The first great aerial fleet ever as
sembled in any country for military
review passed today in the sky over
Minister of War Miller and number
of army officers and about 5000 civil
ian spectators. There were Y aero
planes and dirigible balloons in the
armada. They were decorated with
the French colors. AS the fleet swept
over the reviewing stand the specta-

iasm.
An hour before the parade began
the sky was clouded by flying mono
planes and large balloons. There were
a number of narrow escapes but the
official ceremony passed off without
accident.

declared Mr.. Kluge in discussing the

Boost for Local Man.

The case has been a very compli-
Gated and technical one, and the
findings of Attorney Guy V. Stern
berg as referee were upheld in ev-
cry particular.
Congress Only to Set Aside.
Judge Cavender ruled, by quoting
federal and state statutes, that the
waters of the state are subject to ap-
preparation by any one. The United
States government is entitled only to
the same rights given an individual,
and has no right unless 1t has act
ually started construction on the
ditch Congress made this law and
no department of bureau can change
it-only congress can"
Constitutionality Clause Overruled.
The contention of the government
that the state constitution is in viola
tion to the federal lawi n this latter
instance was touched upon lightly by
the Judge. He denied that the claim
between the state constitution and
the federal law was applicable to a
reversal of the decision of the ref
cree.
This case has attracted national at
tention. 1t involves one of the great
est and most important problems of
national and state rights and the eX-
tent of its Importance particularly to
the irrigated west could hardly be
measured. In these respects the case
is the most important and the most
interesting ever tried in western Col
orado. The decision is far reaching.
This decision has been eagerly
awaited by the legal fraternity
Il 4 Ip
of the national government and of
various state governments.
The attorneys in the case, partic-
ularly those for the irrigation com
panies, have had to argue the great
case and its various phases without
precedent. 1t was truly brilliant
legal battle, based solely on princi-
pie.
No referee in a western state ever
had a more complicated or more
important case effecting the conflict
of the rights of the nation and the
for decision than Attorney Guy V.
Sternberg of this city, found it his
duty to conduct. The careful. the
able, and the superior manner in
which Referee Sternberg handled this
litigation of national importance and
one which required a great deal of
time and a vast amount of research,
is proven by the sweeping and com
plete approval of his report, so siren
uously objected to by the attorneys
for the federal government.
One of the most interesting and
important, if not the most impor-
tant, phase of the case, argued by
the local attorneys at the April
hearing was that affecting the power

UNITED STATES HAS RIGHT WATERS Of GRAND JUDGE CANl
Gist of Decision
ofJudge Calender

The following are the most i'm
portant point in the decision or
Judge Cavender:
Water used to run turbines to
lift water for irrigation purposes
is classed as agricultural and is
subject to priority claims.
Upholds every single finding of
Referee Guy V. Sternberg.
All the reports of the approprIa-
tion of water to the various irri-
cation companies accepted. The
findings We're published in the
Sentinel over a year ago.
Waters of Rio Grande were at
all times subject to appropriation
for irrigation, agricultural, or
mining and power purposes.
Withdrawal of lands did not
mean withdrawal of water rights
by government. All appropria-
tions of water are subject to To-
cal laws.
Entire land withdrawn by gov
ernment could not be irrigated by
project.
Nothing done on canal up to
1908 and all rights to water by
government during this period
void.
Government has dictated waters
for state uses and has no claim on
them.
Topography of land makes 1t
necessary to use water for power
to lift water for irrigation
Every contention of government
is overrulad. -..

Stunning Blow to Government.

Although a stunning blow to the
hopes of the government for favora-
BILE legislation for hurrying the con-
struction of the canal, the decision
may not cause a great delay. Nego-
tiations are now pending between the
government and the Mesa County lr-
rigation District and the Palisade lr-
rigation District, whereby the gov
ernment will supply the ditch COM
panies with water from the high line
canal and take over their water rights
in the Grand river.
Government Slow in Starting.
Judge Cavender in his decision,
referring to one of the points of the
government in the objections, espe-
cially stated that the government pri-
or to 1908, never made any expressed
intent whatever of proceeding with
actual work on the project.
He stated that the withdrawal of
such a large acreage of land extend
ing from De Beque to the Utah line,
was probably void in some particu-
lars, owing to the refusal of the
right to homestead. IF the govern
ment had shown any intent of start
ing work on the high line canal it
would have been different. ] think
that the referee, Mr.. Sternberg, has
gone to the limit in the priority
rights for the water" he said.
All For Irrigation.
One of the most important and in
teresting findings of the court was
in connection with the contention of
the government that the water used
by the irrigation companies for pow
er purposes TO raise water to the
land level from the river is in the
strict sense of the word used for ir-
rigation purposes and not manufac-
turing, as the government contended.
The constitution does not use the
word irrigation, but that of agricul-
tural. Judge CavendeT holds that
agricultural purposes includes the
lifting of water by water power for
agricultural purposes.
Government to Appeal.
That the decision was more sweep
ingly adverse to the government than
was expected was stated by Engineer
Miner and Attorney Honnold. At the
conclusion of the rendition of the de-
cision, Attorney Honnold, on behalf
of the government, asked time to pre-
pare a bill of exceptions to the de-
cision and stated that he would take
the matter up with United States
District Attorney Ward at once.
Whether this will mean an appeal
to the Colorado supreme court is not
definitely known, but it is understood
that this will be the procedure.
President w. S. Wallace of the Wa
ter Users association and several di-
rectors. many attorneys and interest
ed spectators. heard the findings of
the court. Whether it will delay the

Rev. Huffer created quite a sensa-
tion in his, church several months
ago with his advocacy of Sunday
baseball. He was an avowed social
ist and had extreme views on many
matters. This aroused the enmity of
some of his conservative members
and this has finally developed into
the open clash.
