Book Description

Excerpt from Paper on the Irrigation Laws and Decisions of California This paper was prepared for insertion in a work on the History of the Bench and Bar of California, of which it forms but a very small part. It contains some discus sion of questions growing out of a live and important subject in this State, and with the permission of the pub lishers, at whose instance it was prepared, it is also is sued in this form for more convenient practical use, if found to be useful. It is not intended as a full or com prehensive treatment of the important questions consid ered, nor are all the authorities attempted to be re viewed, or even cited. The purpose for which it was written would not allow of any such extended treatment. But it is hoped that it may be found interesting, and to some extent useful, to those having an interest in the ir rigation laws of the State. And who is there in the State that has not such an interest? It is believed that there is no more important and far-reaching question, or one which affects more nearly, or more extensively, the best interests and prosperity of the whole State.
