Board OF county commissioners met
pursuant to adjournment taken from
the meeting of May 9Th. Present JUL
ius Fenner, chairman, Ben MOser and
John Erickson with the auditor as
clerk.
In the matter of the division of
Grant Center into several school dis
tricts, the attorney generals opinion
is as follows: "Basing my opinion
upon the authorities cited, it appears
to me, that if the voters of the town.
ship were duly advised of the time and
place by actual notice or otherwise,
and as stated in your letter. that the
election was held at the usual voting
place for the township, so that as q
matter OF fact no one was disfran-
chised, and that there is every reason
to believe that as full and fair vote
was had as there would have been had
the directions of the statute been ex-
pressly complied with, it is valid
election, even though the place where
the election was held had never been
designated as voting place by the
board. If the place where the election
was held had in fact sometime been
designated by the the board as a vot-
ing place, it occurs~tO me there would
be no question as to the regularity of
the election" The petition was grant,
ed to divide said township as follows:
Sections, l 2 10 II II to beknown as
school district No. l; AS, 6, Z, 8, 9, dis
trict No. 2; 16, II, Is, 19, 20, q, district
