This is an appeal from the district court affirming the decision of the board of county commissioners, which decision in part sustained and in part overruled the decision of the commissioners of Good Road District No. 1 in Washington county.
The commissioners of said good road district took under consideration a petition in writing signed by twenty-one inhabitants and taxpayers of said good road district, asking for the laying out and opening of a public road through the north half of section 16 and the south half of section 9, township 10' north of range 5 west of Boise Meridian, in said county. The commissioners of the good road district granted a part of said petition and ordered said proposed road opened through the south half of said section 9, but refused to make an order opening the road through the north half of section 16. An appeal from that order was taken by the petitioners to the board of commissioners of Washington county from that part of the decision refusing to open the proposed road through section 16. No appeal was taken from that part *272of the decision of the commissioners of the good road district granting the opening of such road through the south half of section 9.
The matter was heard before the board of county commissioners of Washington county, and said board reversed the decision of said good road commissioners opening the part of said proposed road through section 9 and affirmed its decision refusing to open that part of the road in section 16.
An appeal was taken from said order of the board of county commissioners to the district court and there the case was tried de novo. The district court sustained the decision of the board of county commissioners and entered judgment, dismissing the appeal. This appeal is from that judgment.
Several errors are assigned, the first of which is that the board of commissioners of Good Road District No. 1 erred in refusing to grant the petition for a public road through the north half of said section 16; second, that the board of county commissioners of Washington county erred in reversing the order of the commissioners of the good -road district granting the petition of appellants for a public road through the south half of section 9, and also in denying the petition for a public road through the north half of section 16; third, that the district court erred in refusing appellant’s motion for judgment on the record on the ground that no> protest had been filed against the granting of said petition, and no- legal objections made to have said road declared open; fourth, that the district court erred in affirming the decision of the board of county commissioners; fifth, that the court erred in admitting certain exhibits on the trial of said case.
This proceeding was brought under the provisions of sec. 1058, Rev. Codes, as amended by the Laws of 1909, p. 172, which, among other things, provides as follows:
“The board of good road commissioners shall have power to receive road petitions and lay out, alter, create and abandon public highways within their respective districts, subject to an appeal therefrom to the board of eounty commissioners of the county in which such district is situated, in *273the same manner in which appeals are taken from the board of comity commissioners to the district court.”
As above stated, there was no appeal taken from that part of the decision of the commissioners of the good road district granting the opening of the road through the south half of section 9; hence the board of county commissioners had no jurisdiction in the matter. Regardless of that fact, the board of county commissioners set aside the order of the good road commission in locating a road through the south half of said section 9. Since it had no jurisdiction to vacate an order that was not appealed from and properly brought before it, the order of the good road commission was not vacated by the decision of the county commissioners.
Plaintiff appealed from the entire order of said board to the district court, which upon a trial de novo sustained the action of the board of county commissioners.
The question is raised as to whether there is any appeal from the order of the board of county commissioners in this matter. However, we conclude that under the provisions of sec. 1950, Rev. Codes, an appeal may be taken from any act, order or proceeding of the board of county commissioners by any person aggrieved thereby.
The good road commission under the law has certain discretion in the laying out of public highways, but their action in that regard may be reviewed on appeal to the county commissioners, and the action of the county commissioners may be reviewed on appeal to the district court. That is the procedure that has been followed in this case.
The question then presented for determination is whether the district court erred in denying said petition in its entirety, or at all.
We have carefully read the evidence in* this case, and it clearly appears to this court that the district court erred in holding that the petitioners were not entitled to have any part of the road petitioned for declared a public highway, and we think the action of the good road commission ought to be sustained in establishing the proposed highway through the south half of section 9 and in denying said peti*274tion as to establishing the proposed highway through the north half of section 16.
As above stated, the county commissioners had no jurisdiction to set aside the order granting said petition so far as the highway through section 9 was concerned, and for that reason the district court had no jurisdiction in said matter.
The' admission of certain exhibits offered in evidence is assigned as error. After an examination of the matter, we are satisfied that the court did not err in admitting those exhibits.
The judgment of the district court will therefore be modified and the decision or order of the good road commission will be sustained. We therefore conclude that the establishment of said road as made by the order of the good road commissioners through the south half of section 9 is valid and must be sustained, and that the action of the board in refusing to establish a highway through the north half of section 16, as proposed by said petition, must be sustained.
The cause will be remanded to the district court to enter judgment in accordance with the views expressed in this opinion. Costs are awarded to the appellant.
