WATER WAR ON
IN ; COUNTIES
SAN BERNARDINO is FIGHTING
RIVERSIDE AND ORANGE
MEMBERS FROM FORMER COUNTY
WALK OUT OF MEETING
viii Refuse to Join with Others If
They Insist on the Proposed
Plan in the Dry
Season
Especial to The Herald.1

SAN BERNARDINO, Oct. 14.-The
fight which for years has been waged
against the water companies Of River
side county by the people of San Ber-
nardino valley has opened again as
the result of a stormy session of the
Tri-County Water Conservation asso-
citation, which broke up today at
Riverside, when the four San Bernar-
dino representatives, including H. H.
Garston, president of the Bear Valley
Mutual Water company of Redlands;
George NJ. Colley of this city; E. j.
Yokam, secretary of the association
of Highland, and Kenneth McRae of
Rialto, walked out of the meeting, fol-
lowing the introduction of an amend
ment to the bylaws prohibiting the
diverting of the waters of the Santa
Ana river at seasons of the year when
the flow is insufficient to reach the
diversion dam at Olive, in Orange
county.
The Riverside and Orange members
of the association stood for the amend
ment which the San Bernardino repre-
sentatives term as only a bold move
to furnish the two counties with wa
ter at all seasons Of the year, whether
the orange groves of this county,
through which the stream passes from
its source in the San Bernardino noun
tains were dying for the lack of irri-
cation. The amendment appneu TO
the San Bernardino basin and, al
though Riverside and Orange counties
would receive all the water during the
dry months. this county in which the
stream originates would be forced to
desist from using any portion, II the
flow was insufficient to reach the Olive
dam.
This county will refuse to again join
with the other counties unless the
amendment is thrown out. The resi-
dents of this valley in years past have
spent hundreds of thousands Of dollars
in an effort to prevent Riverside county
companies from draining the artesian
flow from beneath their lands, the wa
ter from which goes to the thousands
of acres of orange land which would
otherwise be unproductive in Riverside
The latest move has been termed
continuation Of the old war, the water
companies of Riverside seeking with
Orange to take a large portion of the
remaining water supply from this val

CAR SHORTAGE C0NFRONTS
COLORADO FRUIT SHIPPERS
Towns on Western Slope In Centennial
State Unable to Send Out
Their Crops

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo, Oct a.
The last forty-eight hours has seen
little change in the car shortage con-
fronting fruit shippers on the western
slope, and the situation is said to be
critical.
A local association, which has on
hand more than fifty cars of fruit, has
been able to obtain only twelve cars
daily. Other points have been suffering
equally and at Delta, Colorado, steps
have been taken to force the railroads
to supply refrigerator cars.
The railways are holding out as
surances that 100 cars will be sent here
in the next twenty-four hours to relieve
the congestion. The fruit output IN
this section requires more than 100
refrigerator cars daily. A lack of stor-
age facilities has added to the serious
ness of the situation.

els, asked by two of the sons of the
dead financier under the trust clause of
the will.
This clause was attacked by the other
two sons, John d. and Adolph Spreck-
els, who asserted that it was a viola
tion of state probate laws.
The petition for distribution was filed
by Rudolph and Claus A. Spreckels,
who are named as trustees and also as
executors of the will. The case has
been before Probate Judge Coffey for
several weeks.
While the present action is not di-
rect attack on the manner in which the
father disposed of his vast estate, it is
believe to be preliminary skirmish in
a great will contest in which many mil
lions of dollars are involved.

NEVADA LAWMAkER
FOR SHIP SUBSIDY
SAYS TRIP TO COAST PROVED
LESSON TO MANY
George A. Bartlett Declares 1t Is Ma
tion's Duty to Coal Its Own
Navy Under Its Own
Flag

George A Bartlett, congressman
from Nevada and one of the ''insur-
gents" who voted for the Fitzgerald
amendments to the house rules and
was also accused by certain eastern
papers of having voted for Cannon
for speaker, is in Los Angeles for
few days stay.
Mr.. Bartlett did not vote for Can
non, but for Champ Clarke, the Demo-
cratic caucus nominee, as the records
show, but he did do the insurgent
stunt on the ship subsidy bill, along
with Hobson of Alabama, and two
other Democrats and, but for the fact
that the other two changed their vote,
the ship subsidy bill sent over from
the senate, would now be law.
"Ship subsidy was originally DEM
ocratic doctrine" said Mr. Bartlett
last night, land but for the negative
sentiment which of late years seems
to have dominated the party, Demo-
Gratis who stand for it would now be
in good standing"
Trip to Coast Instructive
He expresses the belief that the jun
ket of eastern congressman recently
has been a lesson, and that the idle
ships in the Pacific ports, lying along
side of the Japan ships awaiting car
goes, have created a sentiment in ia
Vor of ship subsidy which would re-
suit in legislation in favor of 1t, could
Los Angeles herald., 1909-10-15

the matter be brought up now. His
position in the matter is clearly de-
fined in the following telegram sent
to an eastern newspaper in answer to
a query:
Il have voted twice for ship sub
sidy bills, and will continue the same
policy because I believe it to be ma
tions duty to coal it's own navy under
it's own flag, and national wisdom to
encourage the growth of an American
merchant marine that will have fair
chance on the highways of the sea, if
we are to continue legislation and pol
icies that make for expansion of for
eign commerce and trade relations. .
II do not believe there is any ques-
tion of the passage of a law creating
a federal bureau of mines," said Mr..
Bartlett 81 notice in The Herald this
morning that President Taft has ex-
pressed himself as being in favor
of it.
Opposed in Senate
"Such a bill passed the house of
representatives at the last session by
an overwhelming majority, and but for
opposition in the senate, which seems
opposed to the creation of any more
bureaus, it would have become a law
[ believe, however that this sentiment
will not again prevail and that the
statute will be passed. AS a represen-
tative of a state the principal indus
try of which is mininga it is needless
to say that I am heartily in favor of
such a measure"
Mr.. Bartlett does not take any stock
in the charges made against Cannon
by Parsons of New York, alleging a
trade between the speaker and Tam
many, and declares that such thing
is ridiculous.
Mr.. Bartlett will be in Los Angeles
until Monday, when he will return to
his home in Nevada.

Thought was ever swifter than

he stood beside Cynthy, looking down

horizon, 1t travelled over all the little
bypaths of memory the very approach

six years. Ever since then his thoughts

she was a tiny mite In pinafores and
he was a sturdy lad rejoicing in his

until she was fifteen years old and her
family had moved away to the city,
where there were more advantages for
