Fort Dodge Residents Bring
Suits Appealing From the
Paving Assessments
TO COMPROMISE FAILS
City Council Reduced Assessment on
Corner Lots Fifty Per Cent, But That
Did Not PIacate Those Who oppos
ed the Paving = Test Case to be
Tried.
;pecia! to Times Republican

Specia, to Times Republican
Fort Dodge, Nov. 22.-Today
seventeen cases of appeal from the
paving assessment were filed with the
clerk of the district court for
trial at the next term commencing on
January 8, 1906. The people who have
filed the cases represent the wealth.
Ter residents of the residence portion
OF the city on the south paving con-
tract and are u part of the list that
made the strenuous objections before
the city council at the time the as
sessment was made.
In an attempt to conciliate the mat
ter, it will be remembered that the
city council decided to reduce the as
sessments on the corner lots 90 per
cent. This, however, failed to quiet the
dissatisfaction of the residents, and
the appeals We're filed regardless
1t is understood that this number
will be the limit, and that there will
be no more actions brought against
the town on this score, at least from
the people on the south side of Cen
trail avenue. However, when matters
mature on the north paving there may
be additions as the feeling was just
as strong among the residents there
as it was on the south.
AS the cases are practically Identical
in their nature, the trial of one will
probably settle the whole matter one
Way or another The first case will be
really the test case. and the result
will be awaited by all with the utmost
interest. The settlement Will undoubt-
eddy govern the city in Its future pol
icy In the matter of paving assess
ments.
The first case in order Is that of
Silas Corey, ST., and will be holly con-
tested on both sides.

the platform of the Sioux City yard
office and threw off a big buffalo over
coat. Mr.. Hill had been the engineer
of the automobile which brought F. E.

Broughton, general freight agent and
Fred Rogers, of the Willmar and Sioux
lance of ninety-seven miles, in less
than four hours stops included.
This automobile runs as a train and
flies the signals Of an extra. 1t is en-
tirely under the control Of the dis
patcher,. the same as regular and extra
trains. It's small green, red and white
flags, which are carried In box at the
side of the auto when not in use, can
not be seen far, but are easily dis
tinguished by the agents in small
towns when the speeder goes tearing
past their stations. At night the auto
is equipped with signal lanterns and a
strong headlight, just as special

Driven by a gasolene engine, this
auto which weighs less than ton,
will attain almost any desired speed.

to make quick trips and have hereto

cost and sometimes much inconven-
fence. The automobile will do away
with that. They will soon sail over
divisions quicker than a special could

HAwkEYEs coNcEpE DEFEAT.
Give Up All Hope of Defeating Min
nesota on Thanksgiving Day.

Special to Times-n Republican.
Iowa City, Nov. 22.--All hope of de-
feating Minnesota at Cedar Rapids OH
Thanksgiving day has departed from
the minds of the Hawkeyes and the
only question that now worries the
enthusiasts is how high the score will
go. The Varsity returned from. their
defeat at the hands OF Illinois sore and
disheartened, but confident that they
can hold the Gophers toa low score
because of the crippled condition of
Williams men after their severe con-
test with Northwestern.
Report had it yesterday that Mime
sofa would lose four men from the reg
ular lineup thru injuries, and that the
debarring of their captain would make
considerable difference in their scor-
ing ability. Iowa on the contrary is in
no worse condition than it was before
the Illinois game. Despite the fact that
many of the men had to be carried
from the field during that game. none
of them We're seriously injured, but
had to be taken out because of pure
exhaustion under the grueling attack
of the Illini.
