All liens on land, provided for in this article shall be superior in right to all mortgages or other encumbrances placed upon the land and the water appurtenant thereto or used in connection therewith. History: Laws 1907, ch. 49, § 52; Code 1915, § 5711; C.S. 1929, § 151-164; 1941 Comp., § 77-515; 1953 Comp., § 75-5-15. Compiler's notes. — The 1915 Code compilers substituted "this article" for "this act," presumably thereby extending the reference to include all the provisions of Code 1915, ch. 114, art. I, not solely those derived from Laws 1907, ch. 49. The provisions of said art. I are compiled as 19-7-26, 72-1-1, 72-1-2, 72-1-5, 72-2-1 to 72-2-7, 72-2-9, 72-2-10, 72-3-1 to 72-3-5, 72-4-1, 72-4-13, 72-4-15, 72-4-17 to 72-4-19, 72-5-1 to 72-5-4, 72-5-6 to 72-5-24, 72-5-26 to 72-5-31, 72-5-33, 72-7-1 to 72-7-3, 72-8-1 to 72-8-6 and 72-9-1 to 72-9-3 NMSA 1978.
