DAHL WINS INsUPREME COURT
Long Pending State Treasurer Suit
Won by Him

After several years of litigation,
former State Treasurer A. II. Dahl of
Westhy won his case in the supreme
court. The court reversed judgment
and held MIR. Dahl for costs and nomi-
nal damages only.
The action arose out of the delivery
Of S45, 900 securities by the state treas
urer. The action was started against
Mr.. Dahl and his bondsmen to collect
this amount. The lower court held
Dahl for damages amounting to many
thousands of dollars. The late deeis-
ion holds that Mr.. Dahl acted in good
faith in surrendering the securities
and that while he technically breach
ed his duty ia surrendering part of
the securities one day before he legal
~ could do so, the breach did not cause
the plaintiff any actual damage.
This litigation has been long and
expensive for Mr. Dahl. His acquaint-
ances re joice with him that the mat
ter is finely terminated in his favor.

building on Monday evening this week.
There was a large attendance and
much interest was taken in an inform

needs. Prof Heindel had covered
the black boards with school statis-
tics and all available wall SPADE with
placards and building plans. In
br) IF talk he presented the needs of
our schools and acquainted his audi
ence with conditions, the existence of
which came as a most,nnwelCome sur
prise to most of his hearers.
AS was to be expected, our citizens
responded quickly to the call for bet
ter school equipment and 10 was the
unanimous opinion of the assemblage,
taken by a rising vote that a build
ing should be providee'as soon as pos
sible that would provide additional
grade school rooms and large room
that would answer for gymnasium and
auditorium. The school board was
requested to take the necessary steps
to call legal school mesting and to
