I BADLY
THIS YEAR S LEVY-
ACTION MIST THE COUNTY
Has Been Started as Result ef an Old
Ditch Case—Caused by a Non
Settlement.
Another phase of the trouble which
has been caused by the non-settlement
of the celebrated Ditch No. 48 contract
was brought out yesterday when an'
action was started against the county
by the State bank of St. Hilaire which
will endeavor to collect through the
courts the sum of $980.77, which they
claim in due 'them for work on the
ditch. They have an assignment of
the contract from Larson and Ander
son, the contractors.
This is the case in which W. E.
Black purchased the claims of several
laborers and brought suit against his
attorney, W. EL Howe, to recover the
money from the county. He claimed
that as the county bad taken a de
fective bond from the contractors, that
the laborers who worked on the ditch
and who did not receive their pay
from the contractors could recover
from the county and his claim was
sustained by the courts. Now the
State bank of Hilaire brings a suit to
compel the county to pay them the
full amount of the money that Is still
coming to Larson and Anderson for
digging the ditch. The county claim,
however, that they should first pay the
laborers out of this amount that is
owing to Larson and Anderson, and
that after the laborers are paid, then
the bank should have the remainder.
The case will be up at the winter term
of court.

loads of bouquets at himself in refer
ence to a supposed discovery concern
ing the sewer assessments on Sixth
street between DeMers and Kittson
avenues. Had he been assured of
some one following him and exposing
the truth he would in all probability
have remained out of print—badly as
he dislikes to do so. The facts con
cerning that business is that the con
tract was let for the same on Nov. 8,
1905 and the work was finished on
Dec. IS, 1905, and paid for so far as
Contractor Mcliraith was concerned
on the following day. Now, sewer
assessments must be included in the
levy which is made following the time
mentioned, and the law requires that
the sewer commission shall report on
the same on or before the first day of
October. It can thus be seen that the
sewer assessment which the sharp
eyes of the city recorder saw—it is a
good place to laugh- was turned ove.
to the Incoming administration which
is the present one, as unfinished busi
ness. It was the duty of the recorder
to see that the commission was ap
pointed and the levy for the same
made at the time the levy for current
expenses was.made this year. Instead
of detecting ah error or even an over
sight In the last administration he has
merely showed that he himself either
did not know his duty or neglected
or forgot t, and that hlB rush into
print was merely for the purpose of
hiding his owfc negligence. His record
breaking record in this matter Is
something like the one he made in the
collection of electric light bills a few
months ago which had accumulated
during the time he was looking after
a saloon in the absence of the proprie
tor during the latter's absence and for
which time the city was paying his
salary. The perfume of that wonder
ful bunch ot self-thrown bouquets
smells more like rotten cabbage since
the truth is known.

tion.
The case of the state vs. John Dan
cel, charged with excavating a public
highway, scheduled to come up in mu
nicipal court today has been continu
ed Indefinitely on account of the fail
ure of certain records to arrive from
Crookston. The only point Involved
is the ownership of the property at the
end of the bridge, which is claimed
by both James Jarvis and the city.
Dancel was employed by Jarvis, and,
it will be remembered, was engaged
in tearing up the approach of the old
point bridge when arrested.

The funeral of Ben Guy, the Crook

FOR ITS SAFE KEEPING
Says Cash Was Given to Him
—Cannot Furnish the
Bonds.
Prank Rinnert was bound over to
the grand jury this morning on a
charge of grand larceny, it being
charged that he stole a sum of $135
from Ernest Hertner, recently of Can
ada. The robbery, it is claimed, took
place Tuesday morning, in a local sa
loon. Rinnert was a rested shortly
after. On the stand today, he claimed
that Hertner had given him the mon
ey for safe-keeping. He was placed
under $1,000 bonds, which he is una
