about three o'clock came to the creek

CAN DO NOTHING UNTIL
WATER RIGHTS ARE SETTLED
This, T. A. Noble Says, is the Position
in Which the Government Finds
Itself Placed.

III. A. Noble, engineer of the United
States Geological survey, was in the
city yesterday and met with number of
prominent citizens in the Commercial
club rooms for the purpose of discussing
matters in relation to irrigation, the
question of water rights and the storage
under government supervision Of water.
Mr.. Noble had not the slightest doubt
that the government was fully aware of
the feasibility of immense irrigation pro-
jects in the Yakima valley, or that it was
not anxious to undertake the same,
since it is the governments policy to en-
courage irrigation in every manner pos
sible. The people Of this valley, he
stated, seemed to be unanimous in fa-
vor of getting together and having an
understanding as to the rights of each
irrigator. This was highly essential; he
stated emphatically that the United
States government could not and would
not undertake any irrigation project in
the valley until the question of water
rights had been settled definitely. He
was confident that the question could be
settled without litigation or trouble.
The plan regarding storage, he said.
was to take up the surplus water during
the flood season, and later. wnen it
was most needed, to use the river as
canal for its distribution throughout the
valley. In reply to question he said
that he believed when the users of wa
ter agreed on the water rights and ap-
preparations, and the government under
took the storage of surplus waters, eacn
user could be supplied with water for
which he would in the future desire to
government would not 60 ahead with the
building of additional reservoirs as need
ed.
A general discussion followed Mr.. No
ble's talk, and the resolution proposed
by Edward Wnitson was adopted, to the
effect that it was the sense of the meet
ing that the method of procedure pro-
posed by Mr.. Noble was feasible, and
that it met the hearty Endorsement of
the meeting; it provided, however, that
the people of this section were in favor
of only sucn provision as made posi-
bic the equal distribution of stored wa
ter over all parts of the watershed.
Mr.. Noble thought the resolution was
all right. The government, he said,
needed little encouragement to get it
to expend the money in the available
fund, and it was necessary primarily for
the people to get together and reach
some agreement as to existing water
rights on basis of the amount of wa
ter actually in the river. On motion of
Mr.. Strobach it was provided for the
appointment of committee of five, in
GLIDING the president of the Commercial
club, to further the interests of irri.

terprise. Chairman Lombard announc-
ed that he would take the matter under
