WILKIN DADS ARE THRIFTY.
County Fathers Line Their Purses
With Fat Allowances

County Attorney Ballentine, of Wilkin
county, had conference with Gov Clough
yesterday with the hope of preventing the
county commissioners of Wilkin county from
continuing their methods of overcharging the
county for their services
The court decided that they were entitled
to mileage only for the shortest distance from
their homes to Breckenridge the county seat,
instead of charging for the full distance,
Fergus Falls to reach their destination. The
court also decided that they had done wrong
in charging the county for three days WORK,
when the board met as the county commits
s1oners, as the board of equalization and as
the board of audit, all in the same day, but,
according to Mr.. Ballentine the commission
ers go right on charging up these accounts as
though no decision of the court had been rem
dered
He wants to stop this without putting the
county to the expense of another appeal to
the courts.
