ROAD LAW HELD VALID
BY THE SUPREME COURT

Validity of the Hazen-LaGrue-S lo-
yak Road District in Prairie county
created under Act No. LOT of the 1919
General Assembly, was upheld Mon
day morning by the Supreme Court,
in an opinion handed down by Chief
Justice MCCULLOUGH, in the appeal Of
I. t. Vietz, property owner, from
an adverse decision of the Prairie
Chaneery Court on his attack.
The general grounds of attack fol-
lowed those in previous cases in which
districts have been held valid, and
the Supreme Court found nothing t.
invalidate the Hazen district, either in
the law creating it, or in the assess
ment of benefits made by the commits
sioners, which it had been charged
were unlawful and unfair.
