G. P. Barton, Union, Neb. PERSONS, CAN HUNT AND FISHON OWN LAND Man Need Not Have a License In Order to Enjoy Sport on His Own Land. Does a man have to take out a hunting or fishing license in order that he may indulge in these forms of sport on his own land? It has been decided that he does not. Where a stream is the boundary line between one man's land and that of another the owner of the land can fish and hunt as much as he likes so long as he stays on his own premises. He can have a pole and line long enough to reach clear across the stream and can take fish from the other side, but his feet must stand on his own land. If he owns the land on both sides of the river, of course he is all right. Judge James R. Dean. World-Herald: "When Judge Dean was on the supreme bench numerous political questions came before the court and the value of a bi-partisan court was indicated by Judge Dean's search ing dissenting opinions."
