JONES CASE AFFIRMED.

The supreme court has affirmed the
judgment of the First district court
in the case Of William Jones against
John Blythe and has taxed the costs
of the appeal To Blythe. who was the
appellant.
rms case is one in which Jones sued
Blythe for damages on an allegation OF
trespass. Jones alleged in his COM
plant, and the testimony agreed with
the allegation, that Blythe wilfelly
ANA maliciously permitted hera cf
his sheep to trespass upon Jones land,
which was untenced Jones used his
land for cattle pasture and after the
sheep had been over the land tn Q
cattle would not feed on It, judy
ment was awarded Jones for $3.50.
Slytho took an appeal
The principal citation of error by
Blythe was that the court had refused
TO instruct the Jury which tried the
case, to find the verdict for Blythe up
on the ground that the pasture in ques-
ton was unfe1ced. The opinion as
handed down today holds that while
the statute denies the right for the
owner OF unfenced land to impound
trespassing animals and hold them for
damage done, still the laws of the
state do not deny the injured party
to enter suit to recover Judgment for
damages done

NEW DUTIES FOR POLICE
Stranger Attempts 10 Check Parcel
OF Dynamite With the Desk
Sergeant.

A stranger, having the appearance OF
being a miner, walked into police
headquarters this morning and stated
that he would like to leave package
there In care of the police. He ex-
planned that he was intending to take a
train out tomorrow morning and had
no place to leave the parcel other than
at headquarters. The bundle he carried
looked innocent enough but Captain
Burbldge asked what it was.
"Oh, it's just 10 to ~ pounds of giant
powder an some caps" quietly ex-
planned the stranger.
well, you can't leave it here" said
the captain
Cant eh?" asked the stranger, well
wen see If / can't. What's the police
station for, anyway? OF course, I'll
leave 1T here. Ye don't think I'm agoin
ter carry tn stuff about town with me-
do we? ] amt got no other place ter leave
1t an here it'll stay til / take the
train"
The man evidently meant what he
said and was preparing to depart, min
us the giant powder and caps when
Captain Burbidge hauled him back In
the meantime there was stampede on
the part of several officers for fear
there would be an explosion. The
stranger was finally impressed with the
fact that the police station was not a
powder magazine and departed with his
precious freight.

DISTRICT COURT REVERSED.
Supreme Court Hands Down Ruling in
Another Durand Case.

The supreme court has answered the
questions put before it in relation to
the certioran proceedings of l.. p.
Lund against Ellen Ivers which was:
Has the district court, in such a pro-
ceeding. the right to go behind the
face of the abstract and inquire into
matters presented to it on a mere mo-
tion?" The answer of the justices OF
the supreme court is negative. The
history of the case Is somewhat unique.
Two years ago an abstract of judg-
ment from the Justices court at Muir
rag was filed In the Fourth district
court at Provo. the judgment being in
favor of Lund as against Mrs. Iyers.
Mrs. lvers then entered the
court with motion TO can
eel the filing and asking that 1t be
vacated. Her ground for action was
that she had never heard of the ac-
ton being brought in the Murray court.
She also pleaded that she was never
indebted to Lund. Her motion was
granted. Lund took his case to the
supreme court.
The supreme court says that the
docketing of the Judgment in the
Fourth district court did not give that
court jurisdiction of the action in
which the judgment was rendered. The
supreme court orders the judge of the
Fourth district court to annu the
order cancelling the filing of the judg-
ment. the abstract having been in con-
formity with the statutes.

CAREFUL FINANCIAL POLICY.
Executive Declares the Times Demand
il Both for Public and for

That the only proper policy Cor 1905
in Salt Lake is a tight sitting on the
financial lid, Is the conclusion Of Mayor
John S. Bransford The cause for II ls
assigned to be the general financial
reverses of the country, which call Tor
the most conservative policies IN ca

THE fact that hundreds OF men ale

cial enterprises are more active, there
is no justification for freely spending,
either IN public or in private business.
For private business affairs,
should say that these are times for The
most cautious kind of retrenchment.
For Salt Lake as a public corporation,
do not look for any shrlnkage In the
revenue. our 1908 revenue should DC
more than our 1907 revenue, for the
reasons that assessable values have
fallen very little.
INCREASE IN LICENSES.
Yesterday three women called upon
the mayor.
For years" they said, "our license
has been $50 per year" They were the
owners of a well known hotel.
This year" they continued. Our
notices require us to pay $3.50 per year
Why this enormous raise?"
What did the license collector give
as the reason for the raise?"
HE said that our hotel mad the NUM-
Der of rooms for which the ordinances
require a license of $3.50"
Then you can't get any relief here

Mayor Bransford, after carefully go
ing over the matter with other city Of
ficials has come to the conclusion that
the license regulations are capable Of
bringing In s25, 600 more each year than
they actually produce, all this through
their more rigid enforcement.
The fact that much less business
promises to be done by merchants IN
1908 than In 1907. is matter which VIII
affect keenly the total net revenue, but
This Is a matter which the merchants
and not the city must worry over, ac-
