Important Decision.

The supreme court has handed
down two decisions appealed from
Richland county that are of great i'm
portance to farmers who were in mu-
tual hail insurance companies that
went into the hands of receivers be-
fore paying losses, and it may be that
under these decisions some OF tina
money illegally collected may be re-
covered.
The decisions are in the cases of
George S. Montgomery as receiver OF
the Red River Valley Mutual Hail In
surance company VS.. Andrew Whit
beck, and Montgomery as receiver of
the same company vs.. G. A. Tucker,
both of Valley City. Both these cases
we're tried at Wahpeton before Judge
Lauder, who directed q verdict in IA
vor of the receiver. The supreme
court reverses this verdict and gives
an order for the appellants and de-
PENDANTS to recover costs in both the
district and justice courts as well as
in the supreme court.
