Was a Fierce Bat.Io Z.

The fight to cut off the Pay
cite valley from Canyon and form
new county to be known as Pay
ette, with New Plymouth as The
temporary county seat, was mos
fiercely waged. 1t was by far the
hottest division fight of this ses-
sion of the legislature and prac.
tically every section of the county
was drawn into it. The battle field
however, was in the Payette val
ley with Payette and New Ply
mouth on one side and Emmett or
the other. Caldwell gave to the
Emmett cause valuable assistance
and when the final test came con
tributed in no small degree toward
turning the tide of battle.
The beginning of the end was
reached Monday night, when a
hearing was given both sides be-
fore the committee on county line
and boundaries. Emmett was there
in force, some % business men and
ranchers going to Boise in the
morning, led by such men as John
McNish, Andy little, John Van
Deusen, D. A. Hawkins, Frank
Berry and Finley MonIoe. At the
committee meeting, the divisionists
had as spoke esmen P. Monroe
Smock of New Plymouth, B. H.
Sargent of Fruitland, M F. AL
berts, Mr.. Brainard and John Hara-
der of Payette and w. F. Sinclair
of Emmett. For the ants Mr..
Hayden and ]. B. Gowen appeared
for Caldwell, the venerable Mr..
Gladdish for Fruitland, Mr.. Weir
for New Plymouth and Finley Mon
roe for Emmett And the Emmett
people were mighty proud of Mr..
Monroe's able presentation of the
case. He marshalled the facts in
logical and convincing manner
and eloquently pointed out the in
justice of making the division. The
discussion became heated at times
and was punctuated by rounds of
applause on the Emmett side of |
the house.
To back up the claims of the
antis, protest signed by 100 EN- |
nett people was presented 10 the
committee. Fruitland sent pro-
test containing over hundred
and according to Mr. Weir
half of the people of the New Ply
mouth country were opposed to
division.
The bill as presented to the legis-
lature included all the north end
of Canyon county in the Payette
river watershed The county seat
provision underwent many change
from the original intention. 1t was
first proposed to make New Ply
mouth the permanent county seat
Payette objected. Then it was
changed TO temporary cornty
seat for six years, then four years,
then two years, and finally one
year and thous h a who e year
seemed a long time to defer Pay
sttes ambitions, that town at last
consented. /

CAN COMPEL PIPING OF
bitches
Supreme Court Decides That
Municipalities Have Con-
troll of Streets

That cities and villages have the
right to change grades Of stree an
i 70 compel irrigation companies Il
run their water in other than opeI
/ bitches inside of the corporate i'm.
! its is the decision of the supreme
court when it affirmed the district
judge last week in the case of the
City OF Nampa and others agai 81
the Nampa & Merid an Irrigation
district.
The company appealed from the
decision of the district court, but
the supreme court held that the
district judge had lot made error S
in any part of tn trial or hearing.
1t held that city could prevent
a company from running its wat T
in an open ditch through the stree
and that a water user in the city
could compel the company 10 de-
liver water. While the city could
not force the company TO build a
pipe line, that would he the alterna a
tive for its standing, as it does BE-
tween the regulation Of the city a
the demands of the wa.er users.
The city has authority to change
the grades of the streets at any
time that it sees fit to do so
and the company must confo m
thereto.
The court says: "The munic'pa :
ity still has the right to regulate
the use of its streets ard to pre-
scribe the manner and method to
be pursued by an irriga ion dis
trict in conducting g water over or
through the streets in order TO
deliver it to water users and con-
sumers at its canal or lateral near
est the land or lot to be irrigatt d.
If the city author tiles deem it nee,
essary to have the water conduct
ed through underground pipes iE-I
stead of being delivered in open
ditches, it was cleary within the
power and authority of the city to
take such action and prohibit the
use of the stree in different ma
ner. OF course, the city could net
compel the irrigation district to
1uild a pipe line but it cou d pro-
libit it carrying water through an
open ditch.
1.-The water consumer on the
,ther hand who had acquired a
light to the use of water from this
ystem may have his writ of man
late to compel the delivery of wa
er to him at the most available
,oints on the line OF the main o.
ateral nearest him. If the city
an prescribe the method in which
sater may be delivered through S
treet, ard the water ussr, on the
ther hand, has acquire a coz sti-
utional right to have water deliv-
red to him frcm the canal or
ateral Of the district system, then
would seem that the irrigation :
istrict, is left only the one alter
ative, namely, to construct a Iipe
ne and deliver water to the con-
umers through such lire.

Through the whole fight, three
men stood out in bold relief against
division. They are John McNish
Andy Little and Frank Berry. They
we're the leaders. There was others
who were also big factors in the
campaign, oontI ibuting literally in
time and money and standing firm
ly and stanchly in their opposition
to the selfish ambitions of aspir-
ants for county seat horors. To
all these honor.

The contest also had it's funny
side. Emmett started out to carve
a new county of its own to be
called Butte county, which should
include the Squaw creek country.
But Butte county was soon lost
sight of and al o Emmett's ener-
gies had to be centered in the ef-
fort to prevent the advocates of
Payette county from forcing us in
to that county.
