WATER RAIDERS ARE
GLAD TO LIFT SIEGE
Ranchers Off Aqueduct War After
They Are Assured a
Settlement

Lone Pine, Gala barbecue, a n d
not bloodshed, brought to a close Nov,
20, another chapter in the 20-year long
water rights feud between the city OF
Los Angeles and ranchers Of Owens
valley.
The ranchers' decision to abandon
their announced determination to "hold
the gates open until state troops are
sent or Los Angeles to terms
was reached at a conference of leaders
held at Keller, on the shores of Owens
lake, during the night. 1t was reached
as a direct result of the resolution
adopted last Tuesday by the Los An
geles Clearing House association,
promising its cooperation in promoting
a settlement of the water rights feud,
providing the gates are closed.
This resolution, accompanied by a
telegram from w. w. Waterson, an
Owens valley banker, who Tuesday
laid the case of the ranchers before
the clearing house association, was for
warded to Carl Keogh, president of the
Owens River Canal company, and Har-
ry Glasscock, publisher of the Owens
Valley Herald.
Proposals TO close the control gate
did not meet with unanimous consent
Of the ranchers on guard and it was
not until Keogh, leader of an influen-
tial group in the valley, had exerted
every effort on behalf of the recon-
nendation that it was finally adopted.

WATER SUPPLY OF
Los ANGELES GUT
SIXTY ARMED RAIDERS SEIZE
AQUEDUCT AND DIVERT
CITY,S SOURCE
SHERIFF ASKS FOR TROOPS
Irrigation Feud Reaches a Point of
War With Farmers and
Business Men

Los Angeles.-Virtually the entire
flow of the Los Angeles a%queduct, the
| city's chief source of water for domes-
tic and industrial uses, was diverted
into the Owens river near Lone Pine,
about 200 miles north Of here, by a
ralding party of go men who
stormed the aqueduct guards Nov. 16
and threw open the Alabama waste
gates.
Sheriff Charles Collins, of Inyo coun-
ty, has telegraphed Governor Richard
BON asking for troops, declaring imme-
date action by the military is all that
ear prevent bloodshed.
The raiders, alleged to be residents
Of Owens valley, where for years a
water feud has ragged between the city
and valley ranchers and business men,
late Sunday stood their ground at the
spillway and defied Sheriff Collins and
representatives of the city Of Los
Angeles.
The attackers announced that they
would continue to waste the water I'M
til a committee comes from Los
Angeles and settled" the water rights
controversy with them. Sheriff Collins,
vainly endeavoring to have the
waste gates closed, returned to hide
pendence to telegraph the facts to
Governor Richardson.
Though the aqueduct is the city's
thief source of supply, the people of
Los Angeles are in no immediate dan
ger of a water famine, officials Of the
water department said at night.
There are enough reservoirs between
Alabama waste gates and the city,
was pointed out, to maintain a steady
low into the municipal mains for 30
lays.
