Gronna Denies Using In.
fluence.

fluenCe.
Senator Gronna was accused
of being mixed up in the Cowan
case but the following dispatch
cleared him of any charges of
using his influence:
Washington, April 26.-Sena-
tor Gronna's attention was called
to a statement credited to him In
connection with the case Of Judge
Cowan. In reply he said: The
only statement or comment that
l have ever made to any member
of the North Dakota state senate.
in reference to the Cowan case
is the following:
Il understand that the senate
is to be called together again to
sit as a court in the Cowan case.
Haying had some experience in
cases of this kind l know how
any one who is to sit az a Judge
looks at outside interference,
and it is certainly not my inten.
ton to try to influence anyone
who has to decide this case. HE
MUST DO so UPON THE EVIDENCE
IN THE CASE AND NOTHING ELSE.
The newspapers have said things
in the Cowan case which I know
are not true. Judge Oowan has
for years fought for progressive
legislation, In his decisions he
has been fair but he has not fav
ored the corporations.
This was included in a letter
to a member of the senate wht
wrote me in regard to a number
of matters. l have made no 70
ference to the case in any other
letter, either to him or to any
other senator"
The Hope pioneer. [volume] (Hope, N.D.) 1882-1964, 1911-05-11

The Cowan trial il over and the
Judge il cleared, in the eyes Of
the state, of any of the charges
brought against him. The SEN
ate heard the evidence and more
than = majority, on all ballots,
declared for acquittal. That
part of the case is settled and
there is nothing more to be said
on the matter. However the
people will have a chance at the
next election to decide whether
or not they approved of the &C
tions of certain Senators in the
case. We are very glad at this
time to express approval of the
manner in which our Senator
from this district conducted him
self during the trial, and his
vote shows that he had consid-
cred the evidence before him on
every charge. He also voted, at
all times, to admit any evidence
that might have a bearing on the
case. We are sorry that all dis
tricts were not as we'll repre-
sented.

X. u. Fighting Army Worm.

Calls from eight different places in
Kansas came to the University of Kan

pert advice in resisting the ravages
of the army worm which has just made
its appearance in the state. The sit

the University has sent an expert into
the field to direct the measures for
discriminating the pest. Using heavy
roller on the young wheat attacked by
the worm is the method most highly
recommended. 1t destroys the worms

wheat. The University expert is now

Nation Sues For Fees Due Him.

WALNUT SdCo SSo wv
Former State Auditor ]. NJ. Nation
has started mandamus proceedings In
the Supreme court against State Aud
itor w. E. Davis to compel him to al
low the payment of certain fees COL
lected by Nation when he held the or
flee. The suit is friendly one ana
is brought for the purpose OF deter
mining the legal status Of Nations
claim for $4,000.
The action involves an act Of the leg
islature and veto of Governor Stubbs.
When Nation retired from the office OF
auditor there was some question as 10
whether or not he was entitled to the
fees he had collected for filing certain
kinds of bonds. Fred S. Jackson, while
attorney general, had held that Nation
was entitled to the fees Instead of FOL
lowing that opinion and keeping the
money, Nation turned 1t over to the
state treasurer, then went before the
legislature to have the thing thrashed
cut.
The legislature passed bill carrying
an appropriation reimbursing Mr.. Ma
ton, but adding a note to the effect
that the money should not be paid to
Mr.. Nation until the courts had decd
ed that he was entitled to 1t by law
The legislature simply gave MIN the
authority to bring an action In the
supreme court to determine whether OF
not he was entitled to the money.
Governor Stubs vetoed the item car
rying the Nation appropriation, stat
ing that there would be plenty of time
for the legislature to appropriate the
money to Nation after the supreme
court had determined that he was en-
titled to it. In the petition filed re
Gently, Mr.. Nation assumes that the
veto message of the governor intended
that Nation should bring an action II
the court to determine whether or moi
he was entitled to the fees.
