A Reminder of Incompetency
About the largest crowd of deter-
mined men that lias met at the court^
house tills year is the crbwd of Dry
t-reek lax payers in drainage district
No. 2 that met at the otlice of the
county commissioners last Monday
to protest against the digging of the
ditch under the plans and estimates
as made and published by the view-
ers. It. appeals that when the Dry
creek people signed the petition to
establish the ditch, it was under the
government estimate of $14,000 lor
the ditch and included but very little
entirely new channel.
The estimate as published by the
viewers is $105,392.50 and many of
the farmers regard this us confisca-
tion.
The opposition was led jhy Philip
E. Mann a land owner ,and an at-
torney who has had 15 years ex-
perience as a drainage man.

and the orders of the Hoard of com-

Committee.
In the afternoon the petition was
presented and the question of ac-
crued costs amounting to $2,600
arose and was discussed. The rati
road attorneys present were quizzed
and stated that they thought the
rail roads would be willing to pay
their proportional pad.
The publication notice was by
many believed to contain two fatal
errors. There were some errors in
assessments and Sunday the 22nd
j instead of Monday, 23rd was named
| in the publication as the day of
j meeting. An order was therefore
