CASE Court Holds that Chas. J. Heen of Dunn Center Was Not an Embezzlet An appeal by several taxpayers to: | prevent the erection of a jail, record vault and a building intended © to serve as a courthouse for Sioux! county at Ft. Yates was dismissed | in a decision handed down by the supreme court today. The action was instituted’ as a part of{the county seat fight in Sioux county, wherein Selfridge seeks to take the cqunty ‘seat away; from Ft. Yates. The case was before the, supreme, ‘court on appeal from District Judge | Pugh, who is affirmed. The case was brought by L. P. Lorentzen on j behalf of himself and others against ithe county commissioners of Sioux county, the auditor and treasurer. | The commissioners had created a) fund and entered into a contract for | construction of the building to serve as a courthouse at Ft. Yates, the | quarters previously used being held unsatisfactory. Several motions were . heard before Judges Pugh and Lemb- ike and a trial was held at Ft. Yates | August 23, 1921. Judge Pugh made jan order for judgment dismissing the restraining action against the com- missioners. The work on the new building con- tinued and it is now said to be about complete. Judge Grace, writing the opinion, said that since the work was pre- xumably completed the question be- | fore the court was a moot question. “It is very clear in this case that the plaintiff has been dilatory in taking and perfecting his appeal,” | said Judge Grace. “Laches, in a pub- jlic matter of this character, is rare- jly ever justifiable, and is seldom viewed with leniency. As we view the matter, so far as this injunctional proceeding is concerned the ques- j tions presented. or intended to be [presented through. it have become! moot, that ‘is, thé’ situation ‘has be- ;come such that any relief intended to be procured by permanent injunc- | tion is not’ now available for the} |reasons we have above given.

It was esti-; mated by the company that the greater amount of building activity would ‘be in the northwest and the northeast sections of the city. The forecast which was based on; average conditions during the pastj 80 years showed business on an in-| cline this year,’ and steadily improv- | ing through 1928 and 1924, the peak reached in 1924 and a gradual decline ; begun in 1925 and continuing until the end of that 'yedr when normalcy would be established. | In 1926 it was estimated that. conditions would fall a little below normal until the lat- ter part of the year when they would become steady unless some unfor- seen condition should cause a fluc- tuation. How It Is Figured “Telephone requirements are based entirely on the number of stations, or telephones, which will be added during the next:five years. This es- timate and forecast is dependent on many conditions:and probably the most important of these is the fore- cast of general business conditions. “Every business is dependent more or less on other businesses and the telephone business is. probably more dependent on general business condi- tions than any other one business. This means that in order to forecast! the development of the telephone business in Bismarck, it was’ abso-! lutely essential to forecast what the general business conditions would | be.

Part of the books were missig in, boxes from ship. A book for another precinct was located last night. Lack of familiarity of many elec- tion officials with the requirements caused an unusual situation in Bur- leigh county. Some of the precincts failed to make returns to the county auditor separate from the ballot box- es, as it provided, and this necessi- tated a wait until the official boxes could be opened.

Indications are not lacking, how- ever, that Michael Collins ‘and his colleagues will need all the support they can get to put down the re- maining resistence which, according to reports; from some, correspondents in Dublin, is, of importance here. These writers say the strength of the dissentionists in the South and Southeast is greater than has been supposed and declare the task of downing this opposition is likely to be slow and costly. In Cork county and parts of the adjacent territory, Republicans are reported to have the field to themselves and to be engag- ed in elaborate preparations to resist any attempt against them by the Free State forces. It is predicted that the provisional government will need to enroll sol- diers to the full strength allowed un- der the Anglo-Irish treaty and will then have none to many for the job of rounding up the guerrilla bands acting under orders of the Republi- can headquarters. * The arrival in Cork harbor last night of a small squadron of British warships lends additional color to these reports, as it is believed the vessels were sent in anticipation of serious trouble in that district and possible attacks on the British naval station there. Republican headquarters at Mal- low is issuing ly bulletins, claim- ing the irregulars are holding large areas and making rapid progress in several drections but there are no means of sifting these or other re- ports from the South and Southeast, owing to the difficulties of communi- cation. This applies also to reports from practically all the provincial areas. The public is still kept guessing as to the whereabouts of Eamon De Valera.
