AFFECTING WATER RIGHTS.
Federal Authorities Advised as to Pro-
visions Of Montana Irrigation Law.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5. - United
States Attorney Rasch for Montana,
at the request of the United States
geological survey, has rendered an
opinion as to whether the prosecution
OF the necessa sary surveys preliminary
to locating lines OF canals and the po-
sition of diverting works, and the
making of borings to determine the
feasibility of proposed dam sites are
a sufficient compliance with section
1887 of the civil code of Montana.
This section provides with refer.
ence to the appropriation of waters in
that state that, within 40 days after
posting the notice of appropriation,
the appropriation must proceed to
prosecute the excav alton or construc-
tion of the work by which the water
appropriated is to diverted, and must
prosecute the same with reasona BILE
diligence to completion.
1t is his opinion that the work now
being prosecuted prior to the actual
Ava oAoA ~ Vic " ouCA dpplOpIl dICu
is work within the purview of the sec.
tion of the Montana code, and which,
by it's terms is to be commenced with
in 40 days after the posting of the
notice.
In the Encyclopedia of Law, dealing
with the subject OF irrigation, on the
question OF diversion of water, on the
very point upon which inquiry is
made, the attorney general calls at
tention to the fact that the following
is laid down upon this propositions:
ut is obviously essential, in order
to effect an appropriation, that the
waters should be actually diverted for
the intended use. The appropri ator,
in order to hold his right, must begin
the actual work of diversion by sur.
vey or otherwise within a reasonable
time after the first assertion of his
claim, and must prosecute the work to
completion with reasonable dill
gence.'

County Treasure, Restrained.

Last Tuesday. in Pueblo. Judge
~ w. Dixon issued writ OF TEN.
porarY injunction against c. A.
Beerbohm, as an individual, and
c. A. Bccrbohm. as treasurer OF
Otcro county. restraining him from
commencing proceedings against
thessPueblo aud State Line railway
company to collect taxes levied on
the assessment made Tor the year
1901, says the Pueblo Chieftain.
The Pueblo and State Line railway
is division OF the Missouri
Pacific.
The complaint states that from
1895 to 1902. except the year 1901,
the assessments were made by the
state board Of equalization and
that during that time it ranged
from s243.257 to s346, 500, and
that on those assessments taxes
were paid. The assessment for
1901, the plaintiff alleges, was
made by a board OF assessors es-
tablished by the Ihirteenth Gen.
eral Assembly, and in that year
the assessed valuation was S73o,-
o55, making the taxes sI9,655 oS.
or about sio, 900 more than had
been previously paid. This the
company refused TO pay. and the
history OF the litigation in district
and United States courts is recited,
that the act of the thir.
teenth general assembly was null
and void.
The company has offered to |
settle for $I2, 900, according to |
the petition. butthe county COM
nissioners of Oteto county have
refused to compromise, and Coun.
ty Treasurer Beerbohm is now
threatening to certify the 1901
assessment to the Pueblo countvI
treasurer in order to force a levi
on the railroad. The injunction
will restrain the Otero county
treasurer from certifying this as
sessment to Treasurer Mckee, oil
Pueblo county, for collection. |
The law provides that the levyl
shall be made in the county where
the Offices of the railroad are To-
;ated. i
