TO VOTE ON COURT TERN.

The people of Wright county will
have the opportunity to decide
whether they want two terms of
circuit court held at Mountain Grove
following a report from the house
judiciary committee.
The committee has reported out
the measure introduced by Repres-
entative Evans of Wright county to
divide the court terms between
H~artville, the county seat and Noun
tain Grove.
An amendment was added to the
bill providing that it shall be sub
mitted to a referendum of the voters
of Wright county in 1920. before it
shall become a law.
AS a result of the proposed meas-
ure, there has been the keenest riv-
airy between the people of Hartville
where all of the court terms are now
held. and the citizens OF Mountain
Grove, Under Evans bill two terms
of court will be held each year in
each of the towns.
Large delegations went to Jeffer-
son City from both Hartville and
Mountain Grove to work for and
against the bill. The people of
Hartville argued that there was no
need for additional terms of court,
and besides Mountain Grove is in an
extreme corner of the county.
The Mountain Grove boosters ans
wered that Hartville was rs miles
from a railroad and was not aces
sible to persons wanting to get into
court. They declared that frequent
ly the creek would be flooded be-
tween Mountain Grove and Hartvilie
and that they would be unable to get
into the county seat in time for the
court terms-Springield Leader
