NOTICE TO WATER USERS.

To the Water Users of the Uppe
Snake River Valley:
Notice is hereby given that the An
II nual Meeting of the members OF thu
Farmers Protective Irrigation Asso
citation, will be held at Rigby Court
House, February 26, 1928, commenc-
ing at 10 o'clock a. m. All canal
they be members or not, are invited
to attend the meeting and take part
in the general discussions
In the spring of 1919 the National
Water Users Of District No. Sc, met
with the stored interests and agreed
upon certain things in regard to the
running of Natural and Stored water,
for a certain time, or at least until
further Investigations had been made.
and new light had been thrown upon
some Of the questions that were I'm
certain.
In 1921 the water interests met
again and once more decided upon
what terms the water both stored and
natural should run, and the losses to
be charged to stored water and the
expense that each should pay.
Now the time has arrived again
when we must meet with the Stored
interests and renew the old compact
or draw up new one for the running
of the Stored and Natural water dur
ing the seasons of 1923 and 1924.
During the last four years NO in
vestigations have been made on the
river or lake to determine if any
changes should be made, and while
there are many questions that are
not satisfactory to the Natural Water
Users, and never have been since the
Stored Water was turned into the
river, yet at this time, we should use
good judgment and settle all ques-
tions of uncertainty by arbitration
and agreement, until such time as
Investigations on the river and lake
will give us facts that we can rely
upon. ..
We should be very careful at this !
lime about plunging ourselves into
litigation that will cost us many hun
lreds of dollars, ana will not help us
solve the water questions before us. |
A great deal of agitation has been
,oing on during the past season, and
nen prominent in the distribution of
water in District No. SO have been
and statements have
'een made that the interests in the
over valley have been favored, while
he facts are the water has been dis
ributed according to agreement
Some men have advocated that we
ivide water District No. SO into three
eparate districts, and have COM
lete organization IN each District,
nus putting three times the burden
taxes on the people and compli-
ating the water question three times
S much.
The water in District No. SO Is so It
ltermingled in the running and the I
elivery of 1t to the various parties IL
'ho are entitled to it, that 1t would 4
9 very foolish for the water users
thus complicate matters and vote f(
4 additional burden of three times
le taxes they are now paying.
Come to the meeting and let us rea-
IN together and decide on what steps If
lall be taken for our future good. Z
