MARY PROSSER WINS
CONTESTED WATER CASE

Mrs. Mary Prosser was winner in
the law suit brought before Judge
Black last week to quiet title to ditch
and water rights. The case was brot
against A. f. Marrlatt over ll5 statu-
tory inches of water. Mrs. Prosser
asked in addition for an injunction re
straining Mr.. Marlatt from taking
any water from the Arch irrigating
ditch until she had taken her ll5 in
chcs. Marlatt answered by stating
that he denied her right to the lis in
ches of water ard claimed the right
to 32l statutory inches under the
same decree. Mrs. Prosser made her
claim of right through l.. l.. Bush,
one of the original constructors of the
ditch, and Marlatt claimed his right
through the Travellers Insurance Co.
who foreclosed two deeds of trust
upon certain lands and water includ-
ing the Arch irrigation ditch. The
trial narrowed down to the construc-
ton of certain language in the trust
deed, which seemed, according to
Judge Black. to have put ~ and l-2
rights of the lis inches each ahead of
the claim of A. f. Marlatt to the
rights in the ditch.

There are workers in every corner
of Gunnison county, but News-Cham-
pion is unable to give all the work
of the committees this week.
Are there any slackers?" News
Champion reporter asked the COM
mittee women. every few, indeed
was the reply. We cannot say that
we enlisted 100 per cent yet, but per-
haps the rest will reconsider.
The state of Colorado must raise a
million, and other states in proper
ton. There is not community in
this whole United States this week
where the loyal, patriotic women are
not busy collecting this great war
fund, which we must give, and give,

Quite number Of Gunnison lads
have been considering cnIisting in the
navy, but were uncertain from re-
ports whether men were still being ac-
ccptcd. However. Thco. Davis called
up the recruiting office at Grand
Junction yesterday (our nearest sta
tion) and learned that cnlistments are
being accepted and are being urged.
Marshal Davis intends to 90 to the
Junction about the first of next week
to enlist in the navy as apprentice
seaman, if possible.
In this connection we learn that q
great many trades are represented in
both army and navy and that there
is opportunity for those who have
some special education or ability tc
help their country in other ways thar
by enlistment in the regular battle
line. In list handed US it is NOTED
that the Springfield Armory wants {
blacksmiths, II carpenters, "a droJ
forgers, 4 engineers, 1T filers, pa
millers, 8 printers, 40 screw makers
81 stokers, 35 tool grinders, Al woot
workers, etc. The navy yards a
Portsmouth want so machinists, q
pattern makers, etc. and the same il
true at Philadelphia, Puget Scum,
and other navy yards.

tions indicate a pretty stiff physica
examination and certain knowledg,

Later reports of the washout on the
RIO Grande at the town of Tunnel, %
miles east of Grand Junction indicate
| that II was the most tremendous ever
| experienced in the history of the Rio
/ Grandc.
Just after midnight, Wednesday and
only IS minutes after the special train
barring President Nudge and his pri-
yate car had passed the spot, 1900 feet
Of track suddenly went into the boil
lrr food of the Grand river, the swirl
INK waters having undermined the
track and the mountain back of it.
IIny attempts to stop the flood were
sa-pt away in an instant. Thousands
o. IONS of rock and mud still hang
>l pended. and it will be impossible
% ~rpaIr the track till the river sub
sides. In the meantime the Rio
G-ande has hundred men employed
Itrung to transfer passengers and
baggage about 4 mile over the hill to
other trains. As a consequence trav-
cIInrs are being given their choice of
tn narrow gage route and hundreds,
p haps thousands will take it,in fact
Gunnison may be on the main line
again.
We hope it will be lesson to the
R.o Grande to broad gage the Mar
shall Pass line and avoid such ca
ta-trophics.
Soon after President Mudge's spec
ia crcpt by the edge of the smashing
stream at Tunnel, the slide happened
and the track went out.
This is not all. A washout of al
most as serious proportions swept the
track at Westwater, Utah, 35 miles
west of Grand Junction, about the
same time the Tunnel washout oc-
Cured, and a freight engine and eight
cars plunged into the abyss left by
the water where the track should have
been. No one was killed, tho the
train crew had miraculous escapes.
Trainloads of passengers are stalled
al Grand Junction, west bound.
The washout at Tunnel was caused
by sliding mountain, which had been
undermined by the high water and
thousands of tons of rocks, mud and
dirt, slid into the river, completely
changing its course, and appropriate
ing the entire width of the canon
where the station of Tunnel was To-
Gated. The old mountain which slid
has always been a landmark pointed
out as an ancient slide which took
place years ago. 1t is about 600 feet
long and runs to the top of the hill
side some 400 feet high. If it slides
any more the river may completely
annihilate the Rio Grande main line
for miles.
