DES MOINES, Oct. 4. (Special.) Tho
supremo court Ot iowa today rett-mcu mo
wuinn of JudKO Elkleberger of Ottumwa
In a paving assessment case, which was
to the effect that the "front foot" rule
was Invalid. Judge Prouty rendered an
opinion In several Polk county cases, aub
sequent to thnt ot Judge Elktcborger, hold
ing directly opposite. Each or tno cases
was appealed and tho opinion of tho su
preme court was awaited with much Interest.
Tho opinion of the supreme court ren
dered In the case of Hackwortn against
Ottumwa today, determines the result of
tho Des Moines cases nud prevents the
bringing of many similar suit!) mat de
pended on tho result of those already
brought.
The opinion crcntes little surprise among
Des Moines attorneys. Tho cases weru
based on the Interpretation of tho ruling
of the federal cuurts In the case of Nor
wood against Baker, rendered sovoral
years ago. In thla It was set up that tho
front foot" ruin of assessing pavement
nnd sewers wns Inequitable for tho reason
that by Its nrnvlslona a lot with a fifty-
foot frontage but only ten feet deep would
be assessed as heavily as n lot 100 f?et
having tho name frontage; that It wns un
constitutional for the reason that In
suburban districts where values wcro low
tho charge .'or paving often nmountcd not
only to confiscation of tho propeity, but
rendered It possible to securo a Judgment
against the owner for tho balance of taxes
uopald after selling the property.
In Norwood ngalnst Baker It was held
that the last extrcmo could not bo gono
to. This was Interpreted by some lawyers
to mesu that the "front foot" rule was
Invalid. Contractors declined, In many
cases, to undertake work, fearing they
could not securo pay, at least without a
lawsuit. Judge, Elkleberger hold to tho
former belief and Judgo Prouty Interpreted
tho rase not to Invalidate tho front foot
rule.
Theso decisions were based on the code
of 1897. which specified that the assess
ment hhnuld be apportioned according to
tho frontage The city attorneys secured
the passage of a law during thn leglsla.
turn of 18S9 abrogating the old rule and
declaring that the assessments should bo
apportioned according to the "benefits" ar
crulng to tho property by reason of the
sewer or paving and that In no case should
tho assessment exceed 35 por cent of thn
value of the property as shown by the last
assessment.
This change was nominal only, however.
as the old rule has been used by assessors
and city councils In estimating "benefits'
ever since the passage of the law. The
effect of today's derision will mako no
material chnhge, except to. tause more open
disregard of tho law passed by tho last
legislature. A property bolder who Is
able to show, however, that his assess
ment Is not apportioned according to bene
fits ran fecure relief in the courts, hut
th burdon of proof will bo on him,
The opinion of the Iowa supreme court
Is In line with that of the federal supreme
court rendered last June, In which It wax
held that a wrong consuuctlon bad been
placed on the opinion Norwood against
Baker.
