The objections filed by the appellant in the trial court relate to no other subjects, except that one of such objections questioned the amount of costs that might be assessed against objector\u2019s property by reason of the fact that in the published notice certain of appellant\u2019s real estate was listed under several collectors\u2019 warrants instead of being grouped together, as the objector contended was required. This raised a question of substance, which was tried on its merits in the lower court. The appellant prevailed on his contention that costs should not be charged against his real estate, and no cross-error has been assigned on that ruling.\nNo issue was made in the trial court and none argued here by the appellant that his various parcels of real estate are not subject to the delinquent special assessments and interest claimed thereon. On the date of the hearing he appeared generally and by his attorneys filed an amendment to his objections without in either instance limiting his appearance in any manner. The record fails to show that the appellant at any stage of the proceedings stated or indicated that his appearance was other than general., His attorneys introduced proof and argued the case on his behalf. It is therefore clear that under the prior decisions of this court the appellant by submitting himself to the jurisdiction of the court and going to trial on the merits waived all questions relating to alleged defects in the publication notice containing the delinquent list, notice of application for judgment, the contents of and manner of publication thereof, the certificate of the publisher, or whether the newspaper was a proper statutory medium in which such notice might lawfully be published. People v. Alton and Eastern Railroad Co. 359 Ill. 440; People v. Jones, 333 id. 382; People v. Southern Gem Co. 332 id. 370; People v. Brown, 261 id. 73; Marshall v. People, 219 id. 99; Illinois Central Railroad Co. v. People, 170 id. 224.\nThe appellant also raises and argues here certain other objections, including one relating to the county collector\u2019s entries in the tax, judgment, sale, redemption and forfeiture record required to be kept by him under section 188 of the Revenue act, (State Bar Stat. 1935, chap. 120, p. 2646,) alleging that the entries therein pertaining to the appellant\u2019s real estate were not made in compliance with the provisions of that section but were in violation thereof. Such objections cannot here be considered, since the objections filed by. the appellant in the trial court did not raise those issues. People v. Irvin, 325 Ill. 497; People v. New York Central Railroad Co. 296 id. 187.\nFor the reasons stated, the judgment of the county court of Lake county was correct and is affirmed.\nJudgment affirmed.", "type": "majority", "author": "Mr. ChiEE Justice Herricic" } ], "attorneys": [ "Runyard & Behanna, (William R.
