Greeley.-An important decision has
been rendered by District Judge Gar

Reservoir Company is allowed to trans

preparation in the Poudre river of the
Canon Canal Company. The I.arimer
& Weld, the new Cache La Poudre, the
new Mercer, the Laramie canal No.
and the Arthur ditch, all contested in
court against the transfer. The Canon
canal and its appropriations were
owned by the Poudre Valley Ditch and
Reservoir Company, but the canal was
washed away by floods in 1904, since
when the Canon canal waters have not
been used by its owners and thus 9TH

Judge Garrigues sustained the claim
of the Poudre Valley Reservoir Com

twenty-six feet of water, the appropria-
tion of the Canon canal, subject to
other priorities. The Canon canal is
one of the Oldest bitches on the Pou-
DIRE, the appropriation having been
granted in 1865.
