Lincoln. Oct. 7. (Special.) Land
Commissioner Shumway, who has just
returned from an investigation of the
conditions surrounding the potash
lakes owned by the state, is of the
opinion hat any lake of more than
twenty acres water surface is abso
lutely the property of the state even
U a part of the lake is situated on
land owned by private individuals.
Commissioner Shumway h.iscshis
opinion upon the statutes which re
cite that no pne shall be allowed to
dram or diminish the water in such
lakes without authority from the
State Board of Irrigation, of which
the three members are also members
of the State 3oard of Educational
Funds, which has the leasing of th
school lands.
Mr. Shumway, in referring to the
Jess lake of 200 acres situated near
Antioch. said tha. the Potash Reduc
tion company is reported to have
taken from this lake $8,000,000 worth
,of potash. A part of this lake is
situated on state lands.
The Lakeside company, which is
taking water for potash purposes
from a lake a portion of which is
situated on state lands, is to be pro
ceeded against by Attorney General
Reed to test the right of the com
pany to the water. The suit will be
brought to test the right of the com
pany to the water for mineral pur
poses when its lease covers the land
tor agricultural and g.azing purposes.
