Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Treatise on the Law of Irrigation, Covering All the States and Territories: With an Appendix of Statutory Law In this volume I have endeavored to present, concisely and yet fully, the American law of irrigation. My aim has been to state the law as it is rather than the law as it should be. It would have been easier to make a larger book by including in the text long extracts from judges opinions, as is sometimes done, leaving the reader to work out the law for himself from this mass of material, but I have preferred to give instead the result of my own study of the cases. This course has meant more work for myself, but, I hope, not without a corresponding increase in the usefulness of the book. A conscientious attempt has been made to cite all the cases on the subject, and I believe the collection is practically complete. Except where otherwise noted, only irrigation cases have been included. Cases from other branches of the law of water rights might frequently have been cited in support of the text, but so far as possible I have chosen to confine myself strictly to the subject indicated by the title of the work. But although this book treats of the law of irrigation only, it may be not without interest to those concerned with other phases of the general subject of water rights, for in many respects the law is the same, whatever the particular use to which the water is put. This is especially true of the doctrine of appropriation, which is fully treated in this work. In the Appendix the full text of the irrigation statutes of general interest and application has been given, with the substance of or reference to other statutes pertaining to the subject. I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to the Hon. John P. Shofroth, M. C., for his courtesy in securing for me valuable government publications; to the Edward Thompson Company, publishers of the American English Encyclopedia of Law, for permission to make certain use of an article on irrigation law prepared by me for that work; and especially to Mr. Joseph H. Eaton, of the Denver bar, who has read the entire work in manuscript, and made many helpful and valuable suggestions.
