Of the state south Of The Old Trails

that traffic preference for the north

truction of an orchard on the Joy
place near Finley, in August, 1917, by
fire originating on the right of way
of the railroad in cheat grass and
spreading therefrom to the orchard.
The case was holly contested and the
jury, after an hour and half of de-
liberation, brought in verdict of $3.50
in favor of the plaintiff. Damages
were asked for in the sum of $1,000.
H. w. Desgranges, Fred Rebman,
Alton Russell, G. E. Finley and F. R..
Monroe were among those called as
witnesses. C. L. Holcomb was asso-
ciated with Attorney Spencer of Port
land, representing the railway COM
