Judge D. H. Carey will exchange
benches with Judge Meyers, of Seattle,
next week, and Judge Meyers will be at
Newport on Monday, June "a, to hold
session of court. The most important
matter that will come before the court
at that time is the case of Eslick VS..
Bell, involving the ownership of a
quarter section of land near Blueslide.
This piece of land was recently sold to
j. K. Bell at sheriff'e sale, to satisfy
judgment against party named Will
hanson. The claim of Eslick is that
Williamson had no equity in the land,
and therefore the sale to Bell should be
set aside and the title of the land be
quoted in Eslick.
