MASTliRS, Vice Trcs. M. Q. COH, Cashier. Laidlavv, Or., June 31 The net result of the watertight hear Inge for the first week is dismissal of about 35 contests against the Co lumbia Southern Irrigating Co., the trial of one case on an amended complaint and partial hearing o( another, wulcli Is still In progrrss. When Water Superintendent Saxton called the docket Ut Wednesday there whs slicnuotn ob jection on the part of the Columbia southern Irrigating (Jo. to going to tiial. William T. Muir of Port land, counsel for the company, pre scuted through another Portland attorney,. G. F. Martin, an afli duvit and motion for continuance. This move was resisted by most of the settlers. The superintendent ruled that there could be no con tinuance except on agreement of the turtles. Since the parties could not agree, the superintendent set Monday for taking testimony, designating the case of C. W. Al len against various parties to be beard first and the Witner case to follow. Monday morning the contest of C. W. Allen vs. C. S. I. Co., G. G. Gerking, G. E. and J. C. George, D. M. Smith and C. J. Mock was called. An amended complaint was filed adding 35 set tlers as plalntlUs witu Mr. Allen and not including the company and the Georges as defendants. Upon the issue thus made up testimony, was taken. C. P. Becker and F. R. Harbour were the only oral wit uesses lor the plaintiffs. They testified that no water was used upon the lands in question by de fendants prior to 1904. S. J. Ne,w some of Prineville, the only oral witness for the detense, testified as one of the incorprators of the old Three Sisters Irrigation Co. that water was appropriated for these lands before there were any proceed ings under the Cary Act in Oregon. Thus the plaintiff sought to show that defendants, who are outside the Columbia Southern segregation, have no rights antedating 1904, (prior to which date plaintiffs' own rights are alleged to have ac crued), and defendents try to establish their right through au old diversion before operations were inaugurated under the Cary Act. The rest of the evidence was documentary. V. A. Forbes of Hend and W. S. Ashton of Potttand represented the plaintiffs and Myers & Young ap peatcd for defendants. A motion for nonsuit was made when plain tiff had closed, but it was merely entered in the record. Today the cases of O. W. Wlmer against the C, S. I. Co. and the company against the Wlratrs, hav ing been consolidated lor one Hear ing, are in progress and promise to occupy two or three days. C. S. lietison of IJcnd and M. E.
