WATER LAW
CONSTITUTIONAL IN SPOTS

Judge Quicker has decided that
the Carpenter water law, prescrib-
ing the duties of the state engi-
neer passed by the 1913 legisla-
ture, is constitutional in SPOTS and
unconstitutional ia others. The de.
cision was rendered Wednesday in
the case of fifty water users against
State Engineer Kearney. The
PLAINTIFF brought suit to restrain
him from holding hearings to de-
termine the relative rights Of wat
er users along the Humboldt river.
The decision is on a demurrer to
the complaint and a motion to
dissolve the temporary injunction.
The Star says that The law was
attacked upon several constitutional
grounds namely. That it conferred
judicial functions upon a non-judic-
ial officer; that it was q special
law; that it deprived persons of
their property without due process
of law; and that it deprived the
District Courts of the State of
their original Jurisdiction and con
ferred upon these courts appellate

Gently written urging the passage OF
federal legislation on the subject.
The committee has held two series
of hearings on the bill and both of
these have brought out the fact that
there is no efficient censorship of the
movies. The board of censors of
Chic go was ridiculed before the
committee for having prohibited the
exhibition of film of the Merchant
of Venice" on the ground ttat it
was anti-semitic.
There are three elements in the
moving picture industry, all of which
must be controlled, according to
members of the committee. The e
are the exhibitors, the exchanges and
manufacturers. OF the three, the
exchanges are by far the most pow
erful. Two of the three principal
exchanges already have stated that
they are opposed to a federal censor
ship.
Most of the exhibitors are in favoE
of the proposed board of censors.
Their chief desire, as expressed to
the committee, is to be protected in
the quality Of the films sent to them.
The manufacturers of films have not
yet been heard from.

from her wounds it would be dual
case of murder and infanticide. The
woman's condition prevented the sur

Gilbert was arrested by police Of

the case was brought before the mayor
this morning he promptly transferred
it to the county for the attention or

Dock Gilbert was also charged with
assault and battery on his wife. The
