Syllabus

<p>HIGHWAYS-ESTABLISHMENT BY COUNTY COMMISSIONERS-REVIEW ON APPEAL.</p> <p>The matter of establishing a road being by Laws 1895, p. 82, left wholly to the discretion of the board of county commissioners, and their action in that respect being the exercise of quasi legislative authority, the refusal of the board to establish a road upon petition therefor does not present a question which the superior court can review on appeal, since that court cannot take cognizance of eases requiring the exercise of other than purely judicial power.
