A Great Proposition

Manager John Dern Of the Mercur,
Utah, before returning to Salt Lake City,
will have made thorough examination
OF work that has been done during his
absence. At present the mine is putting
out 300 tons day of a class Of ore that
enables the company to divide $4,000
monthly among it's stockholders, and
there is every reason to believe that
early this spring the construction of
plant will begin which, when completed,
will enable the management to shovel
it's ore direct from the mine into the
crusher. This plant, according to report
is to be of 500 tons daily capacity, and
the prediction is made that it will be
in operation on or before the 1st day
Of July. OF the mine it may be said that
it never looked better.-Phoenix Repub-

IRRIGATION SUITS
Supreme Court Reverses Spurgeon's
Case-The Perris District

SANTA ANA, Feb I.-Word has been
received here that the supreme court has
handed down a decision in the case of
Spurgeon VS.. the Santa Ana Valley Irri-
CATION company, giving judgment for the
plaintiff. thus reversing the decision of the
lower court. This case has been before the
courts for the past three years and is
Of considerable interest to irrgators. About
three years ago the plaintiff bought some
water. stock, upon which the assessments
had become delinquent, and afterward
applied to the company for a transfer Of
the stock from the land on which 1t was
issued to other land. This the company re-
fused to do. being governed in the matter
by one Of their rules which prohibited the
transfer of stock in such manner. Mr..
Spurgeon thereupon brought suit in the
superior court TO compel the company to
issue the transfer. 1t was first heard by
Judge Clark In Los Angeles, who rendered
decision adverse to the plaintiff, when he
appealed to the higher court with the
above result.
