Water Rights.

Judge Decker. of the District court
in Denver. recently decided question
that will be of interest to users of wa
ter for irrigation. A. had nsed water
from canal on certain tract of land
tor term of years. He was the owner
of share or part of share of stock
in the company that owned the canal.
This year he bought another tract of
! company to furnish water on account
| of his interest so that he could use 1t
I on his new tract of ground as well as
| on the ground on which he had first
used water, Judge Decker decided
| that the right to use the water went
with the land and the place of applica-
| tion cOuld not be changed from the
| tract for which appropriation was first
made under or by virtne of such first
| appropriation to an after acquired tract
| of land. This is in accord with the
doctrine indicated by the Supreme
Court of our state. 1t would be well
for our farmers if they would ooserve
this rule of law. There have been
many attempts to deal in water and
and water rights us if the water or the
right to use the water were to be bar
tered and traded separate and apart
from the actual beneficial use TO which
the water has been applied and for
which use the right has been acquired.
This opinion also gives us more au-
thority for what we some time ago
said in these columns about the public
being entitled to the water in the nat
ural streams unless the water was be-
ing actually applied to the use for which
the right existed. The people need
clearer legislation on the subject. 1t
should be the duty of some officer, the
water commissioner, to see that water
is actually used when taken from the
natural streams. The state, the people
at large, still retain the right to control
the water and ence has il right to de-
mand the gr -sfs st economy, consistent
with the eeeSSities, in those who
avail them. y eS of the grant from the
state. 1t is not to be presumed that
because the state gives privileges it
furnishes an eternal right to and ever
lasting barhed wire for the world.

A tenement house IRE comes to start the cat

A tenement house fire comes to start the cata-
logue OF horrors Tor the second half OF 1855. The
building was one OF those wretched rookeries

tween larger and better structures, and hlled
from cellar 10 attic with poverty-stricken crea-
lures who are trying 20 solve the problem OF living
on next TO nothing, and earning that by working
eighteen hours out OF the twentyrour. The fircwas
caused by the explosion OF a Kerosene oil stove,
which ought never TO have been allowed In such
house. New York city, where this casualty in
volving the death OF fifteen persons and the
serious wounding OF many more occurred. has a
code OF building laws, which, had they been
properly framed and well observed or enforced,
would have provided against such things But
they have been neglected, like everything else in
the way OF minute regulation In great city. Yes
terday's disaster ought TO impress the lesson in
New York and other cities, that not only is the
utmost vigilance necessary In making and enfOrc-
ing regulations for the public safety when build
ings are first put up for human occupancy, but that
frequent inspection Is also required 10 keep the
authorities assured that their orders are obeyed,
and that houses originally well built have not be-
come unsafe through long use or misuse.
