JUDGE SMITH GRANTS MANDAMUS WRI1
(luratlnii of Wlm In Untitled to Hold
Oilier nn Treasurer of Independ
ent .School District of
Council llliifTn.
Thn Mntrnvursv hetween W. R. Havor-
stock and George S. Davis over the question
whleti In entitled to hold olllco as treasurer
of the Independent School District of Coun
cil Hluffs will now have to bo arbitrated by
tho courts. Tho petition was filed lato lout
evening. Tho writ Issued by Judgo Smith
requlros Davis to appear Saturday, April
21, and show cause.
In adopting this courso of action Instead
of commencing quo warranto proceedings,
tho nttorneys for Haverstock dcslro to elim
inate tho question of tho contest over his
election. Thoy take tho grounds that Hav
eretock being tho duly declared elected
treasurer and that having filed hla bond
nnd qualified the Inltlatlvo In tho contest
over tho election Bhoutd bo takon by tho
other sldo. This, however, they claim ho Is
barred f,rom doing now as tlmo specified by
law for contesting tho election, which is
twenty days, has expired. Havcrstock's at
torneys now claim that If Bavin had In
tended to contest the election of Haver
stock that ho should have dono so within
tho tlmo prescribed by tho law nnd there
fore that element of tho controversy can
not now bo entertained. Davis, on tho other
hand, contends that ho acted within tho
tlmo allowed by law as ho protested ngalnst
Haverstock being declared treasurer tho
nleht that the Hoard of Education mado an
ofllclal canvass of tho election returns.
At first tho attorneys for Haverstock de
ri,iH in hrinc a elvll action against Davis
and hl3 bondsmen to recover tho school
funds In hla noososslon together with 6 por
cent from tho dato that Haverstock quali
fied ns treasurer. This was, however, aban
doned for tho present and mandamus pro
ceedings decided on. A civil action against
tinvls nnd his bondsmen would complicate
matters somewhat, as with one or two ex
ceptions tho sureties on Davis' bond aro the
same as on Havcrstock's, and such a suit
would rnsult in Haverstock practically
suing his own bondsmen. Ernest E. Hart,
the banker, who Is on both bonds, notified
nnvlH ve.stordav that ho desired to with
draw as surety on his bond. Tho amount of
school funds In Davis' possession is about
$68,000, being mostly tho proceeds of tho
t.nnrta Iwuied for the new High school build
ing. The amount of the first half of the
venr'n tax collections Is etlll In tho hands
nf Hniintv Treasurer Arnd. he having re
fused to comply with the demand of Davis
that It ho turned over to him.
Tinvln contents Haverstock b right to tho
trnnmrvahln on the Erounds that there was
an Irregularity in tho returns from the
Fourth voting precinct nnd that tho voto
cast In thlB precinct should be thrown out.
If this was dono Davis would have a ma
jority of eeventy-nlno votes over Haver
stock. Auction at the court house, April 23, 10
