Text of Suit
{ The complaint alleges many reasins
why a tax should not be levied to
raise money for this purpose and
reads as follows from Paragraph 13,
the first II being Of a preliminary
nature:
That said defendant District does
not owe said Imperial Laguna Water
/ Company or said Mark Rose anything,
and the payment of said sum of $780,
$4,000, or any part thereof, by de-
PENDANTS to either said Imperial La

said District to said Imperial Laguna
Water Company, and is and will be
without authority of law and in viola
tion of the duty of said defendants,
and each of them. That the levy of
any assessment by said Board and
the collection thereof to provide funds
with which to pay said Imperial La

Rose will be illegal; that same will
create cloud upon the title of the
lands of said plaintiffs, and of each
of them.

That said defendants have not on
hand sufficient monies to pay said

The suit comes As a surprise to the
general public although those who
have been in close touch with irriga-
ton affairs have known that legal
action would be taken for some time
to prevent the payment of such
money. Last spring, it will be he
membered, the question of whether
any sum, and if any sum was due,
how much, to Mark Rose was debated
all over the valley for weeks. At that
time threats were made to take legal
action to prevent the irrigation dis
trict from making any such payment.

met today for the purpose of con-
