Enjoins water Bonds.

KEARNEY, Neb.. Dec 15.-(Special Tele-
gram)-County Judge Hallowell has issued
a temporary injunction restraining the
members of the Board Of Trustees and
the village clerk of the village of Gibbon
from issuing or selling the $4,000 water
bonds recently voted, or from taking any
further action on the waterworks PROPOSE
ton until the matter is finally disposed of
in district court. Bond was fixed at $500.
The action was brought by Frank Hershey
for himself and on behalf of the taxpayers
of the city. Recently a special election
was held in Gibbon for the purpose of vot-
ing on the proposition to issue village
bonds in the sum of $4,000, the proceeds 20
be used to install a water system. The law
requires that such a proposition shall carry
by a two-thirds vote. 1t was carried by one
and two-thirds above the required num-
Der, but in his petition for an injunction
Mr.. Hershey alleges that votes were cast
by persons not entitled to vote. Other al
legations are that plans and specifications
were not drawn by a competent engineer
and that 1t is not known that the pro-
posed plant can be installed for $4,000

Case Grows Out of Cham berlain
Prosecution.

TECUMSEH, Neb., Dec. 15.-(Special
Telegram -Proceedings were instituted in
the county court today against Hon. w. r.
Barton of this city, ex-president of the
failed Chamberlain banking house of this
city, on the charge of perjury. Three pro-
ceedings were ordered by Judge B. +.
Good Of Wahoo when Charles NJ. Chamber
lain was on trial in Nemaha county on a
change of venue in october on a charge Of
embezzlement. Judge Good was OF the
opinion that the testimony given by Mr.
Barton in a case here which was brought
about by the bank failure and in the case
then at bar was different. Mr.. Barton
waived preliminary examination and Judge
James Livingston bound him over TO trial
in the district court, fixing bond at 5000,
which was given.
District court will be In session in this
city next week and the case may come up
at that time. Mr.. Barton is leading citi-
zen, being manager Of local marble yard.
He was float senator from Johnson and
Nemaha counties in the Nebraska legisla-
ture in 1899, and at that time was promin-
emit politician. His integrity has never be-
fore been questioned, and his friends hope
he will have no trouble in proving his
innocence.
