change in their haunts would be of

One, or even two. inspections would
not be sufficient to enable the bio

turned from that district where he
has been studying the conditions IN
der which the elk bands are living
now. He said there was sufficient
forage to support the animals for the
winter, and that he found conditions
better in the Gallatin section.
1t is believed that the only thing
that IS likely to affect the elk this
year would be the tail of a wet snow
and a freeze following Immediately
afterward. In such a case, It is aid,
the forage would be difficult to reach
through the ice coating.
Deep snow alone does mt hinder
! :hs animals from getting down to the
feed, it is pointed out.

the law court Wednesday in two
cases. one from Cumberland county
and one from Aroostook county.
Cumberland Case
The exceptions of the petitioner
are overruled in the Cumberland
county case of Margaret Roberts. ct
ais, VS.. the Portland Water District
The rescript, which was drawn by
Associate Justice Charles j. Dunn
OF Orono, is as follows:
By invoking the power of eminent
domain, the Portland Water District
took and preliminarily occupied GER
tain land in Standish that these pc
titioners owned, for the laying out
and construction of pipes and other
waterworks improvements.
The land owners petitioned that
commissioners rass on the necessity
for taking their land, asserting the
taking to be unnecessary.
Commissioners reported that the
exigency necesSitated the taking of
the greater part, but not ALL of the
land for proper public uses. The
report was confirmed. And. though
the matter was not formally up, the
court by mutual request ruled on
costs, the ruling being favorable to
the respondent. Exceptions were
reserved and allowed.
Review in cases of this kind works
out thusly: If, in the public eXigency
it Is unnecessary to appropriate the
property. there Is an end of the
thing, except that the owner is en-
titled to Judgment fer taxable costs.
Where necessary to take. it is for
the condemnor to compensate the
land owner justly. according to his
interest and the quality of his estate.
for that which was taken from him.
reasonable opportunity to be heard
on damages to be afforded. And
where, as here. It Is necessary to
take part only of the land. then,
with like chance for hearing. the
condemnor must make Just amends
for the part taken, the award of
compensation to be on the basis of
the extent of the damage to the
whole lot by reason Of the taking OF
part.
issue is. who, in this case, within
statutory meaning, Is the prevailing
party? The respondent is. The dis
trict prevailed upon the trial ten
dered by the petitioner, though II
was given less of the land than IT
mad taken. Ing "a SNahiHS peA ~ ~
the marty in whose favor the judg-
ment is entered. although, in the
course of the proceedings, he made
certain claims upon which he was
held not entitled. and as to which.
though not otherwise, the other par
tv prevailed. Judgment was against
these petitioners: they did not pre-
vail.
Exceptions ,overruled.
Aroo.took Case
The appeai of the defendants Is
dismissed in Willard Durand's case
from Aroostook county.
The rescript. which was drawn by
Associate Justice Charles J. Dunn of
Orono, is as follows;
An accident cost Willard Durand
his left arm, The limb was crushed
between a log and a standing tree.
Mr.. Durand at the time was an en-
ployee of the Portage Lake Mill
Company. He was then hauling logs
for that company, in the woods about
so miles away from Its saw mill
Durand's employer, in asserting to
the workmen's compensation act act,
recited that the Kinds of business
included" were Lumber and those

incidental" "at Portage. Maine, an

incidental" "at Portage, Maine. and
vicinity" No employees We're ex-
pressly excluded. The insurance
policy that was filed with the assent
took in employees in sawmills, lum-
Der yards, Work cooks furnishing
board for employees IN connection
with numbering risks, drivers and
drivers helpers and others. In stat
ing the locations Of workplaces, the
policy mentions Portage. but is silent
on the subject of vicinity. The en-
ployer. on the authority of the policy
had no other business operations, "at
this or any other place"
The question is whether Durand
was included in the assent to the
workmen's act. He was in the wods
about Fish Lake. The very logs. the
team he drove was drawing. were
destined to come out of Fish Lake
into Fish river and float down that
stream to his employers mill. 1t
was essential to the business of the
employer that logs be supplied to he
sawed into lumber. a sawmill with
out logs to saw would be almost as
useless as "a painted ship upon a
painted ocean"
vicinity is n relative term; It's
rhetorical estimate depends upon no
arbitrary standard of distance or
topography. ConsideSed with refer
ence to its application IN the present
case, 1t would be doing violence to
the record to say that there was no
evidence to sustain the finding of
the chairman of the Industrial acct
dent commission, that the logging
was incidental to the business Of
saving lumber that the Fish Lake
woods were within the vicinity of the
mill at Portage for which the logs
were cut, and that Durand was COM
pensable.
The appeal is dismissed with costs
and the decree below affirmed.
So Ordered.
