Retrenchment In the cost of ope
ration! of the county water master's
office for the remainder of this year
and next year,' was proposed by J.
R. Ryan of the state water master's
office this morning In a report to
the county court. Ryan has been
studying local conditions for tne
past week.
The plan calls for reduction of tne
water master's force to the water
master and one assistant, ellmlna
tton of all service to Irrigation dis
tricts, maintenance of the main lrri
gatlon canal from Bradshaw Drop
to the city Intake, and letting tne
six irrigation districts take care 01
their own petty troubles, heretofore
devolving upon the water-master's
office: 1
Ryan reported that the new policy
would result in a saving of ap
proximately 12000 this year, from an
estimated cost of $12,000 and
saving of 6000 next year from the
same estimate),
Too Many fomninlntn.
The state official also stated that
It was the practice of several Irriga
tion districts to telephone four or
five times dally, registering com
plaints about water thefts, ditch
breaks and overflow and that hence.
forth the districts and the water
users would be compelled to settle
these disputes among themselves,
Without an arbitrator.
He said the - water master had
Jurisdiction over 20,000 acres (a the
county at "a cost of 60 cents per
acre, which is too high."
Reduction in the service and the
efficiency was ' made necessary, it
was stated, because of the failure ot
water users to pay their assessments
which were at a low level. He gave
as causes' for this condition the state
of the times and the drouth, it
was felt that heavy winter rains and
the return of rosier financial daye
would alter ' this situation. - i" -'

, A rural proposal advanced some
