SUPREME COURT DECISIONS
LOWER COURTS REVERSED IN
TWO CASES.
Brigham City Case Involving Title
to Lots Ownership of 1000
Sheep Settled By the Court

The state supreme court handed
down two opinions yesterday, one in
the case of Brigham City VS.. John
Crawford, from the First district, and
the other in the case of James G.
Seventh district.
The first case was a suit for eject
ment, brought by Brigham City against
Crawford, who occupied property at
the intersection of Box Elder and Cam
bridge streets. He claims to have had
possession prior to the time that the
mayor of Brigham City entered the
townsite at the United States land
office.
But the decision of the court was
upon an error in the last trial in the
lower court. in which the case was de-
cided against Brigham City. The su-
preme court holds that the lower court
erred in not permitting Councilman
Larsen to testify as to whether the two
streets bordering the property were
open, and if there was any obstruc-
ton in them. On this point the decis-
ion of the lower court is reversed At
torney B. H. Jones represented Brig
ham City, while Attorney r. H. Jones
represented Crawford
In the second case the supreme court
also reversed the decision of the lower
court. The opinion was by Chief Jus
tice Bartch, Justice Miner concurring
and Justice Baskin dissenting
1t was an action in replevin brought
by Woodward to obtain possession of
2.01S head of sheep. The plaintiff had
received judgment for 2,016 head which
included 1927 delivered to him on the
contract between him and Edmunds on
a Writ issued at the time, and for S641 So
Tor 3S9 head more, the defendant not
being able to deliver that number of
sheep in addition.
Woodward claimed to own the sheep
absolutely but the defendant Edmunds
alleged that 1900 head belonged to him,
and were merely leased to the plain
tiff. The court holds that Edmunds
was entitled to the sheep and Wood
ward cannot recover. Attorneys for the
plaintiff We're Brown & Henderson and
Alex G. Sutherland. while D. D. Houtz
and Soren Y. Christensen represented

UTAH CROP BULLETIN.
Irrigated Crops Made Rapid Growth
During the Week.

Following is a summary of Director
Murdock's weather and crop bulletin,
issued yesterday:
a few light scattered showers fell
during the week ended June 26, but the
greater portion of the state was with
out rainfally. Light frost was quite
general on the morning of the 22nd do
ing slight damage to tender plants in
some localities. The mean temperature
for the week was about normal. Dry
farm crops are in need of rain, but
irrigated crops are in good condition
and have made rapid growth. Spring
wheat is heading out. Sugar beets are
in excellent condition and promise more
than an average crop. Corn is growing
nicely. New potatoes are ready for
use. The cutting of the first crop of
lucern is general; the yield is consider
ably lighter than usual.
