SENDS LETTER TO KINKAID Vrjcra Nvr nnle Olvlntf More !, nnr to Thnnc t'ho Ar Vtinble In Meet Obligations fo I lip Onifrnmfnd From a Staff Correspondent.) MNCOhN. Neb., Dec. .TO.-fSpcclal.)-Therc has been considerable controversy between uscra of water under' the. iroyern mcnt dlteh In Scotia Murf county and the government over the cancellation of lrater right held by those who become delinquent to the government for two yearn and before coming to Uncoln to accept the deputyshlp In tho state auditor' office. W. U Minor took up the matter with tho department In be half of the unera of water on the Hello Kourcho project, taking exception to tho ruling of tho department, which was that "a failure to make any two payment when due shall render tho entry subject to cancellation with forfeiture of all rights under tho act and of money al ready paid In." Air. Minor contends that the govern ment la wrong In Its construction or the act cited above, which he nay oomo under the head of "Construction" and does not deal at all with tho section tinier the head of "Operation and Main tenance." According to a letter received by Mr. Minor from Congressman Kin "kajd, enclosing the opinion of Samuel Adams, first assistant secretary of tho Interior, parties who ure delinquent on their mi and 1912 payments "i Deceinbor of, this year steps will bo taken to can teS their contracts I.rttrr to KlnUnM. Mr. Minor In bis letter to ' Congress man Klnkald says: "Hectlon 6 of tho a,ct of June, 191!. authorise tho secre tary of tho Interior to use tho reclama tion fund for tho operation and main twmhee of all reservoir and Irrigation work constructed under tho provision of tho act. To met this seems explicit and that no direct charge for opcmtlon and maintenance should ever have been made on tho settlers. "Immediately following the quotation above from Section . I find tho follow ing: 'Provided, that when tho payments required by this act are made for u por tlon of the land Irrigated from tho water of any of the work provided for than the management and operation of sucK irrigation works hall pass to tho owners of the land Irrigated thereby, to be n.ilntalned at their expense.' This lm piles1 that no operation and maintenance charges were contamplatpd by thl ncj; Until tho construction charges woro paid ouv and the canal turned over to the settlers. "t seems to mo -that the government should be satisfied with It power to shut tff a man's water supply to an forco collection of operation and main tenance expenses and that la all that Is necessary, and tht power to cancel jjhould not bo claimed. "Immediately connected with thl sub je'ct Is another that tho government now requires the advance puyment on opera tion ami maintenance, December 1, be fore they begin to deliver the water the following May. five months before tho water Is delivered and eleven months before tho completion of tho dollvery. I believe tho principal wrong, for I know of no private enterprise, which expects this. The government ought not to can ecl entries because of the non-payment . f water that they have never deliver and.-trhlch tfcey cannot complete Uellverlnc .or .almost eleven Months." Mr". Minor Is bitterly opposed to the .M.mniit taking a stand In this mat ter that 1 directly opposite to what a. private corporation or Individual would ,10 tn case he was handling the same business, and 'believes that It is a detri ment to tho beat success ot tho country In the imgaico ... w-.ui.in n rxmbrldse 'cAMBPttPaE, Neb..
