Judge AinswOrth objected to the

equitable cases but matters capable of
determination by law. Therefore an

a TALK ON WATER
Argument in the Injunt fiOn Suits
Begun Yesterday.

The battle between the lawyers in
the water suits began in district court
yesterday at the close of the hearing
of testimony in the Brockman case
the last to be tried. The argument
was opened by Judge Kibbey, the
counsel for the plaintiffs, who an
nounced at the beginning that ne
would reserve his citation of decisions
for his closing address. Judge kibbey
took the ground that the regulation of
the company requiring water users TO
own or rent water rights was unreal
sonable and that the companies them
selves had not recognized this as d
permanent regulation, but had adopted
it annually by resolution. He would
not contend that his clients should en-
joy the same privileges as share-hold-
ers, who are actual purchasers of
water There should, perhaps, be
discrimination in favor of the latter,
but it is contrary to good policy that
the companies should have power to
absolutely cut off the water supply
from any land owner under the canals.
He deprecated the system of floating
certificates by which water is made
a commodity which may be trans
ferred from one place to another with
out regard to priority of appropriation.
If it can be conveyed to the newly set
tied lands at the lower end of the Ari-
IONA canal, there is no power to pre-
vent the holders of shares from SELL
ing water to persons in Yuma and
turning it into the river to flow down
there. This system, Judge Kibbey
said puts it within the power of the
share owners to ruin any man in the
valley, to force down the value of
lands by compelling the owners to
sell. There can be no permanent set
tlement of water disputes until the
land and water are made inseparable.
Judge Ainsworth replying, described
the history of the establishment of
water shares and the manner in which
they had passed away from the land
into the hands of the men who are
now farming them out to the water
users. The plaintiff, Brockman, him
self had once owned three shares He
had permitted them to pass out of
his hands for valuable consideration
and they had become detached from
the land. One of these shares had in
a round about way found it's way to

A KILLING AT pEHRCE
Chris Robinson Shot by Deputy
Cons table.

A telegram was received yesterday
by Sheriff Scott White of Cochise
county, who is now in the city, inform
ing him of the killing at Pearce on
Monday night of Chris Robinson, one
Of the best known residents of the
county. The telegram was sent by
Deputy Sheriff Burt Grover of Pearce.
Grover is also the constable at Pearce,
and the killing was done by his deputy,
young man by the name of Sidney
Page. The telegram contained no par
ticulars of the tragedy.
The sheriff wired for additional facts.
but at late hour had received no
reply. Robinson, he says, was a highly
respected member of the community.
He had lived in the county for sew
eral years and was a miner. He had
for some time though been conducting
a livery stable and a saloon at Pearce.
He was liked by all who knew him and
had only one bad habit, that Of occa-
sionally drinking too much. He had
not even then the reputation of being
quarrelsome. His slayer, Page, is a
cool, leveI-headed young fellow and
had a good name. The sheriff cannot
make even a conjecture as to the be
ginning of the tragedy. Robinson's
wife has been dead for some time.
Eight children are left orphans.
The sheriff also had a tele-
gram from NacO saying that all
is quiet there since the bloody
affair of last Sunday Rhodes,
the cowboy who was arrested by the
Mexican guards after the killing of
one of their number, and Ryan the
American cowboy has been released.
The war department is considering the
matter of establishing a troop along
the border in the vicinity of Naco-
These frequent outbreaks threaten to
make international complications Tire
sheriff says he dnes not see how the
troops could prevent these outbreaks.
They are always suddenly started by
the Americans on the Mexican side out
of the reach of the troops. They
could be prevented though from COM
ing back across the line and shooting
at the MeXicanS.
