TO GUST Tim
Complaint of Misconduct Against
Justice Quinn

John T.Hadox has a grievance against
Justice NJ. F. Quinn of Ell Monte town.
ship, and has filed complaint against
him charging misconduct in office.
1t is alleged that an action was
brought before the township justice
wherein one e. w. Bowman was plain
tiff and af1iant defendant, wherein it was
sought to recover certain moneys all
legged to be due for labor. Judgment
was given III favor of plaintiff for $35. 20.
with costs, and an execution issued.
Affiant desired to appeal to the supe
rior court, and had the necessary bond
and sureties ready, but Justice Quinn
refused to administer the oath of JUS
tification to Il. F. Maxon, one of the
sureties, and still refuses to receive or
file the bond.
In these premEas affant maintains
that the justice is guilty of wilfully re
fusing to perform his official duties and
axis that he be made to show cause
why he should not be ousted from Of
flee.

What turned out to be stormy meet

held in Justice Owens court room yes.
terday. There were about eighteen
members present, and fully third of
this number hailed from Recorder
Hodgman's office. and were headed by
A. W. Kinney. They were we'll supplied
with proxies from all parts of the coun-
ty, and it was soon evident that they
were determined on carrying things
their own way. The others had only
received notice Of the meeting during
the day, and had no opportunity to Sc
cure proxies.
Luther Brown was placed in nominal
tion for president. He was opposed by
some of the members. and other NOM
nations were offered, but it is claimed
that Chairman Kinney would not rec
ognize any names offered by othersti1an
the Hodgman delegates.
Things finally got so warm for the
members who were not included in the
majority that they rose and took their
departure in a body. They were high
ly indignant at Kinneys action, and did
not hesitate to express their feelings.
