FL0WAGE
PROBLEM
IN COURT
Natural Disposition of Wa
ter Comes Before Judge
Nye in Becker Co. Case.

Judge Nye will hear arguments on
March "a in case that involves a
novel fiowage point. The decision will
be important because the question in
volved is an unusual one.
1t appears from the complaint in the
case that Klement Musil is the owner
of the northwest quarter of section
10, in Cuba township, Becker county,
and David Gerber is the owner of the
northwest quarter of section Is in the
same township. Located in sections
Z and Is is a crescent shaped slough
lake, covering about 40 acres. Gerber
had the contract to grade q mile Of
highway and build the embankment
across one arm of the lake. 1t is
charged that he cut an opening 2x2
feet through the ridge at the lowest
point in the outlet of the lake. This
will permit the water to run from the
lake down through a coulee, about
land, where the coulee runs out.
Musil seeks to restrain Gerber from
this opening from the
lake on the ground that the water thus
diverted is not surface water, but
water of the lake. II Gerber could get
the surface water into the Coulee
without passing 1t through the lake
there would be no question Of his
right. AS soon as the surface water
is run into the lake it ceases to- be
surface water for, like grain dumped
into a common bin, it loses it's iden-
tity.
The case will come up before Judge
Nye at 10 o'clock Saturday morning
and the argument for Musil will be
made by G. G. Dosland.

SPALDLNG
ANDGREEN
DISAGREE
One Says Ninety Day Resi-
dence Requirement stands
Other Says Not.

IF voters want to vote at the COM
ing municipal election. they should
register and be residents of the pre-
cinct in which they vote for at least
80 days prior to the election" said
Judge Burleigh F. Spalding. assistant
city attorney. who today investigated
the matter Of qualifications Of electors
in cities.
There is some controversy in the
city as to whether or not an elector is
required to reside in the precinct 80
days to be qualified as a voter.
Assistant States Attorney w. G.
Green contends that it is not neces-
sary for voter to reside 80 days in
the precinct. though he must reside
one year in the state and six months
in the county. He bases his opinion
on section 1868. compiled laws Of
1918.
Some raise a constitutional objec-
ton. but we will hold that voter has
a right to vote whether he has been a
resident of the precinct for 80 days
or not, IL he has the other Qualifica-
lions, until the supreme court decides
otherwise" said Attorney Green today.
In speaking Of his investigation,
Judge SpaldinR says that so far as he
is able to find there is no differentia-
ton between the qualification of cleo
tors in city elections and electors at
general elections-that in each case
the qualifications rest on the constitu-
tioanl provision that electors must be
residents OF q precinct for at least 80
days before they are qualified to vote.
Section 8668 complied laws 1918, re-
ferred to by Mr.. Green. reads as fol-
lows:
Every legal voter Of the county in
which such city is situated, who shall
have been a resident OF the city 90
days next proceeding a city election,
is declared q citizen of said city, and
shall be entitled TO vote at all city ell
ections; provided, that the city coun-
Gil shall provide for the registration
of all voters an required by the laws
of the state in all cities OF more than
400 voters 80 determined by the last
annual election, and in cities Of 400
voters or less, the city council may
provide for the registration Of all vot-
ers in accordance with the laws of
the state as one polling place and sep
arate registration lists shall be pro-
vtded and kept for each ward and no
person shall be entitled to vote in any
other place than the ward or precinct
where he resides, except where other
wise provided by law"

SPACE ON
STEAMERS
IS TAKEN
Half of Space on Canadian
Pacific Liners Requisi-
toned by British.

The British government has requis1-
toned fifty per cent Of the space on the
Canadian Pacific liners on the west
bound voyage from the Orient to Van
couver, according to q report received
from official sources, and confirmed at
the office Of the company. The action
does not affect outward traffic, and, 1t
is understood, is intended to insure ade-
quate space for the transportation OF
Oriental merchandise to Canada The
demand for freight movement from the
far east has recently been so heavy
that the reservation OF this space has
been regarded as a necessary step, par
ticularly in view Of the upward move
ment of freight rates. $3.50. ..-..
The vessels of the Canadian Pacific
now engaged in trade between Vancou-
yer and the far east are the Empress Of
Russia, the Empress of Asia. the En-
press Of Japan and the Monteagle. The
Empress of Russia and the Empress of
Asia are boats of more than 5000 tons
net, while the others are OF more than
5000 tons net. The reQuisition Of half
of the space on these vessels, therefore,
means the withdrawal from ordinary
trade purposes Of a considerable
amount Of tonnage and is regarded as
likely to cause a further stiffening OF
rates on westbound traffic from the far
east.
While the volume Of freight moving
eastward from North America is ade-
Quately accommodated by the tonnage
now In service. it was stated yesterday
by shipping men interested in the far
eastern trade that the vessels available
were not sufficient for the westbound
movement. The situation was easier
for several months, but is reported to
be tightening up again, and recent adj
vances have amounted to as much as
100 per cent on some commodities.
Much Of the cheaper Chinese merchant
disc which would ordinarily find a mar
ket here cannot afford to pay the
freight rates now asked, and the ex-
ports OF such commodities have been
checked. On the other hand, the agent
OF one Of the Japanese companies said,
there Is a surplus Of cargo that can pay
the price, and, as a result, there is
strong competition to obtain space at
any price. The outcome is a steady
upward movement in rates.
The withdrawal Of British tonnage
from the Pacific trade shortly after the
Of the war was partly offset
by the return of the large Empress
liners. Previously the Japanese had
been almost alone in control OF the
field. The reQuisition Of part of the
space on the Canadian Pacific boats
to some extent, the advantage
Of the Japanese, but they are meeting
more competition from American ship
ping than at any time since the aban-
donment Of the old Pacific Mail service.
The Venezuela, Colombia and Ecuador,
the three vessels employed by the re-
organized Pacific Mail on the trsNs-
pacific route, are not regarded as suffi-
Gent to safeguard American interests
on the Pacific. but they at least furnish
that would otherwise be
acking.
