OF LIMITATION
Supreme Court Holds That Par
tial Payment Extends Life
OfNote From Date Paid.

BOISE, Idaho. Nov. 24--An opin-
ion handed down by the supreme
court reyerses the decision OF Judge
Steele. Of Nez Perez county in the
case Of /. J. sterrett. appellant, VS..
8. B. Sweeney. respondent an action
for debt which the trial court held
for the defendant and from which de-
eision the plaintiff took an appeal.
The suit was brought by the plain
tin to recover judgment on a prom
issory note for 5000. The opinion in
the case Is written by Judge Stewart
and is concurred In by Judge sulli-
van and Justice AiIshie. The sylla-
bus by the court follows:
Il. Under the provisions of section
4Sl7 OF Ballinger's Ann. Code Of
Washington, partial payment made
upon a prOmissory note, after due
and before the statute of limitations
has run, Axes the date OF such pay
ment as the time from which the
statute begins to run.
> %. The statute OF limitations
does not mean that the debt has
been paid. 1t Is a PERSONAL privi-
lege which the law gives to the debt
or whereby he may say that the debt
10 stale. and for that reason should
not be enforced.
20. This statute Of Washington.
however, says to the debtor that IL
he acknowledges the indebtness BY
making a payment thereon, 1t be-
comes an acknowledgment that the
debt has not been discharged and
recognizes the debt as in existence
and fixes the date OF payment as a
new date from which the statute be-
gins to run.
-. This statute In effect declares
that the making OF partial pay
ment by debtor. after the maturi-
ty OF the debt and before the statute
OF limitations has run, Is a waiver Of
the debtors privileges to the claim
that the maturity of the debt as the
date from which the statute begins
to run.
IS. Where a resident of this state
goes into the state OF Washington
and makes a partial payment upon a
Washington contract after its ma
turity. and before such contract is
barred by the statute of limitations
OF that state, upon his return to this
state the contract follows him as
made, and is enforceable under the
laws Of this state. and the statute of
OF this state begins to run
upon his re-entry into this state, af-
ter su"h payment.
IS. In order to determine the APP
plieatlon Of the statute of limitations
OF this state to a contract entered in
to in the state Of Washington, 1t Is
necessary to examine said contract
and the laws of the state Of Wash.
lhBtoh TOT the purpose OF determin-
ing the date from which the statute
runs.
-. A general finding that all the
material allegations of the answer
are supported by the evidence and
truth. and that all the material allie
gttions of the complaint In conflict
with the foregoing findings are UNI
supported by the evidence and I'M
true. Is sufficient to support a judg-
ment.
IS. Whether residence within this

Of the contract, its maturity. and the

the MERRY WIDOW HAT.

To the mere man observer the
new spring millinery is marvel
Gus and mysterious. A woman's
hat $50 called of the spring of
'08 is a good deal like that of '07
in general appearance, but the
close observer will note changes
in some important details. For
instance the front porch has been
extended so that it runs all
around. The awnings have been
made larger and the chimney,
which used to be in front has
been set over on one side.
Two dormer windows have
been added to the second story
and the whole color scheme has
been changed so that rs tints are
now used, where 43 used to be
considered sufficient. A little
fence now adorns the ridge pole
is decorated lavishly with the lat
est colors in single tints. There
is also flag staff flying various
strange looking streamers. We
also note the use of queer orna-.
mentation suggesting punches of
spaghetti over the front gable.
The climbing rose bush which
crawls up the rear, twines around
the side balcony, falls over the
roof and runs under the caves is
decided Improvement. On the
whole the hat will pass -if the
street is wide enough. Elk.
