.iovERNoR MAY BE IN CONTEMPT

II
Contest For Brigadier of First Iowa Bri-
gade Has Reached a Climax.
DEs, MONIES, Jan. 11.-Governor
Drake must commission John r. Prime
as brigadier in the First brigade, Iowa
National guard, or answer for contempt
of court. In case he is brought up for
contempt, the governors attorney has
stated he will pardon himself, and the
interesting spectacle will be presented
of the executive and judicial depart
ments in direct conflict with each other.
Nearly year ago Prime was elected
by the First brigade as its commander.
Adjutant-Gen Wright had befriend-
ed James A. Guest, his opponent, and
declined to admit Primes election. He
ordered new election, and again Prime
won. Then the vote was so canyassed
as to throw out large number of Prime
votes, Guest was declared elected and
was commissioned. Primo sued out n
mandamus to compel the governor to
commission him.
The case has been pending several
months and today Judge Spurrier de-
cided it. He holds that Prime was
elected; that only personal spite actuated
the adjutant and governor in refusing
him the commission and holds that the
governor must commission him at once.
Attorney General Bentley represented
the governor at the trial. He declared
the governors authority as commander
in nbiaf of tba o,,ord ro,,,oupt fo Al
courts and said he would not obey its
orders. Ii committed for contempt, he
would pardon himself.
The defense will appeal at once and
an early hearing is expected. Prime
will commence proceeding to GUST
Guest as commander of the brigade, and
some sensational features are expected,
as the governor is expected to refuse to
obey the courts decision.

CHEROKEE, Ia, Jan. 1.-THE grand
jury failed to return an Indictment
against Rev. Mr.. Benedict for the shoot
ing of Harry Mewhirter at Larrabee the
9th Of last November. Mewhirter was
conducting drug business at that time,
and the trouble that led up to the shoot
ing was caused by the preacher swear
ing out warrant and having Mewhirt-
er's place searched for liquors. Mewhirt-
er's wound still troubles him, and it is
thought he will have to undergo pain
full operation and have the ball eE-
tracted before he can obtain any com
