Hiqh Line Canal Controversy.

Palisadc.-ln an effort to prevent
costly litigation to the people and the
government In the building OF the High
Line canal In the Grand valley. Init,
ed States District Attorney Thomas
ward Jr.. has prepared to call q con.
ference with the various owners OF
water rights In the Palisade and
Grand Junction districts. which will
he held either In Denver or Grand
Junction within the near future.
This action was decided upon by Mr..
Ward after receiving notice from
Washington to effect settlement with
the water users. II possible. Over a
week ago Referee Guy Sternberg. who
was appointed to adjudicate the differ.
ences between the government and
water owners. decided the Reclama-
tion Service was only entitled to water
rights from - the time 1t began actual
work on the High Line. In 1908. The
government contended It's rights dated
back to 1902.
This decision failed to give the gov
ernment sufficient water to operate Its
canal. and May s was the day set for
arguing the matter before District
Judge Shackelford OF Grand Junction.
Now 1t is hoped to offer terms OF set.
tlement to the power companies near
Palisade who hold 4 large part OF th,
Grand river water rights. and secure
sufficient water to permit work to go
forward on the High Line at once.
Should the case be carried to the Unit
ed States Supreme Court 1t would be
several years before decision would
be handed down necessltating that
much delay on the project.
