AFTER WATER GRABBERS Valley Irrigators Bring Suit Against Riverside Pumpers—Insists Upon Rights. Another water lawsuit is on against Riverside, this time to restrain the enterprising people of that county from pumping all the water from the river. The plaintiff is the Santa Ana River Development Company, which has brought suit in equity in the United States Circuit Court in Los Angeles against a score of Riverside water companies and private individuals. The lawsuit has threatened for years. The Santa Ana River Development Company is the corporate name for an association formed by the Anaheim Union Water Company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company. The association avers its lands are threatened with the entire loss of irrigation water, if the defendants are allowed to pump from the bed of the Santa Ana river in Riverside county. The surface and subterranean flow from the river has filled miles of irrigating canals and its waters have added many millions of dollars to the value of orange groves in Riverside county. At first the stream furnished sufficient water and to spare, without recourse to pumping. But, as the demand for irrigation grew each year, company after company was forced to divert a part of the waters to its intakes and canals. Juan Orosco, Officer, Placed Under Arrest Juan Orosco, as brave as ever wore a star, a gun, was foully slain at Lily on Sunday night at midnight going by the name Orosco was called to quell riot at a fandango, where brandishing a revolver and the role of a bad man. To the place and arrested he was walking out of the with his prisoner, Borrega walking ahead of him, turfully and fired a bullet through heart. The latter fell off tracks.

At first the stream furnished sufficient water and to spare, without recourse to pumping. But, as the demand for irrigation grew each year, company after company was forced to divert a part of the waters to its intakes and canals. This increasing demand for water has caused the gravest apprehension among riparian owners situated at points lower down on the stream. An effort was made to come to some amicable arrangement whereby the first users of the water would only take what was considered a fair share. But all negotiations have come to an abrupt ending with the filing of the suit. To show the extensive character of the litigation, the list of defendants is given. It is: Gage Canal Company, Riverside-Highland Water Company, Riverside Water Company, West Riverside Water Company, Stearns Ranchos Company, Rogers Development Company, Excelsior Land Company, Rivino Water Company, Rosedale Water Company, California Cement Company, Auburndale Development Company, City of Riverside, C. C. Patten, Fred Hizer, Highgrove; C. W. Rogers, C. C. Pond, C. McMillan, Francis Cuttle, Z. T. Brown, P. T. Evans, Riverside; Mary T Smith, F. H Osler, Robert Baldwin, Claus Ahlf and Priestley Hall of Corona. The pleadings go back to the early days of Riverside, when the Gage canal system and the Riverside Water Company commenced to divert water from the river. The bill sets forth when each subsequent company took a portion of the river until it became necessary to establish pumping plants in order to keep up the water supply. Owing to the court vacation, the bill in equity will not be taken before Judge Ross until some time in September. It may be months before a final disposition of the matter is obtained. The attorneys for plaintiff are Richard Melrose of this city, E. E. Keech of Santa Ana, Judge John D. Pope and Judge A. W. Hutton of Los Angeles.

The case promises to be one of the greatest water lawsuits in the history of the state.

Practically all our young people interested in a business, shorthand or Civil Service training can now arrange to get it, such a course being placed within reach of every one willing to try. Those who wish to, may work to pay their board while taking the course. The young person, quick and accurate in shorthand, typewriting and book-keeping today has a better passport to success than the Latin and Greek scholar and at a trifle of the cost. So great is the demand for skilled help in commercial lines the U. S. Government is unable to secure enough stenographers to meet the needs of the service even at the good salaries paid in this work. The San Bernardino Business College can guarantee a position at not less than $70 a month to begin with to every young man of good character and address who finishes a shorthand course there. This school has also arranged with the U. S. Government to hold there the regular semi-annual Civil Service examinations, thus giving its students the chance to prepare for and pass their Civil Service examination at the same place—this being the only school in California making a specialty of coaching for the Civil Service and assisting young people to secure government positions.
