An Important Irrigation Question

Judge b. II. Wegener of our city
has been appointed by District
Judge Sprigg Shackleford to act as
referee in important Montrose water
cases involving the change of points
Of diversion of water rights from
places down the Uncompahgre to the
Montrose and Delta canal. The mat
ter is far reaching one in that the
question Of public policy in thus
changing the point of water diver
sion is one peculiar to the irrigated
west and has never been fully de-
cided by our courts.
Very difficult and little under
stood questions of seepage are in
volved As well as the public policy
which would allow a locality in
which business places had grown up
around irrigated land to be made a
desert again because some powerful
rival bought up the necessary water
and used it elsewhere. For instance
if points Of diversion can be changed
at will, it becomes possible for Mon
trose or Delta fruit growers to come
to Gunnlson county, buy all the wa
ter rights on our less valuable grass
land and transfer them to lower
fruit land. And by the same token
and under the mischievous theory
of the Forestry Department that the
water is more valuable lower down
vast sections of Colorado would be

made a desert and the water trans
ierred toj other states The Bible
tells us that The blood is the life.
We Of the west may well say that
the water is the land.
The is a somewhat similar case TO
that decided by Judge Bailey at
Buena Vista a year ago in February
where the Otero Ditch company had
bought sixty three feet of water in
Chaifes and Fremont counties and
sought to use it near Pueblo. The
Judge decided that such change was
contrary to public policy, since if
the water is used high up in the
spring it can be used low down later
in the season, whereas if used only
at Pueblo the spring floods ran to
the sea and were lost for ever. Tes-
timony OF Prof. Carpenter ran to the
effect that water of the Cache la Pou-
DIRE was actually used four times
over in irrigation.
Now the the question Of diverting
10 higher point on the stream
would -eem to have this point in
its favor, but there still comes in the
first question noted above, as to
whether such transfer does not in
irrigated districts amount to a vir-
tual transfer of the landed interest
and SO disturb other values and other
established rights.

Work In Unity.

The Fourth of July celebration at

able enmity between the people of that
place and the citizens of Beach, who we're
present 800 strong The Beachites each
wore ribbon bearin the lcgned. Boost
for Beach and from selections from TIE
account of the celebration appearing in
the Wibaux Pioneer we arrive at the con-
clusion that the citizens of Wibaux did not
fully appreciate the spirit of the movement
At any rate. the delegation wearing the
badges were mentioned as "Pikers" and
Cheap Skates" and the hustling Beach
Commercial Club is preparing to mature
a lemon as big big as COW for the dele
cation of the Wibauxites. The ribbons
were unnecessary as everybody knows
about Beach. AS hosts of the day the
people of Wibaux might have congratulate
ed the successful ball team and let it go
at that. Every town in the west has the
same fight to make for population and
prosperity and these can only be secured
by unity and fair dealing. The man in
Wibaux who knocks Beach to the new
conner hurts Nibaux and the rule will
work both ways. Friendly rivalry is a
good thing and desirable. but hard knocks
and biting insults will accomplish more
harm than good-The Post.
