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
