A half dozen of the members OF the

"A stranger in the city last Saturday
would have concluded that the entire
population had gone insane, as on every

desire to solve the puzzle which A. w.

-Eloping couples can no longer flee
across the line to Idaho to have the knot
tied without delay, as it is now no easier

one of the requisites for getting married,
and unless the girl is Is years of age she
will have to have her ma with her. This

SAYS he WILL NOT DO 1T.
Attorney General Df ives Threatens to Com
mence Proceeding Against IarvIn

A gentleman just from Topeka said
yesterday that Attorney General Dawes
would at once commence proceedings
to COMPEL County Clerk Carvin to
spread the current university tax on
the tax rolls of Sedgwick county.
Mr.. Carvin has been notified to levy
this tax several times but has just as
often refused TO do it and now the at
torney general proposes to see if he
can compel Mr.. Carvin to do il.
The dispute is one rather OF law than
of facts and while Mr. Carvin agrees
with the attorney general and other
state officers that the tax ought to
have been assessed against the proper
~ of Sedgwick county he also claims
that he has no power under the law 10
levy tax on any of the property in
this county.
The state board has heretofore as
sessed the university tax but the pres
ent attorney general told the board
under the law of 1895 they had no right
to assess II but that the county clerks
must make the assessment.
About all the county clerks in the
state have acted on the advice of the
attorney general and made the levy
but Mr.. Carvin refuses TO accept the
opinion of the attorney general in this
case at law and refuses.
Mandamus proceedings will be COM
menced against Mr.. Carvin in order to
bring the matter before the supreme
court and get its construction OF the
law
Mr.. Carvin is given credit with being
pretty well posted on the tax laws of
the state and some of the lawyers in
this city are of the opinion that Mr..
Cary!n is right in this case and that
the attorney general fell down in his
construction OF the law
prominent attorney said last night
Il have not examined this case and
do not know anything about it, II. how
ever, Mr.. Carvin has made a thorough
examination of the subject and taken
this stand there is a very strong prob
ability at least that he is right"
However the case may finally be de-
cided by the supreme court the fact
remains that Mr.. Carvin is honest in
the stand taken by him and only re-
fuses TO levy the tax because he is
thoroughly Of the opinion that there is
no authority OF law empowering him
to do so. The opinion OF the attorney
general to the contrary notwithstand-
ing

FIGHT WILL REOPEN TOMORROW.
Great Number OF Witnesses will be Subpe
naed in the Citizens Club Case.

The big fight over the replevin case in
Judge Jones court was only one phaze
in the citizen club contest with the au-
thorities.
Chief Massey has been committed by
Judstice Jones and while he is still per-
forming his duties as chief Of police he
is constantly a prisoner for having re-
sisted an order Of court
In the meantime the Massey case has
been taken TO the supreme court for
writ Of habeas corpus and on an agreed
statement Of the assistant attorney
general and the attorneys for the citi-
Zens club.
The case out of which this all grew
was the arrest of Henry and Billy
SchnitZler, Henry Billman and James
Burns, all members of the Citizens club,
for violation OF the prohibitory liquor
law.
The case proper against these defend
ents Will come up before Judge Hatton
for hearing tomorrow and some of the
attorneys say it will be a jury trial and
VIII occupy the attention of Judge Hat
tons court full week.
The prosecution has given the names
or thlrty-six citizens who will be sub
phoenaed as witnesses in the case while
the defense will have about 100 SUBJ
phoenaed. Otto Eckstein and Kos Har-
ris will appear for the defendants.
i ne DTOSeCUllOil Will aim 10 SHOW ina
the defendants in the case have violated
the prohibitory liquor law of this state
and the defense will try to show by a
great array of witnesses that they in
addition to being members of the club
are the employees of that social organ
ization.
This will mean that these men, de-
fendents in the case, will set up the
claim that they did not sell any intoxi-
hfIr ha -fr a,.Arr
served it the same as waiter al a no.
tel.
1t will be claimed that he men who
furnished the liquor did not receive any
pay for it and that the men who actu-
ally received the money did so as an
initiation fee to the club and that no
sale of liquor was intended by them.
II will doubtless be a great legal fight
and the attorneys in the case will be
well fed and the taxpayers of Sedg-
wick county viii find out later what
they have in it.

BIG FALLING OFF
PRIMARY ELECTION VOTE FALLS
DOWN NEARLY SIXTY PER CENT.
No Interest Whatever Taken and there was
Only .O1 Votes Cast Against 1000 Two
Months Ago for the Same Omce-James
V. Dougherty Carries the City for Judge
by a Very Small Plurality, but the
Country has Not Been Heard from Yet
Harton, it is Thought will be the Nomi-
nee by Small Plurality.

So far as the city is concerned the
question as TO who shall be the repub-
lican nominee for judge is settled.
James V. Dougherty has been chosen
by plurality of 3d.
All the returns will not be in from
the county before this afternoon and
until then it cannot be definitely as
certained who the nominee will be-
The race is between Dou9herty and
Hatton and it is not at all unlikely
that Hatton will be the nominee even
though Dougherty carried the city.
The fact that Judge Balderston did
not run in the country better than in
dica tons show was quite a surprise
but the fact is that il became reported
in the townships for some reason that
he had withdrawn from the race and
he had not time to contradict the re-
port.
Both in the city and in the country
the vote was very light At the Re-
publican judicial primaries two months
ago the vote cast in the city was 2,091 |;
the total vote cast yesterday was 70l
reduction of over so per cent.
There was no effort at headquarters
to disguise the fact that the immense
falling off in the vote was due 10 the
GAitc VI lilS Sldlt u a
ton in the local affairs of Wichita
and some very cutting comments were
made. There was absolutely no inter
est taken. II was anticipated that
there would not be more than 800
votes cast in the city but nobody
thought it would fall so low as 200.
The vote by wards is as follows:
First ward-Hatton, so; Balderston,
IS; Dougherty, 46.
Second ward-Hatton, IS; Balderston,
81; Dougherty, 40.
Third ward-Hatton. 50; Balderston,
16: Dougherty, II.
Fourth ward-Hatton, A; Balderston,
Sc: Dougherty, 50.
Fifth ward-Hatton, 10; Balderston.
II; Dougherty, 81.
Sixth ward-Hatton, %; Balderston,
8; Dougherty, %.

ID. L. Eaton OF the Carey hotel. after

seeing by the evidence given that IL
anybody was guilty OF the charges

would be done with the case and the
dispatch in the Eagle was the first in
.imation that the United States au-

When Lusk was first indicted for
making false entries in the books of the
bank. which was the crime charged, he
