MOTION IN NON
SUIT OVERRULED
Ruling Made in Case Involv-
ing Title to Berg Min
ing Property.

Judge Ed L. Bryan of the Seventh
judicial district court for Canyon
county. has handed down a decision
overruling the motion for non suit
made by the defendant in the case of
c. A. Berg versus Ira z. Barber ct al,
wherein Berg seeks to have title quiet
ed in him. The litigation involves the
Berg gold mine, located in Owyhee
county near Rosters comb. The de-
PENDANT will now be required to put in
his evidence so that the case can be
submitted to the court for final de-
cision.
Judge Bryan's decision is as fol-
lows;
In re c. A. Berg versus Ira e. Bar
Der ct al. At the close of plaintiffs
case counsel for defendant interposed
motion for non-suit. Numerous ques-
tons were raised by said motion
which l think are more or less inn
portant in this controversy. However,
it is the rule of this court that the
power of the court to grant non suits
is cireumscribed by very narrow bounds
and when there is any evidence what
ever upon which the minds of men
might ullIeT OF WHICH HllSnL Dy any
construction lead to a conclusion in
favor of the plaintiff motion for nom
suit will not lie. Without reviewing
the authorities and briefs in detail |
have concluded that it is the duty of
the court to overrule the motion for
non-suit. order may therefore be
prepared accordingly.
Under the previous arrangement l
assume it will be necessary for the
court and counsel to go to OWyhee
county to take the remaining testimony
in this case providing the defendants
wish to introduce testimony. At the
present time | am unable to name a
date upon which the court can get
away but will confer with counsel as
soon as possible with a view to fixing
a date"

PRUNE GROWERS OF
OREGON FORM POOL

Salem, Ore, May 1.-TWO hundred
prune growers in the Salem district
with a combined acreage of 1900, have
entered a pool being formed here. ac-
cording to announcement made by Rob-
ert G. Paulus, manage OF the Salem
Fruit union. About 1000 acres of prunes
in this district are outside the pool
The outlook for the prune crop in the
Willamette valley this year is prob
lematical, Mr.. Paulus says. In most of
of the fruit sections the trees are only
now shedding their blossoms and 1t
will be a week or more before any ac-
curate estimate of the crop can he
made. The prune acreage in the Salem
district is from 10 to per cent more
than last season

Some say it is. The doctors here say
there is probably no other case on
record like the case here of one Of

coyotes from a band of sheep which
he was herding for Andy Little, EN-

that we should have an "all home

will fall in line with us in cutting down
the expense Of keeping a salaried

gested that a league he formed be-
tween the towns in this neighborhood

hoped that an effort will be made to
form such an organization. Newspa-
