ANOTHER CASE
DEMURRER or CITY SUSTAINED
IN CASE or A. a, WHITE TOWN.
SHIP CO.. IN MATTER OF FIRST
AVENUE PAvING-S1e,oOo IN.
VoLVEp.

In a decision fled today by Judge
Taylor of st. Cloud, the Judge sustaits
the demurrer of the city of Moorhead
in the case OF the A. A.. White Town
site co. against the municipality. This
action was begun to restrain the city
and its officers from collecting the as
sessment made for paving the west
end of First avenue north. The action
involved the whole Of the pavement
and the decision is signal victory
for City Attorney Rustad and r. H.
Peterson, assisting counsel.
The contention Of the plaintiffs was
that the contract between the city and
Contractor James Kennedy OF Fargo
was Illegal, as it exceeded the debt
limit allowed under the charter, ami
also alleged that the contract was aull
and void. The city demurred to the
complaint and upon arguments re-
sented, Judge Taylor has sustained
the city's demurrer which was TO the
effect that the plaintiffs had not stated
sufficient facts to constitute a cause
of action.
City Attorney Rustad received the
notice Of the decision filed, this morn
ing and he says that it is important
because it involved the whole OF the
First avenue north paving. When Mr..
Rustad assumed his Office as attorney
for the city there were six cases. all
of different natures. against the city,
altogether involving the sum of $4,000,
and up to date the city has been given
favorable decisions in all of them, one
or two of the cases were personal in
jury affairs.

Judge N. c. Young returned yes

tropic waters and the South American
coast which he made in company with
DR.. John Rindlaub and Dr.. e. NJ. Oar
row, both of this city, who are now
taking a delightful trip through the
lower American continent.
II met the two doctors on Canal
street in New Orleans during the

Forum representative today. 1--WE
took a most delightful trip to Costa
Rica from there and then went on to
Panama and down to Santa Marta or
the northern coast of South America.
Coming back to Panama, we separated
and DR.. Darrow and DR.. Rindlaub went

The action begun yesterday to en-
join the county superintendent and
others from holding a special election
called to be held tomorrow for the
purpose of voting on the proposed es-
adjustment of a consciousness s&nool
at Glyndon, was practically ended last
night when the promoters voluntarily
decided that their proceedings were
faulty and that they would have to
begin all over again and along other
lines. The defendants called UP Judge
Nye and after explanations asked if
it would be necessary to appear at the
hearing set for this afternoon and he
told them 1t would not. The opposi-
ton to the consolidation proposed was
not directly aimed at consolidation,
but 1t "a rather at the plan proposed
as it involved districts which would
have to transport pupils a distance OF
seven miles. G. B. Romkey, one OF
the opponents of the plan, suggested,

The Johnson Marley method of
transmitting cable and wireless mes
sages depends on the property of thin
metallic strips or reeds Of vibrating

but of remaining quiet in the pres

Combining a number of these reeds,
each with It's W coil. and having a
