WATER RIGHTS DEFINED.
Supreme Court Decides Willow Creek
Case From This County.

The Oregon supreme court has handed
down the following decision in the case
Of Asa T.. Brown Ut al, respondents, vs.
l.. B. Baker ct al, appellants, from
Baker county, Robert Eakin judge |;
affirmed. Opinion by Justice Moore.
Willow creek rises in the Blue noun
tains, flows through the arid lands be-
longing to the parties in this suit and
empties into Powder river. In the
spring it carries 400 inches OF water,
miners measurement, but in the sum
mcr only 30 inches. In 1864 plaintiffs
predecessor diverted water for irrigation
Of his land and later increased the sup.
ply Of water by tapping other streams
and II swamp ut the head of Willow
creek. In 1892 defcndat diverted 20
inches Of water from Willow creek above
plaintiffs and in 1896 diverted 10 inches.
Plaintiffs alledged that this was an in.
fringment Of their rights and brought
this suit for an injunction. The lower
court found that the plaintiffs were en.
titled to 1876 inches Of water up to July
10 and 100 inches thereafter, and en-
joined the defendants from interfering
with the flow Of this quantity Of water.
The supreme court aiiirms this decree,
laying down the following rule of law:
"rhe first settler upon public land
through which u stream Of water flows
may either divert the water apd use it
for II beneficial purpose, or exercise the
common law right prevailing in the Pa
cific coast states, where the modified
rule Of riparian ownership is still in
force, and insist that the stream shall
flow in its natural channel undiminished
in quantity, except when applied to the
natural use OF the upper riparian pro-
pretors, and for irrigation, II the stream
affords sufficient quantity OF water for
the latter purpose"

Payette, in Idaho, for some time, and
finds II to work 10 well on SO cent dirt
that he has no doubt Of the success OF
the Grant county venture. The Crane
creek placers are about 20 miles from
Granite. The dredge boat and ponderous
machinery will be shipped knocked
kown from this city to Granite, whence
it will be hauled by wagon to the dig
gings.
"The mines have been operated by
crude methods for 30 years." Mr.. Rob
erts said yesterday at the Portland,
and the average amount Of dirt moved
annually has been about $500 cubic
yards. Even at this slow rate the placers
have always paid good wages to the men.
Our big dredge will have a capacity of
1000 cubic yards day. The plant will
cost about $25, 900, but we have ground
enough for the next 70 years.
"The presence Of too much water has
worked against operating the mines by
the crude sluice box methods of the
past, as the land il 80 level that the
tailings cannot be run off. The dredge
boat will have the advantage, rs it will
need the water to keep ufoat, while the
buckets are reaching down to bedrock
and bringing the gravel and gold on
board to be- separated. We can run nine
months in the year, rs the frosts will
not interfere with us TO the same extent
as they do with old fashioned appliances.
We hope to have the dredge in operation
early in the fall

MONEY AND MINING
Tendency Is Now to Develop
Promising Prospects.

Despite the fact that the attention of
large syndicates has been somewhat de-
hected from mining enterprises in the
West by the apparent opportunities grow
ing out Of the large consultations of i'm
dustrial and other enterprises, IL il in
teresting to note the general activity Of
smaller capitalists in the intermountain
regions. There has been no period in
the history Of the mining states perhaps
when more activity was evident in the
way Of converting promising prospects
into mines. Capitalists Of the Middle
West whose interests are not syndicated,
and who realize their inability To sue
cessfully compete with the vast aggre.
cations Of organized wealth that will in
due time absorb the speculative oppor-
tunities ut hand, find in the mining
fields of the West ample chances to
cushion the future with velvet and quad
ruplc the money they see tit to invest.
The trend toward promising prospects
and partially developed mines rather
than To the purchase Of great mining
properties, seems to be well initiated,
and promises future Of unequalled
achievement in the mining industry.
When capitalists fully realize that the
investment of II few thousand dollars in
development Of mining property, that
gives every geographical and mineraloyi-
cal evidence Of wealth when properly
exploited, is safer system Of procedure
than to cxpcnd millions for demonstrate
cd property that may pcrchance bc in
the afternoon Of its prosperity, the min.
eral industry will receive u momentum
from which il will never rccedc.

rection was checked through the brutal

We have said that the modern sheep
has points Of utility TO recommend 1t
beyond the sheep Of earlier times. Two
Of the most marked Improvements
which have been made are early ma
turity and both heavier and better
feeces. Il was not until after the Eng
lish mutton breeds were extensively
introduced throughout the states that
such a thing was known in American
markets as a fat lamb. OF the sheep
reaching the markets today a large
majority are under one year Of age.
Lambs are not only the most numer-
Gus but they are IN the most active
demand and. at a considerable advance
in price over sheep. Modern improve
ments in sheep have enabled Us, there
fore, to put a sheep on the market that
Is more valuable pound for pound than
our former mutton product II should
be borne In mind. too, that his early
maturity brings with 1t the possibility
OF cheaper production since we are
able to place the animal on the mar
ket at younger age. Il IS unneces-
sary for me to say that gains Of flesh
and fat are more economically made
when the animal Is still young. It IS
not dif1cult to see, therefore that the
modern sheep is more desirable from
an economic standpoint. The thought
ful farmer considers Of equal import
ance the market price Of his finished
products and the cost Of production.
In this case we have observed an en-
hanced value OF the finished product
and a reduced cost Of production.-H.

the nelghbors are willing to testify
to. as he was careful to hang the deer
on the back porch. where the whole

One neighbor has been unkind enough
TO insinnate that one OF its legs was
broken and that there were other in
dlcations to prove that the deer had
been caught in trap and dubbed to
death. Unfortunately this point must
always remain in doubt unless the
guilty person comes forward and adds
his testimony regarding the facts in
the case. Jones. after seeing that the
deer was hung where the neighbors
could see it. went downtown. collected

FROM This Cause.
Since 1888 the number OF railroad
accidents at crossings at grade has
fallen on 25 per cent. though the vol
ume OF railroad travel in the United
States has largely increased and the
number Of trains is much greater
This decrease is due largely to the
legislation, in which New York was
the pioneer. for the abolition Of am
grade crossings. says the New York
sun The Anti-Grade Crossing law on
New York. adopted in 1897 provided
that steam surface roads thereafter
built must be constructed to avoid an

enues Or highways when carried

That horses remember their racing
days Is evidenced by the performance
Of Rachel B., 2.2Sis. by Allie West, at
the Meadowlands farm one day last
fall. After she had weaned her first
colt By Wood Boy. It was decided to
turn her out in the inheld Of the farm
track. II was expected that the old
mare would cross the track to the tract
Of clover in the inheld. but instead she
went to the stand. took the outside Of
the track and logged around it thres
times, and then. turning above the
wire. took the pole and went around
she kept going until stopped b. the
men. The next day when turned out
she went through the same perform
ance. and she made it necessary for
the farm to find a new paddock for her.
