SUPREME COURT OPINION.
Lower Court Affirmed In Hague VS..
Nephi Irrigation Company.

In the case of John Hague VS.. Nephi
Irrigation company, appellants, the su-
preme court yesterday handed down an
opinion, written by Justice Bartch, and
concurTed in by Chief Justice Zane and
Justice Miner, affirming the judgment
of the trial court.
The controversy was over the use of
the water of Salt creek in the town of
Nephi, the plaintiff claiming the right
to the use of certain portion thereof
for manufacturing purposes, and the
defendant the right TO divert a part Of
such portion for the purpose of irriga-
ton before its subsection to the plain
tiff's use.
The suit was brought to ascertain
and determine the plaintiffs right to
the use of the water to have his title
thereto quoted and to have the de-
PENDANT and its agents restrained from
diverJing away from his mill any por-
ton Of the water to which he was en-
titled. The district court granted plain
tiff the relief asked, and thereupon the
defendant appealed, with the result
stated.

arrived at his home station he was not
furnished with any conveyance to take
him to his residence, and was. in his
weakly condition, obliged to walk two
miles, all of which aggravated his
sickness, and on Sept. % he died.
Plaintiff alleges it was the duty of
the company TO have provided him
with good paint, properly mixed; to
have furnished him with transporta-
ton home when he was sick, and also
to have furnished proper quarters for
eating and sleeping. Their failure to
do this, it is alleged, caused his death,
and the plaintiffs demand judgment in

awful Winter. 1t has never been, and
can never be, the true centre Of Rus

surround its glorious river-the one
