Representative Kahn Plans
To Reorganize Army

For the purpose OF bringing about a
reorganization of the United States
army, from the ground up" Repre-
sentative Kahn of California, and a
member OF the House Committee on
Military Affairs, today declared that he
would introduce a resolution in the
House providing for a joint Congress
sional investigation into the military es-
tablishment. .,. -
Representative Kahn said he had been
led to take this course by the conviction
that the army bills now under consid-
Grafton are attempts at piece-meal leg
islation. He declared today that the
enactment of the Hay bills, though in
tended for economy. would prove most
expensive in the end.
Representative Kahn's resolution,
which will be introduced this week, will
provide for Inspection of the army and
army posts in various parts Of the coun-

CHEMAWA SCALPED
THE WILLAMETTES

The Chemawa Indians succeeded in
taking the scalps of the university
baseball team with a vengeance yes
terday afternoon, The game was rot
ten from the first inning, when the
Methodists ran in four runs on er-
rors. The second inning Chemawa
made five runs, and later piled up
six more scores, Willamette only get
ting one, which made the final score
II to D. Every man on the varsity
team was chalked up with one or
more errors. 1t was a decidedly off
day for the Methodists and their su-
periority over the Indians will assert
itself next Tuesday, when the Will
lamettes will play them on the Che
mawa grounds.
The day being cloudy and windy,
made it bad for both teams, and such
an exhibition of errors will not be re-
peated by the local team this sea-
son.

Prices varied considerably, a number
being offered for less per square yard

hence be guilty of at least a techni-
cal trespass.
The principal question in the case
is whether injunction will lie to pre-
vent continued trespass. Originally
the rule was that injunction would
not lie in the first instance prior to
a judgment at law to prevent tres
pass unless the threatened injury
was such as would cause permanent
and irreparable injury to the free
hold, such as removing ores from
mines or cutting down choice shrub
berry, or destroying dwelling houses
or the like, or in the further instance
that the defendant was insolvent.

later authorities establish the doc
trine that where the trespass is con-
tinued. made up of successive acts,
each comparatively unimportant in
itself, and the threat and intention to
continue is manifest, equity will en-
join the same for the reason that
each separate trespass forms sep
arate cause of action and it would
be idle to require the plaintiff to
bring a distinct action for each one
of the samll trespasses. 1t would
be a waste of time and serve no good
purpose for the plaintiffs to bring an
action at law for every different
landing made by the defendants upon
their land without authority. The ac-
tual damage accruing from each
landing would be comparatively in
significant and to try out each in
stance in an action at law would lead
to multitude of actions, the princi-
pies Of which could be determined in
one suit in equity. In this case the
plaintiffs claim no damages but only
seek to prevent the continuation Of
the trespasses of which they COM
plain. The authorities are numerous
that equity will entertain their bill
for that purpose, especially when
persistent invasion of plaintiffs
premises would eventually work out
the establishment of an easement in
favor of the defendants. Shaffer V.

LAW CLASS
HAS BANQUET

The members of the senior class of
the law department Of the william
cite university sat down to a sumpt-
Gus banquet at the Hotel Marion last
evening. Besides the members of the
class. there was present Charles L.
McNary, of +he law firm of McNary
& McNary, and dean of the school,
and after the banquet and the tables
had been cleared the embryo lawyers
turned their attention to speech
making.
Sidney Graham, clerk of the circuit
court, acted as POSTMASTER, and in
troduced the first speaker of the ev-
ening, Mr.. McNary's talk was in the
way of bunch of wholesome advice
to the young lawyers relative to the
practice of law. He impressed upon
them the fact that the law business
at the beginning was trying and slow,
and that they must not allow them
selves at the outstart to become dis
couraged.

has been the custom for said period
of over 80 years"
The affirmative answers were ira
versed in material particulars by the
reply and from a decree dismissing
the suit the plaintiffs appeal.
Burnett j.: The defendants avow
that they are constantly making use
of the premises in question as a
landing place and that they will con-
tinue to do so. At the hearing they
offered no proof of their alleged Ii
cense to operate a ferry at that
point. The attempt to claim under
a prescriptive right existing in the
public is futile, for the public cannot
so acquire a right to use private
property bordering on navigable wa
ter as a public landing to receive
and discharge passengers and
freight. Pearsall V. Post, % Wend.

