Auto Smashed

Fred Kruger of Twin Brooks,
who came home from the cities
the first of the week says that
the train he was on struck an
automobile on one of the road
crossings between Meyers and
Montevideo. The view of the
track was somewhat obstructed
by nearby growing trees and
the driver Of the auto took the
chance of running across with
out being able to see down the
track, and the result was dis
astrous. The auto was com.
plelely wrecked and torn into
fragments. Two men and a
woman were in the vehicle and
they we're all thrown quite
ways from the track, and those
who saw the accident felt
certain that the occupants of the
auto would slso be gathered up
in fragments. but strange to
relate they we're found un.
injured. The owner of the
machine was hardly on his feet
before he was mourning the loss
Of his machine. but some one
suggested to HIM that they were
making more If them in the
factories and that he was mighty
lucky IN not having a puncture
IN the pneumatic tire around his
own liver. Some people don't
really know when to feel good.

of interest offered, but also whether
or not the funds would at all times
be subject to check for the use of
the public interests Of the county.
An action upon solvent bond
does not always meet the con-
tingency of the municipality.
We therefore hold that under
this statute there is discretion in
the county court in the selection of
q county depositary.
That the proper exercise of dis
cretion will not be reviewed, we
take to be unquestioned law. Not
withstanding scanty pleadings
upon the part of relators the trial
court heard evidence as if the case
vas being tried upon the theory
of failure to exercise proper
discretion by the county court in
the selection of county depos-
itary. 1t is not necessary for us
to pass upon some questions
argued, for the reason that what
ever be our view of the law, it
would not change this case. 1t
does appear that this case was
tried by relators largely upon the
theory that it was the imperative
duty of the county court to award
the contract to the highest bidder.
The views above expressed pre-
clude this idea. But if we even go
to the question of the abuse of
discretion upon the part of the
county court, for which there may
be remedy, yet under the facts,
such abuse of discretion is not in
this case.
Under the facts the Bank OF
Ironton had it's attorney present
when the bids were opened. He
insisted, as under the law he had
a right to insist, that the bids be
opened on the day named at high
noon; he insisted, as under the
law he did not have the right TO
insist, that the award be made at
once on the bids; at least, two
members of the court wanted
further time to consider, but in
obedience to the insistance OF
counsel for the unsuccessful bank,
they passed upon the question
without adjourning for dinner.
From the evidence it appears that
the Bank of Ironton had only
been recently organized; the
relators are largely persons in
terested in this bank; that it's
capital stock was but $4,000, with
only half thereof paid up; its Of
ticers were unknown to the court;
it was running its business in the
back end Of a hardware store; it's
cashier was unknown to the coun-
ty court; his experience in bank
ing was unknown; he came from
another state and another busi-
ness, !. 81, the patent medicine
bushes; the other bank had been
the county depositary; it's officers
and their responsibility were
known to the county court; for
some years the public funds had

the Governor rises, salutes the
audience, and then tosses key

catches it there is more saluting,
but woe be unto him if he misses
it! The audience Kisses him out.

tanned.


Following is the opinion Of the
Supreme Court in the case of
Bank of Ironton against the Iron
County Court. After quoting
Judge Williams written opinion
heretofore published in this
paper), the Court says:
In this case we are met first
with the proposition that there
was an imperative duty upon the
part of the County Court to award
the contract to the highest and
best bidder for the county funds.
In other words it is claimed that
there is no discretion in the County
Court. This case is one of first
impression in this court. That is
to say, this particular statute has
not been a subject of construction
by this court, whatever we may
have said as to other statutes. The
Importance Of the question de-
mands thorough consideration
and this we have attempted to
give. We are not of opinion that
there was an imperative duty up
on the part of the County Court to
grant the contract to the party
making the. highest bid for the use
Of the county funds. We are Of
the opinion that there Is a dis
cretionary power in the county
court in determining the award to

been deposited there. Under these
circumstances counsel for the
Bank of Ironton was insisting that
the decision for the award be
rendered before the court ad-
journed for dinner. If investiga-
ton should have been made,
relators or the Bank of Ironton are
responsible for such failure. tits
hardly necessary to discuss this
question in view of the admissions
made by relators as to the good
faith of the county court. How
ever, even if the reasonable ex-
ercise of discretion be a vital
question in the case at bar, we
could not say that there had been
breach of such discretion under
the facts.
The Judgment is therefore af-
firmed. All concur.
