CUSTER CASE IS UP
in COURT TODAY

The custer proceedings affecting
the bOaRd of county commissioners
did not begin as scheduled at the ap-
pointed time yesterday morning for
the reason that Judge Ensign, who
had been assigned to preside in the
district court, did not appear till the
afternoon, however the lawyers were
on hand, and so were the defendants
and numerous witnesses. In fact the
commissioners were arrivals early in
the week. Farmers generally and
other large taxpayers who are inter
ested in the outcome of the suits
were in town to see the beginning of
the hearing but could not remain
away from their pressing duties at
home when it was found the judge
had not arrived.
1t was ascertained that the line of
defense to be set up by the commits
sioners would be that certain road
work in the Lemhi valley cited as
basis of part of the lengthy COM
plant was done according to the
state highway specification and un-
der supervision of that body. To
meet this claim the plaintiffs had
subpoena issued for Secretary of
State Doughterty who is secretary
of tn commission.
1t was ascertained also that de-
PENDANTS would seek to introduce
testimony to show personal animos-
ity on the part of plaintiffs in bring
ing the action. These are mentioned
by plaintiffs side of the controversy
as being irrelevant to the issue, how
ever. and will be met, 1t is said, as
they arise.
Stevens & Clute, L. Z. Glennon
and A. c, Cherry represent plaintiffs
in the action. These are represen-
tAtive taxpayers-W. c. Smith, Fred
L, Viel, Thomas Kane, William B,
Pyett and Frank H. Havemann,
Senator Whiteomb and Former
Judge ], r, Boutwell, are counsel for
the commissioners.
The case in all likelihood will be
under way today. 1t is the most I'M
portant case on trial docket. Others
include the usual variety of criminal
and civil actions.
