WEEKLY WOODLAND. CALIFORNIA. FRIDAY EVENING, AUGUST 10, 1010. DAILY ESTABLISHED 1877 TRANSACTION OF VAST IMPORT Lake, Yolo and Solano Water Rights Involved Yolo County Consolidated Company to Make Transfer to Porter Forg'ens LOCAL ITEMS BRIEFLY TOLD Occurrences That Will Interest Woodland People, Items of More or Leas Importance Picked Up Here and There on the Wing. From a source that we consider absolutely reliable we learn that a trans- 'action has been closed that is of statewide interest and of special importance to Lake, Yolo and Solano counties.

Il involves the biggest irrigation project. on the Pacific coast. The Yolo County Consolidated Water Company, the stockholders of which are Yolo county capitalists, and which has acquired all the rights and interests of every irrigation system that has been organized in the county, has contracted to sell the entire property of the corporation to Lieutenant-Governor Warren Porter and 3. W. The sale is outright and the deal will be closed as soon as an agreement Is made between all the land adjoining Clear Lake and the purchasers to raise the level of the lake so that an unlimited supply of water for irrigation and power purposes may assured The company has already secured such an agreement with, most of the land owners and there will probably be no difficulty in obtaining an agreement from all others.

As soon as this detail is arranged the property will pass into new hands and a new era of development will be inaugurated in the counties in which the system is or can be operated. The importance of tile deal cannot be overestimated. Lieutenant-Governor Porter Is a wealthy banker and capitalist of'Wat- sonville and 3. W. Forgeus is a wealthy Santa Cruz capitalist and the owner of the big Eakle ranch in Colusa county.

He Is a very successful business man and has been behind some of the biggest deals ever put through in this state. The two men can control sufficient capital to finance the water company, an amount that runs up Into the millions. Fraternal Brotherhood dance August 2(5th, See 50-cenl column.

NEARLY' LOST A NOMINEE The Republicans came very near having no candidate for supervisor in the third district. Several men were importuned to allosv their names to be written on the primary ballot, but they declined emphatically. At tho eleventh hour W. 0. Russell of Davis and a resident of Woodland visited W.
