In last Friday’s issue of the St. Paul Dispatch appeared the following news item: “The reapportionment bill passed by the house will not get the votes of Senators James Handlin and Peter Van Hoven, the two Ramsey county democrats in the upper house, unless it is amended. Both declared this morning they are opposed to the bill in its present form. “I would be a ‘sucker’ to vote for the bill in its present shape, and vote myself out of office,’ said senator Handlin. ‘I could not run and be elected in the district they have given me under the bill. I ran just about even in that part of the dis- trict, and my majority came from the part they are taking away.’ ” Now in the same issue the Dis- patch ran the following editorial: “The senator who votes against a reapportionment bill solely for the reason that it legislates him out of ment for the passage of such a bill.| A bill could accomplish no better purpose than ousting from the ser- vice of the public a man who has no higher or better ideals. Such a man is right in clinging to office while he may, for surely he will never be given another opportunity.” THE VALUE OF OUR WATERWAYS. Northern Minnesota is vitally in- terested in the effort being made by Representative Lewis C. Spooner of Morris to have the legislature auth- orize an investigation of the water- ways of the state. By joint resolution No. 11 the Legislature of 1909 recommended that an investigation be made into the feasibility of internal waterway development in accordance with the scheme of C. J. Mershon, a’civil en- gineer of Chicago, for the construc- tion of canals and impounding reser- voirs, for the purpose of draining the northern part of the state, for the improvement of navigation on the Minnesota and Mississippi rivers, the development of water powers in con- nection therewith, and the construc- tion of a canal between lake Superior and Sauk Rapids to be supplemented by improvement of the Mississippi river between Sauk Rapids and St. Paul. House file No. 103, introduced by Mr. Spooner, is intended to provide for the employment of three compe- tent civil engineers to make the sur- vey recommended by joint resolution No. 11 of the session of 1909, to de- termine the feasibility of the propos- ed waterway improvements and; drainage work, and to report thereon | home. to the legislature.

'No. 76, also introduced by Mr. Spooner, goes THE BEMIDJI PIONEER- PUBLISHING (0, |much forther than the orlginal plan and calls for the appointment a Minnesota, state water supply com- mission to. consist of three members appointed by the. governor, for the purpose of investigating “the best metlmdsr of preventing floods and the damage therefrom in the rivers and streams of the state,” and also to “co- operate as far as possible with the United States engineérs in securing a deep channel between Minneapolis and St. Louis, and to examine into the feasibility and expense of making a navigable canal by slack water or by canalization, or by both pldns combined, above Minneapolis such point in the state as will per- mit an ultimate connection by canal with the west end of Lake Superior.” This commission is also to ascer- tain the sources, from which port- able water is taken, and in the inter- est of health to insure freedom from contamination of water used for do- mestic purposes. But the most significient feature of Mr. Spooner’s bill is section 3, “It is hereby declared that the beneficial use and the natur- al energy of the waters of all streams navigable or non-navigable, in lakes, reservoirs, swamps or percolating (ground) waters in the state are owned by the state and subject to state control for all purposes, save such as were reserved by the Consti- tution of the United States to the federal government, and should - be regulated by state law.” This is 2 new and radical step and yet one which is said to be supported | by judicial opinion to the effect that { waters of the streams lying within aily given state belong to and should be subject to the regulation and con- trol of the several states in which they are situated. It is doubtful if any measure of equal importance will be presented to. the consideration of the legislature |, at this session. This bill looks to the ownership of water powers by the state. The report of the waterways com- mission shows that Minnesota is un- usually rich in natural resources of this kind. It also appears that there are those who are industrious and enterprising in the work of acquir- ing controi over these water powers, and if the state would derive the most benefit, or, indeed, any benefit, from the use of these powers which it claimes to own, it must lose no time in providing by law how they may be leased or otherwise made avail- able for use. Water power have recently been acquired in var- ious parts of the state without any provision for guarding the rights of the public. It will take time to make a thor- ough examination of the water sys- tem of the state so as to determine office furnishes the strongest argu-|where water powers may be develop- ed and to what extent, but it will not take the legislature very long to assert the ownership of the state in whatever water powers have been or may be deyeloped, and that is the important feature of this bill. It is not believed that there will be any conflict with federal rights, because the federal government as- serts no control over water courses except for purposes of navigation. i Most of the water powers, of course, are located on non-navigable streams, and the only interest the government'| { would have in the control of water from such streams would be to see that water in those streams was not diverted from its natural channels so as to effect the service which it might render on navigable stretches of water courses.
