STATE LINES ERASED
IRRIGATION PRIoRITIEs UPHELD
IN Y. s. WATER RULING.
Nebraska Men Are Sustained in Re.
publican River Case in Federal
Court.
Western Newspaper Union News seA ice,

Western Newspaper Union News Se\ ice.
Denver-A decision involving all
irrigation projects in Colorado and
with a wide bearing on similar cases
throughout the United States was
handed down in the federal District
Court when Judge r. E. Lewis decided
that state boundaries have no bearings
on water rights and that the state has
no special claim on the water of the
rivers which spring up within its
boundaries.
The decision was given in the case
of the Pioneer Irrigation Company of
Nebraska against John E. Field, state
engineer, his assistants and all users
of water from the Republican river in
Colorado.
The plaintiffs claim priorities on
the river antedating many of those
held by Colorado irrigators, who have
been taking water from the stream
before it passes out of the state.
The court decreed that the Colorado
users must leave twenty-nine feet of
water in the river where it crosses
into Nebraska. The case will be car
ried to the United States Court of
Appeals.
Should the Supreme Court of the
United States uphold this decision"
Attorney General Farrar, VINO has
been active in the case, said, at will
mean a loss of millions of dollars to
Colorado and the suspension of more
than half Of the larger irrigation prof.
ects of the state"
The Colorado officials and Charles
L. Allen, attorney for the water users,
contend not only that they had the
right to all the water they could take
out of the stream in their own state
but that, because of the inevitable
seepage and return flow of the water
used the same amount would go far
ther and could be used over and over
again, if it was taken out nearer the
head of the stream, than if allowed
to run over into Nebraska across the
arid territory, where much of it would
be lost by evaporation and must be
wasted through being unused.
The question is specially vital to
Colorado, according to Farrar, because
all of her streams flow over into ad
Joining states.
On its final settlement will depend
the fate OF many irrigation enterprises
on the Arkansas, the Platte. the Lara
mie, the Grand, the Rio Grande and
the Las Animas rivers.

SUFFRAGE COLUMN
BY SUFFRAGE COMMITTEE

We r glad to hear another of
our former residents speak unre
servedly of the success of suffrage
in the state where he is now a citi-
zen, Doran Sutphen came to Us from
Idaho, where equal suffrage has
been in existence eve since the state
began. He says that beyond a doubt
1T has proved a success and that no
one ever questions it or dreams of
getting along without it.
Although the women of Idaho
have had the franchise 10 these many
years they do not lose interest in
their right to vote, and Mr. Sutphen
says, he doesn't believe there are
five women in his community who
do not come out 10 vote at elections.
The men do not complain of their
wives negIecting domestic duties and
home life runs on as smoothly in
Idaho as it does in South Dakota.
Mr. Sutphen tells Of what great
advantage the vote Of the Idaho
women is to offset the vote of the
floating population. When mem
bers of this so.called floating pop
ulation' try to issue bonds on con-
struction and tax property owners
out of existence the vote of the wo.
men doubles the power of the pro-
perty owners and enables them to
hold their own.
Apropos of Mr. Sutphen's testi-
monial is the following chipping:
In Idaho the Chief Justice and
all the justices of the State Su-
preme Court have signed a publish
ed statement to the effect that WON,
an suffrage in that state is growing
in popularity all the time; that none
of the evils predicted have come to
pass; and that while the constitu.
tional amendment was carried by a
two thirds vote. if the question were
again submitted, 1t would be carried
almost unanimously.

The National Game

The great American game of base
ball in certainly preferable to the
European game of war. At any
rate the American people have been
interested in their own game for the
past week, watching the contest be-
tween Boston and Philadelphia in
their world series for championship
honors.
The games began Friday at Phila.
delphia. and contrary to the guesses
of the great majority. The ball
parks were packed with thousands
of interested people, and more thous-
ands all over the country eagerly
sought telegraph and newspaper Of
fees to get the bulletins as the
games progressed. Yes. the game
of base ball beats the war game,
Boston won the first four games,
and the championship. This is graf
flying to lovers of baseball, because
1t again corroborates their belief
that this athletic sport is on the
square.

Piere-The Hid Canning Com
pany are certainly harvesting toma-
toes this week. Over two hundred
bushels were picked off their field
Thursday, over three hundred bush,
els Friday and 1t Is expected that
they will get yer four hundred bu-
shells today. There is nearly a thou
sand bushels on the field ready for
picking. The canning industry is
proving a great success. This land
along the Missouri river can be made
to pay extreme high income by cul-
tivating tomatoes.
Garden City-Clinging to a lead
pipe for a period of tro hours be-
fore she was rescued, after Jumping
into a cistern and rescuing her child
from drowning, was the experience
Of Mrs James Blashill. a prominent
woman of Garden CITY. She had
been dipping water from a cistern
and left the trapdoor to the cistern
open until she could secure more
water from it, Unnoticed, the
child crawled to the opening, where
it lost its balance and fell into the
water. Without hesitation the
mother jumped into the cistern and
with the child under one arm and
with the other clinging to the piping
she hung In the water for the period
stated. When rescued she was in
an exhausted condition and required
the services of a physician.
Pierre-Threshers of alfalfa seed
say that the crop of the state this
fall Is ahead of that for many years.
Weather conditions have been ideal
for alfalfa seeding, with moisture IN
the early season to give the plant a
strong growth. and dry and warm
weather for the actual seed growing
season. One small tract of two and
a half acres owned by E. F. Clifford
threshed thirty bushels which at the
price of seven dollars a bushel is a
good return from the tract as cut
ting for hay had been taken off the
same tract before the seed crop was
allowed to develop.

Farmers Move Frequently

In compiling data for the last fed
eraI census, the enumerator asked
every farmer in South Dakota this
question: How long have you liv-
ed on the farm you now occupy"
This question was answered by
67,563 of the 77.644 farm operators
in the state. More than 25. 900 stat
ed that they had occupied their
farms only one year or less; 1853
from 2 to A years; 1910 from 5 to
8 years and 1888 ten years or over.
The most restless class of people
in this state is the tenant who oper-
ates his farm on the share basis,
There are l4,2S4 of these farmers in
SD; 14,053 of them made answer to
the query and their replies indicated
that 1886 or over so per cent of
them moved every year. Aberdeen

Democratic Expenses

Aberdeen News:-The st. Paul
Dispatch truly asserts that Presi-
dent Wilson lost a golden opportun.
ity to make a great hit with the
American people when he passed by
the chance to force congress to re-
duce expenditures instead of re-
sorting to the war tax" method to
raise additional funds. Every bust
ness concern in the country-that is
every business concern that is con-
Quoted on business principles-has
cut expenditures to meet the re-
duced revenues that have accom-
panied the Democratic policy of
government and the world war.
But the federal government, instead
of following the example of private
individuals and corporations, goes
merrlly on. without any attempt at
economy in any direction, except
that which was forced upon it by
the Republican opposition when the
pork bill" vas cut down.
