An Interesting Case Between Wyoming
and Colorado Developing.
CHEYENNE, Wyo.. Nov. liza novel
question is being raised by the proposed
tapping of the Big Laramie river, in
Colorado, by recently organized COM
pany. The Big Laramie has its source
in mountainous section of Laramie
county. Colo. It's source is fully twenty
five miles from the Wyoming state line,
and of course wholly within the juris-
diction of the state of Colorado. Col
orado, as well as Wyoming, has been
granted full ownership of the waters
within its borders. A company
has been organized in Colorado
to divert the waters of The
Big Laramie for the first
five or sir miles of its source. The
work will be performed entirely upon
Colorado soil The water will be di-
rected to Chambers lake, the head
waters of the Cache-la Poudre, and
through that stream be directed to the
irrigation and reclamation OF Colorado
soil This scheme of the Colorado peo-
pie will affect the water rights OF a
large number of Wyoming people. The
town of Laramie gets its msin water
supply from this stream. Should the
upper six miles of the stream, which
is fed by the perpetual SHOWS Of
Northern Colorado, be divided, all Of
these parties would suffer severely, al
the stream would practically be robbed o1
all its water. The great question is
can the Colorado parties be prevented
from taking the water? Colorado i
supreme within its own boundaries il
its ownership of water. but the Wy
oming people contend that their Ions
pre-existing water rights can not be dis
turbed by the Colorado people. 1t Is
however, question which the Unite'
States courts only can settle, and con
certed movement will be made by tn
Wyoming parties interested to have
decision rendered speedily.
