Money Order Commissions

Bloomington. Ill, Jan. 23-The attor-
ney general of the United State recently
decided that postmasters we're not enti-
tied to fees for money orders in postoHices
in which the money order business was
done by the clerk instead of the post
master in person, and that any such fees
taken by postmaster must be returned.
The amount of money already taken by
postmasters on this account was estima.
ted at S25O,0O0 to $500 600. In order to
get y definite ruling on this matter the
case of Gen. Dick, postmaster at Bloom
ingten, has been made test case. to be
decided by Judge Drummond, of the
federal court, at Chicago Postmastere
similarly situated have been appealed to
and are responding with funds for Gen
Dick to defend the suit. It is rumored
that the clerk who actually did the
money order work in the Bloomington
post office has decided to bring euit
against Postmaster Dick for the fees col
iected aud retained by the latter.

There does not appear to be an over
weening desire upon the part OF the rep
resentatives of the Ordway faction in
-anborn county to have the court pass
upon the case brought to test the legality
of the appointment Of tho second batch
of commissioners for that county. They
have declared they were not ready for
trial and have ask ID for continuance.
The prosecution was ready and anxious
to go ahead and refused to consent to a
longer delay than the March term of court
at Mitchell. The case is this: Three
Sanborn county commissioners were
appointed who located the county seat
at Letcher. Ordway wanted it located
at Forestburg, for reasons which do not
appear upon the surface. To carry out
his designs q second set of commission.
ers were appointed. The original com.
missioners bring an action citing the
second batch to appear aud show by
what authority they are acting as county
commissioners. The defendants allege
that they are not ready to try the case
aud Judge Edgerton has given then
some six weeks more time in which tc
prepare themselves. The first victory is
for the Letcher commissioners and the
weakness OF the other side is shown il
it's motion for continuance.
Press and daily Dakotaian. (Yankton, Dakota Territory [S.D.]) 1880-1889, 1884-01-25

congress. Those who believe that meas.
ure to be what the chief justice Of Da
kota says it to be-unconstitutiona
and vold-are willing to submit their
side of the case to the supreme court of
Dakota and abide by its decision. They
do not fly to the balls of congress and ask
for the relief which it is the province of
the courts to grant. Bat it is the speca.
lators, with the corrupt Ordway at their
head, the speculators who bribed the
last Dakota legislature to pass their un.
constitutional act, who now invoke the
aid OF the national legislative body for
the vitalization of dead enactment.
If this be their plan We earnestly hope
