ONE COUNTY WON BY

Michigan Supreme Court Or
derS Supervisors to Con-

News Times Special Service:
LANSING. Mich, Jan. Bingham
county "wets" were made the victors
in their contest with the board Of
supervisors. through a decision
handed down by the state supreme
court. The court declared that it is
very evident that the board Of super
visors had a duty TO perform. which
was not performed in this matter.
As interpreted by Dwight w. F.
Warner. one of the attorneys for the
saloon forces. the opinion means that
the Ingham supervisors. who refused
20 accept the petitions for a local
option election in April, will now be
compelled TO do so.
But while the courts ruling has
been generally interpreted 10 mean
the liquor men have won a point in
their fight in this county 20 put the
local option question to another vote.
the same decision. according to Grant
NJ. Hudson, president OF the Anti
Saloon league, is a victory for the
"drys" in four other counties. These
counties are Menominee, Mackinaw.
Manistee and Otsego, where boards
Of supervisors refused to entertain
dry petitions for April elections
In Ingham county, the conflict be-
tween the "wets" and the board OF
supervisors grew out of the board S
refusal TO accept the "wets' = petit
ton for a local option election in
April. The board, after first passing
favorably On the petitions. later re-
considered it's action. and refused the
petition, on the ground that the
names had not been posted a suffic-
lent length OF time with the county
clerk. The supreme court held. in
it's opinion today, that the petitions
had been filed a sufficient length of
time. This same point was made
against the dry petitions in the
other four counties where the issue
is up.

News Times Special Service;
TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Jan. g.
Cordial relations seem TO have been
restored between James Nj. Gossom,
the mayor and the Terre Haute city
council since the mayor discharged
his law-enforcing board of safety
and named one that does not seem
TO be averse to "tilting the lid"
When the city clerk reported at
the council meeting that Mayor
GOssom had returned without his
signature, a proposed ordinance
passed by the council recently, which
was intended TO license and regulate
pool and other games. the council
considerably struck it from the files.
There were other evidences that the
mayor is not at present the object Of
the councils bitterness.
other than electing Hugh Peck
Brannin president for the ensuing
year, and Charles +. Riede vice
president, the council transacted no
important business. A proposed
ordinance TO create a nonpartisan
police force was referred to the
committee on safety. 1t contem-
Plates the addition TO the present
force of a chief OF detectives, two
additional detectives and three pa
trolmen. at an estimated cost to the
city of $1,000 a year. An ordinance
appropriating this sum was also re-
felTed.
In view of the number of deaths
recently as the result of reckless
automobile driving, the council di-
rected the board of safety to see
that the speed and traffic ordin-
ance are enforced rigidly.
