An important Question.

The question of water rights on in
terstate streams will be one of the
most important discussions at the
coming session of the National Irriga-
ton Congress. DR.. Efwood Mead, VINO
is an authority on irrigation laws, is
the chairman of the committee which
vas charged by the last congress with
the duty of reporting to the coming
session, recommendations looking to
the settlement of questions that are
constantly arising with reference to
interstate waters. DR.. Mead mas been
very active in bringing this matter
before men who are prominently ide1-
titled with irrigation development, es-
pecially in those states where he
question of interstate rights is a Sc
rious one, and without question the
presentation of his report to the con-
gress will p~recipitate one of the live
lest debates of the session. Among
those VINO will participate will be men
contend that the national govern
should exercise jurisdiction ov-
er Interstate waters and others WHO
advocate the right of the individual
states to the control of waters within
boundaries. Since this committee
vas appointed the United States SUI.
preme Court has passed upon the now
famous Kansas-Colorado case, and
this action has given an added impe-
tus to constructive thought on this
subject.

Much in e of water, the country
was visited by a heavy donpour last
night that will be of ilestimable value
in freshening up the range and pro-
viding water for stock. Travellers from
all points in the general directions
mentioned brought reports today of
the showers that fell in their immed-
late localities. The vicinity of the Hon
do reservoir was especially well fav-
ored with a very heavy rain, according
to the reports brought in by residents
of that section.
Herbert SmyrI, driver of today's
auto from Torrance, reports that the
Dad was very heavy all the way to
the other terminal, being heavier at
the farther cad than at this. Ira Brown
VINO returned on today's auto from a
ten days business trip TO Estancia,
reports that the rain extended across
the Estancia valley and to the oun
tains on the other side of the towl of
Estancia. The rainfall was quite heavy
there. 1t was plainly visible that the
mountain country west of here receiv-
ed a heavy rain last night.
Roswell, it seems, got the thin edge
of the storm, but the nice shower that
all the lust and provided sufficient
water for temporary relief and to
up vegetation.
