Employers Liability.

|. In decision affirming a verdict for
the plaintiff in the case OF Mary a,
Hogle VS.. the Franklin Manufacturing
COMPANY of Syracuse the New YORK
court Of aDDaals extends the liability
of an employer for the acts OF his ser
wants to acts committed OUTSIDE OF
the regular employment 1t seems that
the defendants employees had peen III
the habit OF throwing pieces OF iron
from the windows OF the factory on to
the plaintiffs premises. Inc p1alntlLl
husband asked the president OF the
company to have that practice stopped,
as he fea red that someone would De
hurt. The president promised TO nave
it stopped and he warned the enpioyes
that anyone seen throwing anything
upon the plaintiffs lot would be dis
charged The practice continued until
the plaintiff was hit by d piece OF iron
and badly injured. Suit was brought
on the ground of negligence put tne
trial court set aside verdict FOR the
plaintiff because the acts of the de-
PENDANTS employees were not within the
scope of their employment. suit was
then brought on the grounds or negn-
gence and nuisance, and the Verdict
for the plaintiff has been affirmed by
the court of appeals. Part OF the op1n-
ion follows:
The defendant furnished the place
from which and the means with which
habitual trespasses calculated TO IN
fict personal injury were committed
on the adjoining premises OF the plain
tiff The defendant knew of the prac-
tice and knew that it had existed for
a long time. and while some efforts
were made to prevent it the evil con-
tinued, and even grew worse. An ocea-
sional trespass of this kind committed
by the defendants w6rkmen would not
warrant the jury in finding it guilty
of suffering or maintaining nuisance,
but when the practice became habit
uaI and the injury direct, substantial
and well known, I think the duty of
the defendant became absolute and
that it was, guilty of suffering nuis-
ance to continue on it's land if it did
not prevent the evil.
Judge Vann writing the opinion,
said further that there was high au-
thority for sustaining the verdict on
the ground of negligence without re-
gard to the ground of nuisance, and
he cited case in point decided by the
supreme court of the United States

An Example of What the United
States Has to Offer.


In the early part of March 1855. a
native of Ireland arrived in New
York with So in his pocket He struck
off into the country, asking at every
farm for steady job and paying for
a meal and nights lodging with a
few hours work. He finally found a
place at SIS a month, board with the
farmers family and room in the
garrett Out Of his pay in the course
of time, he bought a hundred acres of
land at a hundred dollars an acre. Tt

a house with his own hands, a barn
with the timber on the land, and, with
the help of his neighbors dug the

civilized communities are guilty of.

of $500 year. lose II days year each

Now that the dry season is at
hand every precaution should be
taken to avoid the starting Of forest
fires. Campers should be especially
careful to see that all camp fires are
extingunshed before leaving camp
and should also be particular to see
that any started are in favorable
places so that any breeze that may
spring up will not fan the flames
and drive the fire into the woods or
dry brush heaps. In past years the
state has suffered enormous losses
from forest fires that might have
been easily avoided had proper pre-
{ cautions been taken and it is to be
hoped that this season will be an ex-
ception to the rule. Aside from the
enormous losses sustained the smoke
from these fires so clouds the sky
and obstructs the view as to make
conditions very undesirable for the
tourist and pleasure seekers who
come to the state annually to spend
the summers. Thus far this season
the forestry bureau has not had one
fire to report, largely due to the
fact that the forests are being well
patrolled by fire wardens. There
are three or four fires on the Cana
dian side but as yet none Of these
have crossed the border and it is to
be hoped that none will. Slashings
should not be burned until late in
the fall when all danger from the
flames spreading has passed.

Portland will hold an apple show
next November that will Guido any,
thing of the kind formerly attempt
ed there. Moreover, it is planned
to make it an annual affair that is
calculated to attract a great deal of
attention to Oregon and Washington
apples. The show will cooperate
with the Spokane exposition, in that
favorable dates in respect to the
Spokane show will be arranged.
Statewide exhibits of apples are
planned and other states are expect
ed to be interested in the affair, I'M
til, in later years, it is intended to
make the show a matter of national
interest. Business interests and
commercial bodies of Portland and
Oregon are getting behind the show,
which is fathered by the Oregon
State Horticultural Society. This
organization, by the way, will have
its quarter centennial next Novem-
Der and it proposes to celebrate il
by starting an annual apple show.
