Decision on State Streams.

An opinion Of interest to the state,
relating to the navigability Of certain
streams for the purpose of floating
logs or lumber, was rendered by the
supreme court yesterday in the case Of
the Idaho Northern railroad against
the Post Falls Lumber company.
1t appears that the railroad COM
pany's line ran parallel to Pritchard
creek, tributary Of the North Fork
of the Occur d. Alene river, and in
some places occupied the bed of the
old stream, and in others crossed the
waterway over bridges.
The Post Falls Lumber company
endeavored to float logs down the
stream at the time Of high water and,
as was alleged in the complaint Of the
Idaho Northern, the stream not being
a waterway or navigable stream, the
lumber company was not entitled to
use the stream for floating its logs.
When the freshets occurred, damage
was claimed to have been done to the
bridges, roadbed and other property
Of the railroad, through the tanning
of the logs. Damages were awarded
in the sum of $2697 81 in favor Of the
railroad company and an injunction
restraining the lumber company from
using Pritchard creek for its logs was
granted. This decision of the first
district court of Shoshone county,
Judge Woods, was reversed by the
supreme court.
The court held that any stream in
the state is navigable, on which logs
or timber can be foated to market or
place of use, and that such is public
highway. The court held that it was
not necessary that the stream should
be navigable the entire year, but that
if sufficient water could be obtained
at the season Of high water, the stream
was navig able.-Statesman.
