NEW DISTRICT EXTENDS FROM Nj.
& ST. L. TO BLYTH BRIDGE.

Petition has been filed with the
Board OF Supervisors Of Mahaska Co.
asking for the establishing of another
drainage district along south Skunk
River extending from the end of the
work terminating at the M & st. L.
railway bridge to a point near the
Blyth Bridge on the II. Fl. Sheriff
farm, distance of between five or
six miles.
Said petition duly filed with rcquii.
ed bond has been accepted by the
beard and r. l.. Black appointed ensl.
neer to expert the job and make the
preliminary survey.
Those signing the petition are T u.
Hale, Henry De Bocf, f. L. Anderson,
X c. and Louis Roberts and j. c.
VI hitmore.
This new drainage district for
Skunk River starts where the work
now under way terminates, at the NJ.
& ST. L. railway bridge and extends
toward the southeast to point about
three miles above the Cogrier Mills
bridge.
Work on the preliminary survey
will be started as soon rs the neees-
sary preparations can be completed.
One of the possibilities of the i'm
proyement will be the elimination OF
the Glendale bridge as a great loop
will be taken ont at this point and the
course of the stream materially
Strengthened
In so far as possible the "old bed
OF the river will be followed and il is
not anticipated that the excavation
necessary to straighten the stream
will be excessive.
Mahaska County is at no expense in
connection with the investigation nor
THE preliminary or temporary survey.
! III the report OF the engineer is I'M
favorable and the county board does
not grant the petition, the expense of
all preliminary work is guaranteed by
the petitioners in the bond filed. They
pay all bills and stand all expense.
Should the report of the engineers
make the proposition tenable. then
the expense of the preliminary work.
together with the cost of the work II.
self will be assessed proportionately
to the property of the district benefit,
led by the drainage.

NO VOTE ON RATES
"HOT TIME" HAD AT COUNCIL
MEETING LAST NIGHT.

Introduction OF an innocent little
resolution in the city council session
OF Monday evening started the fire
works and set loose a storm of pro-
test that found expression through
the more or less vehement pronun-
citation of Attorney Thomas Bray OF
the Citizens Protective League, and
in the cheers and jeers, groans and
Kisses on the part of the big audi
ence. Every seat was occupied.
Council members were in commit
tee room caucus early in the evening
and the call to order was delayed be-
yond the usual hour. Anticipating
argument when the public service
rates ordinances might be brought
forth the council decided to clear the
deck" for action and proceeded to
complete the usual first of the month
detail before calling for the weightier
matters of the evening.
Excitement was increasing and ev-
licences of temper had been exhibited
in the course of the deliberations
Mayor Harold several times pounded
for order when the meeting came to
sudden and unlocked for termina-
ton. Councilman l.. NJ. Fansher and
his brother, who was in the audience
were called aside and informed that
their father was dying. They left
Immediately for the bedside
AS mark of respect and sympathy
for their fellow councilman, the body
upon motion of Colonel ]. II. Pickett,
adjourned, subject to the call of the
mayor.
While some dissatisfaction was
manifest in remarks on the part of
some in the audience, the crowd was
generally orderly and withdrew in a
quiet, respectful manner.
The resolution that precipitated the
argument was offered by Councilman
Il. T. Penders and was as follows:
