RESTRAINING ORDER PERMANENT From Monday's Dai!y. Judge Begl-y handed down a de cision last Saturday af'ernoon in the case of Morris et al vs. the Director of School District Numoer 66. affirm ing the temporary order, in which he had granted to keep board from using money and incurring debt to build a school houe without the voters in the district fi'st giving au thority for such action. The school house which was burned down some months since, was sought tc be built again, was in the center of a section 29, where it was located seme forty years ago. after a fight in which there was much spirit shown. With the burning of the school house, the matter came up again as to re-location, and a vote to place the school house rn a main road v.-as defeated by a vote of 23 tc 21. Those who objected to the school house in the center of the section brought the matter of wte.l in the summer and isolation, alid bad water, but as the vote for re moval had been defeated, the opinion of the judge that the location be kept where it i3 unl-ss a majority rote says to change u, while on the question of spending the money without first appropriating it by vote. lie held the restraing order good. The district which lays ad jacent to Elmwood, would be gladly absorbed by that city, but this is ob jected to by the members of the dis trict board.
