' 1ecIBton in the contempt cao brought by
' the Nebraska Telephone company agant C.
h P .1. Smyth J.V. . Idgcrton , .3. C. 1)ahlrnati
and 0. IA. LaWR. The court flnis the cbarge ,
trUes decIare. that the aetendants have ds.
obeyed the order ot InjuncUon , which , "be-
Ing wHiftilly ( lOflC , confltute fl cotlteinpt of

BcrlheR no further penalty thati that the defendants -
fendants AhnIl desist from ftirther proceed.
1ng an4 pay the costs of this suIt. It Is
nnythlng but. flattering to the attorney general -
oral , as It holds thnt the deernlnntB acted
n contempt from Ignorance ot the law and
of the rules of the court.
Accompanying the order h the full text
of the opinion of the court , its fotlowB :
On the 8th VIny of July the court sustained
the defendant's dcmuTrer to Plaintiff's pe-
titlon , dissolved the , temporary Injunction
before granted In behalf of plaintiff , dis-
rnIsc.I . plaintlit's action end fixed the
amount of the suporscdca bond. Two
orderH were signed , one sustaining the (10-
murrer and dIsoIvtng the Injunction , the
other dismissing the action Inl flxing the
amount of the bond , but both were entered
at one time.
On the ihth day of July the defendants
vero proceeding n though the bond filed
by plaintiff ( ltd not suspersede Urn order
iissolvlng the injunction , on the theory that
the order tupcracedetl was the one dIrnIss-
Ing the case and not the one dissolving the
Injunction.
Section 677 of ( ho code provides that
"when the decree or final order dissolves
atiy order of Injunction which has been
grnntcl , the stipersedens bond shall be In
such sum as the court shall precrlhe S
and uc1i superseduns bond shall stay the
( Icing of the act or acts sought to be
restrained by the stilt and continue such
Injunction In force until the enso Is heard
and finally determined In the supreme
court. "
It Is conceded by defendants that If the
two orders had been In one order that then
the filing of the bond would have superseded
the order ( iIssotvlng the Injunction. 'rue
4 ' court is at thu opinion that the two orders ,
' . 2 beIng entered at the same time , are in
3 effect one order and that the legal right
of the lalntitT to no appeal ought. not. to
110 defeated by the form of the orders
entered ,
The court does not pass upon the ques-
tlon whether parties appealing mu unnecessarily -
necessarily delay hearing by failing to per-
feet their ippeal In the supreme court.
Parties are allowed twenty .lays to file their
bond and they must be allowed a reason-
I , . able titan In which to perfect theIr np.
( ' peal , and the court does not believe that
from the 8th to the 1'ith of July was sum-
cleat time.
Counsel for the plaintiff state that they
vQro proceeding to file their transcript In
the supreme court when proceedings herein
were c.nimenccd by thin board , anti that
they have no ( lISDOSItiOn to make delay.
No apparent Intention on' their lmrt to

fications being that Ebrlght took for his own
use two warrants amounting to $350 drawn
