COCHRAN, SUED GET AT LAND BOARD. TO Big Corporation Resist Collection of .; '.. State Filing Fees. , Constitutionality of the fee system required by the state water board of applicants for irrigation water all through the state is to be determined in a suit against the board brought by a big concern and yesterday the pa pers in the case were served on Geo, T. Cochran, who as . water commis sioner for this district, will be made the nominal defendant, though it is the constitutionality the issue seeks to determine. The suit waB filed some time ago but on account of the absence of the water superintendent the ser- vice ' was not made until yesterday when Mr. Cochran returned. The plaintiff is the Pacific Live stock company, a California corpora tion, for the recovery of over $4,000 paid by the corporation as fees to Mr. Cochran before he would file its claim covering many hundred acres of land in connection with the determination of the rights of all parties on Silvies river to water by the state , water board. " It is claimed that the payment was iade under protest and was made on ly in order to protect the company's rights. ' The corporation claims that the collection of the fee, which is the regular fee esetablished by the state water bureau, was illegal and extor tionate, depriving it of the equal pro tection of the laws and of its proper ty without due process of law, and de prived it of a right to have its rights adjudicated without paying an exorbi tant sum. The charging of a fee is attacked as illegal, in addition to the claim that the amount charged was not a proper fee or any fee. Action is brought to collect the fee against Mr. Cochran personally, though the state land board is behind him. . . . The fee is regulated by the num-. ber of acres in a claim, just as charg es are made for recording instruments by the number of words. The state water board is expected to make vig orous defence.
