Practically a Daily at the Price Of

There has never been a time

The Presidential contest also will
soon be at hand. AIreat y candi-

Suit Against Drainage District

Through her attorneys, Henderson
& Caine and Carey Van Fleet of Elko,
suit was instituted in the District
Court Yesterday morning by Elizabeth
A. Rodgers. executrix Of the estate of
Arthur Rodgers, deceased, against the
Lovelock Valley Drainage District and
John G. Taylor. W. G. Pitt and John
FAINT, the board of supervisors of the
drainage district.
The complaint, which is lengthy
document, attacks the validity of the
organization of the drainage district
on the ground that jurisdictional steps
were not taken with regard to notice.
The assessment made by the board OF
supervisors is attacked on the ground
that it is arbitrary and tracts of land
were not assessed according to the
benefits to be derived from the drain
age project. The tax rate levied by
the county commissioners, based on
the assessment made by the board of
supervisors, is attacked as is also the
eonstitutionality of the law providing
for the organization Of drainage dis
tricts.
The plaintiff asks for an injunction
restraining the officers from collect
ING the tax imposed and the officers of
the district from going on her land for
any purpose.
