Legal  Questions 
Electric  Wires  Along  Farm  Property 
Will  you  tell  me  what  rights  myself 
and  next-door  neighbor  have  in  prevent¬ 
ing  a  private  company,  the  county  or 
town,  or  the  State,  from  erecting  electric 
light  or  telephone  poles  along  the  road  in 
front  of  our  properties,  where  both  own 
the  land  on  either  side  of  road?  The  vil¬ 
lage  is  getting  electric  lights,  and  they 
are  delivering  poles  along  the  main  high¬ 
way.  coming  our  way.  Neither  my  neigh- 
bir  nor  myself  have  been  asked  our  con¬ 
sent.  We  do  not  want  the  lights,  and  do 
not  wrant  poles  along  our  properties. 
What  can  we  do  to  prevent  them  placing 
poles?  And  in  case  they  actually  put 
them  up,  what  can  we  do  to  remove  them? 
We  own  land  both  sides  for  a  long  stretch. 
Electric  wires  before  our  places  will  spoil 
our  farms  for  us,  in  our  opinion. 
New  York.  B.  K.  A. 
With  your  general  statement  it  would 
be  imposible  to  advise  you  accurately 
with  reference  to  the  rights  of  transpor¬ 
tation  corporation,  such  as  an  electric 
light  company,  to  place  its  poles  and 
wires  along  the  highway  abutting  your 
premises.  It  has  been  held  that  where 
title  to  a  highway  is  in  the  abutting 
owners,  subject  to  the  easement  of  the 
public,  and  an  electric  light  company, 
without  having  procured  the  right  to  do  so 
from  such  owners,  either  by  grant  or  con¬ 
demnation,  erects  its  poles  and  wires 
conveying  current  to  a  more  distant  point 
and  not  for  lighting  the  highway,  the 
company’s  act  is  an  invasion  of  the  rights 
of  such  owners.  And  an  abutting  owner, 
who  owns  the  bed  of  the  road,  may  en¬ 
join  its  use  for  any  purpose  inconsistent 
with  those  uses  to  which  roads  are  ordi¬ 
narily  subjected. 
It  will  therefore  be  necessary  to  know 
whether  or  not  you  own  to  the  center  of 
the  highway,  whether  or  not  the  elec¬ 
tricity  is  to  be  used  for  the  purpose  of 
lighting  the  highway,  and  many  of  the 
necessary  elements  which  are  incident  to 
an  application  for  injunction.  You  will 
therefore  have  to  consult  an  attorney  in 
your  locality,  who  can  make  careful  inves¬ 
tigation. 
It  would  seem  that  rather  than  being 
an  injury  to  a  farm,  electric  light  wires 
carrying  electricity  along  the  highway 
near  the  buildings  would  be  an  asset  to 
the  farm.  Perhaps  you  do  not  wish  to 
use  the  electricity,  but  if  you  wished  to 
sell  your  property,  you  might  find  that 
you  could  demand  a  much  larger  price 
with  electricity  ready  for  use  in  the  build¬ 
ings.  n.  T 
Rights  After  Foreclosure 
Through  force  of  circumstances  my 
farm  was  sold  at  sheriff’s  sale  last  week 
How  long  can  I  hold  the  place,  as  I  have 
my  crops  in?  My  neighbor  insists  that 
I  have  nine  months  or  more  to  redeem 
said  property.  Are  my  crops  and  tools 
my  own  by  law,  or  can  they  bring  judg¬ 
ment  against  them?  ‘  j.  c.  B. 
Ohio. 
The  laws  of  the  State  of  Ohio  provide 
that  there  is  no  redemption  of  lands 
after  sale.  No  stay  of  execution  is 
allowed  except  where  the  case  is  taken  up 
to  a  higher  court.  There  are  certain  ex¬ 
empt  ions  from  sale  under  execution,  such 
as  wearing  apparel,  necessary  household 
furniture,  certain  domestic  animals,  tools 
and  implements  of  the  debtor  necessary 
to  carry  on  his  trade  or  business.  N.  T.

Water  Supply  from  Adjacent  Property 
Four  years  ago  I  purchased  a  small  farm 
located  about  one  mile  outside  the  village. 
Running  water  is  piped  into  the  house  by 
gravity  from  a  well  on  adjoining  prop¬ 
erty.  This  water  right  has  been  in  un¬ 
interrupted  use  for  over  40  years,  but 
there  is  no  record  of  the  original  grant. 
No  interference  has  ever  been  made  with 
the  exclusive  use  of  this  well,  as  the  other 
house  is  supplied  by  another  and  nearer 
well,  which  it  has  always  used.  It  also 
has  a  creek  running  near  the  house.  In 
the  past  week  new  occupants  of  the  ad¬ 
joining  property  have  laid  a  pipe  into  my 
well  and  apparently  intend  to  draw  their 
supply  from  it.  The  well  is,  however, 
insufficient  to  supply  both  houses  in  dry 
weather.  Should  1  notify  them  imme¬ 
diately  that  I  have  the  exclusive  or  prior 
right  to  this  well,  or  should  I  wait  until 
my  water  supply  is  actually  interfered 
with  before  taking  action?  Should  I 
apply  for  an  injunction,  supported  by 
affidavits  of  people  who  have  known  the 
property  for  over  20  years,  or  must  I 
wait  until  the  actual  damage  is  incurred? 
Is  it  uot  against  the  State  health  laws  to 
interfere  with  the  water  supply  of  a  dwell¬ 
ing,  and  if  so,  cannot  the  county 'author¬ 
ities  be  asked  to  intervene?  Is  there  any 
other  step  which  I  should  take  for  the 
protection  of  my  right  to  this  water? 
The  parties  in  question  have  so  fat- 
shown  themselves  entirely  unneighborly 
in  other  matters,  therefore  I  do  not  be¬ 
lieve  that  any  “friendly  remonstrance” 
will  avail.  a.  b. 
New  York. 
If  there  was  never  an  actual  convey¬ 
ance  of  the  water  right,  probably  the 
only  rights  which  you  have  of  the  water 
in  question  are  those  of  a  licensee,  and 
a  mere  verbal  license  is  revocable.  Prob¬ 
ably  your  best  procudure  would  be  to  use 
the  water  when  you  can  get  it,  or  better 
still,  drill  a  well  of  your  own.  n.  t.
