recorder for the past four yeas and
rFo was elected by the famers on
- League ticket three times, but
rbo lately has been involved in some
notorious manipulations of fee mon
rs and whose husband stole S21OO
while acting as her deputy from the
tsyDavers of this county,, is still re-
fasing to draw legal warrants for sal
aries and claims which have been
passed bv the county commissioners.
REFUSES TO
PERFORM
HER DUTIES
Her duties as Clerk and Recorder
ae ministerial and she must draw
and sign legal warrants upon claims
passed By the County Commissioners,
but her contempt for law and duty
has become So obvious that by merely
insisting that her daughter shall be
her deputy, she attempts to force the
county government into a state Of
chaos 6y arbitraly refusing to per
form her ministerial duties and sign
the warrants as is required by law.
CONFER FAILS
TO ACT
More than two months ago, Rodney
Salisbury brought mandamus pro-
ceedings against her so that he could
secure his warrants for the necessary
expenses and salaries due his office,
which are obviously needed, IN or
aar 70 maintain law and order in the
county, but Judge Conner has never
rendered a decision in the matter,
thereby allowing a ministerial county
oLlcer to sabotage the Office of the
SlfnlT to the detriment of all the tax
PAYERS IN the county and to the detri-
Hent to law enforcement. 1t is high
une That a change occur in the
county government and next January
lIs1, this whole bunch of political sa-
ooJagers will be ousted from office,
Aanks to the staunch and consistent
support given to the farmer-labor
.ofces m the last election by the cleo
.ois IN Sheridan County.
