0. 5. |. HAS TRIED
NEARLY z YEARS

Another instance of the "lost mo-
ton" in city affairs under the system,
at present obtaining came to light
this week in the matter of the de-
sire of the Oregon Short Line to pay
some special taxes.
The road wrote on July S, 1911, to
the county assessor asking that he
advise them of the amount due for
pavement or sewer assessment on the
portion of city lot No. ITO in their
right-of-way. The assessor phoned
the city clerk who said the matter
would nave to come up before the
council. AS far as the office of the
assessor is concerned. they claim
that they have phoned slime and
time again" and have never been able
to ct any satisfaction until they are
discouraged.
When seen by a representative Of
The Tribune, Mayor Grifiths de-
clared that the matter had come W
before the council and that the city
clerk had been directed to gather the
information and confer with the as
SCISSOR that the matter. could BIZ
Strengthened out.
City Clerk Shorb on the other hand
declares that he has never before
heard of the matter in any way. The
record of the council proceedings
show no mention of the affair and
sufficient moss has accumulated to
wipe the slate of memory clean--but
still the Short Line wants informa-
ton.
Another Water Nix Up.

the Office Of the city clerk to con-
tribute his dollar. Upon obtaining .
receipt he was blandly informed that
he twas in arrears to the extent of
70 cents. DR.. Smith was somewhat
surprised, but asked to see the books,
as he was from Missouri or there
abouts. The books showed that he
was charged with $l.30 for November
and had paid but 500: in December
ne was charged with $l.@O and had
paid 500. He declared that he had
receipts and would examine them.
Upon such examination he found that
he had paid and had proper receipt
for payment of $40 in December,
though credited with only $1.W
After the surrender of this receipt to
the chairman Of the water committee

had paid $40 and 80 ne changed

STRENUOUS LEGAL
BATTLE
Damage Case of Charles Yer.
heyne v. Nampa- Meridian
District and Z. Il. Dewey
AWARD $8315.4O DAMAGES
Plaintiff Sued for $3S. 100000 for Dam
ages Sustained by Orchard on Ac-
count Of Seepage-Occupies Atten-
ton Of Court for Over q Week-Re-
suit of Case may Be Far Reaching.

After one of the most strenuous le-
gal battles in Canyon county in re-
GENT years the case of Charles Yer
heyne versus the Nampa-Meridian IT.
rigation district and E. H. Dewey
was disposed of in the district court
Monday night when the jury brought
in a verdict tor the plaintiff for dam
ages in the amount of $83l5.4O. The
claim in the complaint was for $4,000
on account of damages alleged to have
come to the plaintiff because of the
diversion of waters from the Riden-
baugh canal into Mason creek and
Lake Ethel, reservoir in the north
ern part of the city of Nampa. As a
result of this it was claimed that
floods and seepage water came to the
lands of the defendant causing the
damages.
The plaintiff was represented by the
law firm of Grifiths & Griffiths of this
city, while R. B. Scatterday of Cald-
we'll, H. E. McElroy of Boise and D.
Worth Clark of Pocatello represented
the defense.
The result in the case as discussed
by various men prominent in irriga-
ton affairs and farmers who have had
difficulty in matters pertaining to
drainage problems, establishes a very
significant status and is of far reach
ing effect in irrigation districts.
The array of witnesses, experts and
otherwise, brought out every phase oi
the effect of food water upon orchard
trees and land conditions and has beer
admitted a. haiur the v,10cf Avl =, =; W

problems of drainage and effects o.

brought out in this county.
The case occupied the most of tn
past week including three night ses
sions of the court. The jury was Civ.
en- the case at about J o'clock Monda,
night and their verdict awarding thu
damages mentioned was rendered
about midnight.

FIRE DAMAGES
LOCAL CHURCH
Mendenhall Presbyterian
Structure Badly Burned
Over heated Pipe caa~e

Fire yesterday morniRg badly dam
aged the interior Of the Mendenhall
Memorial Presbyterian church build
ing, located ON South Third street. An
excessively heated hot air pipe, it is
believed, was the cause of the fire.
The blaze was discovered about
10:l5 o'clock, just shortly before, the
morning services were scheduled to
open. Only the prompt work of the
fire department saved the building
from total destruction.
The damage, it is estimated, will
amount to nearly $4,000. This is en-
tirely covered by insurance.
The fire started in the furnace room
in the basement and burned through
to the main auditorium. The Interior
of the hall of the church. was badly
burned, and will have to undergo con-
siderable rebuilding. The floor of the
main auditorium will have to be en-
tirely rebuilt, and the walls and cell
ing will have to be almost entirely re-
plasterei. With the exception Of q
couple Of pews, the furniture In the
church was not damaged by the fire.
Water did considerable damage, how
ever. and it will be necessary to re-
varnish all the furniture.
The fire caused an abandonment of
all special Christmas services, which
were to have been given yesterday.
The annual Sunday school entertain
ment was scheduled for Wednesday
night, but 1t also has been necessary
to abandon It. Instead, the children
will be entertained in the Commercial
club rooms Friday afternoon.
A special meeting Of the session will
be held tonight, when plans will be
made. for future services.
