MISS MARY WATERS

After brief illness from influenza
which developed into pneumonia, Miss
Mary Waters passed from this life
early last Sunday morning at the home
of her father, Thomas Waters, on Cat
tie creek, at the age of forty years.
Miss Waters had lived with her
father on the Cattle creek ranch al
most a third of century, devoting
herself to the task of making a homo

scientious attention to her home duties
she did not enjoy an extensive az
quaintance outside of the\ immediate
community in which she made her
home.
Miss Waters is survived by her aged
father, three brothers, Patsey, Andrew
and Henry, and three sisters, Mrs.
Jack Blue and Miss Bridget Wateis of

COLORADO TO FIGHT
BOUNDARY DISPUTE

The state of Colorado, through the
office of Attorney General Victor E.
Reyes, is preparing an answer to .
bin of complaint filed recently in the
ln:ted States Supreme court by ,he
state of New Mexico, in a dispute over
conflicting surveys of the boundary
between the Two states.
"A strip OF territory varying from
one elf mi.a til a mile in width sni:
offending along practically the .htire
length of Colorado IS southern boundary
is involved. Five small post offices,
including the lumber camp of Edith,
long claimed as being in Archulcta
county in this state, are embraced in
the disputed strip.
The line claimed by Colorado to De
the legal boundary was established in
1868 by what is known as the Darling
survey. In 1909 new survey was
made by Howard b. Carpenter, a gov
eminent engineer, resulting in a con-
siderable variation from the original
plats The Carpenter survey located
the strip now under dispute as New
Mexico territory. A resolution adopt
ed by both houses of congress, fixing
the carpenter survey as the legal
boundary, was vetoed in 1908 by Theo-
dore Roosevelt, then president, on tie
advice of the attorney general # the
United States.
Between the time of passage Of the
congressional resolution and the veto
Of it, the postoffice department listed
the town Of Edith as being in New
Mexico. After the veto the town was
again recognized as under the Jurislie-
ton of Colorado, thus enjoying tho
unique distinction of being officially
tlaced in two different states w,enin
the same year.
