FAVOR PATROL
IN BEAR CREEK
Past Season Demonstrated What
a Few Dollars Would Do To
Make Highways Excellent

During the past year the town
highways in Bear Creek were pa
troled and the result was so salts
factory that no doubt the work will
be continued in 1924. Six patrolmen
did the work for the town at a cost
of $110 per month. Sixty five miles
of road were patroled. John Mearn,
the chairman of the town, and other
leading citizens were instrumental
in making this fine move and the
roads were greatly enjoyed by the
many who passed through that pic
turesque region. The town of Wood
land partly patroled the town roads
the past season with marked sue
cess.

SUPREME COURT
DECIDES IN TROY
ROAD DISPUTE
Judgment of Circuit Court Is Re-
versed In Case of Peter Schroe-
der VS.. Walter MoeIey

The supreme court of Wisconsin
on Tuesday handed down it's decision
in the case CT Peter Schroeder VS..
Walter Noeley, reversing the judg-
ment of the circuit court for Sank
county in all respects and deciding
that Peter Schroeder was entitled to
a permanent road or right of way
across the land of Moeley to the pub
lie highway No so in the town of
Troy.
This decision ends a long drawn
out and interesting legal controversy
between the parties. Schroeder owns
a farm of three hundred eighty acres
in tire town of Troy, in Sank county,
which is cut off from the public high
way on all sides. For fifty years
Schroeder and his father before him
had been crossing over a part of the
land now owned by Moeley to reach
the public highway This road was
known as the West Road During
the same time another road over the
land now owned by Moeley, known
as the East road, was also used by
Schroeder and his father, but this
road was impossible at many times
of the year and was more hily and
? round about way.
In 1914 Mr. Moeley bought the
farm over which the southwest road
ran and in 1921 got into a contro-
versy with Schroeder and blocked up
the road by locking the gates and re
fused to let Schroeder go through
across his land. He claimed that
Schroeder had no rights in the west
road; that he was only entitled to
use the east road
Schroeder fhen made application
to the town board to give him a road
over the so-called west road. His ap
plication was denied as the board
was uncertain what Schroeder's
rights were Schroeder then started
an action in the circuit court for SauA
county to enjoin Moeley from inter
fering with his use of the west road
anr to have established his per
manent right to use the west road.
The circuit court likewise denied
Schroeder relief, claiming he had no
rights in the west road
Schroeder appealed to the supreme
court of the state and that court held
that the Judgment of the CircuIa
court was wrong in every particular.
They held that as Schroeder and his
father had used the SO called west
road for over twenty years without
any question being raised and with
out any express permission being Civ
en- such user was presumed to be
pen, hostile and adverse from its
lception and did at the end Of such
wenty years create an absolute and
ornament right on behalf of Schroe-
'er and his heirs and assigns tc
sc said west road. Therefore,
Ioeley must keep the gates unlock
d and allow Schroeder to 60
through unmolested whenever he so
lesires and use the west road as mis-
means Of ingress and egress to and
rom his farm.
The case created lot Of interest
n the town of Troy and the result Is
very pleasing to Mr.. Schroeder's
many friends. Grotophorst, Quale &
LANCER were the attorneys for the
plaintiff and Bentley & Meier were
attorneys for the defendant, Walter
Moeley.

of the court is about $500 per da.
and sometimes cases involving no
more than $25 are tried.

City Officials Decide to Close Them to Traffic to Pre-.

out a Handy Bridge.

Great minds, buzzing away on great
problems at the District building.
have hit upon a solution of difficult
ties which arose with the Galliher
lumber yard fire in Georgetown this
week. So many automobiles congre-
gated that some of the apparatus,
responding on second alarm,
couldn't get within several blocks of
the confiagration.
The solution, which is now before
Chief Watson for decision, follows:
Close a bridge.
There are five bridges between
Washington and Georgetown-the X
street bridge, the Pennsylvania ave-
nue. bridge, the NJ street bridge, the
p street bridge and the Q street
bridge. Next time there's fire in
Georgetown one of the bridges will
be closed. Which one? 1t depends
closed will be kept open only for fire
apparatus.
Bridges Scarce EIsewhere,
While the solution of the problem
is well and good for Georgetown, GER
tain hard-boiled pessimists were won
dering today about what bridge will
be closed when the fire-the next one
breaks out in Mount Pleasant, for
instance. For Mount Pleasant, a
highly desirable part of town in other
ways, lacks a good bridge which may
be closed and thereby prevent con-
gestion of automobiles around the
fire.
Other sections Of the city, it was
pointed out today. are woefully lack
ing in bridges to close. One wonders,
