the County Commissioners, being an
appeal from the decision of the Board
of County Commissioners, and also an
action of Ward County against E. G.
I, Warren for the repayment of certain
monies alleged to have been over
rawn by the defendant and
Whereas both of these actions are
on for trial at the coming term of the
district court, and
4 Whereas a term OF court opens in
McHenry county on the same day as
the term opens in Ward County and
Ward County has several cases to be
tried during the McHenry County
term, and
Whereas this will occupy the time
of the states attorney and his assis-
tant for considerable period and
Whereas it appears from the exami-
nation of E. G. Warren as an adverse
party before trial that the office of the
county superintendent does not con-
tain data as to the route travelled in
visiting the schools of the county and
that the calling of many other wit
!. nesses thereby becomes necessary and
J more work required for the prepare
ton of the case,
4 Now, therefore, be it resolved that
: the Judge of the District Court of the
Eighth Judicial District be requested
to appoint special assistant to assist
the States Attorney in the prepare
tiion and trial of the above entitled
cases.
