San PABLO FIGHTS
PEOPLES COMP ANY
Farmers IN Wide Area Declare
Corporation Is Drying Up
Their Wells

A suit begun yesterday by David
Goodale. farmer of San Pablo. marked
the inception OF a determined legal war
fare the residents of that, entire section
purpose TO wage against the Peoples
water company. which. with the grant
ing OF fnjunctions and prolonged litiga-
tion in the courts. promises TO cripple
Oakland's water supply and play havoc
with the company's stock. The farm
ers have united in lighting the company.
for In a wide section tapped BY the cor
p0rat1on's ditch the wells have gone
dry and the agriculturists find them
selves in a quandary to secure water
Tor their stock and their domestic needs.
Goodale brings suit through Attorney
K H. Cross, and also files a petition for
an injunction restraining the company
from further securing water from the
contested section Many small suits
have been fled within the last few days.
and though Goodale asks for only $10,-
600 and the requests Of the other COM
pfainants are for comparatively small
amounts, the united movement is a Sc
rious check to tie water company and
may result in the entire prohibition OF
further activity in the san Pablo eoun-
try, an area which has been relied upon
TO furnish a large amount OF water Tor
the needs of the transbay cities.
The injunctions themselves, though
they be but temporary, will result in
seriously Gripping the water company.
for this Is a season when water is far
from plentiful, and every source of sup
ply is being called upon for it's maxi
mum amount.
