Wool-le- y - - STOCKMAN LOSES CASE Carbon Preston Nutter, wealthy cattleman of Carlton, Emery and Duchesne counties, Utah, and Arizona, loses in the a i eal taken by Uarbou county to tie supreme court from the judgment of Judge George Christensen, in the Keveulh district court, relative the assessment of Nutters live stock iu Carlton couuty. The decision ia of keen intercut to owners of range he stork, end involves the methods to be followed ill assessing such stock. Nutter, who owns alwiut 70H1 head about of rattle in Arizona and 000 of these each year to Utah, selling as many from this state after they have reached tbs market age told the assessor of Carbon county that he thought he had about 1000 lead of cattle end twenty horses in Carlton county at the time the assessment was made. The assessor woe not entirely satisfied that the information waa definite, and after making inquiries of livestock men and elsewhere, assessed Nutter for 1500 tesd of rattle and thirty head of lorsea. The stockmau spiraled to the county commissioners, sitting as a Imard of equalization, and reiterated to them hie statements to the assessor. In neither instance was he dared under oath. When the county board of equalU sat ion stood on the assessors figures, (utter paid the tax under protest and took the ease to the rourts. Judge Christensen took the evidence of (utter end hia witnesses under oath, and decided that both he and the county assessor were wrong and that aa a matter of fart Nutter had about 209 cattle in Carbon county et the time the esseaHinrat was made. From thie judgment the county appealed end the decision of the diatrirt court is reversed by the eupreiue court, which holds that the district court isd no authority to perform the work of the county assessor or board of equalization for them. The (district) court," says the sushould preme tribunal of the state, isve confined its inquiry to the facte and circumstances aa they were made to appear to tha assessor and to the ward of equalization, and from inch facta and circumstance! it ahould iave determined whether the assese-me- nt waa maliciously, Co.

( Nutter owned and controlled by leases about 40,000 acres of land in Utah, of which 30,000 are in Carbon eonuty, and in addition ranged hie rattle over irectically three townships of publie domain according to the evidence in the case. The supreme court points out the impracticability of attempting to count these cattle, and also that Nutter at no time protected either himself or the assessor by making a statement either under oath or in writing. In this connection, remarks the court, it is important to remember that plaintiff admitted that he may have had 2000 heed of range cattle in Utah and in addition to that number also 200 head of breeding cattle, in January, 1915. lie had returned for assessment 600 head of cattle in Emery county and 100 head in Duchesne county, making 700 bead in alL Deducting those 700 head from 2200 head would, according to plaintiffs own statement, leave 1500 head. Assuming, as we must, that he honestly listed all his cattle in Duchesne and Emery counties, how can it be said that the assessor or the board of equalization of Carbon county acted unlawfully, maliciously, capriciously or fraudulently in assessing 1500 head! They may have erred, but there is nothing on which to rest any finding of fraud or malice." The supreme court points out from previous decisions that it ia firmly committed to the doctrine that if the act of the eounty board of equalization was a mere error of judgment, and waa not unlawfully, maliciously or fraudulently done, the courts are powerless to give relief. The case is ordered back te Carbon county, where the district court is ordered to grant a new trial and to proceed in accordance with the views expressed by the supreme court.
