Jefferson County In
junction Cases Dismist
The Jefferson county injunction
case has been dismissed. Judtfe
Bradshaw handed down his decision
lant Friday afternoon. The court
held, in part, that a citizen and tax
payer was not a proper party to
enjoin a public officer in a suit of
that kind. Only the state of Oregon
could do so, He therefore dis
missed the action. A notice of ap
peal to the supreme court was then
made by the plaintiff's attorneys.
The review case which was
brought by A. D. Russell attacking
the legality of the proceedings of
the county court In filing the peti
tion for county division, was dis
missed by Judge Bradshaw. Tie
court held that no one was compe
tent to bring the case unless the
name apiared on the records of
the county court as an adverse
party to the petition at the time of
filing. In this case thsre was no
adverse party and the writ should
be dismissed. Notice of appeal to
the supreme court was made in open
court. The two cases will be taken
up at once.
County Clerk Brown sent the re
sult of the election to Salem, and
Saturday Governor West issued his
proclamation creating the new coun
ty and appointed William Boegli, of
Culver, county judge, and Roscoe
Card and J. M. King county com
missioners. Card is a resident of
Gateway and King of Opal City.
