipt of the resignation the presi-
dent Immediately sent letter of
acceptance and actively took charge
of the war department, although
Major General Scott, chief OF staff
of the army, became secretary ad
interim. Mr.. Garrison was a strong
advocate of national preparedness
and it is said that he and former
Secretary of State Bryan differed
radically on many subjects.
1t Is understood that the presi-
dents recent speechmaking tour
through the middle west was under
taken partially at the suggestion Of
his secretary of war and that Mr.
Garrison was displeased because the
president failed to stand pat against
any compromise on the plans previ- |
ously agreed upon.
Thus we find President Wilson de-
serted in the hour of his sore per-
plexity by his secretary OF state,
who lis opposed to any policy OF pre-
paredness whatever, and his secre-
AIRY of war who stood for large
federal continental army and opposed
% reliance upon the militia for ma
ional defense.

pEMoaALIzED DEMOCRACY.

A Washington correspondent as
serts that the Democrats IN Con.
gress are demoralized and are &C
tually guilty Of deliberate neglect Of
duty. To prove his assertion he has
taken the trouble to go over the
record and finds that from actual
daily count of the roll-call since the
holidays, out Of 22S Democrats and
1877 Republicans In the House, nom
January 5th to 31st, the Republicans
outnumbered the Democrats On the
floor some times two to one and
some times three to one. The In
ability of the party In power to
legislate has been shown In the
past Haste, inaccuracy and crude
fncompetency run like a scarlet
thread through the statutes 1t has
enacted. Listless, hopelessfy divided
among themselves, they are furnish
ing conspicuous example, not only
of their incapacity to handle the at
fairs entrusted to them, but also q
total lack Of appreciation Of tho
necessity for close application to
the business In hand. II errors and
disastrous consequences are to be
avoided. 1t Is not to be wondered at
that President Wilson has decided
that the National Preparedness pro-
gram win have to be made a non
partisan question, In order to re-
cetve proper consideration.

This is the reason for the shop meet
| ings.
Plans for the Y. NJ. c. A. shop meet,
ings this winter as outlined by Mr.
Bruner are to have the ministers 70
tate so no minister will address the
| same men twice in succession. Var
| ious prominent business men will be
called upon to go to the shops and
introduce the ministers. Mr.. BruneI
