The William Hanley Company haH
filed a petition In the Circuit Court
asking that the adjudication of the
water rights of Silvies Itlver be re
manded back to the Division Super
Intendent for the purpose of taking
further testimony and making a new
determination.
In a- king for this the petitioner
sets forth. that since the adjudication
changes have been mode In the East
Fork by the petitioner and the I. U,
S. Co. in which the channel has been
opened up and a new channel dug for
the purpose of more economical and
less wasteful use of the water and to
prevent over Irrigation of the landa of
the two companies. In this channel
was placed u stop gate to regulate
the overflow of the lands of tho pe
titioner which had previously not
been required because of natural ob
structions. The petitioner states that the de
cree as rendered by the Water Board
gives water users in the Lawen dta
trht priority over its lands and this
interferes with the regulation of th
stop gate pieced In the new channel
dug alBM 1 hi' adjudication testimony
was taken.
Petitioner asks the case be re
manded that It may introduce testi
mony showing the priority of the
right! of the William Mauley com
pany lands. This, contends the pe
titioner, can lie done by Introducing
Of Kil. Hanley. who was
ol the Hanley holdings dur-
when the w liter
rights of the Valley generally were
Initiated, This witness was not aalt-
1 ti,, time of taking testimony,
