THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: 8 ATURDAY IRRICATION LAW TESTED | 8t, Raynor Measure Proved to Be Founded Along Proper Lines, RIVAL NEBRASKA CONPANIES CONTEST Judge Holeomb in Chambers at North Platte Dissolves an Injunction Caleu- lated to rfere with Fro- posed Tmprove onts, NORTH PLATTE, Sept. (Special to The Bee)—The injunction of the Paxton and Hershey Irrigation Canal and Land company against the Farmers and Mer- chants Irrigation and Land company has been on trial before Judge Holcomb, sitting in chambers at North Platte, for several days past, on a motlon to dissolve the tem- porary injunction. After a very vigorous fight the judgs sustained the motion and dis- solved the injunction, The case, involving as It did the con- struction of the St. Raynor irrigation law, was very important and attracted a great deal of attention. The question Involved was the e iction of that section of the law which provided that not more than one irrigation canal can be constructed across a tract of land without the consent of the owner of the land when the ditch already there can be made to answer the purpose. The defendant company, composed of land owners, whose lands were not under any irrigation ditch, was organized for the pur- pose of constructing a canal to bring water from the North Platte river to their lands, and found that it was necessary to cross the lands of the plaintiff company, who owned theyland for ten miles on the river front, and being unable to procure the right of way by negotiation, were about to bring condemnation proceedings when this tem- porary injunction was secured from Judge Scott of Omaha on an ex parte show!ng The contention of the plaintiffs was that the law should be nmarrowly construed, and that if it were possible for the Paxton and Hershey company’s canal and the other canals already built to furnish the water required by the defendant by enlargements or extensions the injunction should be sus- tained. The court held that to sustain that conten- on would be liable to keep the defendant ompany out of water for an indefinite term or compel the defendant company to take water from the canals already built at possibly great cost, would have a tendency to create o monopoly, and that as the court could not order the company owning already in existence to furnish water to the defendant company, and fix the compensa- tion to be paid, the Injunction should be dissolved and the defendant company per- mitted to condemn a right of way through the plaintiff’s lands and take the water re- quired for their canal from the North Platte river, the common source of supply; that fnjunction In a case of this kind would not be sustained unless it could be shown that there was another and feasible and practical way of obtaining the water re- quired. The Farmers and Merchants company was organized last May for the purpose of providing water for a tract of 10,000 acres of land adjacent to the city of North Platte, nearly half of which tract is owned by the stockholders of the company. The placing of this large tract of land so mear the ety under irrigation will be a great benefit to North Platte. The Irrigation canals now constructed and under construction will put over 100,000 acres of land in this county under irrigation PIONEER SURVEY INACCURATE. Grant and Hooker Countles' Property Owners Very Much Disturbed. HYANNIS, Sept. 7.—(Special to The Bee.) —The residents of Grant and Hooker coun- ties are in high glee over the receipt of the news that the last congress passed a bill pro- viding for the resurvey of the two countles and that it has become a law. In 1876, just before the rush for free land set in In this portion of the sfate, the sur- veyor gencral awarded the contract for sur- veying these counties and the wirk was com. contractors were pald, but when the work was completed settlers were in but lttle better position than before, so far as locating their lands were concerned. The men having the contract merely ran the township lines, with now and then a section line. Few if any corners were established, and those which were were found to be en- tirely off when the county surveyor was hired to locate some corners which it was neces- sary to find at the time of locating the town- site, For years the settlers got aling as well as they could, figuring everything from the standard meridian, which, by the way, runs through the county to the north. Two years ago all but four of the residents of Grant county petitioned congress for a resurvey of the county, and at the last ses- slon of congress a bill was Introduced, pass- ing just befors c:ngress adjourned. re- survey of the two counties will work a hard- #hip upon some of the citizens, as there are cases where, before the new law was passed, parties owned productive meadow lands, and now they may catch sandhills; but, on the whole, there s a great deal cf satisfaction expressed.

