nights ago for roaming the streets,

Home for safe keeping, was sent

Keyser. The girl came here the first
part of last week, telling people whom
she met that she belonged to or ex-
pected to engage with Downie and
Wheeler's circus which exhibited in
this city last Thursday. This story
was a fabrication, however. and she
was arrested late the following night
for street walking. The moral iniiu-

have little effect on her character
and she was sent home to her peo-
pie.

COMMENT ON
THE DECISION

No one should conclude that the
injunction issued by one of the state
courts TO prevent the reclamation
service from digging an irrigation
ditch across ranch is designed to
put stop to the reclamation pro-
ject involved.
There would be no question about
the right to construct the ditch if
adequate compensation was assured
the owner of the property. The
right of eminent domain would be
inv oked, and that would settle the
matter.
The conflict has arisen over the
sact that the reclamation service
claims that it is under no obligation
20 compensate the owner at all. 1t
bases this claim upon the fact that in
issuing patents to homestead land
the government reserved in general
terms a right-of-way through the
land for any irrigation bitches it
might desire to construct.
Whether this reservation of a
right-of-way is sufficiently definite
to give it validity is an open ques-
ton. The answer may at last de-
pend upon whether the route through
private property is the only one
available. At best, however. it is
anything but generous for the gov
eminent, acting through the recla-
nation service, to insist upon a res
ervation which throws a burden up
on a particular homesteader in ex-
cess of what other private property
has to bear. 1t ought to pay what
ever damage construction of the
ditch may cause.-Denver Republi-
