Pierce MAY EXPAND.

PIERCE, Neb., April 3O--(Special.)-
recent sitting of district court Judge
Boyd decided one case that was of great
Importance to the city. For several years
the city council has been trying to annex
territory on the northeast, containing the
mill property, and territory on the south
west which is residence property. The
owners have contended that they should
not be forced to come into the city limits
because they were not deriving any bene-
Ats from the city. In their petition they
set up that they were so far out that in
case of FIRE they could not receive any
benefits from the fire company or the
hydrants. The fire company offered to
make trial and Judge Boyd ordered tnat
It be made. The company made the at
tempt and proved to the satisfaction of
the judge that they could get to the mill
in short order and were able to fight a
fire successfully. The Judge complimented
the boys on the good showing made and
said we had a good system of water
works. He decided that all the property
should be taken into the town except
the extreme southwest portion, which he
thought was a little too far out to be an
nexed at the present time.
