Show BEAVER MEN ASK WITHDRAWAL OF SUIT Water users on the Beaver river system have petitioned the Fifth district dis-trict court for withdrawal of an order or-der directing the state engineer to make a determination of water rights on the stream in connection with the pending adjudication suit, according to the Deseret News. The survey was started this week by Reil Jerman, assistant to George M. Bacon, state ' engineer, who has just returned from southern Utah. It appears that the water users have concluded that differences which gave rise to the suit being started several years ago have lately been settled out of court by purchase of certain lands and water rights and that now some hold to the view that there is no need to conclude the adjudication, ad-judication, Mr. Jerman said. The court has not as yet acted on the motion and in the meantime the survey sur-vey is being carried ahead. |
