ASSAILS GOVERNMENT POLICY .North IMnttr Man VMrtn 1-Vilrrnt Poller llult In iiliirngr of HIk fturplu. nnil llrnv) l,u (o I'nrincri". An opinion on the acute situation now existing with relation to tho water of tho North Plntte river has been prepared by State Senator Hoagland of North Platte and will bo presented by him to tho state engineer and tho State Board of Irrigation at Lincoln. Senator Hong- land says. In part: "It Is an elementary principle of law rcognlicd both by the common law mid the statutes of all of the states that there Is and can be no private ownership In the waters of our public streams. As modi fied by the statutes in the Irrigation tatrs tho right to use these waters for Irrigation purposes and to return tho water to tho streams Is recognized as paramount to the riparian right, but In none of theso statutes Is there any recog nition of private ownership of the waters or the right to sell tho water. Irrigation canal are common carrlors of water, ap propriated for the benefit of tho land I owners: and tho right to use tho water Is an appurtenant to the land to bo watered and does not become a right owned by tho owners of the canal or Ir rigation works. The application of tho water to beneficial use Is the basis and measure and the limit of the right of our citizens to tako and uso the wators of the public streams. "The United States reclamation offl- elate havo 1.0S3.000 acre-feet of tho folod waters of tho North Platte river held within the bed of the river In the Path finder reservoir. Last fall the reservoir was empty and this water has been col lected In one season as a part of the public waters of the Platte river. "The ery limit of the amount of water which the federal reclamation of ficials can place to beneficial uso upon the federal Irrigation projects during the Irrigation season of 1914, and Including all of the contracts for tho private sale of water. Is 300,000 acre-feet. "The United States reclamation offl- stored In this reservoir In the stream nt tho present time- 8S.0M acre-feet of tho wnters of the North Platte river, which the federal government cannot possibly use during the Irrigating season of 1914. "The Nebraska Slate Board of Irriga tion has closed down all of the lrrlgatln ditches except the North Platte dltrh. which Is the first ditch on the river ami the Kearney power canal, a power com pany using the water for power pur poses There Is no water In the river, which the government will let through tho Pathfinder dam to furnish water for theso ditches. 'Altrady at least H.000.000 of damage hns been done to tho crops of western Nebraska during this season by the clos ing down, of the Nebraska Irrigation Pitches, while there Is an enormous quan tity of water held by the government, which It refuses to permit to flow down tho river and which It also refuses to even sell. "in IPoi congress passed tho roclamn the act and tinder It the government has constructed the Pathfinder reservoir on the North Plntte river In Wyomln and l now Irrigating therefrom a largo tract of Innd In Soett's Bluff county, Ne braska. "By the acts of the officials and the reclamntlon law Itself the government of ficials have made themselves and their nets subordinate to the Irrigation boards of Nebraska nnd Wyoming. "I have a statement of the first as sistant secrelnry of the Interior. A. A. Jones, that when tho government hns completed all of Its contemplated projects under tho Pathfinder reservoir that It cannot possibly use In excess of (VH.OOJ acre-feet of water. These figures also In clude nil the wator for which the reclamation officials have mado con tracts with private ditches upon other than government lands. "Some of our people telegraphed to Congressman Klnkaid for relief nnd re ceived reply to the effect that the offi cials have refusod to do anything and there, was no relief except to buy the water. "Prior to tho year 1910 the reclamation officials administered the reclamntlon act on the North Platte river project In har mony with tho law nnd spirit of the act and gradually turned looso all of tho sur plus waters of tho river during the Irri gation season and there was plenty of water for nil of tho Irrigators. In fact, It Is admitted by all of the competent engineers that there Is plenty of water In tho river to Irrigate all of the lands along the Platte river ha far east as Irrigation Is necessary In Nebraska It the waters are properly conserved nnd administered "Since 1910 the officials at Washington hae refused to permit the engineers In charge of the Pathfinder project to ro lease the surplus waters during the Ir rigating reason, but have withheld them and permitted the crops of the farmers each year to either be destroyed or to become shortened by failure to allow the water to go down the river. "The reclamation scrvleo In Washing ton has been operated from the beginning by cold-blooded officials following tho system of red tape that makes It Impos sible for tho peopel to deal fairly with them. "In my Judgment there Is a plain nyn cdy nt hand. Tho Nebraska State Irriga tion board should at once order tho recla mation officials to release this water. If it Is necessary we should send a delega tion to Washington nnd Immediately pro cure the passage o fa resolution permit ting our Mute to prosecute an aotlon In the courts against the officers of the government to determine our rights." lico Want Ads Produce Results. w Rob Bums "Satisfying Mildness n MISS OIULIA MOROSINI.

Memphis officials of tho Illinois Central system, establish nt Nonconnah, Just be low New South Memphis, the largest ear building and locomotive repair whops south of Chicago. It Is declared that these will give employment to at least 4,000 men and that a largo percentage of the force of workmen now at McComb City, Miss., and Paducah, Ky., will be removed to Memphis when these Im provements have been completed. Work will begin at once on the necessary build ings and all of these will be fireproof. Theee two companies are also construct ing new yards in New South Memphis. They are two and one-half miles wide and about that Ions. They are being raised to a level that will make Interfer ence from high water Impossible. The old yards of the two companies are lo cated at that point but. In addition to raising the grado to avoid high water, the trackage Is being very largely In creased, thus making It possible for the two roads to tako care of .the vast busi ness that originates here as well as of through business, It Is aimed to make Memphis the principal division point making the line between north and south bound traffic. It la proposed to have these yards In readiness for use within the next few monthaiand it la planned to have the ne.w railroad shops ready for operation within another year. In addition to these Improvements, the Illinois Central system Is, doing some double tracking in this territory. It is likewise straightening curves and elimi nating grades in order that it may handle Its business with increasing economy and efficiency. Altogether, It Is estimated by local officials that the Improvements recently bompleted, those now under way and those contemplated for the next few months will involve an expendi ture of approximately J10,000,X), an amount larger than Is being expended by this system at any other point. The Southern railway Is now proceeding with the erection of new freight terminals at Buntyn, an eastern suburb of Memphis. These new yards will parallel the main line of the Southern for more than a mile and a halt and, whllo comparatively narrow, they will represent a decided In crease tn trackage aa compared with the old yards Inside the city limits. Grading I already under way and track-laying will begin in a ahort time. It Is esti mated that these Improvements will In' volve an outlay of about J.l,W,etf). Dispatches from Jackson, Tenn., an nounce that the Mobile & Ohio Railroad company, a subsidiary of the Southern railway, will spend about' JOW.OOO In the repair of the railroad shops at that point and tn building additional shop. This company contemplates double tracking Its line between. Jackson, Tenn., and Corinth, Mss.. and the increased shop facilities are being arranged preliminary to the in creased business that Is expected to re sult The Rock Island system Is building th second bridge across the Mississippi at this point and Is likewise greatly enlarg ing its terminal facilities. These two projects will Involve a very large force of men and necessitate the expenditure of several millions dollars. The Frisco system has recently begun laying heavier rails on tho western end of Its line between Memphis and Birming ham and It Is also raising the level of tho line west of Memphis, that running be tween this point and Kansas City. Seri ous Interruption to both freight and pas senger traffic has occurred during the last few years on account of tho high water In the Mississippi and the roadbed Is to be so raised that there will be no further trouble on this score. Although the exact cost of these improvements Is not known, It Is certain that it will run quite high. The Nashville, Chattanooga & St. Louts Railroad company Is engaged tn local Im provements that will Involve an outlay of about 1100,000. David City Ileitis GertnanttiTrn, DAVID CITY. Neb..
