TO $4,000, 100000 IN QUESTION
IN SWIFT COUNTY DISPUTE.
WHOLE STATE INTERESTED.

Drainage bonds issued by Mime
sofa counties to the amount of $685.
100000 are affected by a suit started
in federal court, to determine the
priority of ditch liens over real estate
mortgages.
The action is brought by the Old
Colony Life Insurance company of
Chicago against officials of Swift
county. The company asks to have
the ditch lien on a tract of land can
pany's mortgage on the land. 1t is
set up that the company, with its in
terest as mortgage, received no no
tice of the drainage project or the as
sessment,. and the company claims
therefore that it has been deprived of
its property without due process OF
law.
The insurance company, with an
equity of about $1,000, has foreclosed
mortgage on a quarter section of
land, but finds it encountered with a,
ditch lien for about the same amount.
The land under present conditions
will bring little more than the amount
of the lien or the mortgage, and will
not cover both. There are many such
cases.
Attorney General Clifford L. Hilton,
realizing the Importance of the case,
has detailed Victor Anderson of his
staff to assist in defending the action.
If the insurance company should win,
the mortgage would have to be salts
fed, and it would be up to the coun-
ties in many instances to meet tSs
bond issue requirements out of taxa
ton. With much of the land unable to
meet tax payments, the burden on
other property would be heavy.
Minnesota's drainage law does not
provide for any notice to mortgages,
and the state authorities claim that
this would be impractical, as mort
cages change hands so frequently The
system is general over the country,
and it is understood that similar ac-
lions are being brought in several
states, all headed for the United
States Supreme Court.
