" HO IS ENTITLED TO THE WATER
RIGHTS?

CARSON, New, Oct. 3l.--A serious
legal problem has been passed up to
the attorney general by State Engin
er Thurtell, who is unable to decide
just who is entitled to the water rights
in the Walker River Indian reserva-
tion which was thrown open last Mon
day.
Long before the hour of the opening
arrived in the hallway leading to the
state engineers Office was jammed
with mining men and spectators seek
ing to file upon the waters of Cat,
creeks, within the reservation. The
men struggled with each other for
first place and finally formed a line
that waited patiently until moon came.
One man broke from the line and en-
tered the office before the others who n
it opened, but was compelled to re-
sumo a place, against which he loudly
protested. The applications were then
received in turn, each a few seconds
behind the other until all were on re-
cord.
Inasmuch as all the applicants were
on hand at noon, the time of the open
ing, State Engineer Thurtell is unable
to state at this time who should have
the PRIOR rights.
The waters of the creek are highly
valuable for mining, milling, power
and townsite purposes,
