’ " !NTO THE DITCH 1 (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) i Chiving livery stable of Celina Ohio. It had Its top' badly broken up and i the upper gear was damaged to some extent. The machine was to shape to t run under its own power and this morning a local chauffuer drove the' { car home taking Krieg**! along. Dr. Earl Coverdale, attending Mr. Goldbloc\, said that his condition while serious need not necessarily be fatal, as no bones were broken and there ' Is little evidence of internal injuries. He was badly bruised however. I — ' ' AGAINST MORGAN r , (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONEi is the opinion of this court that the ■ drain should have been constructed ' according to the original plans and specifications, unless the said plans i and specifications were ordered changed by the court. That the con- , tractor should have satisfied himself as to the amount of work to be constructed under his contract before submitting his bid therefor, and that ( after entering into said contract of construction he assumed the risk of performing all labor necessary to complete the contract according to the 1 plans and specifications. The evidence shows that the contractor is still engaged in the construction of the drain I under his contract. The court does not think it would be a good policy to order a re-survey and permit this petitioner to construct the work under his present contract without reletting same. It would be immuterial to the contractor it the drain as ordered constructed would drain the land for which it was intended or not; his only obligation would be to construct the drain according to the plans and specifications. It seems to the court that if relief is granted as prayed for, it would open the door for contractors to underbid their competitors and after accepting the work and entering into the contract therefor, and if they concluded the same would not be a " profitable contract, they could stand by anp see or assist some person who had no authority, to change the subject of their contract, and after proceeding thereon, to petition the court to cause the proceedings leading up to such contract to be opened up and allow them to still retain their contract. There has been no evidence showing that any one who has any of the burdens to bear for the construction of such drain has complained or has any complaint to make, but the petition is solely on the part of the contractor, who voluntarily placed himself in the position he now is. The finding and judgment of the court will bo against the petitioner that he take nothing by his petition. Judgment against petitioner for costs.” o TAGGART HOME FOR A DAY. Indianapolis, Ind., April 13 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —Senator Thomas Taggart came to Indianapolis Tuesday, going to French Lick in the evening. He was accompanied by Mrs. Taggart. The senator will return to Washington at once, being in Indianapolis about April 23 to remain until after the state convention.
