Ii has been the impression Of the

1t has been the impression OF the
people in the central and lower
parts of the valley that the cause
of the shortage in the rivers water
supply this spr,ng is from small
amount of snow falling in the
mountains during the winter. But
people who are in position to
have correct Information on the
subject declare that this is not the
cause al all but that the water
shortage is caused entirely ty
bitches above taking It all. Ofl
course this conclusion can only be
partly correct for il is fact that
considerably less moister feli dur
ing the winter just passed than
during former winters But this
alone would not make such a
grand difference in the water sup
ply of the canals, from the Union
on down, as is plainly Wis bic. The
chief source of trouble lies in the
fact that during the last few years
a number of new canals IN the
upper end of the valley have been
| constructed and all the old ones Ell
larged. and all are kept rs full Of
water as possible.
/ There IS a right and u wrong
way of appropriating water, the
right way is to SIMPLY take what
water you are entitled to, thereby
Prospecting the rights of Others;
the wrong way is TO take all your
canal will hold whether you need
| il or not md ignore the existence
Q: other rights.
! These water rights will, sooner
mr. later, have 10 be settled ty a
court Of law which will create a
water commission to properly dis
tribute the water TO the different
canals. In suit brought some
years ago it was determined that
the Montezuma of the large canals
was The Oldest, the Central second.
the San Jose third, and the
Union fourth. The amount OF
water that the Montezuma Is en-.
u,led to as u priority right was al
20 decided. The desired point to
be reached now is for the priority
rights Of the balance of the canals
10 be settled and respected. Dur
ing the present spring the Central
the second oldest canal has not al
times had an irrigatn stream,
while canals further up the river
have besa running almost bank full
many times the amount of water
they wouhi have carried when
first constructed. Comp arat,vely
new canals are kept well supplieo
also. When a caas! diverts the
number of inches il first appropri'
lated that is all it is entitled TO un
III the next oldest canals receive
their first appropriation, and new
canals have no right TO touch the
water until older rights than theli's
have been supplied.
| As the canals of the valley are
constantly being enlarged and new
ones being constructed, It seems
to us the best plan, is for those
suffering to stand together and
bring suit 10 have ali the water
rights established and ask for
commission, as u permanent fixture
TO distribute the water. This
would be fair to all and no one
can object to IT.
