but DR.. Evans was quick to explain that

HUNTSVILLE CITIZENS
ARE NOW IN DILEMMA
Trouble Is That They DO Not
Know Just Where "Thcy
Are At"

Special TO The Tribune.
OGDEN. Nov. l0.-Thc citizens Of
Huntsville. the little city eleven miles
east OF Ogden sre iu somewhat Of 4
dilemma at present They do not know
whether they are under the control OF
tho municipal ordinances. formerly opcr-
atve. or whether they arc to look 10
the Weber county commissioners FOR the
legal control OF the affairs OF the city.
in short. the people Of the little town
arc not quite sure whether they are
living in an incorporated city. or a coun-
try settlement.
The tanglc arose In this manner: Some
weeks ago majority Of the taxpayers
petitioncd the district court for author
ity TO vote on the question whether the
city should he disincorporatcd. Tho petit
TONERS argued that tho cost Of maintain
ing the several departments Of tho little
municipality was too great and that the
burden fell heavily upon the compare
lively small number OF taxpayers re-
siding thcrc.
An order was issued by Judge Howell
insiructing the city recorder TO prepare
the necessary Eyes" and mo ballots,
So that the question of the disncorpora
tion of the city could be decided upon
ON November .. the day of the cleo
ton the machines showed that total
Of scvcnty-thrce votes had been cast
OF this number thirty three votes were
I'm favor OF diSinCorporn tion and twenty
three against it, Eleven votes were reg
istcrcd i'm blank and six were not ac-
counted for The Judges of the election
evidently neglected TO lock the machine,
so the voter would bc imperatively re-
Quircd to cast Il ballot on the question,
and In this manner a satisfactory vote
could not he obtained.
The statute of the state, providing for
the disinCorporation OF "A city requires
that a aiority OF the votes east at tho
election must he in favor OF disnCorpora-
ton before such action can be valid. AS
only thirty three votes have been re-

. it was decided to take no action on
tho election until the district court has
