For some years, however, latterly, our people have been convinced of the necessity of di- versification fn their eraps and mode of culti- vation, and much experimenting has been done, Fruits, both large and small, truck gardening in nearly every line have met with minent success in many localities. Numbers of well directed efforts on these lines, and in many localities, have demon- strated the adaptability of our climate and soil to the growth and development of any fruits and vegetables that can be grown suc essfully north of troples, this to sz nothing of the state’s advantages in the rais- | ing of stack of all description, and the suc cessful cultivation of all farm products in quantities not only sufficlent for home con- | sumption, but for export as well, T take pleasure in especially commending to the inquirer of the west and northwest, for ny of the purposes named above, the land you are row cffering for sale, being nally familiar with the who in | which they lie.

The motion which argued cut out of e complaint fully 75 per cent of the charges, all of the specifications which was ey comprise charge the collection of excessive and ex orbitant fecs. The motion is based on sev- eral grounds. One of them, and the one on | which the most stress is laid, is that the costs which are charged as having been fllegally taxed were taxed in cases pending in the district court and as such were taxed unde the dircction of the district court and th Board of County Commissioners has no right or jurisdiction to retax them. Further re sons advanced are that the complaint has been brought by persons who have no interest therein; that it does not consist of charges of which the board can take cognizance, and Lat t ges ave not spe ifl: encugh in their present form to Justify an investiga- tion ~ Before the arguments were begun the question was again raised by Jenkins as to the advisability of employing a stenographer to take a verbatim report of the proceedings Jenkins was emphatically in favor of em ploying one, as was Sutton. When the propo- sition came up, however, it was defeated, the other commissioners voting nst it on the grounds that the expense would be too great LACKING IN JURISDICTION. One of Moores' attorneys then began the arguments on the motion by reciting briefly the reasons on which it was based. He said that all the reasons advanced were against the authority of the board to invest the charges objected to in the motion, aithough he admitted that the hoard had full power to try Moores on the charge of retaining fees and fines which he should have turned over to the county, or to witnesses. The chief ob Jection was that the majority of the specifica- tions referred to matters that are pending in the district court. Such specifications the board had emphaticallly no right to consider becauso the records of the clerk of the dis- trict court were the records of the district court and over them the district court had sola jurisdicion. Until the district court had found that the records were wrong or illegal they implied their truthfulness to all the world and could only be impeached by the court, By considering the charge the board would say that the records of the prt might be wrong, that the judgment of the court might be wrong, and by so dol arro- gate to the members a that did not belong to them. “The principle is based on the theory continued the lawyer, “that the district cour alone has the power fo retax any costs in any tried by the conrt. A motion to retax costs can at any time be made in the court and if they are found to be wrong the be made right in a very short time. again the supreme court has recognize this principle by refusing to take up the taxation of costs unless the question has comoe up in the district court. If the lower court refuses to retax the cosis, then an ap peal can be taken, but none of the speeifi tions allege that such has been the case, and therefore, even if the fees on their face g excassive, the board has no right to consider the charges.” A number of cases were cited in which the supreme court refused to consider the question of a retaxation of costs in a lower court wh a motion had not been filed in that court. Attorney for the complainans, by whose side County Clerk Sackett sat during the greater portion of the hearing, admitted that the board had no right to consider the retax ation of costs and said that he was surprised that the question had been raised, because the trial did vot hinge on thet point. The com- plainants did not charge that illegal fees had heen collected by mistake, but that Moores had charged and collected illegal fees know irgly, and for this misdemeanor in office his removal was asked. He knew that the records implied verity to all the world, and as such showed plainly on their face that Moores had charged exorbitant fees know- ngly and showced therefore that he was guilty of malfeasance and corruption, TRIAL SIMPLY FOR MISCONDUC attorney read the power rning statutes gov the board and a number of cases, by whicl he attempted to show that the board could try Moores for misconduct in office. He 11d that if it could not a clerk of the court might charge excessive fees in every case tl out his term of office and ney be brought to punisiment because his records although showing his illegal doings, were under the sole furisdiction of the district court, He illustrated his that in the same manner county treasurer might escape removal from office on the grounds that a complaint had never been filed against him in a justice court and then carried to the distriet court. H rgued that he wished it to be distinetly understood, however, that the complainants had no desire to retax costs in any case, but id desire to have Moores removed from offie in case that it was found that he had been charging excessive fees while he was in a position to know that he was doing so il- legally. The attorney for Moores held that Moores was the agent of the district court, and as such, the records that he made were not his but were those of the court. Therefore, the records implied absolute verity to every onc until changed by the district court, and conse- quently could not be changed by the hoard, or point by saying . embezzling the | ai rance of $30 worth of silverware, berifft W.
