¶1Terry, C. J. concurring.
¶2This is a bill filed to enjoin the erection of a toll-bridge on the Sacramento River.
¶3The defendants had procured a license and order from the Board of Supervisors of Shasta County. The plaintiff complains that he is the owner of a ferry legally established, situated near the site of the proposed bridge, and that the effect of the building of the bridge will be to injure his franchise and property. He asserts that various irregularities in the action of the Board, i.n granting the bridge license, occurred; and, among other things, that the Board acted upon insufficient proof in granting the bridge license.
¶4On demurrer, the Court held that the plaintiff was not entitled to an injunction.
¶5Hence, this appeal.
¶6The opinion of the learned Judge of the Uinth Judicial District is in the record, and states the law in reference to this case with clearness and accuracy.
¶7The Board of Supervisors is a special tribunal, with mixed powers—administrative, legislative, and judicial—and jurisdiction over roads, ferries, and bridges, is given it by the statute. Its judgments or orders cannot be attacked in a collateral way any more than the judgments of Courts of Record. (1 Black. 68; 6 Cal. 590.)
¶8By the sixth section of the Act concerning ferries and toll-bridges, (Wood’s Dig. 460,) it is provided that no ferry or toll-bridge shall be established within one mile immediately above or ¡below a regularly established ferry or toll-bridge, unless it be-required by the public convenience, or where the situation of a town or village, etc. It is thus seen that the mere fact of proximity is no bar to the establishment of a ferry or toll-bridge; but the meaning of this section is, that the Board shall be governed, in cases of such application, by its sense of the public convenience. Its direction is trusted on that subject, and its judgment is conclusive. We do not see that any appeal would Re from a fair and proper—if, indeed, from any—exercise *13of this discretion. But if any appeal does lie, the appeal must be made directly to some superior tribunal. Its judgments or orders cannot be collaterally impeached, whether it acted upon sufficient or insufficient proof, regularly or irregularly. (Norris v. Farmers’ & Teamsters’ Company, 6 Cal. 598; 17 Ala. 576.)
¶9Judgment affirmed.
