Salt River Valley Water Users A5So' citation to the plan of adjudicating all priorties for the irrigation of lands m the valley. Judge J. II. Kibbey, attor- ney for the association, already has had filed suit that Is to include severe thousand land owners, wbo will be re- ouired 10 prove the dates of the first irrigation of the lands they occupy This suit was initiated with the fullest approval of the legal department ol the Geological Survey, as the only means toward determination of conti1lng claims.
 "ln meeting of the Water Users Association, on Monday, however, oppo- sition to the plan was developed among the land owners of late prioritie5. They suggested tbat it would be far easier to set Il date, say of eight or ten years back, beyond which all lands would be held US equal in standing, This view was pushed particularly by represent tatives of the management Of the Arl- zona canal, the largest ditch in the valley, yet one of the relatively late con' structions, with little standing under the Kibbey decision, under which the greater part of the waters of Salt River are distributed.
 "This canal must be acquired by the farmers under it, to be turned into the general rrigating scheme outlined for the valley by the Geological Survey, and the price recei' ed will much de" pend upon the quantity of water finally awarded it as its right. It has over million in stock issue and about $500 .00O bonded debt.
 "The meeting was q noisy one, Very far from harmonious. But it was finally agreed that the priority suit must be continued, as one of the con" ,litions demanded by the government in return for the construction of the Tonto Basin dam. President Fowler of the association submitted a couple or lettefS he had provided himself with, to meet any objections to the plan of settlement. The letters were from Acting Chief En- gineer A. r. Davis of the Geological Survey and Morris Bien, the supervis' ing engineer,
 Zach letter, in effect, declared that operations upon the dam would be sus- pended ii the movement to adjust pri- critics were abandoned. In tbe langu- age of Mr.. Bieu, "It is doubtful if the department would undertake to operate the storage system in the face of the serious conflict of rights tlIat must nee essarly arise if no adjudication of these rights has been made"

Adjusting Arizona Water Rights

the people of Imperial in the adjust ment of water rights and determination of titles in tbe Salt River valley with reference to the construction Of tile Tonto Basin dam and tue bringing of that country under government irrlga- tivn. In any operation ot the National Irrigation Act oil lands in private own srship, and lands imperfectly or parti- ally upplied with water from already existing sources, all the existing rights must be established and adjudicated, in order that the owners cau be justly treated. In the Salt River valley, some of the lands (thooe owning the oldest water righte) have always had u sufficient supply of water Others have only been short of water for part of the time during the drough of the past several years.
 The quantity of water that has been available to supply the later initiated water rights in the Salt River gradually decreased till it reached the vanishing point and then left some people clalm- ing water rights long alter the supply of water WAS apportioned among those who had prior claims to it Now, in order that all these water rights may be properly adjudicated, the Salt River Valley Water Users Association began suit to quiet title to all the waters of Salt River, and every land owner and water user in Salt River valley is haled into court of prove the date when he first began using water
 There has been some water for these lands all the time, and tap to the quan- tity of water avalabl at all times, the lands that were first to be irrigated will be free from any payment for the Tonto Basin dam or any of the govern ments works. Those who have had water nearly all the time will be re- oured to make small payment for these works and dam, and those whose water supply has been less constant, a still larger sum. The amount the land owner must pay increases i'll the same ratio that his present water supply dimlnithes till the point IS reached where tue land has never been irrigated. All after that must pay the same, Or maximum price.
 The following news item from Phoe- nix indicates that this plan is meeting with opposition among the owners of the so-called "late priorities'' as they see if they can overthrow tue govern ments plan they will be able ito escape part of the payment they would 'other- wlse be required to make. During the past five or six years there has been times when the water supply in the Salt River valley WAS so low that none of the farmers had sufficient water for irrigation. It is estimated that the amount tdAe farmers will ha required ito pay to the government on account of tue TontO Basin dam and other works will vary from about five dollars to twenty-five per acre, the five dollar charge being to those with the best jn' complete water supply and twenty-five .dollars to tie lands that have never lheen irrigated.

TROUBLE is FEARED IN JAPAN
Rumors That the People Are Agitaed Over Terms
of the Peace Treaty.--A Strict Censor
ship Of the Press hinted At.

Portsmouth, N. H., Sept Although
the fact that the japanese ENJOYS have
as yet received no message from the
emperor is causing them much anxiety
the work of preparing the peace treaty
for approval and final signature goes
rapidly forward At the meeting of the
counsellors today, 13 of the 10 articles
were completed. There is probability
that the, treaty may be signed late
Monday afternoon.
In the meantime an armistice proc
lamation has been signed by the en-
voys. the popularity of which is that
II does not take effect until after the
treaty Is signed The secrecy that sur
rounds the movements of the Japanese
plenipotentiaries makes 1t impossible
to secure definite information as to
what exchanges have taken place be-
tween the ENJOYS and the mikado. Mr..
Sato, the Japanese spokesman here,
while insisting that there is no hitch,
and declaring that advices from the
mikado are not really necessary, inti-
mates that trouble may be brewing in
Toxic, due to the disappointment of
the people over the waving of an in
demnity and the REIMBURSEMENT of hall
of Sakhalien Island. While it is true
that today Japan has been cut off from
communication with the outside world
through the breaking down of the cable
service. that does not altogether ex-
Dlain 70 the enVOys the continued ST.
lence of the emperor regarding the con-
clusion of the peace treaty.
This has aroused considerable appre-
hension as to whether popular disap-
proval of the work of the ENJOYS here
has produced rioting in Japan, with the
result that the government Is hesitat-
ing whether to assume the responsible
ity for the instructions to accept Rus
sia's ultimatum or whether to place il

all upon the ENJOYS.

all upon the ENJOYS.
Ever since talk of peace was begun
the japanese have only considered II
in connection with large cash indem-
nifty and the cession of Sakhalien ISL
land. Peace on any other terms was
declared to be dishonorable. The with
drawal of these two primary demands
was naturally expected to result in
popular demonstrations. There has
been a persistent rumor here of the es-
tablishment of press censorship in
Japan, and the Toxic correspondents
here who wept in public when notified
of the peace terms, express some doubt
as to whether all of their carefully
guarded reports were permitted to be
published. 1t is believed, however, that
the peace terms have become known
and that the dissatisfaction of the war
party is fermenting public opinion and
causing the assembling of public meet
ings in order to denounCe the govern
ment.
The members of the Japanese mis-
sion here decline tonight to discuss the
situation. Members of the Russian
mission insist that, no matter what the
outcome may be in Japan, the emperor
would stultify himself and bring his
country into reproach before the ma
tions of the world If he should now at
tempt to repudate the work of his en-
voys. The japanese here are very SEN
sitive to public opinion and they have
noted with much concern the tendency
to criticize the mikado for failing to
promptly follow up his magnanimous
action in agreeing to the Russian con-
digion by telegram to the President
thanking him for his assistance in
bringing about peace. He has per-
mitted the czar to come in first with
his congratulatory message and there
by win public favor. when it apparently
was all turning towards Japan.
