TWO POINTS OF VIEW
The Case OF Atkinson VS.. the Commits
sIoners Argued

When court convened yesterday the
case OF Atkinson VS.. the board of county
commissioners was called. For some
reason or other the county and prescott
ing attorney did not put in an appearance
for the county, and Potter & Burke
represented the commissioners and A. c.
Campbell the clerk OF the court. An ad-
journment vas taken till 3 p. N. to give
the defendants counsel time to prepare.
When court met in the afternoon a de-
murrer was filed to the petition and the
argument at once taken up.
Mr.. Potter commended that mandamus
not the proper remedy, as by our
statutes the county commissioners were,
in the allowance of claims against the
county, clothed with judicial powers, and
that their discretion in respect to such
claims could not be controlled by man
damus. Further, that the petition in the
case was defective in that it asked
not only that the board be compelled to
audit the account of Mr.. Atkinson, but
that they be compelled to allow it. While
it might be held that acting on a bill was
a mere ministerial duty which could be
controlled by mandsmus. it could in no
sense be said that the allowance of bill
was ministerial and could be compelled.
Mr.. Campbell, in reply, commended that
when the law gives to an officer a specified
salary. the board of county commissioners
have no discretion in the matter, but
must paw that salary. He cited several
decisions showing that a salary differed
from a contract in this respect; and took
the ground that the board could be COM
PEELED to pay salaries due any officer even
though a bill for the services had meyer
been presented. The law fixes the amount
to be paid Mr.. Atkinson, and the COM
missioners have no control whatever over
this salary; their only duty in connection
with it is to pay it at the end of each
quarter; and that duty is, of necessity,
ministerial in Its character and can be
compelled by mandamus.
All the interested parties were present
throughout the afternoon. The court
took the matter under Amusement and
will render a decision on the demurrer in
a few DAYS. The demurrer raises all the
important questions in the case.

No Trace of Mr.. Dawson's Body Yet
Discovered.

All day yesterday the search for the
body of Cashier M. B. Dawson was con-
tinued at Hutton's lake near Laramie.
No results whatever were attained. A
Laramie lady had a presentiment that she
could designate the exac spot in the LAKE
where the body would be found. She
visited the lake, but so far her present.

with the progress of the work.

Does it Contain Ammonia ?

The charge is being made that the Royal Baking
Powder contains ammonia. We would have supposed that
the emphatic condemnation of ammonia baking powders
by the most eminent physicians throughout the land, and
the fact of the three leading chemists of Minnesota max
ing their report to the Senate Committee recently showing
that bread baked with the Royal" contained ammonia
and the hostility now being manifested by the public
against all ammonia and alum baking powders would have
driven them permanently from the market.
In view of the fact that Baking Powder has become
an indispensable article in every kitchen, it is gratifying
to know that there are brands in the market to which no
suspicion of any kind has ever attached. DR.. Prices
Cream Baking Powder is a pure cream of tartar powder
free from every faint of ammonia, alum or other harmful
substance.
DR.. Prices Cream Baking Powder is re-
ported by all authorities as free from Ammonia,
Alum, or any other adulterant. In fact, the
purity of this ideal powder has never been ques-
toned.
