III OlitnlnliiK n Writ AKnlnxt
.Mr, KiikIkii.
The alleged unwarranted Interference of
Principal Ensign In the annual meeting and
election of the Athletic association of the
High school yesterday morning led Albert
Treyncr, ono of the recently suspended
pupils, through bis ftther, Postmaster
Treynor, to secure from the superior court
a writ of Injunction restraining Principal
Ensign from Interfering with the cadet
election held yesterday afternoon. This
appeal to the courts was another chapti r
in iufl nirauieti reiiiiinnn wnirn nnvn pi Kipn
-- 7 7 1
for some time past between the principal
land n number of the boys at the High
school.
Following the usual custom the annual
meetings and elections of the High school
Athletic association and cadets are held
on the third day of commencement week.
The Athletic association meeting was colled
for yesterday morning and the cadet clec
tlon for the afternoon. Principal Knslgn
was present when the raoetlng of the
Athletic association opened and Informed
Albert Treynor and .lames Macrae, two of
tho pupils recently suspended, that they
could not take part In tho proceedings.
In explanation he said that the constitution
of tho association rcnulrcd that all the
r":
which, owing to their suspension, they were
not. The boys left the assembly room and
font, nn ..,. .., i ..-.n.
loOK n0 urincr part in tno proceedings.
When the association proceeded to elect
s Its president Charles Campbell, another
ullponiled Rtm,on(( Prlncpal 'Bnsl8n aRan
Protested on the grounds that Campbell
was Ineligible, having been suspended, and
wn. nnt therefore a m..,,, (, m-i,
"I01' member of the High
school.
Amend (lie Cnnnhliit Ion.
Tho boys decided to overcome the prin
cipal's protests by amending the constitu
tion so as to mako tho membership not only
students of the High school but those who
expected to become such nt tho next school
year. Principal Entlgn called attention to
the fact that, according to parliamentary
rules tho constitution could not be amendei
at one meeting; that the proposed amend
ment would have to lay over, under the
rules, until the next meeting. To meet
this phase of the question the association
promptly adjourned, the meeting and then
as promptly reconvened, when the amend
ment was unanimously carried. The elec
tion of officers was then proceeded with.
It was anticipated that Principal Ensign
would raise similar objections at the cadet
election and Albert Treynor. through his
father, Postmaster Treynor, went before
Judge Aylesworth of the superior court,
whpro ho secured a temporary Injunction
restraining Principal Ensign from Inter
fering. Tho writ was Issued on a bond In
the sum of $50, being filed by young
Treynor with his fnther an'd1 F. U Reed,
clerk of the district court, as sureties.
Petition tn (he Court.
The petition, nfter reciting that young
Treynor was a member of tho High school
cadets of Council Bluffs, sets forth:
That said organization Is one connected
with the public schools of snld city for tho
mutual training of Its members.
Thnt the government of said military
company Is entirely within tho control of
officers selected solely by tho members of
snld organization.
That said organization Is nbout to hold
Its regular annual meeting for tho election
of Its officers for the ensuing year, and tho
said defendant, who Is principal of the
High school In this city, because of his
connection with said school threatens to
nnd Is about tn Interfere with tho action
of tho members of snld organization In the
selection of its officers nnd the govern
ment of tho same, and particularly threat
ens and Is about to Interfere with tho rights
und privileges of tho plaintiff In tho matter,
nnd threatens tr. and Is nbout to deprive
plnlntifT of any voice In the selection of tho
officers of snld company or tho govern
ment or control of the same.
That the Interference of snld defendant
with the rights of plaintiff as above set
forth Is unlawful and unwarranted, and
unless the said defendant Is restrained from
exorcising said Interference nnd pretended
control of said organization plaintiff will
suffer great and Irreparable Injury nnd for
which he has no redress In an notion at
law.
Therefore plaintiff prays that this court
Issuo n temnornrv writ nt liiliinrilnn
straining defendant fiom all Interference
with tho plnlntlff and members of said mil
itary organization In the selection of lis
officers nnd the government and control of
inn wime, nnu upon nmti nearlng that raid
Injunction bo mnde permanent and tho
plaintiff havo such other relief as In equity
seems Just and costs of suit,
The writ was Issued, but was not served.
rnntnifiNtrr IleseiiU Interference.
