GRANT POLITICAL
FIGHT CONTINUES
Sheriff Henry Hertz Is organiz'
ing Inspection of Com
mission Records

Though Henry Hertz, Grant county
sheriff, suffered a setback yesterday
in his case against Charles r. Finch,
Grant county auditor. and A. F,
Fischer, chairman of the county COM
mission, to collect expense funds al
legged due him. he va continuing his
battle today, it was announced by his
attorney, James M. Hanley, Mandan.
Sheriff Hertz is organizing all in
spection of the records of the county
commission to seek irregularities, Mr..
Hanley said.
The sheriff yesterday lost a man.
damus action against the two Grant
county officials which he had institu-
ed in an attempt to force them to pay
him $448, which he alleged he had
coming. The action was dismissed in
Morton county district court by Judge
H. L. Berry.
Shortly before. the state bonding
department had refused the applica-
ton of the Grant county auditor for
payment of money on the bonds of
the sheriff. The auditor claimed that
Hertz had kept fees illegally. In re-
fusing the application. department
officials pointed out that the COM
missioners had approved payment of
all funds which the sheriff had COL
lected.
Hertz's mandamus proceedings were
dismissed yesterday upon motion of
Mr.. Hanley. Hertz claimed that some
of his bills had been approved form
ally by some Of the commissioners
but not by the commission meeting
as a body. It was learned that, Ger
tain commissioners later had with
drawn their approval and erased
their names. Mr.. Hanley said the
mandamus writ would not lie in view
of these circumstances.
Should Hertz find Irregularities in
the commissioners records which
would warrant their removal from
office, he plans to ask the governor
for an investigation aiming at their
removal, Mr. Hanley said this morn
ing.
Mr.. Hanley does not expect the
sheriff's investigation to be COM
pleted before another four or five
days, he said.

REP0R? GANDH HAS
MADE PEACE OFFER
London Hears Announcement Of
Big News Will Soon Be
Forthcoming

London, Aug. 19-R-Reports from
India that the Mahatma Gandhi had
offered peace in his letter to the
vceroy if Lord Irwin and the British
government will pledge dominion
status for India at the forthcoming
round table conference today aroused
deep interest in official quarters
where news of major Importance was
expected to be announced within "A
hours.
After the conferences Of last week
in the Yeroda jail ALTOONA the lead
er Of the civil disobedience forces in
India wrote . letter which was sup
posed to embody the terms upon
which he would consent to q cessation
Of the activities Of his volunteers.
It was pointed out today that II
reports as to the nature Of the Ma
hatma's peace offering were true they
must have emanated from q leak on
the part Of some interested party
since Gandhi's communication to the
viceroy was written in prison and was
to be delivered only today.
There was said to be q growing
feeling In exceptionally well-informed
quarters that "big news" from India
could not be long delayed. This was
taken to mean only the Gandhi letter
would be published with its assent o.
refusal. The possibility the letter
would contain announcement Of ces-
sation Of the homeopathic move
ment on the part Of the Nationalist
received some credence.

PENSION BILL
FOR AGED TO
BE ADVANCED
DeIuse, Eagles Head,
Pledges Move viii Be
Pushed in Legislature.

A bill designed to remove old men
and women from Indiana's poor
houses and lessen the burden on
taxpayers in caring for those no
longer able to earn living, is
pledged by Otto P. Deluse, Indian
apolis, to be the result of meeting
here Sunday of the old age pension
commission of the Indiana aerie,
FraternaI Order of Eagles, of which
he is chairman.
"Old age pension bills sponsored
by the Eagles are in effect in twelve
states" Deluse said. statistics show
that the pension system costs per
person a little more than half the
expense of poorhouse maintenance.
And, from a little more than half
the expense Of poorhouse mainten-
ance. And, from the humanitarian
standpoint, the poorhouse hasn't a
leg to stand on"
The bill will be introduced in the
1881 general assembly in January.
Reviewing the history of the old age
pension movement in Indiana,
started by the Eagles seven years
ago, Deluse declared that~t the COM
ing session of the legislature al
fords the best opportunity yet for
enactment of the legislation.
"At last the people of Indiana are
beginning to realize" he said, that
an institution which had its incep-
ton in England three centuries ago,
is out of place in modern life, with
its high ideals of humantarianism
and efficiency.
GAS to the first point, newspapers
of the state in the last few months
alone have revealed enough regard
ing conditions in poorhouses to con-
vince any fair minded person that
the poorhouse is inhuman.
1--WE can prove that Is cents of
each dollar appropriated for poor
houses goes for administrative ex-
pense; under the pension system,
the administrative cost is under IL
per cent.

NEWTON COURT
NOT RECOGNIZED
mo Such Circuit Exists
Leslie Declares.

Governor Harry c. Leslie has re-
fused to recognize Terrence B. Cum
ningham as judge of the seventy
ninth judicial circuit court because
no such circuit court exists" it was
announced today by L. o. Chasey,
secretary to the Governor.
This action is in line with the
Leslie policy Of opposition to the
creation of new courts, with more
Judges salaries to pay.
The seventy-ninth judicial district
was created by the 1929 legislature,
but the Governor did not sign the
bill, attempting a pocket veto" But
a similarly treated bill creating a
superior court in both Muncie and
Marion was held enacted without
the Governor signature by ruling OF
the supreme court.
Leslie holds that this action does
not apply to the seventy-ninth cir
cult in Newton county. Jasper and
Newton counties have been served
by the same circuit judge, who re-
fuses to function in Newton since
the election of Cunningham, it is
reported
Litigation may be necessary to
settle the matter.
