Land Disvisions Then Supreme Court Rules In Two Sixth District Cases

The Topeka State Journal reports two sixth district land cases reaching the supreme court by mandamus. One case grants the writ, allowing J T Price to pay $875 to Graham county treasurer and claim title to a school land tract valued around 1600, despite initial payments and defaults. The other case denies James A Wilson mandamus to compel appraisers to value land for settlement, affirming appraisers’ statutory authority to appraise.
