ers ask to be under the Riverside
Pumping District is all brought under

pose the promoters of the West

were made against the builders and

fill volumes. However, these opposers
of the canal are receiving as much ben

in valuation from $500 and $1,000 an
acre to 10000 and $4,000 an acre.

more than to exclude their land from
