Waterman v. Southern Coos General Hospital District

Since this proceeding is brought by individuals only, and the state is not attacking the legality of the organization of this municipal corporation, we seriously doubt, even though defendants do not raise any objection, that we should entertain this appeal. School District v. School District, 34 Or 97, 55 P 98. See also Mr. Justice Lusk’s dissenting opinion, Portland Gen. Elect. Co. v.…
