SMALL COURT DOCKET
Court Will Convene March 20 at Fort
Dodse-city Made Defendant in
Seventeen Cases Brought by Tax
Payers Because of Paving Assess
ments
Special to Times-Republican.

mCnCSs
Special to Times Republican.
Fort Dodge, Feb. 16.-Court will be-
gin here on March Goth. with Judge
Whitaker presiding. So far there have
been but few cases filed, but 1T IS
likely that those in which the city is
made defendant and seventeen differ
ent taxpayers are plaintiffs, because of
These cases were docketed for the
january term, but We're not taken up
as the attorneys in the actions had
not yet completed their work and We're
not prepared. A great deal of interest
centers about these cases. as they are
of test nature, and will doubtless be
carried to the supreme court, regard
less of the lower courts decision4
In the petitions filed by the plaintiffs
several strong allegations are made.
the chief one of which is that when
the city let the contracts to the Bar
Der Asphalt Paving Company for the
paving that was done here, those bids
were so made that no other company
but the Barber Company could bid,
the specifications calling for Bermudez
or Trinidad asphalt. 1t is asserted
that the Barber company has the
monopoly of the kinds specified AMI
thus all other bidders kept out.
Another case I'M which considerable
interest is manifested is that of Frank
Brown VS.. Maurice WEIGH. 1t grows
out of an accident occurring last Hall
lowe'en, when Maurice Welch was on
the police force. Young Brown was
with q company of friends and in the
way of Halloween FRANKS was paint
ing soap signs on the windows. He
was seen by this policeman and told
to get down from box on which he
was standing. This, the policeman
said he refused to do and so Welch
kicked the box from under Brown, pre-
ciptatng him to the pavement and,
the plaintiff alleges, caused him to
break an arm. 1t is stated further
that after this accident WEIGH. instead
of helping young Brown, deliberately
cursed him. All of the allegations are
denied by WEIGH. Damage in the sum
of 5000 is asked by the plaintiff.

TEST SOLDIERS LAW.
WapeIIo County May Bring Suit to
Test Its Validity.

| Special to TlmeSRepubllcan
Ottumwa, Feb 16.-Mandamus pro-
ceedings to compel the Wapello coun-
| ty board of supervisors to appoint an
| old soldier in the position of overseer
7 IF the poor. now held by c. A. Hyatt,
!, will probably soon be instituted in the
district court
Incidentally the proceedings will
form test for the validity and con-
stitutionality of the soldiers prefer
ence law passed by the thirtieth gener-
| al assembly.
| Henry Wagers and M. S. Kelsie,
both old soldiers, were applicants be-
| fore the board for the position of over
seer of the poor. c. A. Hyatt, the
holder of the office for several years
past, was reappointed for the ensuing
year.
Direct Violation.
The action of the board in making
this appointment was declared by both
Mr.. Wagers and Mr.. Kelsie as being a
direct violation of the law passed by
the last assembly. This law in short
is to the effect that qualifications for
office being equal, the old soldier, if an
applicant, shall receive the appoint
ment in preference to the man who has
not served his country as a soldier.
Demand Hyatt's Removal.
Kelsie and Wagers filed a joint com
munication with the board demanding
that Hyatt be removed from the office
and that one or the other of them be
given the place in compliance with the
provisions of the law The demand
was considered by the board on Satur-
day and no action was taken on the
matter. 1t is stated that no action is
likely to be taken on the demand on
the ground that the board has made
the appointment which it saw fit to
make and which was considered to the
best interests of the office.

RHODES
Feb l3.-The Times-R Republican has
received many compliments and much
praise i'm and about Rhodes as the re-
suit OF the account 1t published about
the Milwaukee wreck. The Des Moines
papers stretched the truth so much
and gave Melbourne all the credit of
help and they never even knew there
had been a wreck until people from
Rhodes walked over and called up the
agent as they have no night operator
there.
"Charity covereth a multitude of
sins could apply, we hope, at no more
BETTING time than last Thursday NOR
ming, when the news was heralded that
a fright wreck had taken place short
distance east of town. The populace
rallied force, and all who were noti-
fled responded Immediately and this,
with no thought save rendering; help
unto suffering humanity. Not only
men, but women, went to the scene.
Our sister towns are prone to sneer at
the good in Rhodes, but we claim re-
demption under the foregoing acts.
Not only at the scene of the wreck
was aid rendered, but consideration of
provision and attendance following re-
ceived thought.
