HIT BY L. E. & w.
William Bowel Receives Injuries
While Trying to Board Train
at Walkerton.

William Bowel of Plymouth,
a brakeman on the Pennsylvania
railroad, was hit by the south
bound passenger train on the l..
E. & w. road at Walkerton, at
5: II O'Clock Tuesday evening at
the crossing near Dare's coal,yard
and received severe, but not seri-
Gus injuries. Bowel was under
the influence of liquor, and it is
not known exactly how the acci-
dent happened, but he may have
attempted to board the train and
received side swipe in some way
that did the business. He claims
that he fell from the train but
this would hardly seem likely
with vestibule coaches.
Bowel received a severe cut
on the head about three inches
long which laid the flesh open
to the skull. His face was
scratched, one arm badly bruised
and one ankle sprained. He was
evidently fortunate in coming out
of the mixup with no worse in
Juries. He was not rendered un-
conscious. He was taken to the
office of DR.. Denaut who dressed
the injuries.

LICENSES ARE
in DEMAND
ABOUT 300 HAVE ALREADY
BEEN ISSUED IN MAR
SHALL COUNTY.
Hunters Show Their Willingness
to Support the Game Laws
by Securing Licenses.

About 800 hunting licenses
have already been issued ait the
county clerks office this season
and it is probable that by the end
of November this number will be
nearly doubled. During October
over 100 licenses were issued and
since that time an average OF
about ten have been given out
each day. One day, thirty-four
were issued, this being the high
est number for a single day of
to date. With the approach OF
the holiday season the applica-
tions are gradually increasing and
it is expected that the climax will
be reached on Thanksgiving day.
Many people secured licenses last
year on that day, and they will
need to have them renewed be-
fore that time this season.
The license costs 81 and is on
ly good Tor one year, but the pos
session of one often saves the
hunter between $50 and $40. the
of the fines imposed for
without license. The
derived from the sale of
the licenses all goes to the salar-
les of the game wardens and 9TH
er expenses incident to the law.
In this way, the offices are al
most, if not entirely, self support
ing.

they are demanding to know
who is going to pay for the ruin
of the county court house, they
are asking who will pay for the
ruined library and the water

condition more desolate, bleak,
dreary and cherries could not

blame

Jacob Ness, who has brought
suit for injunction against o.
Keefe, anl1 the Board of Com

guarantee such damages as
might be incurred. Is it possible
that this bondsman, is fearing for
his cash, and is trying to put the
blame on someone else! Perhaps

Section 63 of the act in question
(SecHion 7712, Burns, 1909 is un-

had refused to enjoin the board

The decision of the court
leaves the township still in pos
session of the assessment law as
a means of road building. Under
this law petition may be filed
with the board of county COM

perty lies within mile of the
road it is proposed to build. The

the commissioners, and the cost

sessments against the land own

CASE SIMILAR
TO COURT HOUSE
INJUNCTION DENIED TO
CONTRACTOR CLAIMING
TO HAVE LOWER BID.
Case at Wabash is Similar to the
Court House Injunction
Case Here.

a case similar to the pending
Court House injunction case, in
Marshall county, has been de-
cided in the Wabash circuit
court.
When Lambert Brothers, al
though the lowest bidders, were
denied the contract for curbing
on South Wabash street in Wa
bash, they brought injunction
proceedings against the Cit Off
cials, tying up the work. Judge
Paulus held, since no fraud was
charged, there could be no in
junction and a city can let con-
tracts to Those not lowest bid
ders.
This is in exact keeping with
the ruling of Special Judge Larry
OF Logansport, who tried the
Court House injunction case here
wherein Contractor Jacob Ness,
sought an injunction against the
Board of Commissioners, and
Arthur O'Keefe, to prevent the
latter from remodeling, the court
house, or receiving pay for the
same, on the grounds that the
bid OF Ness was lower than the
bid OF O'Keefe, who was given
the contract by the commissions
ers. 1t is the general opinion in
Marshall county, that the SUI
preme court will uphold the de-
cision OF Judge Larry.