B e U RULING ON THE TARIFF BILL, ruction of the Frovisi to the Marking of SHINGTON, Sept. T.—Secretary Car- lisle this afternoon issued an official cir- cular regarding the marking, etc., of goods under section 5 of the new tarifl law, in regard to which much uncertainty as to con- struction has existed. After quoting the section in extenso, the secretary says: “This section differs from section 6 of the act of October 1, 1890 (McKinley law), in requiring a statement of the quantity of the contents and In withholding delivery of goods ‘until they shall be duly marked,’ etc. In order to afford a ressonable time for compliance with the above secilon, it will be enforced, so as it refates to the statement of quantities only upon that mer- chandise shipped from abroad afer August 28, 1804, The department holds the indication of the country of origin under this sec- tion meed not necessarily be restricted 10 the declaration of the name of such coun- try, but may be accepted under whatever form, provided the goods contaln unmis- takablo evidence of thelr origin without mis- leading marks or other signs. “It is further held the requirement In respect to ‘quantity of contents’ applies only to packages and not to separate articles. Certain classes of goods are, respec- tively, put up in packages of recognized and uniform quantities. A mere Inspection of such packages will suffice to determine the fact of thelr conformity or nonconformity, as the case may be, with the established prac- tice of the trade. It is the purpose of the department to so construe the section that without an in- vasion of its provisions unnecessary ob- struction and hardship to exporters may be avoided.” WA e The use of Dr. Price's Baking Powder stamps every woman who uses it as a model housekeeper. e A QUEER MONOPOLY. Who Cornered the Su, of Tin Cans. A novel “corner” is reported from Butte City, Mont. It appears that the waste waters from some of the mines adjacent to the city are heavily charged with copper, and the saving of this valuable solution has, within the past few months, grown into quite an industry. The lessee of one of the mines has entered Into the business on a larg: scale, and requires a constant supply of tin cans and old iron. Heretofore he could get as much as he wanted for the asking and the trouble of hauling it away, but now the owners have become alive to the state of the market and strike profitable bargains with the men who are regularly organized to col- lect the cans and scrap. A city alderman saw an opening for business, and quietly made arrangements to control all the available old fron and tin cans in the county, and has al- ready accumulated huge heaps which are awaiting a rise in the market. It is rumored that the wily alderman thinks now of going into the copper business himself, and the chances are that he will either starve out the mine lessees or be taken in as a partner. e Fish Die from Swallowing Hallst olonel Harry Moore of Rocky Ridge tells a story which would make Ananias blush were it not for the fect that Mrs. Moore corroborates it, says the BeMingham Bay, Wash., Express. few Sundays ako,” Harry says, “we had a very heavy hailstorm.

They are to sall for home not later than the 15th inst. The sealing season will be practically at an end by that date and whatever services may then be required can be efficiently rendered by the revenue cutters, which will remain on duty in the waters. The naval vessels will return separ ately, cach one leaving the seas as sc as she can be spared The flagship Mohican will be the last one to leave the station. Th United States steamer Adams has already reached Whatcom, Wash., on her way to San co, and it is expected that th otter vessels of tho fleet will soon arrive in the United States. The Adams ran aground in Bering sea during a dense fog, but was fortunately hauled off before she had sus tained serious dama At the time of her accident Commander J. J.

WASHINGTON, Scpt. 7.—The attorney gen eral has given an opinion to the Navy de partment which Is of great interest to all persons who do by ment by contract. The question at issue was whether persons who had submit proposals o the Navy department in re sponse to the advertisement could legal withdraw them before the d fixed their opening. This has been allowed he tofore under opinions of previous at generals, who had ruled that such propo might properly be withdrawn at any time prior to the hour fixed for ther opening The practice, however, has not worked wall, as in several instances it was found that bids withdrawn in this way were really moro satisfactory than those that remained. Attorney General Olney takes issue with his predecessors In this matter, and holds in effect that a proposal once submitted to the department In response to a public ad- vertisement is beyond recall, and vet the maker {s bound by the term his pro- posal in the event of its acceptance by the department ss with the govern CROP OF CEREALS. AR Wheat Is Short In Quantity but n Quality. WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.—Eugene Germane. consul at Zurich, Switzerland, has forwarded to the State department a report dated Angust 24 concerning the crop report of Hungary. It shows that the wheat crop 18 superior in quality, but about 15 to 20 per cent less, than that of last year. The wheat crop about 3,100,000 tons. The prospeets for good markets, the report says, are discouraging. The international agricul- tural depression now prevailing has affected agrarian interests as well as the milling interests of the world. Protective duties, the report says, have failed to produce the desired effect or check the downward ten- dencles in the price of wheat. Farmers in the United States who sold their wheat In 1881 for $1.19 per bushel could realize only 80 cents in 1893, and the same con- dition prevails the world over. A short crop is reported of rye and but one-third of a crop of corn. Barley is a good crop. RECESS APPOIL Names of Lucky Men Who Step Into Ofce Without Senatorinl Confirmation. WASHINGTON, D.
