He got an injunction from Circuit Judge Fortune restraining the mayor from ousting him, A big array of law- yers argued the case, which went ’ OF THE LAW successively before three different | judges in as many counties, The ‘tojunction was knocked out. Anticipating this action by a few hours, the Roberts faction got a similar injunction, technically dif: ferent, from the same judge. But the Lamb crowd went right ahead, violated the injunction, oust- ed Roberts and put in thelr own man, They also got an injunction from Superior Judge Cox enjoining Roberts from butting in. Judges of two courts were practically shaking injunctions in each other's faces, and the city had a disgraceful spec. tacle of the “majesty” of the law. Finally the mayor, his new engineer and the chief of police were fined $100 each for violating the second Fortune injunction. Bugene V.
