WAS NOT THE FIRST.
Judge Lunt's Decision on Miners Lien
Cases Antedated Two Months by
Judge BoughtOn.


In the Rocky Mountain News of Tues
day appeared decision handed down
[ by Judge Lunt of the district court al
Colorado Springs, holding that lessee
could not create lien against a mine
The points of the decision as given are
as follows:
First-The law, leaving out the con-
sideration of the Proviso, does not give
to person furnishing material or labor
to lessee of a mine or any other prop
ertY a lien that will reach the interests
of the lessor or owner of the tee.
SeCond-That the provso to section s
of the act does not furnish any basis for
such lien. 1t is also so obscure and
vague that it Is incapable of interpIeta-
ton and hence imperative.
Third-Tha, the law taken as whole
does not show any intent upon the part
of the Legislature to give such lien tor
materials or labor furnished in such a
case as against the interests of the lessor
or owner of the fee.
The writer then proceeds to show that
the decision on this point was the first
given on the subject in this state, though
as matter of fact a similar decision was
handed down by Judge Boughton In the
October term of the district court in
Boulder antedating Judge Lunt by two
months. The Camera Oh October 8, had
the following item in reference to Judge
Boughton's decision:
"In the case of Search VS.. Langridge,
Mackey, ct al in the district court, Judge
Boughton yesterday held that the lessee
Of mine could not create lien against
the owner of the mine. There were some
special points in the case wherein it dlt-
fers from other cases where such lien is
sought to be enforced. In the present
case a notice was posted conspcuously
at the mine that the owners would not be
responsible tor debts incurred in work.
ing the mine, and miners went to work
with knowledge OF this notice. Judge
Boughton held that the proviso saying
that the law should not apply to mines
worked by lessees when worked in small
blocks of ground did not necessarily
imply the converse, towit, that it should
apply for lessees debts when worked as
a whole, that to incorporate into the lien
law so important feature as the Gre
alton of lien against the owners by the
lessee, required IN his Judgment more
positive enactment"
The importance of the decision was
recognized and commented upon by the
Boulder attorneys at the time of the de-
cision. The credit of being the first to
settle the much mooted question should
be given to the one to whom It belongs
and in this instance it clearly belongs to
Judge Boughton.

OPEN CUT IN RATES
Il What h About to Happen In Eastbound
Endeavor Business.

Chicago, July 13.-An open cut in the
eastbound Christian Endeavor sales is
one of the strong possibilities. Califor-
mia lines have been officially notified
that one will be ordered if they do not
live up to the terms Of the original
agreement regarding these rates.
Advices from San Francisco show
that they were about to set the agree
ment at defiance in at least three vital
particulars. They proposed to pay COM
missions on the business. they wanted
to alplow stop-overs in territory east OF
California, and they desired 20 increase
the number Of dates OF sale Of tickets.
The executive committee Of the West
ern Passenger association, after con-
sidering the matter. decided that was
tire only effectual way OF stopping de-
moralization arising from that source.
So far as the other two offenses were con
cerned, the lines INDUCING in them
were notified that neither stop-overs
east of California nor extra dates for
selling tickets could be allowed, as
solemn contract had been entered into
with the western lines to that effect, and
it must be observed TO the letter
