Several reasons why the injunction
should be dissolved are set forth In the
motion The principal ones are that
the injunction was granted without no.
tice, contrary to law. in case which
the defendant had answered; that the
showing made did not warrant an IN
junction; and that the petition fails to
show cause of action, and there Is now,
and was pending demurrer which
challenged a legal sufficiency of the
petition.
General demurrers were also filed
Friday evening in the other dam cases.
In the case of the intervenor, the state
of Iowa, thru Attorney General c. W

forth that the intervenor was not en-
titled to the relief demanded in the pc

same is claimed in demurrer in the

Local Comment

When Governor Cummins looks over
his election returns he can give the
banner to Marshall county and. incl
dentally. to several hundred Marshall
county independent democrats Mar
shall Is the only county in the state
which shows an increased vote for
Cummins oyer his vote Of 1908, and
decreased vote for his democratic
opponent at the same time. Several
counties show an increased Cummins
vote, but an increased democratic vote
too. None can show a larger gain for
Cummins and not one shows gain at
the expense of the democratic opposi-
ton. There were independents by the
thousands all over Iowa who voted for
Cummins, but Marshall county Is the
only county in which one can find
them in the election returns.
Judge Burnham has found by this
time that his friends were his liabili-
ties. Judge Bradshaw should acquire
wisdom from the electio. returns.

THE VALUE OF CHARCOAL.

THE TAX DELlNouENTs.
List Is Longer by one-Fourth Than
TLa4 az laek Near u

That>of Last Year.
The list of those delinquent on their
taxes for the year 1905 and previous
years appears on the fifth page of this
issue of the Times-Republican The
list is larger than last year, when the
number of properties advertised for
sale because, of failure to pay the taxes
was 453. This year the list contains
5s1 descriptions. The list is made
somewhat larger by the failure OF
property owners to pay special paving
and sidewalk taxes.
In the list this year is advertised
property for sale because of the fail
ure to pay the special tax assessed for
the purpose Of defraying the expense
of the construction of drainage ditch.
The law permitting this assessment is
comparatively new, and last year there
were no delinquencies, but one ditch
having been constructed.
