OF irrigation division No. ! says the
scarcity of water resulted in bringing
up questions never before thought of,
AMI that the drought WAS fruitful
propagalor OF litigation. as well as mn
injury To farming interests. Concern
Ing the injunction method of getting
water. which he calls a ''trick." the su-
perintendent says:
1T is becoming understood that the
value Of water for irrigation IL very
much above the price that has been
set upon IL. consequently the very best
legal talent is being employed To Sc
cure the right To Use the water by Jun
ior appropriations. very often To the In
Jury OF older and senior appropriations.
4 favorable procedure In ihis line OF
action Is in obtaining the Issuance
from the county courts OF Wit
Of temporary Injunction. restraining
the officers OF Ill. Irrigation depart
ment from enforcing the laws niade
and provided for the proper distribu'
tion Of water for irrigation purposes.
Especially Is this true where the inter
ests of one irrigation district come into
conflict with those of another.
.-,rhis oiiic. has becn seriously EN-
.barrassei In the performance OF It's
duties by this trick, for IL is y trick:
although legal one. whereby canal
company. or district. can hold the wa
ter To which It is not entitled for a
period Of tim. and. when a hearing IL
had, ask for a dismissal OF complaint
nnd the dissolution of the injunction
on payment OF costs. which they can
well afford 10 pay. ! would suggest
that something la done To remedy
this. either by the coming Legislature
or by a ruling OF ,..- supreme Court ON
