THE WAKARUSA KNOCKED CLEAR OUT.

Monticello Herald. On a complaint of Mrs. A. K. Sills to enjoin the construction of the Wakarusa ditch, Judge Reynolds holds that the Timmons law is vitally defective and that proceedings under it, at least in joint ditehes involving two counties, are void. This is the final knock-out-blow to the Wakarusa ditch, and $7,000 to SII,OOO costs are left for Jasper and White counties to settle as best they can.