Postmaster Troyuor said he regretted
hnvlng been forced to adopt tho course, he
did. It was not Intended as t personal
matter on his part, but ho considered Prin
cipal Ensign's action as an unwarranted In
terference with the rights of the boys. He
said tho boys considered that they are now
In vacation nud not under control and that
In any case the officers they wcro about to
elect were to serve next year, when the
boys who were suspended will be permitted
to return to school.
iy sou," said Mr. Treynor, "was, In
fact, never suspended formally. Ho was
simply told to go home and Principal En
sis" nnnsoii assured mo that ho could re
turn to school next year and tnko his ex
aminations as usual. Mr, Ensign had no
right to Interfere with tho boys In tho Ath
letic association election and It was to pre
vent him doing so with the cadet election
that I secured the Injunction, I expressly
ordered, however, that tho writ bo not
served on Mr. Ensign unless necessary. I
am glad to say that at It turned out there
was no need to serve It."
Ilunril In liMllgiiiuit.
Members of the Board of Education wero
much exercised over tho course pursued
by Postmaster Treynor, believing that the
notoriety given tho affair would tend to In.
Juro the school. Thoy uphold Prlnolpal
Ensign and assert that he was not exceed
ing his authority. The pupils at tho High
school, they say. nre tinder the control nf
tho principal until the vacation begins,
wnicn win not be until Friday, While the
school term Is practically closed for tho
year the pupils will not be formally dis
missed until Friday. One of the
of he board suggested .the adoption of
turporsi punisnraent at the High school,
believing It to be the only remedy for the
spirit of Insubordination which has re
ceutly ruatilfested Itself.
Principal Ensign was not aware of the
Isiuanco of the writ of Iniunetlon Until
after tho cadet election was over and was
much surprised when he learned of tho
action taUn by Mr. rejiinr. ..He' declined

drome S. Wrlulil Wilt t'nll It for
Tuemlnj July illl.
(Jeorge S. Wright, chairman of the re
publican county central committee, an
nounced yesterday that he would call tho
county convention for Tuesday, July 23. He
had Intended to call It a week earlier but
for tho fact that tho Stato liar association
and the State Itowlng association will meet
In Council niuffs on July 16 and 17.
Tho present Intention Is In addition to
selecting delegates to attend tho stato con
vention to be held at Cedar Ilaplds on
August 7 to placo In nomination n county
ticket nt this convention. The naming of
a county ticket may. however, be deferred
until n later date, as some of the pros
pective candidates are opposed to such a
long campaign a's holding the convention
at such an early date would mean. They
argue that fourteen weeks of a campaign
would be too long and nro In favor of
holding the convention for naming a county
ticket some time In August or tho early
part of September.
A Judge of tho superior court has to bo
elected this fall. Under the new law nil
Judges of superior courts ahall be elected
at the last general election preceding the
expiration of the term of offlco of the
present Incumbent. Judge Aylesworth's
term will expire on April 1 next nnd, con
sequently, the election will have to take
placo this fall. Tho law Is somewhat am
biguous on tho matter and thcro Is n differ
ence of opinion an to whethor tho Judge
shall he elected by tho electors of the
county nt large or by the electors of this
city, as has been tho case heretofore. Prior
to thin year the Judge of tho superior court
has always been elected at the regular city
election nnd the mayor has Issued tho
certificate of election, The new law passod
by the twenty-elghth'general assbly-pro
vldes that the Board of County Supervisors
shnll Issue the certificate of election nnd
thnt nominations phall be certified to the
county nudltor.
County Auditor lnnea says he Is not
clear ns to the meaning of tho statute and
the opinion of the attorney general will
probably he obtained before tho time for
the convention.
The county ticket to be named this fall
Is candidates for treasurer, sheriff, super
intendent of schools, county surveyor nnd
two members of tho board of supervisors.
