Petition for Mandamus.

Guthrie. o. r., April IA
petition was filed in the supreme
court this morning by Judge j, G.
Strang as attorney for Robert j..
Ray of Lawton, asking for per-
cmtory writ of mandamus to compel
the following persons to announce
the result of the last city election:
d. A. Jacobs, city clerk; Chas.
Smith, Syl Dixon, j. A. Moore, j..
G. Tousley, w. NJ. Bruce, w. E.
Pierce. w. S. Cash and G. w.
Cotney. The men mentioned con
stitute the election board and an
nounce the result of said election.
This the members of the old city
council refuse to do, and az a result
of this inactlon, there are two
councils attempting to do business
in Lawton. This condition of at
fairs is the result of the controversy
between Mayor Leslie p. Ross and
others, over the calling of the elec-
ton, which is the usual custom in
the territory. Ross contended that
the special election held last
fall entiteled the officers elected at
that time to hold over for two
years, or until the next regular cleo
tion of mayor and officials, which
is next spring. The case was taken
into the supreme court, and is now
followed by the petition asking for
the writ of mandamus. The su-
preme court will have to settle the
dispute at Lawton, and even if the
writ of mandamus is granted, there
are likely to be other complications,
a' the members OF the old city
council state that they will fight
the matter until there is no hope of
gaining another point.
