WATER INDEPENDENT.

A water right is an Independent
right, not dependant upon some othel
thing. The owner of a water right
by purchase or original appropriation
may sell the water right separate and
apart from his land. When land is
sold for delinquent taxes the water
right does not pass with the land. The
supreme court set forth those points
when it handed down a decision Wed
nesday in the case of l. e. Bennett
against the Twin Falls North Side
Land & Water company and the North
Side Canal company.
The action was one to secure a
writ of mandate commanding the land
and water company to issue to the
plaintiff 40 shares of the capital stock
# the canal company and to compel
the canal company to deliver to the
plaintiff water for the irrigation of a
certain 40 acre tract under that irri-
cation system.
Wants Water Right.
One Belcher made the original en-
try for the land, and he made the con-
tract with the land and water COM
pany for the irrigation of the tract,
and the securing of the water right
which was to be represented by capital
stock in the canal company. The pur-
chase price of the water right was
S140O, of which sum s12o has been
paid.
Belcher sold the land to John M.
Hale, who made proof of reclamation
of the land to the state and received
from the state a final certificate, but
no patent for the land has been is
sued by the United States government.
Under the assessment of 1910 the
land was sold for taxes to Lincoln
county, and the county subsequently,
transferred the land to Bennett.
Benefits contention was that when
he purchased the land the title to
the water right went with it. I'm
der the laws of the state water
right such as the one involved is
exempt from taxation.
Gets Water # He Pays.
The supreme court held that un-
der the settlers contracts the title to
the water right does not vest in the
entlyman until he makes full pay
ment for it. Thus establishing the
status of a water right, the supreme
court denied the writ. 1t held, how
ever, that Bennett was in the same
position as his predecessor, and that
the land and water company or the
canal company could be compelled to
furnish him water in accordance with
the terms Of his contract, upon his
making the payments as therein stip-
Hated.

Congressman Addison T. Smith is
filing lyceum dates in Idaho this sum-
mer with a lecture about the city of
Washington, the national capital. 1t
will be remembered that Mr. Smith
was the private secretary of Senator
Hepburn before he became congress-
man, and has lived in Washington for
many years.
Reports are coming in of the pleasant
manner of Congressman Smith in his
talks and the profitable advice that he
gives. He is doing this lecture work
for the love of it and receives no
recompense in a financial way. The
only expense is that of the bureau
which arranges and brings them to the
people.
The lecture will be illustrated with
colored slides.

"The Funny Man is the name which
has been applied to H. P. Ashby by
those who are most closely associated
with him in his 1yceum work. The
greatest trouble in placing Mr.. Ashby
on program is that one cannot count
upon the time which he will occupy for
often the audiences refuse to allow him
to take his seat
His humor is softened by geniality
which goes out in friendliness to his
hearers. The stories which he tells are
pure and wholesome and under all the

strengthener for the strenuous days

In the spring Of 1906 Ty showed up
little better. but nervousness and anx.

he was ball player. and so In the
early part of the season he performed

balked-they wanted a pitcher in addi-

nervousness left him. overanxiety no
