MONTESANO, Wash. July 2S.-Jud,se
Aver. of Thurston county, sitting for
Judge Hodgdon, OF this county. has just
handed down decision in the case Of
Lytle vs.. Nelson. II Is the first TO be
given under the Heath boom bin. The
case In brief was this: Lyle had driv
ing dam on a branch of the Hoquiam:
Nelson was logging above him and built
another dam. When Nelson drove his
legs down with the water from his own
dam. they were stopped by Lytie's dam.
from which the boards had been removed
to let the water waste. Lytle atterw ard
run the logs through. and he wanted TO
collect 60 cents thousand for driving
the logs.
The court holds that. as affecting Nell
son. Lytle's dam was an obstruction IN
the river and that he cannot collect any
thing from Nelson.
