animously to have timber lands of

The final action came on motion of

tion of the following resolution.
''That IL be the sense Of the COM

of arriving at an equitable assess

Holders Meet
CONTINUES DRAINAGE
Drainage District No. 2 will Raise
Money by Private Means

A meeting OF the property owners
in Drainage District No took place
Satur day night at the offices Of Tay-
lor and Hull attorneys for the dis
triot
Il was decided at the meeting t.
raise money by private mortgages,
bon de, etc., and to go ahead with the
work of building dykes and draining
the oveIflowed lands Ia the district.
Owing to the ruling Of Judge
Dunn in a Bonner county case that
the law under which the drainage
d strlots are formed ls not valid. no
attempt will be made to bond the dis
trlot or for the district as a whole to
raise the money necessary to do the
work. The commissioners OF the
district have teen inst ructed to see
all property owners In the distI lot
and to have them raise he money by
private bonds or mortgages or In some
other method which will not be
affected by Il Q invalidity of the law.
The property owners who met
Saturday night represent nearly five
sIxths Of the acreage Included In the
district, so there will probably be no
oposition to the decision to go ahead
and raise the money and complete
the work on the district.
The work will be completed as
soon as possible aud the district will
be maintained by the money received
from the saleof the private bonds and
mortgages until such a time as the
law regulating the formation Of
drainage districts is made oonstitu.

their father and great uncle.
On the brides side she was found

All this scrambling of relationship

reports of Gen. Huerta tonight di-
rectly accused the Standard Oil
Company of financing the Madero

These accusations were based on
the following dispatch from Mexico
