(No. 5008.
    December 27, 1928.)
    FEDERAL LAND BANK OF SPOKANE, a Corporation, Appellant, v. ROBERT T. STEWART, LEMHI COUNTY, STATE OF IDAHO, a Municipal Corporation, et al., Respondents.
    [272 Pac. 1029.]
    L. E. Glennon, for Appellant.
    Frank L. Stephan, Attorney General, Leon M. Fisk, Assistant Attorney General, and Francis R. Hall, Jr., for Respondents.
   TAYLOR, J.

This appeal is from a judgment on demurrer. The ruling was based upon the ground that, as against a real estate mortgage, the lien of personal property taxes levied against property of a mortgagor in years subsequent to the execution of the mortgage, and entered upon the real property roll of the county against the land mortgaged, has priority over the mortgage.

This ease does not differ in principle from that of Scottish American Mortgage Co. v. Minidoka County, ante, p. 33, 272 Pac. 498. Upon the authority of that decision, the judgment is reversed, and the cause remanded for further proceedings in accordance therewith. Costs to appellant.

Wm. E. Lee, C. J., Givens, J., and Hartson, D. J., concur.

Budge, J., dissents.
