BILL FOR WATER
BOND IS VETOED
Governor Declares That the
Measure Is Unjust and
Discriminatory.

On the ground that the blu Is unjust
and discriminatory. Governor Spry yester-
day vetoed the bill requiring applicants
for unappropriated water rights to file
bond to protect persons In defending
their lawful rights to the water applied
for.
The bill provides that an application
for the appropriation Of public water
must be accompanied by a bond In an
amount not less than 5000. The bond
Of 5000 Is required by the bill where the
application Is for less than two cubic
feet OF water per second This bond
must be increased 500 for each second
foot up to $4,000 The condition OF the
bond must be that the person or COM
pany applying for the water shall pay all
expenses and damages occaSioned TO any
person in defending his lawful rights to
tho water.
Governor Spry contends that under tho
operation of such provisions not only
would q great hardship be worked. but
IN many cases persons would be abso-
lutely prohibited from filing application
for the use OF public waters He calls
attention that there is no provision
whereby the applicant for water rights
is protected against the expense incurred
by reason or a protest made against his
right to the water The protection is
all in favor OF the protestant. This pro-
lection goes farther than the protestant
for the cost OF litigation. 1t also In
ciudes any damages that may be occa-
stoned by the filing OF the application
The governor also suggests that there
is possibility that the bill may be un-
constitutional, but his veto is based on
the injustice or the measure.
