Howard, . filed applica tion with the city council for a permit authorizing the construc tion of a school building in Lau relhurst addition, to house ap proximately 120 children. Members of the council later viewed the property and recom mended that the permit be grant ed. Subsequently, a number of persons owning property in the Laurelhurst district filed remon strances, and on August 15. 113 a. the council rescinded its previous action and voted against granting the application. The remonstrators alleged that the property to be occupied by the proposed school was located in a restricted district, and that the erection of the building would depreciate materially the value of other property in the Laurelhurst section. The Catholle church then fil ed suit in the Multnomah county circuit court demanding that the permit to erect the school build ing be granted. Judge Norton, af ter hearing the arguments, grant ed a mandatory Injunction, from which the defendants appealed to the supreme court. "The right to own property is aa Inherent right," the, supreme court opinion read. "The right of ownership is subject to the su perior rights of the public to ap propriate such property tor cer tain public uses on payment of Just compensation. The light to own carries with it the right to use that property In any manner that the owner may desire ao long as such use will not Impair the public health, pease, safety or general welfare." in anotner opinion the su preme court upheld the writ of the state treasurer, latervenor, in an original mandamus pro ceeding brought by Morris, Ma ther e company, to .collect ap proximately $12,585 dee as in terest on bonds issued by the port of Astoria.
