OF Interest to other localities. The case
Is quite complicated. II. NJ. Niles, one of
the defendants, is All artesian well con-
tractor. June 4, 1894, he entered into a
contract with he county board of this
county to sink an eight inch artesian
well in Richland township for the sum
of $o,001. When he we'll was partially
completed the county board advanced
Miles $4,101 .9S. leaving still unpaid the
sum Of $S99.02. +. T.. Drury, county
judge and artesian well commissioner.
examined the well when completed and
recommended that it be accepted. April
Z, 1894. the county board entered into
another contract with Miles for sinking
an eight inch well In Brule township.
After work on this had commenced the
chairman and one member of the board,
assuming to represent the county, made
an oral agreement with Miles and
changed the size OF the well to six
inch. The well was completed in ac-
cordance with the modified agreement,
and Miles. while the work was in prog
ress. received from the county board
the sum of s3.039. 20, leaving s764.75 still
due him on this contract. The artesian

the acceptance Of this well. September

order on the count board for $3.50, and

Blodgett was also given an order. for

company later made an assignment also
and Fred O. Davis, the assignee, COM
menced suit against the county board
and Messrs. Miles, Blodgett and Brenne
for the recovery of the mount due from
Miles. In his decision Judge Smith
holds thai bills of the contractor or his
assignees for the moun claimed to be
due under the contract must be made
out and presented to the artesian well
commissioner and approved by him be-
fore being presented to the county
board, or before the county board can be
compelled to draw warrants upon the
artesian we'll fund. This was not done
in the present case and is held to be
fatal to this part OF the action. 1t
is held that the county is not a party to
the action, as the county board simply
acts as trustee for the townships which
decide by ballot or petition to sink arte-
sian wells. The persons benefited pay
for these by Means of a special tax as
sessment and levy, the amounts thus
collected being placed in a special ar
