the Case in Court.
The Benwood Council has issued
final declaration to property owners
who have refused to put down side
walks in front of their property as fire.
quently notified, and state that they
will proceed at once to put down the
pavements at the expense OF the city
and then assess the property owners
for the costs, as the law provides.
The dispute between a few of the
property owners of Benwood and the
Council has grown quite warm. and
the members of the Council declare
that the matter will be settled as they
desire before the city election, when
their terms of Office expire. Some
time ago the Council instructed the
property owners along Water street to
put down curb and paving, and after
being notified repeatedly the property
owners neglected to heed the requests
OF Council. Finally the Council had
the curbing put down at the expense
OF the city along Water street from
Fourth to Eighth streets, and again
notified the property owners to pave
their walks. With a few exceptions
this notice has been neglected like
previous ones. Several of those whom
have not complied have assured Coun-
ell that they will do so. A couple of
others, however, question the right of
Council to compel them to pave their
walks. One of these, according to the
statement of one OF the Counciimen,
yesterday, has declared his intention
of resisting the order of Council, and
if necessary will contest the legality
of this particular section of the law Of
Benwood's charter before the courts.
Councilman August Hepe stated that
DR.. II. T. Ford, who owned property
on Water street had notified Council
through Squire Henry Riddle. that he
would refuse to make the improve
ments demanded and that if the city
made the improvements and assessed
the costs against him he would fight
the case in court Councilman Hepe
says that Council has decided, how
ever, to do the paving in front of DR..
Fords property and carry out the in
structions of the law in this particu-
lar. This will be done Immediately,
according to the Councilman's state
ment, and will likely be followed by
legal contest The law in regard to
the laying of curbs and sidewalks is
very plain. The following is given
from Section 10, of the Charter Of
Benwood, adopted February 22d, 1895:
If the owner or occupant of any
sidewalk, footway or gutter in such
city, or of the real property next adj
jacent thereto, shall fail or refuse to
curb pave or keep the same clean, in
the manner or within the time re-
quired by the Council it shall be the
duty of the Council to cause the same
TO be done at the expense of the city,
and to assess the amount of such eX-
pense upon such owner, or occupant,
which expense shall be a lien upon
said real property, and the same may
be collected by the sergeant in the
manner herein provided for the col
lection of the city taxes, or by suit in
equity in the Circuit Court of Mar
shall county, at the expense of Coun-
