""K- Benewi the Contest with Member of I the Board of Supervisor. KTDIATIOXS OF 0VEUCHAEQE3 Coanty Attorney aad Member of the Board larllaed to Make Light of Matter, bat Latter Wllllag to B investigated. Th rupture of the "entente cordlale" be tween H. V. Battey, cjerk of the district court, and th Board of Supervisor of Pottawattamla county, which occurred a year ago, has culminated In Mr. Battey, In a communication to County Attorney lies, asking th latter official If Chairman Felix Sett of th board ba not drawn mora pay and mileage than n wa entitled to under th statute. ; Mr. Battey' communication to th county attorney follow: Tli maximum compensation for sess'on service for l!li, under th law, would b Af ty - day at $4 per day, or 1300, leaving .1.4.70 tor mileage in attending fourteen session of th board, or 112.47 per resalnn. which at I cent per mile would Indicate that Hit miles were traveled by him In at tending eaih session, or I'-'tH mile each way, alrrost the entire circumference of this county. For the year 1906, after deducting the statutory allowance for sess-nn iav. fifty days at $4 each, or (200, thnre would re main too for mileage In attending ft ten session, or I17.44H per session, whlrh at 5 cent per mile would ind'ote that 344 mllea were traveled' In attending each ses sion, or 173 miles each way, almost one half th d'tance across the state of low. In addition, at the January. lW. Sess'on of the board the following bill appears as Mb claim allowed: "Supervisors' meeting at sourl alley, 87." Matters In District Conrt. Judge Creen began In district court yes terday tho hearing In th suit brought by O. V.'. Atwood and other directors of the Cturr'l ElufTs Fish and Game Protective uesoclutlon aiu'nst tho Interstate Amuse ment company und others to restra'n the sale cf l!qi;nr within the enclosure at Lake Manawa. This rult was Instituted . last isummrr after the Fish and Game Protec tive assoc'atlon had felled to aecur from th street railway company a site for a prorosed clubhouse at the lake. Shortly after the filing of tho rult, the management of tho resort stopped selling liquor wl'.hln li,1 grounds, although several Independent saloon were running at full blast outside th enclosure. Th hearing In the damage u't of H. I Bonea against the Rock Island railway company waa completed and taken ur.der ndv'sement by Judge Green. I John Halle secured an order citing h's neighbor, William Horblit. for contempt of court. A controversy over 40-foot strip 1 of land on upper Harrison street has been long pending between the two men, and Halle allege that Horblit tor down one fence and erected another, both In violation of an order of court. Lottie Robinson wa granted a divorce m John A. Robinson on th ground of sroel and Inhuman treatment. Maud Wll lon wa granted a divorce .from John B. Wilson on atatutory ground. An examination of enrli bill of tho anii Beta for tho various sum allowed and drawn will ahow you that these bills were not Itemised, dated and sworn to as pro vided and required by ection 1,300 of th cod. 1 dirct jrour attention to these matter for the reason that It would appear that 1374.70 for a'xty days, and tm for flf'v nlne days, are out of proportion, at least prima facie. And it may l that r,m ex planation may be made of the apparent inconsistency. And I assume that no su pervisor would draw pav for either fifty nine or sixty day when th law limited him to fifty days' psy. I request of you, as county attorney, that you tak such steps aa are or may be necessary to determlre whether or not there has been any violation of the statute of Iowa in thla matter. The statute provide In counttea of th population of Pottawattami county that th supervisor shall recelv 14 per dlm for not etceedlng fifty day In on year. The. facta are. and they are admitted by th member of the bord, that th board waa In aession alxty day during 1906 and fifty-nine day in 1903, th business of the county neces'tatlng, so th mipervlsor In sist, the extra day. Why Mr. Eattey should pick Out th chairman of th. board In charge to the county attrrne Is best known to himself. The record how, and the member of the board readily admit th fact, that each supervisor received pay for alrty daya in 1906 and f'fty-nlne In 190. A to the "in- Biuuawuii umi iut7 iiaa onargea ana nad ) been paid excessive mileage Chairman 1 Seta and the other supervisors said it wa without foundation. The relatione between Mr. Battey and tho . Board of Supervisor hav baen ' strained since about election tlti last fall i when the question of Mr. Battey' right to draw ray for extra clerical help, which. It was alleged, ha did not employ, was ' raised by Chairman Beta and other mem bers of the board. Suit waa brought and th court's ruling wa unfavorable to Mr. i Battey. j Members of the Board of Supervisor when seen yexterday afternoon stated thev I would be only ' too pleased to have the grand Jury Investigate the charge mads ' by Mr. Battey. 1 County Attorney Hess, discussing the matter, said: "I believe that if the busi ness of th county demanded It, the super visors had a perfect right to continue in sslon longer than th tlm actua'ly desig nated in the statute and I believe any i court In the state would hold that they! were entitled to pay for ueh extra sea-' sions."

Th moat drastic new rule are taa follows: Spitting on th street or) In any public place anywher In th tata I absolutely prohibited. . . No. person afflicted with tuberculosis Is to be allowed to teach or attend school or be employed In any hotel, restaurant, de partment store, meat market, theater, rail road train, church or any plac where th . public gather. NO second hand clothtng, furniture or books can be fold without first having been thoroughly fumigated and disinfected under th direct supervision of a health officer. No child with Itch or vermin will b al lowed to attend any school and the teacher or principal la held responsible for such cases In the school.
