DECISION AGAINST
COMMISSIONERS

Proceedings against the county COM
mlssloners of Hettinger county were
brought to head this week when
Governor Hanna handed down his de-
clslon removing them from office.
The charges were brought by the
states attorney Of Hettinger county,
V. II. Crane, and were upheld by the
governor.
On Wednesday Governor Hanna
handed down his decision which he
has had under consideration since No
vember 23rd, on which date all the
evidence was submitted to him and
the argument made and he announced
at that time he would hand down his
decision the following Monday. He
stated at the conclusion he would
submit the matter to the attorney
general and be governed by his views
as to what the law required.
At the time the charges were filed
the governor had appointed Hon.
Benton Baker Of Bismarck to take
and report the testimony. This was
done and Mr.. Baker reported: "That
the defendants had not while men,
bers of the board of county commits
sioners of Hettinger County presented
to said board for allowance any
claim or donc any other act with
corrupt or criminal intent" The
governor bases the conclusion justi-
flying removal mainly upon the
grounds that the county commission
ers refused to set aside a contingent
fund for the states attorney to hire
prohibition spotters:
Lawyers are practically unanimous
in the agreement that that provision
Of the statute is not mandatory but
only authorizes the commissioners to
set aside that amount of money if
they felt it necessary to hire people
outside Of the state to perform the
duties Che states attorney and sheriff
are supposed to perform. The at
torney general to whom the governor
submitted the legal question involved
does not agree with The governors
conclusions.
VIM. Colgrove is an old resident in
western North DakotA, man we'll
to do and an honest and upright and
conscientious citizen. The other two
commissioners, PGul F. Schmidt and
John Roger, are equally honorable,
upright men and have lived in the
community a great many years,
though not as long as Mr.. Colgrove.
An appeal was taken by the COM
missioners Immediately upon the
governor making his order and an in
junction has been issued by Judge w.
C. Crawford restraining the governor
from putting the machinery in mo-
tion to select commissioners to take
the place Of those removed. The mat
ter of the injunction will be heard
before Judge Crawford on December
23rd, and the trial of the case on
the appeal from Governor Hanna's de-
cision will be heard later in the dis
trict court of this county.

Nu.v.l Lakota's absent voters act
by w..4cn thousands of state voters
exp ~s.,cd .4eir preference in the re-
cent election, is unconstitutional be-
cause 1t destroys the secrecy of the
ballot, is the claim made by an elec-
tlu4i ~o..resu in Richland county. In
the aoscnt voters act, the plaintiff III
the action cites that provision OF the
consvluutlon which declares "all elec-
tiolls " the people shall be by secret
ballot" In cases where only single
absent voters ballot is cast in a pre-
cince the absent ballot, it is claimed,
is no longer a secret ballot because
the name of the voter has to be filed
and the ballot itself is of different
colored paper SO that it is easily dis
tingulsl1cd from the regular ballot.
The question will be threshed out in
the court within a short time.

Governor-elect Frazier has expess-
ed himself as being against having
an inaugural ball at the capital when
the new officers take up the reins of
government, a social event which has
been looked forward to each biennial
period since statehood. The "fish and
soup" colony will likely look else
where for the usual entertainment
and will be greatly disappointed that
this old-time custom i= dropped fer
the present.
