Huston and H. T. Bagley, attorneys for Mr. Ber nards, that the law on which the district was organized was un constitutional on the grounds that proper notice of organiza tion, etc., i3 not provided. The Court held that under Supreme Court decisions the organization of the district is legal, and that the assessment will be a lien against property within the scope of the district lires. The opinion decides the validity of the district, and further litiga tion may follow. The case will doubtless go to the Supreme Court. E. B. and Thos.
