Judge rtcntty of Boise, Derides That There Arc No Vested Klein In Su-eamH and That a Settler Who is Damaged by Diversion of Wuter From 111 Source of Supply Cannot Recover Cusc of Much Interest to Vnintilla County. r An Irrigation ease has just been set- i tied In Idaho, which will be of Inter- complaint, assigning number of 'causes, principal of which was that ' it did not state a cause of action. This I admitted that the plaintiff Is entitled to the use of the water he had appro- ' ' . "' " ... , " . ., nled that he is entitled to protection for his water wheels, or thnt the river muat he ,eft ,n BUen a H(!1(;e nf waler that thpy mny be opprat)11j as formcr. "Accustomed as we nre in this western country to the free and al m0st unlimited appropriation and use 0( any 0f nature's products, and to be protected therein under the law that he who Is first In time Is first In right this proposition at first seems an In- novation. It Is, however, worthy of the most careful Investigations. It is. so far as I am advised, entirely new a"d has never been directly discussed " " After reviewing the conditions pre vailing and the contentions of the parties to the action, Judge Beatty says: "Suppose from a stream of 1000 Inches a party diverts and uses 100, and in some way uses the other 900 to divert his 100, could It be said that he has Buch a reasonable use of the 900 as to constitute an appropria tion of It? Or, suppose that when the entire 1000 inches are running, they so fill the channel that by a ditch she can draw off to his land 100 Inches, can he then object to those above him appropriating and using the other 900 inches, because It will so lower the stream htat his ditch be comes useless? This would be such an unreasonable use of the 900 Inches as will not be tolerated under the law of appropriation. In effect, this Is substantially the principle that plaint iff Is asking to have established." The opinion concludes: "My opinion Ik that the plaintiff's claim, that he Is entitled to have the river remain In the condition he found It, cannot be sustained, nor that he Is entitled to should, if possible, be settled before the parties are put to the expense of a trial on the merits. All the ques tions so ably presented by counsel have been carefully considered, but It has not 'been deemed necessary to discuss all, or any, fully, here, but for the reasons stated, the demurrer Is sustained."
