The people of Ebert County have
the County Clerks Office, as conducted
oy Clerk James But that even james,
would utterly refuse to record the pro
ceedngs OF tae Commissioners ana to is
sue warrants ordered by the board in
payment Of bills duly audited and al
lowed was past belief. He has SO re-
fused, however, and the Commissioners
were obliged to adjourn uutil April Il
In the meantime steps will be taken to
enforce the performance of public duty
by Clerk James.
This latest action of James is only diff
ferent from past performances of that
official in that his refusal to perform
the duties OF clerk to the board has in
convenienced more people. On the oc-
casion OF the next meeting of the board
the Commissioners indulge the hope
that the people of the county may as
semUie al kIowa in numbers. 1t Is not
believed that James would dare neglect
MS duties in the very presence OF the
people, and, moreover, should he do 80,
the people can learn at tirst hand just
now that gentleman deties the rights OF
those VINO have elevated him to little
power.
just prior to adjournment the board
passed the following resolutions. They
contain food for reflections:
