OREGON SUPREME COURT DECISIONS
Full Text Published by Courtesy F. Turner, Reporter of the
Supreme Court

I in regard to the condition OF its
right of way. and, therefore, there
could be no liability on its part as
the result Of the horse going upon
the trestle. Plaintiffs stock entered
upon the right of way at his risk
and defendant is under no obliga-
tion to make its lands safe for the
pasturage of plaintiffs stock; Ill.
Cent. r. Co. V. Carraher, AZ Ill. 33S;
Knight V. Albert, Pa. st. Az; Den
yer & R. G. Ry. Co. V. Chandler, 8
Colo. 371.
This principle is re-afirmed by the
supreme court of North Dakota in the
recent case OF Corbett v. Great
North Ry. Co, 125 N. w. 1854. In
Hughes v. Hannibal & st. Joe R. Co.,
G6 Mo. 325, 1t is held that the pro-
prietor of unenclosed land is under
no obligation to make it safe for
pasturage, and if the cattle of an
other strlS upon it, and are killed
| by drowning in an unguarded well,
there is no liability resting upon
him for the loss. A railroad COM
pany stands upon the same footing
as any other proprietor" See also
Cyc. 1918.
Plaintiff urges in his brief that
there is nothing in the complaint 10
show that defendant owned the land
upon which the trestle was built, but
that is a reasonable inference from
the allegations of the complaint,
namely: that defendant was en-.
gagged in the construction of the line
Of of railway and had con-
structed a trestle along its said
route The negligence or failure of
duty alleged on part of defendant is
failure to fence or guard the struc-
ture, and not that it was wrongfully
built this being the only ground of
liability alleged by plaintiff. There
being no such allegation, the court
VIII not presume that defendant was
a trespasser in the construction of
its road The defendants right ia
occupy the ground and to build a
trestle will be assumed. The COM
pany was in the actual and eXclu-
sive possession of the trestle and
ground it occupied, which was a suf-
fiicient title against all the world
except one with a better title:

manded.

Wood has ever contracted any debt
since the arrangement between his
wife and himself was entered into.
Unless she was carrying on his busi-
ness in her firm name for his bene-
fit, she can not be held to account TO
his creditors, and this fact is not
shown by the evidence.
While transactions of this charac-
ter, between husband and wife, will
be more closely scrutinized than if
they were between persons not re-
lated, yet the more fact Of such re-
lationship is not of itself sufficient to
justify the court in declaring them
fraudulent. H. E. Wood had mechan-
ical skill but lacked education and
business ability and money. Mrs.
Wood had money, property, eduCa-
tion, and business capacity. Woods
ventures before this arrangement
had always resulted in failure, When
his wife put her property and brains
into the business 1t was a success.
Here is the proof of the pudding.
The woman had foresight enough to
see that, by using her brains and
thrift and employing her husband S
mechanical skill and industry, she
could make a success of the busi-
ness, and now that she has done so,
in small way, we are not inclined
to turn the fruits of her enterprise
over to her husbands creditors She
has not employed her husband S
skill and industry without recon-
pense to enrich herself, but has paid
him or contracted to pay him S65 a
month for his services, which is
probably more than he ever earned
in his life when contracting on his
own account.
We believe the testimony of Mrs
Glenn Wood to be true and so ac-
cepting it conclude that the findings
of the circuit court are correct The
decree is affirmed.

essary, his folks have cared for him.
Last Friday he disappeared and his
folks after searching for him and
failing to find him, appealed to neigh
bors and posse was organized to find
him and after securing the noun
tains for three days he was located
last evening. When found he had
taken off all of his clothes and was
sitting in a puddle of water.
Suffers from Peculiar Mania.
Hurling's peculiar mania is a de-
sire to run away from home and to
pile up rocks and trim trees. A
constant watch over him was neces-
sary to prevent him from accom-
plishing the latter, and while his
folks eXerted every energy to curb
his desires along the latter line they
proved unavailing. He was brought
to the city by Deputy Sheriff Henry
Smith and according to the latter's
story the posse found place after

trees and logs, and piled rock pile
after rock pile. He is a giant in
size and strength but has never ex-
hibited any tendencies of doing vio-
lence to any one.
He will be examined as to his san
ity this afternoon.
