COUNTY CAPITAL
INVOLVES RIVALS
Indian Brothers on War Path
Over Location Of Seat of
County of Trip.

Dallas, S. D., Nov. 2-The county eat
fight in Trip county has reached the
injunction stage. Members of the Trip
county board of supervisors and Audi
tor Hamigan today were served with
a temporary restraining order issued by
Judge Robert Trip, OF Yankton, pro-
hibiting the issuance Of the Official
ballot with only the name Of Winner
as a county seat candidate. The hear
ing On the restraining order Is set for
November 2 at Yankton.
Two members Of the board, John
Weaver and Ed Colomb. are said to
have held a meeting at which the rec
ord was made that Winner is the only
town entitled to a place on the ballot,
thus placing Lamro n Colome at a
marked disadvantage. Auditor Ha!ts
han declined to consider this meeting
and action as legal and refused to GER
tify an official ballot In conformity
with this idea. 1t is claimed that the
ceeded to get out the official ballot on
their own motion. 1t is the claim of
Lamro and Colome boosters that all Of
the county seat applicants failed to get
applications with the board in time to
get on the ballot, the statute fixing a
limit OF 10 Gays pTlOT 10 SIeCllOH. OuuCE
this contention, the Colome and Lamro
advocates ask that all towns be left Off
the ballot and voters be required TO
write in the town of their choice. Feel
ing has been aroused in the fight in a
general way and this has been inten-
siied by the action Of the supervisors.
Ed Comb, one OF the board members,
concerned in this action, is a brother
of Chris Colomb, one Of the wealthiest
OF the Colome boosters. Both are In
dams. AS a result of the alleged double
cross from his brother, Chris Colomb is
CT the -ar path with the ayoWed in
tention of making flight medicine"
when he meets Supervisor Colomb, his
brother. From now until election day,
the county seat fight Will wax warm
regardless Of the form of the ballot.
The Lamro and Colome forces have
practically pooled issues in opposition
to Winner. The latter town, by virtue
OF it's location in the cente of the
county and being on the railroad X
tension, has been generally regarded as
tho future county seat The present
county seat, Lamro, is only two miles
from Winner and 1t is assumed that
Lamro will eventually have to sur
render on account OF being missed by
the railroad extension. More than q
dozen special automobile parties will
open an active anvas of Trip county
today, representing the three towns in
the county sea fight, and the activities
will not cease until the last tap has
been sounded on election day.

PEERS CHANGE VIEWS.
But Lord Brassey Stands by Old POSI-
ton on Budget.

London, January 1.-(Special. )-There
are number of liberal peers, including
the good Earl of Portsmouth, who have
deserted the present government owing
to their dislike of the budget, but they
have come out boldly and proclaimed
their change of view. The same cannot
be said of Lord Brassey, concerning
whom there is much acid comment Just
now.
Lord Brassey, who is in his seventy
fourth year, has long been one of the
staunchest supporters of the liberal
faith When the crisis came in the
House of Lords and every peer was ex-
peoted to vote one way or the other.
Lord Brassey deliberately declined to
register his vote. To make his desertion
from the ship of state more marked.
he has now left for South Africa, where
he will escape the most exciting and
probably the most bitterly fought gem
eral election in British history.
Normanhurst. the beautiful Sussex
home of Lord Brassey, has been the scene
for many years of notable Christmas
parties, but this year the fine old house
was empty It Is openly stated In polit-
zeal circles that Lord Brassey's excuses
for his desertion are that he cannot ac-
oept the land taxes in the budget, and.
that therefore he is a man without
party.
Lord Brassey was made a peer in 1885,
and is the Lord Warden of the Clinque
Ports. His only son, who married a
daughter Of the aged Marquis Of Aber-
gavonny, has no heir, and the peerage is
likely to become extinct. One of his
daughters was very unhappily married
to the Earl de la War;. whom she was
obliged to leave.
