and captured about thirty-two OF the
petitioners, and unwittingly filed their
remonstrance with the recorder, when
the petitioners procured copy or the

davits from persons who were on both
petition and remonstrance, to the effect
that they wished to be counted on the

Both parties were in vinton Tuesday
with their several attorneys, C.W.Snyder
appearing for the remonstrance, and

The board Of supervisors being in ses-

The fine point to be decided is
whether or no a petitioner who has
signed the petition, and then the re-

decided upon by the courts.
