1t Protests Against the Diversion of Wa
ter From Lake Tahoe.
The Supervisors have received a letter
from X. F. Fulton, Manager, and Allen q.
Bragg, Secretary of the Nevada State Board
of Trade, protesting against the proposed
diversion of water from Lake Tahoe.
They charge that any one who pretends
to have the right to make such use of the
waters attempts to deceive. Not a drop of
water has been diverted from the natural
channel, and the water has been used in
developing arid tracts and manufacturing
enterprises in Nevada.
The pretenSiOn that water can be saved
to supply the additional demand, it is said,
is as weak MS the rest of the proposition.
For twenty years the water has been stored
in Lake Tahoe by dam six feet high and
drawn off as needed for the uses spoken of
above. No water has been diverted and
there has still been a scarcity.
The capacity of the lake as a storage res
eryoir has been greatly oyerestmated. the
water surface being 1917 square miles, and
the catchment basin outside 800 square
this basin TO raise the lake thirty inches a
year.
The lake is navigable body of water, its
