NEW FIGHT ON HIGHLAND PARK ANNEXATION PLAN A new fight is to be made by tax-- payers of H'hvood and Highland Park in an effort to knock out the an-- nexation project of Highland Park. Bome time ago attorneys for the tax payers fAled a petition to enjoin the City of Highland Park from assessing them and taking them into the City of Highland Park. This action came to naught however, when the courts dismissed the petition and suggested that relief for the objectors lay in dif-- ferent kind of proceedings. Acting on this suggestion Attorney E. V. Orvis representing the objectors filed notice with the city officials .of Highland Park that hs is going to ask leave to file quo warranto proceedings against them and the county officers, includ-- ing the county treasurer and the coun-- ty clerk, who have charge of the spreading and collecting of assess-- ments and taxes. The objectors bill of complaint states that they were nmever notified to vote on the propo-- sition of whether they wanted to be annexed or not but that they were as sessed without having any say in the matter and therefore, it amounts to the same thing as a fraud upon the taxpayers. Most of the property in-- volved lies west and north of High-- wood and therefore the objectors claim that if Higbland Park is permit-- ted to annex this property it will pre vent the future growth of Highwood. If the objectors are permitted to file the quo warranto proceedings the vil-- lage officials will be required to show upon what authority they took the an-- nexation action. -------------- e Attorney for Objector Files No-- tice AYM City Officials on New Action.

Weimer motored out from the city with Claud McQueen Saturday. -- One day last week Mr. Ofenbeck, of Long Grove, decided to have a large stump removed, as it was very near the house, h¢e feared to have it blasted out by dyrg.lmite, but Mr. His-- ler assured him there would be ~no danger. S6 he guaranteed the job without any damage and proceeded with the work. He first wound a log chain around the stump to prevent pieces from scattering around, then set it off with a goodly amount of d4ynamite. The stump went about 30 feet in the air and came down on top of the house, through the roof and to the first floor. 'Tis said it would have gone all the way to the basement, only for a partition being in the way. For-- tunately no oni was hurt. The stump was a large one weighing about & ton.
