WATER RIGHTS STATED

Bnflt
Salem. State Engineer Lewla has
prepared a pamphlet containing Infor
mation for water users of the state in
connection with adjudication cf water
rlghta.
In many lnatancea proceedings hav
been started by users of wster from
various streams and tributaries to es
tablish rights for Irrigation, power,
mining, domestic, stock and other
uses.
Upon a final determination of these
proceedings a decree is entered in the
circuit court defining and establishing
all rights. Thereafter certificates are
iaeued by the state which are the
basis of title to the water and are re
corded as are deeds to land.
in announcement lays stress on
the fact that failure to make proof of
the claim will bar the aubsequent as
sertion of the right and it Is absolute
ly necessary, It is stated, for the pro
tection of whatever right may be
claimed, that the claimant appear and
submit proof.
