FIGHT WILSON PLAN

tive Claude Kitchin, house floor lead
er, after an hours talk with President
Wilson said he would not support the
administration naval program.
When Mr. Kitchin came out of the
White House after the conference he
said:
Il had very pleasant conversation
with the president and all that | can
say is that ! regret very much that |
will be unable to support his naval
program"
Kitchin said the army phase of the
program had not been discussed. He
intimated he would center his fire
on the naval increases only.
Kitchin will not attempt to make
an acrimonious fight upon the defense
program. He said that he would
merely tell on the floor of the house
why he could not stand behind the
president on the naval question.

will be of the minority | am very
sorry. indeed. that | do not feel that

KITCHENER GONE TO INDIA?
Unrest There Said to Be Cause OF
Mysterious Trip.

Washington, Nov. 10.-Earl Kitch.
ener's ultimate mission during his
mysterious absence from the British
war Office is said by confidential in
formation received here to be India,
where. according to the same informa-
tion, British rule is confronted with
a more serious state of unrest than
generally has been known outside OF
British official circles.
Through the thick veil which the
british censorship has thrown about
the events in India and Egypt comes a
statement that Nawab, Sultan vi
Mulk. the Nizam of Hyderabad. one
of the most influential of the native
princes and stanch supporter of the
British, has been deposed by his peo-
pie.
This development, coming as one of
the climaxes to successive reports of
mutinies and unrest, many of which
have been substantiated and admitted
by the British government, is said to
be the leading reason for Earl Kitch-
ener's departure from England. which
has been shrouded with much secrecy.

LIMITS
TAX REBATES
COUNTY BOARDS ARE LIABLE
FOR ANY ALLOWANCES NOT
PROVIDED FOR BY STA!
TUIE.

Pierre, S. D.--That boards of coun-
ty commissioners are personally IL
able for tax rebates and compromises
other than those specifically provid-
ed for by statute is the apparent be-
lief of the state legal department on
its opinion to the state tax depart
ment on that issue. 1t is held speci-
fically that the only cases in which
rebates may be allowed is where the
property will not sell for the amount
OF taxes against it; or where 1t has
been offered for sale for two years
without takers; or where 1t has been
destroyed by fire, cyclone or other
cause. These are the only statutory
provisions under which rebates may
be allowed, and the cas- of Brink vs..
Damn ct al is cited, in which the SUI
preme court holds inferentially that
where rebates are allowed in any
other cases the commissioners grant
ing the same are personally liable
for such rebates.

JUDGMENT IN
FLAVIN CASE
PENNINGTON COUNTY Is ALLOW-

FORMER COUNTY TREAS
URER.

Belle Fourche, S. D.-Judge
Hughes of Eft. Pierre, sitting for
Judge MCGEE of Rapid City who was
disqualified, render his decision
in the two cases brought by Penning-
ton county against George Flavin,
former county treasurer of Penning-
ton county for alleged shortages and
deficiencies in his two terms. The
county sued Flavin for 100000 on
the first term and $4,000 on the
second term but the court awarded
$500 in the first case and $4,000 in
the second. both of which amounts
are practically identical with the
amounts which the e~X-treasurer and
Lis bonding company offered as set
tlement.
This is the second trial of these
cases which attracted widespread at
tention and cost the county through
investigation of experts and attor-
neys fees, over $40, 900. 1t is claim

CONTEST NOW
UP TO COURT
OVER 200 BALLOTS CAST ON LII.
CENSE IN ABERDEEN ARE
UNDER DISPUTE.

Aberdeen, S. D.-The contest PRO-
coedings over the license question
proceeding in the state circuit court.
The recount of the ballots has been
completed, and the final result de-
ponds upon Judge Bouck's decision
regarding the ballots over which dis
putes have arisen. The original cleo
ton retlrns made the vote a tie,
there being cast 1886 votes for IL
cense and 1885 votes against license.
This defeated the license proposition
as the law requires that there must
be IA majority for license. The saloon
men contested on the ground that a
number OF license votes we're thrown
out for one reason or another.
The recount of the ballots in court
shows that a total Of 2,74O ballots
were cast OF tho license proposition.
OF these there are 1,245 for license
which are undisputed, and 1881
against license which are undfsputed.
Then there are Ill ballots voted for
license which the attorneys for the
opponents to license claim should not
be counted, on account of various
irregularities, such as the ballots not
being marked In the right place, the
ballots not bearing the official stamp
or some other irregularity. Similarly.
there are los ballots which were cast
against license to which the attor-
neys for the liquor dealers object on
the ground of irr%egularity. In addi-
ton, there were twenty-five blank
or spoiled ballots which counted for
either side.
II the court should admit all the
disputed ballots on both sides, the
vote for license would stand 1856,
while the vote against would stand
1859, giving a majority of three
against license. Dozens of objections
have been made on both sides against
the counting OF disputed ballots, and
the matter will be decided by the
court as the contest proceeds. If all
the disputed ballots should be thrown
out, on both sides, the no license side
would have a majority of 6.
