Head Matter:
ATTORNEY GENERAL vs. BOARD OF COUNTY CANVASSERS (Iron),
64 M., 607.

Opinion:
To compel respondents to meet and canvass the votes cast for the establishment of a county seat.
Granted January 27, 1887.
The Board adjourned without canvassing the votes, claiming that no legal election was held. The answer alleges that the Board having met and adjourned, had gone out of office, and had no further function; that the proceeding is a political one, not involving judicial questions, and that the court has no jurisdiction in the premises, and that no valid election was held.