Talbot v. Grace, 80 Ind. 3S9.
To prevail on such a title the de-
PENDANTS must prescribe in their own
right and that Of their predecessors.
In other words, they must plead and
prove title by adverse possession.
To this there are five essential ele-
ments necessary: First, the possess
sion must be hostile and under a
claim of right; second, it must be
actual; third, it must be open and
notorious; fourth it must be exclu-
sive; and, fifth, it must be continu-

The testimony shows that these
landings are made upon plaintiffs
premises during the several months
of high water on the Columbia River
and that they have been more or less
interrupted, sometimes by fences
and some times by the stage of the
water. There is no showing that
this use of the bank has been other
wise than by acquiescence or per-
mission of the land owner, constitut-
ing mere revocable license. These
essential elements of adverse pos
session are wholly lacking in the
proof. 1t is claimed also by the de-
PENDANTS that there is a public way
which has been in use for more than
20 years adjacent to the slough from
which the landings in question are
made and that they are exercising a
right to land upon the public high
way which they are entitled to enjoy
without hindrance from the plaintiffs.
But the testimony shows that this
road is merely adjacent to the slough
and at all points there is a narrow
strip of land between the ground
actually occupied by travel and the
bank of the slough upon which the
boats land. Hence parties leaving
the boats at those points in going to
the road would necessarily cross the
small part of plaintiffs land and

SHOOTING on THE STREET.
One Negro Shoots AnOther-Sh00ter
Fined in Mayors COurt-Carried
to Sessions Court.

Monday morning Mayor J. J. Lang
ford had a Saturday afternoon shoot
ing scrape before him. Ned Wilson
and John Lawie were charged with
using blasohemous language on the
streets and cursing each other. Lewie
had his case dismissed and Wilson
was fined S23. These are the two
that had the shooting scrape Saturday
afternoon. For firing his pistol and
striking Lewie, Wilson was fined 500.
The. shooting occurred in front OF
the store of L. Morris in Main street,
while the street was in a crowded
condition. Two Of the balls from Will
sons weapon lodged in Lewie's body.
One shot missed the mark. Lewie did
no shooting. Wilson was taken to
the guard house and locked in, while
the wounded man was carried to DR..
Ellesor's Office, and was attended to
by Drs. Ellesor and Glider. One Of
the balls was extracted, the other is
still inbedded in the person Of LeWie,
who is able to be out walking about
with his wounded leg.
The two men had been at outs for
some time on account of domestic
trouble, Wilson, it seems, being the
aggressor all around. He lives on
Boge Williams Wel1@ place, eight
miles from the city. Lewie lives on
Mr.. Jno. R. Spearman's place, in the
same section.
When Wilson settles with the city
council he will face another court.
There is a warrant from Magistrate
J, G.. Sample for his arrest, charging
him with carrying unlawful weapon
and for assault and battery with in
tent to kill.
Since the above was written Wilson
appealed his. case in mayors court.
and got out on bond, the warrant from
the MAGISTRATES court being served
by Constable T. P Adams, who also
made the arrest on the first charge
Saturday and turned the prisoner over
to the municipal authorities, and after
they were through with him sent him
up to the higher court.

Mr.. W. N. Brown, the Southern Bell

three of the higher officials of the sys-
tem-Mr. J. L. Moore, Jr., division

Mr.. F. D. Marshall, district plant

thing satisfactory to date, and the
outlook promising. In connection
herewith the following may be of in
terast:
"The fact that 542 new telephone
stations were established in this city
during 1910 indicates just how rapid
" the city is growing, both through
the ingress of new inhabitants and
through the unparalleled increase in
business. But while this increase IN
the use of the telephone in Charles

gratifying, the statement that more
than 200 South Carolina farmers in
