R iy The Supreme Court handed down a decision in the famous ‘‘percolation’ case yesterday, reaffirming its previous judgment and order. The arguments of former Justice Temple are sup- ported, but the decree is so modified as to exclude the oil feature of the ques- tion. The plaintiffs in the suit are Leah J. Katz, executrix of the estate of Marcus Katz; A. D. Allison, R. M. Tyler and William McDonald. Margaret D. Walkinshaw is the defendant. The pe- titioners owned an artesian well in San Bernardino County. The defendants, also constructed an artesian well. The re- sult was that the Katz well produced less water than formerly. The trial court granted a nonsuit and an appeal was taken to the Supreme Court. - Jus- tice Temple wrote an opinion, in which the majority of the court concurred, declaring that the plaintiffs had a cause for action. The decision was general in jts terms and the law as in- terpreted would have applied to oil as| well as water properties. Ten different petitions for a rehear- ing were granted. It is argued by the defendant that landowner has the right to take what- ever water he can from his property. | The court declares that common law must be adjusted to prevalling condi- | It is then shown in the opinion | tions. that the pecullar geological formation of the State, the absence of water in | certain localities and the pressing need of moisture to insure the future prosperity of California combine to force a liberal ingterpretation of satutes. It is said that the trouble over water percolations is only just beginning and | | that the rule cannot be laid down per- mitting the person with the deepest well and the strongest apparatus to have all the water in his neighborhood, even if he does operate from his own real estate. The court asserts that there is no necessary parallel between oil and water percolations and the for- mer question need not be decided at this time. ’ The judgment of the lower court is again reversed and a new trial is or- dered. The opinion is written by Jus- tice Shaw, with whom Chief Justice Beatty and Justices McFarland, Van Dyke, Henshaw, Lorigan and lotti concur. —_———— Compelled to sell our newest Garments at Cut Rate Prices.
