WAR ON OVER SEAT
OF JACKSON COUNTY
Preliminarles to an Acrimonious
Contest Figure Before
Supreme Court.

A mandamus proceeding, argued
yesterday in the state supreme court,
is said to be one of the preliminaries
to a bitter county removal war in
Jackson county. Lakef1eld, somewhere
near the geographical center of the
county, is rival candidate with jack
son village for county seat honors.
The action was originally commence
ed in the district court Of Jackson
county to compel County Auditor P. ID,
Mcclellan to extend on the tax books
of the county $4,000 levied by the
county commissioners for court house
purposes. The auditor contended that
the proceeding was illegal and that as
the books had gone out of his possess
sion he could not comply with the or
der of the commissioners. The dis
trict court sustained the auditor and
the mandamus proceedings were APP
pealed to the supreme court by the
commissioners, and argued and sub
mitted yesterday.
The present county seat is at Jack
son and it Is said that the proposed
levy of $4,000 on the taxable property
for the taxes of 1904 if put in opera
ton will create fund which is to be
the nucleus for a larger fund which
will provide a new court house to be
herents argue that the proposed levy
is illegal, and say that if they can
defeat it their town stands an excel
lent chance for securing the county
seat. Senators Putnam, of Blue Earth,
and Somerville, of Sleepy Eye, are at
torneys respectively for the county
commissioners and the auditor.

BARTENDER FINED SO
FOR SHAPING A MAN
M. Larson Fails to Show That William
Hines Broke His Nose.

The testimony of a number Of wit
nesses threw some doubt on the asser-
ton Of M. Larson that William Hines,
bartender, struck him with such
force that his nose was broken, and
Hines escaped with the light sentence
Of $40 when tried in police court yes
terday.
The affair occurred in a saloon
owned by William O'Neil, near Eighth
and Robert, Larson claiming that he
was struck because he was trying to
induce a friend to leave the saloon
Hines declared that Larson was inter-
fering with other customers, and that
he slapped Larson with his open hand
AS this blow would not have broken
his nose, Hines insisted that Larson
must have received his injuries in some
other manner.

BLAMES HARD LUCK
Colored Man Says Hoodoo Gets
Him In Trouble.

John William McKinnie is colored
and is employed as a waiter at the
Merchants hotel, and when tried in
police court yesterday on the charge
of non-support claimed that if he did
not give proper sustenanee to his wife,
Bertha, 1t was all due to "hard luck"
The court would. not accept the eX-
cuse and held him to the district court.
AS one of the principal grounds on
Which she based the charge Mrs. Nc
Kinnie, now living with her mother at
$50 Fuller street, testified that during
the two years previous to Dec. 81 last,
she and her husband were elected from
five different houses for non-payment
Of rent To this McKinnie answered
in kind and asserted, under oath, that
the real number OF ejectmentS was
two, and that it was necessary to va
cate the other places because Of Mrs.
McKinn1e's habit of calling bad names.
1t was necessary, said Mrs. McKin-
ME, for her to go home on several oc-
casions, and in this she was corrobo-
rated by Mrs. Jane Hopkins, her moth
er. But McKinnie claimed otherwise,
and was very sure that Mrs. McKin-
ME had gone home but once, and that
was on the last day Of 1908, at an hour
but shortly removed from the glad
New Year, which was about ready to
come in and take possession.
QAIS. 1ChluI4lG uGIdllSQ that OOlA 1lOI
self and the eighteen months-old child
of the couple had often been without
food and were minus proper clothing,
all because the husband and natural
provider failed to do his duty. To
which McKinnie answered that for
two years it seemed that he had been
in the hands of a hoOdOO, bad luck
pursuing him at every turn, until 1t
was necessary to send Mrs. Mck1nn1e
to her girlhood home, an act that was
very repugnant to him.
McKinnie, at the very end of the
trial, came forward with his real de-
tense. A month or so ago he secured
position with the Mime Harvester
company as janitor, and was to have
been furnished a room and heat and
given $50 a month with which to pur-
chase food and other necessaries for
the wife and babe. Fastening to the
Hopkins home he failed to find his
wife, but met her father, who told him
that he needn't come round" as Mrs.
McKinnie refused to live with him.
AS a further and still more convincing
defense McKinnie asserted that he now
has a position at the Merchants as a
waiter, and that he has been told by
the head waiter that he can stay there
as long as the head waiter manages to
hold his Job. In addition he has a
room at 290 Edmund street, and that
Mrs. McKinnie is welcome to make her
home there.
Best 1 can do, judge" he explained.
Il get $25 month and my board at the
hotel, but / can't take her there. But l
think my run of bad luck is over and
I'm dead sure willing to do the right
thing"
ing his appearance in the district
court.

Blasting operations, incident to the

immediate repairs are necessary.
- The church building adjoins the

the walls of the church in several
places. Though most of the blasting

The matter was brought before the

This Sum VIII Be Paid to
Judges and Clerks.
Established 1882

Municipal elections, Gaming as they
do every two years, are very costly,
this being brought to mind by the
fact that Wednesday Of next week
there will be distributed to the judges
and clerks that acted in the recent
campaign the sum of $11, 400 This
means that there will be paid out a
total of $500 in each precinct, $25 60
and the two clerks being given $3.50
each.
This is not all the expense of the
campaign to the city proper, but is
more than enough to pay the salary
Of the mayor for four years, besides
which it will be necessary to expend
the same amount at the fall election.
