Persons who shall for twenty years have made use for the irrigation of their lands of pluvial waters descending a ravine or gully, or any other similar channel of public ownership, may object to owners of higher tenements depriving them of this use. But if they shall have used a part of the water only, they cannot prevent others from using the remainder, provided the course of the amount which they previously used remains unimpaired.
