' ; . I
Bitterly Contested Case No W
Taken Under Advisement
By County Court
The county court ha3 taken the
matter of the Salem drainage dis
trict under advisement. The dif
ficulty of forming an estimate of
the actual cost of the project is
due to the large number of broken
tracts comprising the proposed dis
trict, and the matter is further
complicated-by the fact that some
of the land under consideration
lies outside of the district, al
though it Is Indicated on the chart
as belonging within the area of
the drainage district. j -
One argument In favor of the
project was" made by Mayor Giesy.
He stated that on account of the
overflow, sanitary conditions in a
part of . the northeast .territory
were not of the best. Mr. Giesy
believes, too. that the high water
has-retarded development in that
section. 1 : f ;
The case has occupied the at
tention ot the county court for
about three days, and the two
opposing factions have fought bit
terly. Whether a settlement will
eventually be reached is not cer
