Water rights ruling in Alaska court upholds appropriation supremacy
Judge Wickersham in Juneau affirms the right to appropriate water on public land for mining, overruling subsequent riparian claims. The decision, praised by proponents, notes government policy supports exclusive access for prior claimants and warns against schemes by speculators seeking to harness streams for large mining interests. Roosevelt, Harriman, and Lawson are referenced amid unrelated commentary, while Edith McGorray's marriage to Schwab and a $2,000,000 wedding gift are noted in passing.
