Owyhee semi-weekly tidal wave. [volume] (Silver City, Owyhee County, Idaho Territory) 1868-1869, 1869-08-17

We find the decision of David
Noggle, Judge of the I'd District, in
the matter of Ben Wilson ct al vs.
David Williams ct al, published in
the Chronicle of the 18th. This is
suit, as we gather from the decision,
brought by Ben Wilson and his part
ners to restrain the defendants from
using the water of Grimes creek in
Boise county above, and to the det-
riment of the prior rights of plain
tiffs, who claim that by their prior
location they are entitled to the wa
ter in its purity as it was when their
rights were acquired, while the de-
PENDANTS, in violation of plaintiffs
rights, have located above and di-
verted the waters from their natural
channel, which, though turned back
into the original bed before reaching
the head of plaintiffs ditch. are di-
unfinished in quantity and so defiled
by an admixture of clay as TO de-
tract from their value TO plaintiffs.
Defendants answering deny all the
eqnities in the case and claim TO
have worked and occupied their
ground and used the water with
the peaceable consent of plaintiffs
for more than five years prior to the
commencement of this suit !; that
they divert the waters of the creek
from the channel more thai five
miles and turn them back more than
mile and a half above plaintiffs
location that other companies are
mining intermediately that plain
tiffs have, since the location of de
PENDANTS ditch, moved their dam
from 900 to f,200 feet higher up the
creek, thereby constituting theirs
subsequent to defendants location,
etc. About an equal number OF
contradictory affidavits were intro
duced on either side in support OF
the pleadings. The Judge declared
the affidavits unsatisfactory, contra
dictory and unreliable, and that the
facts in the case should only be
found by a jury having authority to
go on the ground and examine fol
themselves. The decision was prac-
tically as follows: Wilson & Co. had
right to change their dam and con.
tinue their franchise unimpaired,
provided that in doing SO they did
not interfere with the rights OF 9th
ers, but in moving up nearer to de
PENDANTS works they thereby rem
dered it more difficult for defendants
to enjoy the privileges acquired by
their location without interfering
with the convenience Of plaintiffs
therefore plaintiffs could not prevent
defendants from using the same priv
ileges they had been in possession Of
for more than five years, though from
the new location of their dam il
might now be greater damage Il
them than formerly. The applica
ton was denied.
