Tin1 ro mains of Mr

gufford ii. lo;:c ULLinif luuUiiUlulLiil In the cause of Fred Fetter aain -.t William Fitzgerald and otlit r-; on .1 uly 21, 1919, the inspectors and judges of the various precincts were enjoined ty the Court from destroying or in any manner interfering with the ballots and records of the special County Seat election of July i.-', 1919. In the cause of Fred Fetter against the Board of Commhaioners-, the Auditor and Clerk, on July i!", Pib) the defendants were restrained by the Court from doing aDy act toward relocation of the county seat, or from mutilating, destroying or concealiDg any of the poll book?, tally sheets, papers or records of said Special election uutil notice and further order of the court. Now on August 5th, an extra order was put on record and consented by both Hides that the Clerk could certify the vole to the Auditor which the clerk did. '1 his is the only act the cleth could do toward relocation of the County Seat. ISut in the order of July 2"th the elerk and other defendants were not to mutilate, destroy or conceal any of the poll boobs, tally sheeta, parers or rcoiels of said Special election. Is not Clifford 11. Long now concealing the ballots from the recount Commission? Yes, instead of this order of July 25, 1919 conflicting with the order of August 8, 1919, it is in perf. ct harmony, and the elerk is violating the order of J uly 25, 1919 ssweli as tlie order for recount August S, 1919. Now beside the cause of (Jan et Pranliaiii against the Baid of Commissioned s, the Auditor and Clerk, theie is another suit, Uarret Ilranham agiiust Olifl'oid H. l.on', Cbik, set for heoiiu Saturday August ;;otn 1919 restraining the 'lerk from inferferintr with

the recount of the Special election ballots of July 22nd 191a. So anyone leading the order of Jul3T 25th and August Sth 19l9 can readily see whtieiu Mr. i.ong in mistaken. In fact it is readily seen that lie not only vioUteel the order of July tiih but also violated the order of J uly 25, 1 919. What other Clerk in the State of Indiana ever s-o disregaided an outer from his own court? Is Mr. Cong v, i ;- er than the thousands of other clerks o f Indiana ? The order of August sth is a ministerial one. , ' In a i onteinpt ease the inquiry is limited to the isues. Incidental or collateral questions cannot be considered or delermiued. Thus where the alleged contempt consists in failure to comply with the terms of a court order or decree, inquiry into the merits of the order or decree will not be allowed" So it is not for the Clerk of the Cotut to say what orders he will obey and what ones he will not obey. Now Mr. Long or his bondsmen may yet have to pay the extra expense because of the delay of the recount f ballots, which will amount, to about 15.00 to SS25 00 per day. POETICAL STIfMlI Some of the people of Jennings County have been curious to know what became of those barrels of whisky which fell into the hands of the Sheriff some months ago; and whether the last or it was used dnnng lha late election . Last week's poetical effusion, a printed in the North Vernon Sun wnd Plain Dealer, over the said Sheriff's signature, would indicate that some of the stut! U still on hand. To use a spotting man's way of expressing tlie matter, it was necessary for a man to bs ''three sheets m the wind," to make him capable of writing such "doggerel," and being proud o! it. Better try the eiJeet of the stud on the other "Jim" looaeu up his tongue and pen, and see if he does not win out over "Dandy Jim"' in writing poetry, as well as, on other lines. We anxiously await the result of the contest.
