Want to Change Counties.

Portland, Me-, Jan. 11.-One Of the pc
titions that will be presented to the legis-
lature early in the present session will
come from Brunswick, and will, 1t is
claimed, bear the signatures Of the heav-
lest taxpayers of that town, asking that
Brunswick be set off from Cumberland
county and tnnexed to Sagadahoc. The
petitioners claim that Brunswick, one
OF the largest towns in Cumberland.
outside OF Portland, does not receive it's
share of expenditure of the public funds.
and another argument, which is not
stated In the petition, Is that the poll
ticians do not receive their share Of the
county offices. Then. it Is claimed that
Brunswick is geographically situated
nearer Bath than Portland. and as these
places are the shire towns of their re-
spective counties, 1t would facilitate pub
lie business in Brunswick to be Joined to
Sagadahoc. and tend to equalize the
valuation and population of the two
counties. now entirely out of proportion.
This move on the part Of Brunswick will
be fought desperately by the delegation
from the western part Of Cumberlan'
county.

ONE question to be voted upon
today is that of the district furnish
ing school books. Under the pres
snt law parents who are not able to
procure books for the use of their
children can obtain thsm on proper
representation to the authorities, &C
that on that score nothing would
be gained by the carrying of the
proposition today. The district is
not now in shape to shoulder this
additional burden of furnishing
books to oil pupils, however worthy
tho object may be. II will mean
quite an addition to the tax levy
that will already be TOO large.

should be furnished by the district,

HISTORY OF THE CASE.
Darlington Convicted of Murder in
the Second Degree.

Darlington was convicted of murder
in the second degree for causing the
death of Mrs. Ida Page of Salt Lake
City by performing upon her a Grim
inal operation. The operation was
done in Box Elder county and Caring
ton was tried there.
From the verdict and sentence of ten
years Imprisonment in the state prison
he took an appeal to the supreme
court and the case was argued on ap-
peal on the 18th OF this month and
taken under adVisement by the court.
A number of alleged errors occurring
at the trial is the basis of the appeal.
He contends that as the offense for
which he was tried was committed I'M
der the territorial government, the
hearing should have been before u
Jurors instead of eight; that he was
entitled to change of venue by rea-
son of prejudice existing against him
in Box Elder county; that the argu-
ment TO the jury was neither opened
nor closed by the county attorney;
that the Indictment charged two dis
tinct offenses. Other errors are also
alleged TO the effect that the verdict
was contrary to law; that the court
erred in admitting certain testimony
and excluding other testimony at the
trial, and so forth.
1t will probably be some weeks be-
fore the decision of the court is hand "a

ALTURAS COUNTY DEBT.
An Old Case Again Before the Idaho
Courts.
Especial to The Herald.e


Boise. Ida. Sept. 25.-During any
time for the past dozen years or more
those who attend Idaho courts and leg
isiatures have been familiar with,
troubles arising over the Indebtedness
OF cid AuturaS county. These troubles
have not yet been settled notwith-
standing the fact that the legislature
has time and again dealt with the ques-
ton. The last legislative effort was in
the creation of the new counties of
Blaine and Lincoln by acts approved
March and March II, 1895, and the
latest appearance of the old trouble in
court was in Boise today wherIstlle suit
brought by Blaine against Lincoln for
an accounting was argued befoye Judge
Stewart.
Reports of the accountants dsiH TIE

countants found the amount of the debt
to be paid by Lincoln was $169,07IS9,
less the value Of the court house prem
ises, Sal, zoo, or S127, 377.S9 They fixed
Blaine's amount at $243, 303.S3 plus the
value of the court house, or 1884, 0G5.S SO.
Blaine county claims that the amount
to be paid by Lincoln is 1929, 49,. SO. The
referee found the present value OF the
court house TO be $4,000. This he
charges to Blaine county, but does not
deduct from Lincoln. He finds Blaine's
portion of the debt to be 1910, 459, plus
SCI, 600, or S341, 459. Lincoln county'S
proportion is $685. 406,4S.
The case was argued yesterday by
Farley L. Williams of Salt Lake and
Vic Borrower of Shoahone for Lincoln
county. and S. B. Kingsbury of Boise
and Lyttleton Price of HALEY for Boise.
Mr.. Kingsbury formally moved for
judgment for 1926, 2SI.O9. The attor-
neys for Lincoln county challenged the
jurisdiction of the court They held
that the accountants we're agents of
the legislature and that their conclu-
sions could not be reviewed by the

any injustice was in appeal to the leg

Dickinson still Arguin g.

Halifax, N. s., Sept. 25.-Don NJ.
Dickinson continued his address today
before the Bering sea commission He
contended that the Seward case had
no standing before the commission.
The claim involves $4,000 In the case
of Winifred, he maintained that the
handing over of the vessel to the
United States by a British man-of- war
stopped Great Britain from making
any claim in the case. Cases of the
Oscar and Halle, he showed that the
British government had been notified
that vessels found with seals on board
would be seized. The Pathfinder he
claimed was seized for violation of
the revenue laws by which vessels
could be searched within II miles of
shore. He then discussed at length the
scope of the convention.
