FRAUD I'M KANSAS CoUNTY-SEAT CASE
THE USE OF MONEY FOR BRIBERY COMMENTED

THE USE OF MONEY FOR BRIBERY COMMENTED
ON BY THE CHIEF-JUSTICE OF THE STATE.
Topeka, Kan, Oct THE State Supreme Court
handed down opinion late Saturday evening in
the famous Gray COunty-seat contest between the
towns of CimarrOn and ingalls,, for the permanent
county scat. One OF the interesting features OF the
case IS the strong difference OF opinion which exists
among the Supreme Court Judges. The decision
declaring in favor of ingalls, by Judge Va!en
tine, and IS sustained by all the judges except Chief
Justice Horton, who hands down vouminous opinion
dissenting from the decision of the majority Of the
court The Chief Justice takes OCCASION in his dis.
senting opinion, severely to condemn the methods
of A. T. Soule, the New-York millionaire who
founded the town of ingalls,. He says:
"A. T. Soulc, worth from "a 100000 IN

an eieotoh contest as this, Is 10 declare the whole
