Th*Supreme Court Decides a Yellowitone^County Case.
Thesupreme court yesterday handed
downa division in the case of A. M.^Crawford Vrrsu* The Mlnneeota anj^Montana hand and Improvement com^^pany, brought from the Yellowstone^count) dlr.lilct court. The purpose of^this action was to obtain a decree ad^^judging the plaintiffs entitled to twenty
orlf water flowing In defendants
canal,and to enjoin the defeiidiuiln^frogs Interfering with, or depriving the^plaintiff of such use.
Thecompany years ago be. ante the^owueiM of a large trad of land In Yel^lottstonc county, and built a dltrh from^the Yellowstone forty miles into t|**if^land, for the purpose of Irrigating II.^In October, lt.s:i. (he plaintiff bought^eighty acres of the company's land, nnd^i^. a number of years used IWOsU)^Inches of water from the ditch without 1 EN me^il^any objection from the company. Since^then the company has deprived the^plaintiff of water by using the How^above plaintiff's land. The plaintiff In^^hered he hud a right to the water, and^brought suit in the district court.
Tothe plaintiff's complaint the de^^fendant* demurred on the ground that^It tailed to stute facts sutllclcnt to con^^stitute a cause of action. The demur^^rer was sustained by the lower court.
Thedecision, which I* written by^Judge Harwood, In part la: ^To ud-^Jinlav plaintiff the owner of an Interest^In defendants' Irrigating ditch, to the^extent demanded, would In .fleet , v^lend their Hcnulsltlon to things beyond^and unconnected with the property de^^scribed In tj;e conveyance or the con^^tract to convey, and lhat extension^would be founded In parol evldenee^that certain representation* were made^by the defendants *S to Its purp.net;
ofconstructing such an irrigating ca^^ll t ^ make water available to irrigate^its lands, representation* not even al^legecl to have been made to plaintiff^when he purchased the tract of eighty^acre*, nor Incorporated In any of the^papers executed In reference to the pur^^chase, but merc!^ alleged to have been^made by the defendants during a per^^iod which covers the date of plaintiff's^purchase.'
Lateron the opinion say*: ^If plain^^tiff has enjoyed the use of twenty^inches of water taken out of Ihe ditch,^as alleged, that enjoyment must have^been bv sufferance of defendant, who^exercised dominion over the Irrigating^canal.''
TheJudgment of the lower court was^attlrmed. Chief Justice IVmbertoii and^Associate Justice DeWttt concurring^In Justice Harwood ^ opinion
