THE M'SHANES
CLAIM OLDEST
WATER RIGHT

Last week the attention of the dis
trict court was taken up with the case
OF Mary V. McShane who is seeking
an Injunction against William McKin-
ney, restraining him from using the
water from small tributary to Six
Mile creek upon which stream the Nc
Shane ranch is situated. 1t has been
stated that the two parties to the suit
were fighting over the right to a small
spring used by Mckinney for irrlga-
ton purposes but this appears not to
be true.
The McShanes possess a water rig {
and decree which df.es tHck to 1871
and entities them to all the flow down
Six Mile creek including all tributaries
OF Six Mile. The Mcshanes declare
that certain ranchers have come In
and located certain property along tho
tributaries and have been using the
water for irrigation purposes that
rlghtfully. according to the McShanes.
belonged to them.
The Mcshanes found 1t u ,cessar.' to
go - court. so ;ley stat. In an en-
deayor - regain the wa'sr that bc.
longed TO them and in doing so they
cited the Mckinney property as a
test case. When Mckinney was sum-
moned to defend himself he asserted
that the water he depended on came
from n spring and that 1t was not In
cluded in the McShane water decree.
Investigation OF the spring was
made by Charles Milton for the plain
tiffs and IT was aseertained that the
spring evidently was not really such
but rather was made to appear as
such by the manipulation OF pipes in
such a clever manner that IL would
do credit TO a hydraulic engineer. so
said Mr.. Milton.
Judge wilkin has taken the matter
under advisement and will hand down
decision in the near future.

The LAW OF ROAD
SHOULD Be ENFORCE D

J. NJ. KILN Of Pueblo who has spent
few days in this city states that one
thing he noticed in particular about
Canon City was that owners OF teams
do not regard the custom OF the road
In tying their horses. He went on to
say that teams should be driven into
the curbing from the right and not At
right angles. or from the left as Is
the custom now and will thus avoid
much trouble and Inconvenience. II
there are but two hItching posts in a
block, said Mr.. KILN. there is certain
to be an auto standing in front Of each
one of them. In most cities the size
of Canon City there are definite regu-
latlons drawn up by the city councils

HAS BARBER
ARRESTED FOR
SELLING BOOZE

Claude Van Treese. who runs bar
Der shop on Main street, was sum
moned into the county court on a COM
plant of alleged selling of booze con-
trary to the local option law. The
complaint was made by Fred Fowler
through his attorney. Fowler alleges
that Van Treese sold him half pint
of whiskey a short time ago. Van
Treese pleaded not guilty and ex-
planned the transaction by stating
that Fowler came in and asked him
what he owed the barber While Van
Treese was looking the matter u
Fowler made a remark he was crazy
for a drink of booze and didn't know
where he could get any. Van Treese
said he replied that he could give him
a drink and got out half pint OF
booze which Fowler took. Fowler
tossed half dollar and the latter said
he placed 1t to Fowler's barber ae-
count.
The police are given credit fo= fer
reting out the case and It was turned
over to the sheriff's office who made
the arrest. Judge Cooper set the case
for July 18th for trial and Van Treese
was released under three hundred dol
lar bond which was furnished by his
brother, Thurston Van Treese.
1t is asserted that Van Treese, per-
haps, has been selling booze for some
time.
