LAYER APPEALS.
TO HIGH COURT
FOR new TRIAL
Man Convicted of Turtle Lake
Murder Asks Highest Court
To Give Him Trial

An apepal to the supreme court has
been taken by Henry Layer, serving
a life sentence for the murder of eight
people, from the decision of District
Judge Nuessle denying him trial by
jury. ....
Legal problems never before aris-
ing in North Dakota will be threshed
out in the highest state court in the
matter. Layer signed a confession
shortly after his arrest May 13, 1920,
in which he told of how he killed the
Jacob Wolf family and a chDre boy,
eight persons in all, pleaded guilty
before District Judge NuessIe and was
sentenced for life.
Layers attorney, Edward P. Kelly
of Darlington, urges that trial by
jury be ordered for him on the ground
Of newly discovered evidence, which
included the finding of two masks on
the farm. Judge Nuessle rejected the
plea for trial by jury on this ground.
Kelly also alleges that authorities OBJ
tanned the confession under duress,
telling Layer that he must plead
guilty to escape mob violence.
Under law effective July 1, Layer
cannot be paroled from prison until
he has served at least half of his Life
expectancy.

DISTRICT DEBT
Limit of Indebtedness is Held
To Be 5 Per Cent Valuation

School districts having an indebted
ness above 5 percent of the assessed
valuation of the district cannot get
loans from the state board Of Yniver-
sity and school lands. under q ruling
by the attorney-generars office. nr,a
According to the opinion Of Assist
ant Attorney General Foster the con-
stitution provided that the limit of in
debtedness should be percent of the
valuation; an amendment provided an
additional percent could be created
by majority vote of the residents Of
the district. He says the supreme
court has held that the latter amend
ment is Of no effect without an enabl-
ing act of the legislature, and that.
therefore, the school district indebted
ness is limited to percent.

elections and voted an increase in
their indebtedness.
