   MR OHIE.F JUSTICE BRANTLT

delivered tbe opinion of tbe court.

Tbis is an attempted appeal from an order made by tbe district court taxing costs. Plaintiff bas moved to dismiss tbe same on tbe ground tbat tbe order is not appealable. Tbe mo tion is sustained upon tbe authority of State ex rel. Pierson v. Millis, 19 Mont. 444, 48 Pac. 773, and tbe oases therein: cited. We see no reason wby tbe rule long followed in tbis jurisdiction, as appears from these cases, should now be changed.

Dismissed.
