IS ATTACKED Notice of Suit for Injunction Is Served by Taxpayers’ Attorney DEFENDANTS ANSWER Notice of commencement of a suit for injunction to restrain completion of or payment for berdge and culvert work now under way in Emmons county has been served upon the county commissioner, the auditor, treasurer and B. H. Tong, county highway engineer, by Herman Back- haus and R. R. Hogue, Emmons coun- ty taxpayers, who allege irregulari- ties in the letting of the contracts. The suit followed retention of a firm of Fargo lawyers (Lawrence, Murphy and Niles), to investigate the bridge work. ) Scott Cameron of Bismarck, attor- ney for the defendants, announced today that the defendants. would de- mand an early hearing and desired it to be held in Linton, Emmons coun- ty, where taxpayers could hear the evidence in the case.

The law provides in one paragraph that although poliitcat sub-divisions must limit taxes raiséd to one-third j the amount levied in 1918, 1919 and 1920 school distriets may increase the levy a total of 30 per cent be- yond this limitation, The next sen- tence provides that political sub-di- visions may increase the tax levy 25 per cent beyond the limitation. upon vote of the people. “tue court holds that the last sentence applied also to school districts although they are not specifically named, It was also consended by J. \A. Kramer, auditor o! Kamsey county and appellant in the case, that the school board had no; certified the in- creaged tax levy to the auditor with- in the time provided by a previous law, which was July 20. The court held that since in tne tax limitation law there was no time designated within which the increased amount to be raised must be certified to the county auditor and:stnce in this case it was certified in time for him to. spread upon .the books, the old law a to time did not “pply. The suit originated after voters of Devils Lake had approved the school board’s proposal for an increase of $17,000 in the tax levy, which the court found to be within the 25. per cent increase permitted. The county auditor refused to extend the taxes, and was defeated i a mandamus ac- tion in district court and appealed. 8 MINES ARE NOW ACTIVE Minot, N.
