Lodge, A-. O. U. "W.-,- of -Oregon, appel
lant, was today decided by the Supreme
Court in favor of the Grand- Lodge; Th's
action was'brought In Multn6mah County
to recover J2000 on a certificate of mutual 1
ilfe insurance- Issued 'by the defendant
to Daniel 'Montour, plaintiff's father. The
cause was tried before Judge M. C. Geo gi
andresulted in a judgment fdr""plaintiff J
for ' the slim demanded. The judgment
is reversed in an opinion written by Jus
tice F. A. "Moore.
The plaintiff alleged that her father had

W.' TYLER' SMITH, JOINT SENATOR FROSI . LINCOLN, TELLAMOOK .'AND
. YAMHILL COUNTIES. ;'" '
SHERIDAN, Or.. Oct. 22 Dr. W. Tyler Smith, Senator from the joint -district of Lin
coln, Tillamook and Yamhill Counties, was bqrn In- London, ' England. Ho cams to Of eeon
23 years 'ago, and has been actively encaged in the practice -of his professlbh here' lot 20
years. He Is a physician of marked ability, and a man of high principles, always in
the fronf ranks of advancement. As Joint Sanator from Lincoln, Tillamook and Yamhill
Counties, the Interests Of his constituents will "receive proper attention. ' . '
except those waived by the defendant.
The answer denied, the material allega
tions of the complaint and alleged' thai
on July 1, 1894, an assessment of ?1 each
was duly made upon all the members of
the order, which became due and payable
from Montour on the 28th of that mon,th;
that due notice, thereof was regulany
served upon hlm,sbut he neglected to pay
the .same within three months from that
date, and was "thereupon suspended.?-that
he applied "for' reinstatement but' "was
rejected by "a "majority vote, from which
decision he never appealed, but acquiesced'
therein. It 'was also alleged that by
reason, of Montbur's '"failure in these re
spects, plaintiff is estopped to assert that
'the action of the lodge In refusing to
reinstate her father was Irregular, or to
deny that defendant- has complied with
Its covenants.- - -.-
After an-exhaustive review of the evi
dence the opinion says: "No other conv
olution iff possible than that the lodge
paid $3 only on Montour's assessment, and
that he was -delinquent on jthe July as
sessment when, by his Own act, he be
came Suspended on the 2Sth of that
month. . . . We think, therefore',
that the court erred In refusing to give
the instruction requested.1" (That a ver
dict for the defendant be returned.
""If we have erred in this deduction;
however, . " . there is another feat
ure bf the case which, in our judgment,
is conclusive. ' The financier's report
showed that Montour was suspended for
non-payment of an assessment August 1.
ISM, after which he made no payment of
the delinquent assessments until Novem
ber 19, of that year, and having allowed
more thaiv three months to elapse after
he was suspended, he could not be re
instated on his own motion, but was
required to pass the necessary medical
examination. After passing such examina
tion and being recommended for relnstate
,mentMthe members of his lodge, by a
majority. voterefusd their consent there
to. fromwhich action he never appealed.
and his. wife, wllo testified that shegen-
erany paia nis assessments unu hull au
thority for doing so, accepted for him a
return, of the greater part of the money
which he paid November 19, 1891, and.,Jart
uary 17, 1895, thereby acquiescing in the
decision of the subordinate lodge.
"About November 19 1S94, Montour in
sisted that "he was a member in gooi
standing. But Inasmuch as he thereafter
signed an application for reinstatement,
he thereby admitted that a controversy
existed respecting his position in the
order, and-having submitted the questirn
to the members of the lodge for their de
termination, and not having appealed
from their decision respecting a matter of
which he lodge had jurisdiction,, ho Is
bound thereby. ..."

Opinion by -Moore,- J.
' This was a suit to enjoin defendants
from trespassing upon certain 'real p"rop-
'erty, a placer mining claim in Douglas
County, through which Starveout OeeK,
flows. The trespass complained of was
in connection with the' deposit of debris
on the plaintiff's - claim. The plaintiff
prevailed In the lower court, .and in .af
firming the decree, the Supreme Court
lays down the following rules of law:r
"One Independent trespass cannot be used
as a set-off against another consequent.'
upon it . .. - . No use of the prem-.
ises, however long continued, can be
adverse to the United States and as tho
defendant has not deposited his taiiinccs
on the plaintiff's mine for a period of 10"
years-since the United States parted with
it3 title thereto, no claim to continue such
use can be predicated thereon." '

acres of land, whlqh -conveyance , te
plaintiff alleges was for the purpose of
defrauding creditors. 4 This" proceeding
was brought Jor'the purpose of, removlnsr'
the administrator. " The. Supreme Court
holds that' since' the. administrator owns

lently conveyed, his personal, , interests
are such -as to prevent hinVf ro'm doing his

'"This was a suit. to enjoin the defend

missed by the court below for want at

question necessary to be considered
."Where" there ,ls danger of the
destruction of the estate, or of Irrepara

adequate, 'a court of equity will Interfere
by injunction. In case of ttilntng'pfop
erty, greater latitude Is allowed than in
an ordinary trespass, because the Injury
generally goes -.to the Immediate ded,tf
Hon of the minerals- which constitute the
chief value of the estate. ' . . " . But
it must appear" that the tres-
OPTHE OREGON LEGISATURE
