Rival Water Boards Contest in Umatilla Court Fight
Residents of Hermiston and Pendleton gathered as Circuit Judge Bean hears the dispute between factions of the Umatilla Water User's Association. The case hinges on an injunction over books and funds with the Interior Department backing the “new” board and the “old” board seeking permanent injunction. Attorneys indicate a lengthy, contentious battle as evidence is largely documentary. The two sides are R R Johnson and Lowell Winter for the new board versus Francis H Bartlett and Fee Slater for the old board.
