No. 12,078.
    Maggard v. North Sterling Irrigation District.
    Decided April 22, 1929.
    Messrs. Coen & Sauter, for plaintiff in error.
    Messrs. Munson & Jones, for defendant in error.
    
      Department Two.
    
   Mr. Justice Butler

delivered the opinion of the court.

This case and the case of Barlow v. North Sterling Irrigation District, 85 Colo. 488, 277 Pac. 469, just decided, were tried at the same time. George W. Barlow was the owner of the land, and B. F. Maggard was the tenant. Each sued for damages sustained, it is alleged, by reason of negligence on the part of The North Sterling irrigation district. The two cases are submitted to this court upon the same record and briefs. The decision in the Barlow case is controlling in this case.

The judgment is reversed.

Mr. Chiee Justice 'Whiteord, Mr. Justice Moore and Mr. Justice Burke concur.
