A NEW POINT OF LAW.
Raised by Attorney c. w. Bingham in
Assessment Case.

Special 10 1lIueS-RepuOilCaI1.
Cedar Rapids. April 25.-C. w. Bing-
ham raised new point OF law before
Judge Preston in the district court Sat
urday in the case of Leonard VS.. town
of Kenwood Park. Mr.. Leonard owns
% acres in the original town. just west
of the town lots and he brought action
against the town to enjoin it from coll
lecting town taxes on this land
The point raised by Mr.. Bingham
In behalf OF kenwood was that the
law exempting ten acres or more Of
farm lands from city taxes does not
apply to farm lands included in the
original town, but only applies to
lands taken into the town by enlarge
ing the town limits Judge Preston
sustained the point and dismissed
plaintiffs petition. This point had
never been raised in this county be-
fore as 1t was always taken for granted
the law exempted all tracts of ten
acres or more of agricultural land
no matter If they We're in the original
town or taken In afterwards. This
ruling, If sustained, will make great
difference in taxation on some pieces
of property in Cedar Rapids.

Great Damage E,eing Wrought by the

Etnyre, Chief oil Police Richmond, Ed

Narrows to investigate the damage be-

The concensus Of opinion was that
the immediate danger to the Centrars

great as had been feared. The eddy of
the river has been checked by the un-
firing efforts of the railroad workmen.
and unless the liver rises great deal

About 100 lAhorers are working to

bank There the trees are let down
over the edge and anchored with ca
bles ropes and bags of sand. The
trees left with their branches uncut
break and retard the current which
strikes them at an angle from the
northwest thus depriving the water OF
its destructive power.
Water Forty Feet Deep.
A portion of the old bank about $50
Yards long and half as wide has been
wiped off the map, and next to this
shore the swirling water is forty feet
deep. Eddies and whirlpools are FORM
ing constantly In the stream and 1t Is
almost impossible at times to tell In
which direction 1t is flowing. The por>
ton of the bank which was washed
away was protected by riprap, but this
melted away before the muddy water
which. brings little but trouble.
The space between the bank OF the
river and the Illinois Central railroad
tracks now measures about 500 feet.
The present means of checking the
washout is considered adequate. how
ever. until a more pressing need makes
itself felt. 1t has been suggested that
the Douglas county, Nebraska, officials
might be held liable for the damage on
this side, since the charge in the cur

About this time the supposed dead

All the difficulty was caused by the
fact that the dead man had in a pocket
