H PURCHASE TAKES OUSTER CASE TO COURT Files Notice of Appeal From Sorlie’s Order Removing Him From Office Mandan, N. D., Dec. 6.—(AP)— Appeal from the order of Governor A. G. Sorlie removing from office George H. Purchase, state’s attorney of Sioux county,for alleged malfeas- ance and drunkenness in office, was filed today with the clerk of court at Napoleon, Logan county, third judicial district. Attorney L. H. Connolly,. Mandan, counsel for Purchase, sets up 11 al- senna legal errors, on any one of which, he avers, the ruling of Gov- ernor Sorlie removing Purchase from office should be set aside by the courts. Signers of the original complaint against Purchase did not furnish in- demnity bonds; defendant was tried on charges set forth in an amended compalint not signed by five quali- fied electors of Sioux county; no copy of: the amended complaint was ever served upon the defendant or his counsel; the governor did not di- rect the attorney general to file a compalint or amended complaint, and neither the original nor amend- ed complaint was ever verified by the attorney general as required in removal: proceedings; no order was issued by the governor directing Charles L. Crum to hear the case on the amended complaint as well as the original comlaint. A Further technicalities on which the appeal is based continue to aver that; i No testimony was introduced or submitted to the commissioner that the signers of the original complaint were electors of Sioux county; Ar- thur Babcock, editor of the Fort Yates Pioneer, one of the signers, had not established’ residence in North Dakota, much less iv Sioux county; that no date of hearing on the commissioner’s report was set by Governor Sorlic on a dav “not more than 10 days from the filing of the report,” and that more than 10 days elapsed after the filing’ be- fore a date for hearing was fixed by the govern Religious Services To Be Held at Fort Religious services for Fort Lin- coln were arranged today by the Ministerial Association of Bismarck at a meeting at the Bismarck Hos- pital. 4 Lt. Col. Thomas W. Brown, com- manding the fort, stated the need of the post for religious work. Army chaplains, he said, ar. usually as- signed to posts, but none has as yet. been assigned Fort Lincoln and if one were, no quarters there are now available. It is, therefore, neces- ‘sary to appeal to the civilian minis- ters for assistance in the matter, Plans arranged provide for a member of the ministerial associa- tion to hold -ervices each Sunday af- ternoon at 2 o'cl.ck ° the fort gymnasium which Colonc: B-own Promised to arrange suitably for the purpose.
