Case of Alma City Treasurership
Up to Supreme Court
EX TREASURER HOLDS FUNDS
Robert W porter Takes Appeal From
Vrit of Mandamus Ordering Him
to Turn Cash Over to Jean McKee
Gardner Appointed Superintendent
Lincoln May 9 The question as
to whether or not a woman can hold
the office of city treasurer has been
put up to the state supreme court by
ex City Treasurer Robert Porter of
Alma A decision was once given by
that body in the case of Gertrude Jor
dan or Cherry county but in the case
which cons from Harlan county Mr
Porter contends that Jean McKee the
woman who was elected to that place
is not eligible to the office under the
constitution and the statutes
The woman in the case contends
that she is a resident taxpayer of
Alma meeting the Porter claim that
she is not an elector The question
however before the court and the one
which must be settled before the main
issue can be disposed of is whether
or not the woman is an elector Un
less she is in the meaning of the stat
utes it will be impossible for her to
retain her hold on the office The
woman was granted a writ of manda
mus from District Judge Dungan of
Hastings which compelled Porter to
turn over to her more than 3200 of
the city funds of Alma in addition to
the records and office furniture
Jean McKee the relator in the case
was the only candidate lor city treas
- iroc nvintnd rm tlln
lrmmlprl nnsspssinn of the office Mr
Robertb contended that she was in
eligible to the office and refused to
give pobsession The parties to the
suit instituted quo warranto proceed
ings in the district court to test the
eligibility of the relator and this suit
is still pending in that court In the
meantime Jean obtained possession
or one of the record books of the city
treasurers office Mr Porter says she
got it thiough her attorney R L
Keester who was then mayor In
the meantime Mr Poiter was served
with notice lrom citizens not to give
up the office This notice came from
John Everscn for himself and quali
fied electors of the city Mr Everson
now appears in the mandamus suit as
attorney for Mr Porter The latter
contended when the mandamus suit
was tried in the district couit that the
relator had not alleged that she was
an electoi and as she is a woman
she cannot be an elector and therefore
it not qualified to hold the office of
city treasurer
In the case of Gertrude Jordan from
Cherry county the supreme court held
that a woman may be eligible to the
office of county treasurer The opin
ion of the court was written by Judge
Rose Judge Letton concurred in the
conclusion but not in the reasoning
Judge Fawcett dissented and said he
could not agree in either the reason
ing or the conclusion and asserted
that neither under the constitution
nor the statutes are women given the
right to vote or hold office and under
the opinion of the court there is noth
ing to prevent a woman from being
elected judge of the supreme court or
governor of the state
Hull Appeals Bridge Suit
Joel Hull of Minden has appealed to
the slate suoieme court from a judg
ment of the district court enjoining
him from prosecuting an appeal from
the decision of the county board in
the matter cf the payment of nearly
2000 costs in a county bridge suit
For the cost of a bridge across the
Platte river between Kearney and Buf
falo counties each was levied half
Buffalo county paid its share but
later when the Kearney county board
was about to levy a tax and issue a
warrant to meet what the supreme
court had declared to De its obliga
tion Hull intervened and appealed
from the decision of the county board
J M Easterling of Buffalo county
then enjoined Hull from prosecuting
the appeal through Judge Duncan
and it is from this that the Kearney
county man now appeals

Green at least once
The afternoon game was much
harder fought but was marred by
wrangling with the umpire Prime

been closer He allowed only 3 safe
hits one a three bagger by Kennedy

been benefitted by the effort to es
tablish an agricultural school in
southwest Nebraska Tha school is
the thing and while the benefits will
come slower to the community which
lails to land the college the benefits
will nevertheless be far reaching and
southwest Nebraska will be much the
gainer no matter where the school
is located It takes courage and
takes time and money to do what the
Commercial club cf Holdrege did for
this section of the state and we are
confident that credit will ultimately
be given where it is due Holdrege
