COUNTY COURT HAS AUTHORITY TO ESTABLISH DISTRICT WITH
 OUT FILING SECOND PETITION.
SUPREME COURT so DECIDES
I Taxpayer of Lonoke County Attacked Validity of Bayou Meto Drainage District No. of Lonoke County
 and Assessments Levied.
Little Rock.


 Tom Jones, a taxpayer of Lonoke county, attacked the validity of the organization of Bayou Meto Drainage District, No 1, of Lonoke county, and also the assessments levied. The prin- cipal grounds of his attack were that the order of the County Court estab. fishing the district was void because no second petition for the district was hled and because the order of the court establishing the district exclud- ed three sections of land which were embraced in the original petition
 The Supreme Court said: "The statute gives the County Court the aa- thority to establish the district with ou the filing of the second petition, if, after an investigation made subsequent to the report of the engineer, it finds that the district will be advantageous to the owners of property affected
 The court is also allowed to add other lands which may be benefited, and from this the construction fol lows that the final boundaries of the district are to be determined by the County Court, and that it had the power to leave out the three sections In question, if found not to be bene- ftted. Another ground of attack was that the costs would exceed the bene- fits, which contention was based on the inclusion of interest on the bonds of the district, but the Supreme Court has already held that interest musr be excluded from the original cost Of the improvement"
 The court held that the attacks on the validity of the district were un- founded and affirmed the decree.
