depends ON to secure @ conviction, Ihe
case came up for trial this morning ana
viii not be concluded until late his
afternoon The leading llue Of de-
fense attempted by the accused party
is To prove that the selling of the
lauor occurred more than two years
before the making out OF the lndct-
mtnt. aud Is therefore outlaWed.
Wares legend OF the an important
bottle Of whisky IS that one day ne
pitched his camp on the banks Of the
soft flowing Ulntah river, and that he
saw near his camp on the Waterslde
another camp Of a white man named
REYNOLDS and that In the evening ne
went over to this mans camp, ana then
and there negotiated with him for
bottle OF nrewatcr, which the said Rey-

sIderation OF the court lie is older
than the others, and does not frater-
nlze with them After court adjourned

that could be overheard were TOO
much days. Me no got money, All
time bed house, 50 eat house, heap
tired
When asked how he enjoyed being a
witness IN court he replied through
an Interpreter that he knew nothing

and would not talk ABOUT it to anyone
else.
A popularity OF Indians, according
to the interpreter who II with the band
Of braves az the federal court, Is that

SUPREME COURT.


According to an opinion rendered by
the supreme court today salt Lake Clly
viii have to pay 10 Aryllla Tlmmony,
Administrative OF the estate OF John 81
Timmony, deceased, the amount OF the
Judgment rendered IN her favor IN the
district court, namely SL2OA and costs,
The action was brought IN the court
below to recover the above amount for
fees due Mr. Tlmmony for poll tax cases
tried by him for the city while he was
city Justice OF the peace between Oct,
5, 1898. and Nov. II, 1900
There were over 800 poll tax cases
filed In his court by the city during that
time, but the city refused to pay the
filing fees ON the ground that 1t was
part OF HIS duty as city justice and
that ne was paid a salary Of $1,000 per
annum 10 handle the city's business.
Judgment was rendered against tnv
city and an appeal was taken TO the
supreme court
In the opinion OF the court wrlttea
by Chief Justice Baskn and concuTea
IN by Justices Bartch and McCarty, II
is held that an action to recover poll
tax Is an action IN debt as provided
by statute over which other justices OK
the peace have jurisdiction aud not
within the exclusive jurisdiction Of the
city Justice and hence a city justice
is entitled 10 collect such fees for theu.
as is provided IN the statutes. The
Judgment is affirmed with costs
RIGHT OF WAY CASE.
The supreme court handed down an
opinion today affirming the judgment
OF the lower court In the case OF the
Oregon Short Line Railroad company
appellant, against Moyan c, Fox,
trustee, and T. NJ Hayden. The action
was brought TO condemn a right Of
way across defendants land for %
railroad track and judgment Of c0n-
demnation was made IN the court be-
low and the Jury assessed Foxs dam
ages at S2,.3GsS and the damages to
Hayden's leasehold interest at SlO49.24
from this Judgment an appeal was
taken.
II was contended by the railroad
company that II previously had a right
of way across the southern part OF de-
PENDANTS land, and that It abandoned
that right Of way and asked 10 con-
denim another right Of way across the
northern part OF the land abOuT o mile
distant from the first right of way by
abandoning such right of way Il claim
ed that no damage was done by SIM
ply changing the right Of way 10 the
other end OF the land and it should
only have been liable for the value OF
the land taken. II further claimed
that the abandonment Of the FIRST tract
OF land was a benefit, and that the
company should have received credit
for such benefit In considering the Ques-
tlon OF damages
The opinion of the supreme court,
written by Justice McCarty and con-
Cured IN by chief Justice Baskin aud
Justice Bartch, holds that the aban-
donment Of the original right Of way
could have been no benefit 10 the land
sought to be condemned I'm this action.
and that there was no obligation on the
part Of appellant to abandon It's first
right Hence the Judgment Of the
lower court Is affirmed.
