The Hay Case.

The case Of Byron S. Nelson VS..
Quayle Bros, before Judge Osmond
at Paris last week, was decided in
favor of the plaintiff. The deci-
sion is of interest to every hay
shipper in the valley. The facts
are, in substance as follows:
Quayle Bros. bought car load
of hay from Nelson to be delivered
on board the cars for shipment to
Rock Springs. The plaintiff load
ed the hay and shipped it without
the defendants inspecting the
same. The contract called for first
class hay and the plaintiff proved
it was Of the best quality. When
the shipment reached its destina-
ton the buyers refused after some
days to take it. One of the defen-
dants went to the coal camp and
was shown a lot Of poor hay, alleg.
ed to be the Nelson lot. They
refused payment and Quayle Bros.
in turn refused to pay Nelson the
amount agreed on, hence the
suit.
Tie practice of having hay re-
fused after it arrives at its destina-
ton, and then agreeing to compro.
mise for small amount, is getting
to be a common oecuranee, even
when their hay has been Of first
class quality. The decision will
be the means Of having hay thoro-
ughly inspected before it is
shipped, and accer ted by the buyer
at this point at specified price,
after which no compromise will be
permissible.
R. S. Spence appeared for the
plaintiff and John A. Bagley for
the defendants. The case will
probably be appealed to the dis
trict court.

Bills Vetoed

Governor Steunenberg has ve,
toed the following bills passed by
the last Legislatures:
The bill establishing Clearwater
county.
The salary bill was another. II
proposed deep cut on state ofliei-
ais pay. The governor held that
these men were getting little
enough.
The stock grazing measures.
known as the sheep bill, was ye-
toed on the ground of being uncan-
stitutional. A Colorado measure
Of the same kind was SO decided.
Senate bill no. Al, authorizing
towns and cities to establish reeu-
lations governing the slaugter Of
animals for food. The governor
holds that the proposed law would
require farmers to call in an in
spector before killing any creature
destined for the market of an adj
joining town.
senate bill No. 100, to repeal the
provision for the appointment of a
deputy clerk Of the supreme court
at Lewiston. The governor finds
chat the title and body Of the bill
do not correspond.
House bill No. 33, amending the
law relating to the sale Of property
for delinquent taxes. The bill is
radically defective.
House bill II. to repeal the law
regulating the establishment Of
ferries. The title is defective and
the governor holds further that the
proposed law would invite endless
litigation.

that moneys paid the warden for

eners should Be turned at once in

atory act already passed. !

It so defective that it would not Iac-
complish the purpose aimed at.
House joint resolution No. 10, Ito
submit an amendment to the cob

method whereby the salary system
could be made operative.
