The supreme court of Ma
braska recently decided a ditch
case, which, owing to it's SINH
larity with our own ditch case,
now in the supreme court, will
'be of interest to the citizens of
Missouri Valley and vicinity.
! The Western Dredging compa-
ny of Omaha had been awarded
II contract for digging a ditch
in Washington county, just
north of Blair, and were to COM
plete the contract by the 18th
of June, 1904. After the time
in which the contract was to be
completed had expired the
board of supervisors of Wash
ington county relet the contract
for doing the work to R. A,
Brown & Co., the firm who re-
Gently appealed our ditch case
to the supreme ecu t. 1t was
sought to enjoin the board of
supervisors from entering into
t. he contract with r. A. Brown
& Co. The Nebraska court
holds that because the Western
Dredging company had not
completed the work by the time
specified in their contract that
they had no further rights and
that the second contract, award
ed to R. A. Brown & Company,
was good.
A peculiar coincidence in this
matter is that in the Iowa case,
now in the supreme court, the
matters are just reversed, the
Western Dredging company be-
ing the second bidders, under
the second contract, and R. A.
Brown & Co., the one who failed
to do the work under the first
contract, so that now the West
ern Dredging company will
have nopportunity to get even
with r. A. Brown & Co. for
taking away their Nebraska
contract. We hope the supreme
court of Iowa will take the same
view of this matter as the Ne
braska court did.

Worth Considering.

L l. those who wish to retire
from business, the farm or any
If the avocations of life, Mis-
souri, Valley, of all cities of the
country offers greater advan-
tages than any other.
Its schools are unexcelled and
are noted for their thorough
ness and growing efficiency
throughout the entire western
part of the state. In Churches
there are ten different societies,
all of them in a healthy, grow
ing condition. The city is sup
piled with water from its own
plant, which for it's excellency
and purity is unsurpassed No
city is better lighted, and none
so free from lawlessness and
crime.
Its magnificent water supply,
together with the electric fire.
alarm system, and its paid fire
department, makes fires almost
impossible, and insurance COM
paratively low. The city is UNI
usually healthy, owing to its
high l.cation; and its hillsmake
beautiful sites OH whith to build
homes. From the tops Of these
hills one can overlook the vall=
eys which join them, rich with
natures bounteous harvests.
OF the different cities of the
county, the following are the
tax levies each, for the year of
1904:
Dunlap. "a mills
Logan, DISBURSEMENT. Sc mills
Woodbine. ...... 6S mills
Missouri Valley !. 60 mills
Soft can be seen that Missou-
ri Valley, with her magnificent
schools, with text books free,
her many churches, her brill
iantly lighted and we'll kept
streets, her ample supply of
good water, her miles of cement
sidewalks, and her splendid fire
protection, her grand location
with her low taxes, all offer
greater inducements than any
other city in this part of the
state in which to locate and
build up permanent home.

Gentlemen We, the under.

fully request this honorable
body to locate a number of in

on Ninth street which is
crossed by the railroad tracks
of the Chicago & Northwestern

We make this request for the
reason that the light at that

place is dangerous.

The following communication
was received from Geo. Dim

Missouri Valley, Iowa, Dec.
%, 1905. To the Mayor and
City Council, Missouri Valley,
Iowa. Dear Sirs:: On Deem
Der 24th, 1905, about 4 o'clock
p. M, wanted to cross Ninth
street crossing, over the C. &
N. w. R. r. tracks, with a team
and buggy. ! did not see any
Waterman at said crossing until.
l had driven my team upon the
track, when he jumped out
from somewhere, in front of
the team. | could not stop the
team and it ran away with me.
| think the switch engine
was throwing a car on to the
track | was crossing, and | do
not think the car missed nv
buggy more than two to four
feet. | think your honorable
body should take some such
action as will better protect
property and persons Of those
compelled to cross the railroad
tracks at this point, as several
persons have narrowly escaped
at this point, the prin-
elpal trouble being in the fact
that box cars thrown on to the|
elevator tracks are permitted
to stand so close to the roadway
that it is almost impossible for
anyone to cross said tracks
more or less danger of
getting either killed outright |
Or badly injured, and | earnest
y advise that your honorable
oody take this matter up with
The railroad officials at once,
before some one is killed.
Yours Respectfully,
George Dimmick.
After considerable discussion
his matter was referred to the
:ity attorney and he is instruct
ed to proceed with the railroad
in such a manner as
% insist upon the placing of
gates or some other safeguard
At this crossing.
