Mosca Herald B. G.. Bearden is
circulating petition this week
asking the Governor to call upon the
legislature now in session to mem
oralize the President and congress of
the United States to consider and
adjust the situation that now exists
in reference to the building of res
ervoirs on the upper Rio Grande riv-
er and it's tributaries. This action
is made necessary by ruling of the
Interior department made several
years ago, on account of the interna-
tional dispute between the United
States and Mexico regarding the di-
version of the waters of the Rio
Grande river. This ruling prevents
the perfectiug of title to reservoir
sites on account of the absurd claim
of interfering with the navigation of
the river further down. This re-
strictiop is proving a hindrance to
the progress of irrigation i'll this val
