FARMERS BLOCK
WORK ON CANAL
Refusal of Two to Deed Rights
of Way May Check Big
Water Project
Especial Dispatch TO The Call
TSpec;ol Disrotch TO The Call

WILLOWS. Dec 21.-The failure Of
q compromise between the Sacramento
Valley irrigation company and the
farmers Of Colusa county was due to
the refusal Of George H. Able and Mrs.
Swinford Of Williams to deed rights
OF way 10 the canal company. George
H Able demanded that the company
pay him SO. 900 and water at a rate to
be fixed by the supervisors, while Mrs.
Swinford asked for s.. 900 and water.
The remainder Of farmers whose land
the canal passes through are willing
10 deed TO the company a right of way
with water at a reasonable rate as
compensation.
The Sacramento Valley irrigation
company has expended $6.0OO.000 in
completing the old canal and building
additional laterals in this county, and
intended to spend as much more in
Colusa to bring that county under irri-
cation. Colusa county. however. will
be overlooked unless the two farmers
alluded 70 grant rights Of way to the
irrigation company.
The water has been brought as far
Willows. and next spring and summer
there will be about $4,000 acres under
irrigation
The canal has been about two-thirds
completed in Colusa county, but work
has been suspended on account of the
injunction cases which have been filed
restraining further work on the ditch.
Several Injunction suits were instituted
in this county by farmers who desired
the company to give them privilege Of
using water at a reasonable rate.
These concessions will be granted. and
in all probability water will be flowing
in the largest canal in the United
States as far south as the Colusa
county line next spring. The main
ditch has been completed to the Colusa
county line and hundreds of miles OF
laterals have been eXcavated.
Besides completing this immense
canal as far as this city the company
has brought hundreds of people to this
section, and the town of Willows in
one year has jumped from a population
OF ] 800 to $500, and every day sees
dozens of new settlers. The same
thing viii happen in Colusa county If
the farmers agree to give the irrigation
company rights Of way.
The large siphon across Walker
creek, a years undertaking, will be
finished in time TO allow the water to
cross this stream before spring A
number Of other siphons are being
built at intervals along the canal
