$165,400.
On account OF the vast quantity of

IRRIGATION DECISION.
Lake County Ranchmen Win Against
Otero Project.

Denver-A Buena Vista dispatch
says: At an adjourned session of the
District Court Wednesday the decision
of Judge Bailey was rendered in the
case of the Otero irrigation district.
petitioners for the diversion of water
from this and Lake county to Otero
county, east Of Pueblo. The finding
was for the protestants and much
pleasure is evinced by the ranchmen
of this district. who consider the re
suit victory for them
The decision holds that the transfer
or change would materially injure the
vested right of junior appropriations of
water rights of the Arkansas river and
Its tributaries and that it would be i'm
possible under the testimony adduced
to arrive with any degree of accuracy
at the amount of damage that would
accrue. Nor did the court believe it
possible TO bring testimony that
| would materially aid in arriving at n
fair and Just estimate of the extent of
such injury. 1t says further:
From personal experience and from
the testimony adduced the court finds
that the use of water upon the lands at
and near the source of the Arkansas
river as heretofore used for irrigation
purposes is OF material benefit to all
| other appropriations and users of water
on the stream. both above and below.
and this too without regard to the
question as to whether the priority so
affected were senior or junior to those
| sought TO be transferred.
such use upon the lands in times
of water abundance, when all priori-
| ties are substantially satisfied, acts as
a conservation of water and sends it
down the stream later in times of
scarcity as grateful supply to all
| users, which water, but for such con
| servation. would have long before and
when no use could have been made of
| it, passed down the river and TO the
| sea"
| Attorneys for the petitioners gave
! notice of appeal to the Supreme Court
and were given sixty days to file a
| bond and ninety days to prepare bill
of exceptions.
The suit was brought by the Oterc
irrigation district to secure the diver
| sion of ninety-two cubic feet of water
from District No. II to the eastern
part of the state to District No. II
The computed value of the water in
volved is in the neighborhood OF
$4,000, but the value of land af
fected by the proposed diversion
| it has been estimated would be
increased in an amount close tc
| 100000 for every cubic foot OF
water sought to be diverted. TAX
ing Professor Carpenters estimate
that cubic foot of water will ir
rigate $50 to 200 acres of land, ant
using the lower figures, it will be seer
that the collateral amount involved il
the suit is considerably more thar
$400, 900, 900.

Charges Against Woodard Fall.

Denver.-For some time past the
governor has been giving attention to
the charges filed against Game and
Fish Commissioner Woodard. They
were voluminous enough; SO also We're
the answers of the accused. But IT is
stated that the governor has not been
able to find any ground for the re-
moval of the commissioner. 1t is quite
possible that had Mr.. Woodard a little
more tact he would get along better,
but the governor cannot remove on
that ground alone. The accounts of
the Office seem TO be all right. AL
though the complaints are not sus
tanned, the filing gave the governor
the opportunity to investigate and to
recommend improvements in the con-
duct of the office
