County Commissioners Bring
Suit Against J. NJ. Kerr
WHOLE AMOUNT S2968.94
Alleged That Kerr Retained
Fees He Collected

Yesterday afternoon County Attorney
Eckstein, representing the board of coun-
ty commissioners, fled two suits in the
district court against the ex-register of
deed, John VI. Kerr, and the American
Bonding and Trust company. who Sc
cured the bond furnished by Kerr while
in office The suits are to recover 81
e6S "a, which amount the plaintiffs allege
is excess fees collected by Mr.. Kerr while
in office and which they state were not
turned over to the county treasurer nor
properly accounted for.
The first suit covers a period of two
years from January 2. 1860, when Mr..
Kerr took possession of the Office, until
January 2, 1902. The petition states that
January 2, 1901, Kerr. as register OF deeds.
collected as fees the sum Of s6,54S10.
That the population of the county was
then less than 5000 and that the regis
ter of deeds was entitled to retain the
maximum amount of 5000 Of the amount
of fees That S4,54S.15 was in excess Of
the amount due him for January 2, 1901,
but that he was entitled to half Of this
amount. or s2 ,274.0S, and the defendants
we're entitled to q 274.0. That he paid in
to the county treasurer's office 81, ZsI-l2,
leaving S96S. 50, being the balance of the
one-half of the excess fees not account
ed for. This amount the plaintiffs claim,
with 6 per cent interest from date. They
auege that the defendant refused 70 turn
over this amount when II was demanded
from him. In the first suit the second
cause given for action Is as 1onows: That
for the year ending January 2, 1902, the
defendant was entitled to the sum OF
s.. 900. That the excess fees amounted
to So 963 and that Kerr was entitled TO
81 9S1 80 and the plaintiffs to a similar
amount. but that Kerr turned over only
81 .S40.95. leaving 81. 1905 due to the plain
tiffs. They allege that he refused pay
ment and claim judgment against him on
the two counts for the amount OF 800
with interest at per cent.
The second suit is for the year ending
January y. 1903 In this petition ii is al
legged that Kerr collected fees amount
ing TO IS. 292 90, that the population OF
the county prior to April, 1902. was less
than 5000. and after that time less than
10000. 1t is stated that for his services
that year Kerr was entitled to S2.SS3-33.
leaving the excess fees of S5,959.15, or
which he was entitled to one-half or 81
979 81. and the county similar amount.
That Kerr turned into the county treas
urer during that year s2,O1o.S4, leaving a
balance due the county of Ss6S.94.

ALL ENCOURAGE IT
Wichita Business Men Want
Interurban Line Built
ALL BUSINESS INTERESTS
viii Be Benefited by COnStruc-
? ton of the Road

Every business man In Wichita is
watching closely the movements of the
men who are working to build an inter
urban electric line from this city to
Arkansas City. Every business man.
whether wholesale or retail is vitality
interested in the construction of this
line. without doubt there never has been
a railroad proposition which so generally
met with approval and support as this
electric line. Prominent business men
of the city who have talked about the
line gave their heartiest support and en-
courasement.
For nearly a year the matter of an in
terurban line has been talked about, and
yesterday it was found that nearly every
business man in this city had made a
study of interurban lines in the East.
Many had obtained reports of several
lines, showing cost of construction and
operation and a number had taken the
trouble to write personal letters to the
managers Of lines and had. received much
informal ton regarding them.
visited in sections where numbers Of in
terurban lines are found and these were
the most enthusiastic. An interurban
lie r-a'-es ore large community Of the
territory through which it runs. 1t
places metropolitan advantages at the
very door of people fifty or a hundred
miles away The service is fast, reliable
ard frequent.
Yesterday several of the business men
We're called upon and asked their opin-
ion of the Interurban. Mr. Charles G..
Cohn, Of the Boston Store. said:
wichita cannot do enough to get that
road running. It unites communities and
brings business men in closer touch with
the people they wish to reach. In every
instance where interurban lines are built
Improvement has been shown in every
town along the line. 1t brings business
TO every town and il is more convenient.
The farmer, when he has some stock
ready for market. puts it on an interur-
ban train and ships it. He takes his stock
10 town and returns in two or three
hours, and he does not have to await
the convenience of his neighbors TO help
him. Any reasonable proposition which
this company of reliable and energetic
business men may make to this city for
building the line should meet with the
hearty approval of every man in Wichita
and the surrounding towns. Interurban
lines make large cities and bring bust
ness to the merchants"
Mr. NJ Greenfield of Greenfield Broth
ers, clothiers. said:
Push it along. An interurban line
will bring as much business to Wichita
as moving two thousand families here,
and 1t will not be a detriment to any
other point 1t is progress. Wichita
