To Vote on Local Option

It is now certain that the people or this county will be given chance to say by their votes whether or not they want the return of the open saloon. Judge Burke has issued the official call for the local option election to be held In this county and has fixed the date for hold ing same on May 20.
 The call for the local option election has been expected for the past several days. 1t has for some time been known that sufficient names had been secured to the petition to warrant the call, and delay in issuing the official order for the election has been caused on account or the checking of names in the probate Judges office.
 If the election carries for saloons Gull man will have three and possibly club or two; Hanceville. the next largest town in the county, will have one saloon and possibly club, and under the construc- ton placed on the law by several here it Is said that one or two of the country towns in the county may get an open saloon by providing police protection in them. This, however, remains to be seen. Very little has been said of the cleo tion since the date for holding 1t has been fixed, and fl is expected that it will be quiet.

Libel CASE
Interesting
Defendants Fail TO Show Court
Patterson Grated bur-
leigh County

One of the most interesting as well
as the most amusing trials ever held
in the Burleigh county court room
commenced Monday afternoon at
2:3O o'clock in which l.. Il. Opdyke
and F. E. Packard are charged with
criminal libel with E. G. Patterson
as the prosecuting witness. 1t will
be remembered that on or about June
goth the defendants charged E. G..
Patterson with grating from the
county funds.
The circumstances thai surround
the case are amusing. About an hour
before the case was called to trial
the defendants were in the court
room Jogging with many of the inter-
ested spectators, stating what an easy
matter it would be to prove that Pat
terson was gully of grating, but
Judging from the testimony that they
have so far presented they will find
it difficult proposition to prove their
allegations. The testimony that they
so far have produced is so ridiculous
that anyone who did not know the
first principal OF law would not say
that Patterson grated from the coun-
ty funds. For instance the defendants
endeavOred to convince the court that
it was Illegal for Patterson to charge
the county with ten cents when he
made the trip from the Mckenzie no.
tel to the court house and return.
Now any lawyer of ability should
know that commissioner has the
privilege of taxing up the mileage
when he attends any business in con-
nection with his official duties. The
plain facts of the case are that Pat
terson should have more money COM
ing from the county. On number of
warrants he did not charge the coun-
ty with mileage. Another point on
which the defence has fallen down is
of more amusing nature than the
one just mentioned. They tried to
convince the court that it was illegal
for Patterson to charge the county
win days work when he was only
busy a few hours. The law provides
that the commissioners shall receive
a days salary no matter matter how
long they worked.
From the testimony that has been
presented by the defense, the only
thing that they have proven of any
consequence is that Patterson was
not an excellent book-keeper. They
aver that when he made out us ILLS
they should have been ltemized, but
the law does not require this, so that
Is not grating. The outlook for the
defendants is not as bright as they
thought and the important points
which they thought would prove that
Patterson has grated to county are
bearing no result upon thecase.
George Bangs of Grand Forks, VINO
is prosecuting the case for the state,
has the defendants on the run and is
blocking them at every turn. He has
shown the court where it is not il
legal to charge up mileage and to
charge for full days work when
only a few hours were put in. The.
case is growing more interesting and
a are anxiously awaiting to see what
the next move of the defense will be.
