BURNT FORK CASE
NOW ON TRIAL.
Testimony In Big Water Suit IL Being
Taken at Stevensvllle.

The taking of testimony in the big
Bnrnt Fork water case before Referee
W. Perry Baker began at Stevens
xille Monday. The case is entitled S.
d. Couseli ct al VS. B. F.. Julian ct al.
Originally there were us defendants
but 50 have let their cases 60 by de-
fault and only 125 remain. Nearly all
the attorneys in Ravalli and Missoula
connties, some IS all told, are retained
in the case. The taking Of testimony
will consume about month and it is
estimated will cover about 5000 type
written pages. Referee Baker will
then submit his findings Of fact and
conclusions of law to District Judge
Webater who will pass judgment.
The history Of Burnt Fork water
rigli da,es back to 1853 when Major
Owen built fort on the bank of the
creek just west Of the present town Of
Stevsnsville, and appropriated suffi-
cieut water to irrigate 600 acres Of
land and run his grist and sawmill.
With the aid ct the Catholic mission
aries he constructed . big fume to con-
vey water to the mill. Other white
settlers arrived in the early COS and
have kept coming ever since. The 125
defendants alone claim 81 500 inches OF
water while it is estimated that the
entire stream does not carry more
than fiveor six thousand inches. The
case i very complicated one. The
tangie Of water rights has resulted in
much bad feeling and it will be reliei
to all concerned when the case is fin.
ALLY adiqdicated.
There has been 80 much controversy
over water rights in this valley. one
of the best watered in the world, even
along streams carrying an ample sup.
ply, that it must lead to legal settle
ment of every right on every creek.
When this is once done there will be
no more trouble and doubtless there
will be plenty Of water for all.

a Qed Rancher Kills Another
Dispute Over Water.

although many sympathize with the
aged murderer. Powell has lived on
Three Mile Creek for nearly thirty
years. Recently q man napaed Dar-
ling, of Butte, bought an adjoining
ranch and leased it to Linscott. The
same creek irrigates both ranches,
Linscott, whose place is above Pow
ellis, built a dam across the creek and
diverted much Of the water.
Powell has retained s.. G. Murray,
OF Missoula, as counsel. When seen
at the county jail this morning by a
Western News reporter he talked free
~. He admits the killing and says
that he you'd do it again under the
same rcun1sta noes. He says Lins-
cott was stealing his water and he had
= right to defend his property. He
says that the trouble has been brew
ing for long time; that Linscott had
been stealing his water ever since he
arrived on the creek. They had an
encounter once before and Linscott
handled him very roughly. He. Pow
ell, had sought redress in the courts
but had been unable to secure it. He
had attempted to institute contempt
proceedings but had failed. On the
morning of the killing he went to the
dam and tore it out. He took his gun
with him. After awhile he went
away but returned shortly and found
Linscott rebuilding the dam. He
ordered him to desist and Linscott
started for him. He raised his gun
and fred and Linscott fell. A NOM
ent later Linscott attempted to rise
and Powell raised his gun to shoot
again If necessary. He claims he
acted purely in self defense.
Powell is a native of Wales and 81
years of age. He is a bachelor and
h as lived in the Bitter Root more than
80 years. His victim, Linscott, was
63 years of age and came to the valley
little more than year ago.
Powell, it will be remembered, is
the man who appeared in the state
supreme court at Helena and demanded
the right to plead his own case, as
| told in the Western News at the time.
After he had harangued the court he

In The county Jail last night. He was

An examination of the body disclos-

downward about six inches, coming
out Just below the left shoulder blade.
According to the testimony Of Allan
May and Frank Green, who were
building a fence near by, there were
NO eye-witnesses of the deed. They
had noticed Powell walking up the
creek carrying gun. Shortly after
ward they heard Linscott cry out in
pleading tones: Come! Come! Help!
They were about 100 yards distant
They ran towards the scene Of ths
trouble. When about half way they
heard shot. Upon their arrival they
found Linscott lying on the ground

with rifle in his hands. They dis

should be represented BY counsel. He
declared that if the court would not
,ss.give him justice he would take the
law into his own hands The court
took the view that Powell was very

toms Of courts, and making allowance
for the conditions, refrained from inn

M1ssouLA Wins SHoor,

Missonia, June 16.-The Missoula
Gun club won in the match shoot at
the Missoula traps yesterday by a
score of 1876 to 1873. Hamilton's team
was at disadvantage, which accounts
for their poor showing. The Hamil-
ton team is used to shooting in clear
sky and with slow-moving traps, the
bluerocks always sailing out at a
known angle, while the background of
the Missoula traps is the mountain
range and the traps are all rapid and
no two bluerocks take the same course.
There were thirty bluerocks, and
Forbes of the Missoula team, won the
highest score-2S. The score in detail
is follows:

There is no reasonable excuse for a

it, says al exchange. If you have no
word of commentator to say for your
town. it's institutions or its people, EN-.
igrate. You won't stop the course of
events by going away, neither will
your carping criticism cut any figure
if you remain. The church bells viii
have the same musical ring, the dogs
will play just as briskly, the fish will
bite just as well, and the pure air and
bright sunshine will have the same
hea~lth-giving properties. Speak a good
word for your neighbors if you an; il
you can't. don't everlastingly enlarge
on their faults. If you have become
thoroughly sour and disguised and

away; go somewhere where you car

kEEP UP YOUR CREDIT.

Tho most important asset of any
business man is his credit. Nothing

credit. Nothing can so hamper him in

that credit.
The most powerful safeguard of bus
