lost control of the horse. He did not
judge the speed of the fast approaching
car correctly, and as he suddenly real
lied that he was about to be struck
by the on-coming car a horse and
buggy loomed up in his path, forcing
him to drive in front Of the car and
preventing him from turning out.
The car struck Johnson's wagon with
terrific force. but at the same instant
the double buggy struck the rear of the
half overturned vehicle, throwing 1t
from the track and hurting the men
from the seat and from the path of the
car.
Johnston and Slotham sustained
slight bruises. Freed by the double
collision the horse that had been at

away and was stopped at First and
Rivera streets. The injured men were

the accident and with the help of a few
witnesses cleared the street of the rem
nants of Johnson's buggy. The officer
was unable to learn whether the two
women and a man who were occupants
of the double buggy were injured. Be-
fore the few witnesses were through

enlar gements thereof to the Tur-
ner ditch and the Beaver Dam
ditch, the headgate of said Turner
ditch being three or four miles
further up the stream than the
headgate of the said Clark &
Wade ditch and situated on the
south bank of Minnesota creek at
point whence the north west
corner of section one township
fourteen south of range ninety
one west of the sixth principal
meridian bears north As deg. IS
min. west 562 feet, and the head
gate of said Beaver Dam ditch
being six or seven miles further
up the stream than the headgate
of the SAID Clark & Wade ditch
and situated at a point on Lake
creek, a tributary of the North
Fork of the Gunnison river from
which the common corner be-
tween sections IL. -, l3 and IA
in township fourteen south of

sixth principal meridian bears
north 60 deg. west 1861 chains.
And it appearing to the court
from the evidence submitted that
the petitioners propose to utilize
all of said priorities at the new
points of diversion and at all
times during the irrigating season,
the court further finds that the
appropriators of water under the
Clark & Wade ditch have not at
all times during the period OF low
water in said streams used the
full amount of waters decreed to
said ditch. viz. s. I6 cubic feet of
water per second of time, but at
times have permitted the waters
so decreed. to said ditch to be
shut out of said Clark & Wade
ditch and remain in the stream
and be used by the respondents,
who are junior appropriators OF
water from said stream, and that
such waters have been used by
such junior appropriators during
such times in each irrigating sea-
son when they were not diverted
by said Clark & Wade ditch; and
further, that said water has also
been used at times by said junior
by loans made to
them by the owners of said Clark
& Wade ditch; that said junior
have thereby be.
come vested with rights in such
use of such water when not so di-
verted or used by said Clark &
Wade ditch; that if the said point
of diversion is changed to the
said Turner ditch and the said
Beaver Dam ditch, the said
bitches will divert and use, dur
ing all of the irrigating season, all
of the waters so decreed to said
Clark & Wade ditch which pc
titioners seek to change, and will
deprive the junior appropriations
of the partial use of said waters
heretofore by them enjoyed when
not so diverted or used by said |
Clark & Wade ditch or under said |
Clark & Wade priorities, and on |
The newspaper., 1905-10-20

this account the point of diver
sion of all of said waters which
the petitioners seek to change
can not be changed without in
juriously affecting the vested
rights of the respondents.
The court further finds that a
part of said priorities have here
tofore. for the period of four or
FIVE years, been diverted through
the said Tuner ditch and used
upon lands hereunder, the re-
mainder OF said priorities flowing
down the stream to the Clark &
Wade ditch and its engagements
and utilized there so far as
needed, without any marked in
furious effect to the rights of re-
spondents.
1t is therefore ordered, ad-
judged and decreed by the court
that change in the point of di-
version of four cubic feet of water
per second of time from the said
Clark & Wade ditch and its en-
largements to the said Turner
ditch and the said Beaver Dam
ditch be and the same is hereby
permitted.
1t is further ordered, adiudged
and decreed that the remainder
of said priorities Nos. l, > I, and
s be allowed to flow down said
stream as heretofore, for the use
and benefit of the parties law
fully entitled thereto; and further,
in relation to the claims of re
spondents, that their rights TO
the use OF water for domestic
purposes will be injuriously af-
tected by said change, the court
finds that in view of the fact that
the remainder of said priorities
is to flow down the stream as
heretofore, said domestic rights
will not be injuriously affected.
and it is therefore unnecessary
for the court to determine whether
or not such alleged injuries are
material in proceeding of this
character.
1t is further ordered that petit
tioners and respondents herein
each pay their own costs.

OUR ELECTRIC LIGHTS.
Council Taking Steps to Acquire
Local Plant.

AS appears elsewhere in the
Council Proceedings, the guaran
tee of the Booster that The
Franchise Ought and Will be
Granted" was merely pipe
dream. The council turned down
the proposition in direct conform
ity with the expressed will of the
people at the spring election.
An unpleasant and ill-advised
proceeding followed the next
evening when Mr.. Beezley turned
off the lights and shut down the
plant pending the question of
whether the city would buy his
plant or not A meeting had
been specially called to take the
matter up, and shutting down the
plant served no good purpose,
but on the contrary inconveni
enced many, lost the owner of the
plant some money and occasioned
considerable bad feeling.
The council met as previously
arranged and appointed Nelson,
Zaun and Spencer a committee to
confer with Mr.. Beezley and Sc
cure mis- best terms for sale to
the city of his plant. This COM
mittee took the matter up the
next morning and as result OF
the conference agreed to submit
to the people a proposition to
buy, on terms as follows: The
question of value to be settled by
the board to select
one member, Mr. Beezley one
and the two thus chosen
to select a third. Their invoice
price so made to be the sum
which would be submitted to the
voters in the form of a PROPOSE
ton to buy. In conformity with
this decision and agreement the
board selected Milton Spencer as
their representative to take an in
voice OF the plant.
The matter has not progressed
far enough so we can give the
names of the other members. 1t
S deemed probable that Mr..
Beezley will act tor himself and
hat the two will reach an amic-
able decision without calling in a
.hird party.
Therefore it may be conser-
stated that this city will
soon own its own plant. Sure it
$ that if no agreement can be
cached the municipality will
very soon take steps to build a
plant of its own.
The NEWSPAPER is satisfied
hat if fair proposition is ever
placed before the people it will
