A Big Suit.

The attorneys in the case of Assignee
l.. Kells VS.. Mrs Clara c. Mcclure as
execu.rix of the estate of T.. G.. Mcclure,
Wednesday took the deposition of
Mrs. Mcclure at her home in this city.
MIR. w. E. Hale of Minneapolis repre-
sented the plaintiff, and D. T. Calhoun,
of Calhoun & Bennett, M. D. Taylor
and T. S. Mcclure were on the part of
the defence. The suit in which this de-
position is wanted is pending in Du-
ssnth and has been brought by the as
signee to set aside the deeds to a large
quantity of pine lands in Carlton and
st. Louis counties. 1t is alleged b.
the plaintiff that the transfer was made
by Clarke in order to defraud hiscredi-
tors, and the latter are the commence
ment of thesuit. The defendant claims
that the transfer was made several years
before the Clarke failure and only con-
veyed Clarke's half interest in these
lands which were owned jointly by the
late firm of Clarke & Mcclure. The
conveyance it is claimed was made to
cancel obligations of CLARKE to the es-
tate at that time. The defendant ad-
mits that tee deeds were not recorded
until shortly before the Clarke assign
ment, when it was done for obvious
reaso ons.
The deposition taken today was
along the line as to Mrs. McClure's
knowledge of these transactions. The
transfers involve between $120, 900 and
$50. .0OO.-St. Cloud Times.

THE MAYORS CASE APPEALED.

MAYOR TOWNSEND has appealed
from the findings of the city council
sitting as high court of impeach-
ment, and which assumed to remove
him from office. The question involved
is, and it is an important one. 1t is:
Must the Mayor sign any and every
city order presented to him by \ autho-
rity of the council under penalty of re-
moval, in case he refuse Tha tbs the
vital point in this matter, and practic-
ally all that is left of it. The case will
go directly to the supreme court upon
the evidence taken at the Impeachment
proceedings, and it is hoped decision
can be reached before the election,
which is called for February 9Th. The
papers have been served, and every
effort will be made to secure an early
hearing.
The issue involved is one which in
terests every resident and taxpayer.
IF the council alone has power to de-
termine the purposes for which the
public money may be used then there
is no reason why the Mayors sigma
ture is required on city order, and
there is no wholes ONE check upon any
council, no matter how reckless, extra
VACANT or illegal it may choose to be,
short of an expensive and tedious ap-
peal to the courts by a tax payer or
some other party in interest. The re
suit of the appeal will be awaited with
interest.
