ed in Saturday nights Gate City, by
giving decision without leaving the
bench, in favor of the city OF Fo
Madison.
| Commenting on the decision and
giving brief history of the lit
ton. the Fort Madison Democrat
says:
In giving his decision, Judge Craig
stated that he had began having tht
testimony in this case read to him
last January, and as he progresseI
with the case had made thorough
study of the law in connection there
with; that he had already read prac-
itically all the authorities cited to him
by the attorneys, and that he felt he
could decide the case at this time as
well as though he took it under ad-
visement.
Judge Craig had as much as one
thousand pages Of matter to go
through, being the testimony hereto
fore taken before Judge Bank in this
Case. vi oGIOUSl Sc vuuSS
began hearing evidence in this case,
and with the exception of two days
devoted to another case, the time of
the court has been occupied with this
case, and court attaches feel that it
was completed in record time.
In making his decision Judge Craig
stated that he had gone over the pro-
ceedings of the City council, the reso-
luton of necessity and subsequent
proceedings necessary; that no OBJ
lection was raised on that ground,
and that he felt there were no legal
propositions involved except incl
dentally He stated that as he viewed
it there were but three propositions
involved:
1st The question of special bene-
fits and the assessment of an exces-
sive area. His holding was there
could be no question whatever on that
proposition, and that nnding should
be in favor OF the city.
End. AS to the thickness of the
concrete base: The holding Of the
court was that there was a substan-
tial compliance with the plans and
specifications in this respect.
3rd. AS to the material used: The
court held that under the plans and
specifications and contract the con-
tractor had the right to use gravel
that the use of gravel was approved
by the city council, City Engineer
and paving committee. That under
the testimony the mixture used was
equal to or better than a 1, 8 and 5
mixture using crushed stone.
The ruling of the court is that the
petition of plaintiff be dismissed and
the costs assessed against the plain
tif.

Lengthy Litigation.

The case was started in the fall of
1916, when the plaintiffs objected to
the use of Mississippi river gravel in
THE concrete base upon which the
bricks were laid. The plaintiffs,
claiming that the gravel was dirty
and full of foreign substances, asked
that crushed rock and sand be used
in the base instead
The members of the city council
overruled the objections, and the
people interested in the case prompt
ly took an appeal.
Active trial was started on the case
in 1917. Since that time it has run
through over two years of trial, al
though only thirtyfour days Of actual
trial time was consumed The case
was by far the longest ever tried in
the courts of Lee county.

hustling, but he secured the tabloid

out the weeks program and it proved
unusually attractive, the girls being
pretty as well as good singers and the
costumes suggest the "Follies' in its
palmiest days. The principals sang and
danced well and were rewarded with
prolonged applause.
Lillian Herlein contributes a cycle OF
songs, all of them new and exception
