The latest angle to the old Jackson
school injunction case against the
school board, which was finally set
tled by agreement by the plaintiff
procuring a judgment for $10 costs,
transpired Inst Saturday when O. C.
Hoggs, attorney for Mrs. Robinson
ami other Jackson school patrons
concerned in the case, attached tho
private bank account of Elmer Wil
son, school board member, at the
Jackson county bank.
Rumor has it that Doggs also at
tached the private bank accounts of
Dr. I. D. Phlpps and A. H. Miller,
who were also board members at
the time the injunction .suit vas set
tled, but so far as could be learned
today only the bank account nf
Elmer- Wilson lias so fur been af
fected. The attachment followed the de
mand made on Miss Kuth Manning,
as clerk of the school district, last
Saturday that the hill be pnid it
once. Miss Manning at that time
informed Mr. Boggs, she says, thai
she would probably pay the JIG bill
Tuesday and that the attorney then
declared that ho was not interested
In next Tuesday, but wanted the
money at once.
All this happened, according to
the school noard, after nothing had
been heard of the $16 costs bill for
11 months past, until last Thursday,
tho day before the high school site
election, when Attorney Hoggs ob
tained an execution from the county
clerk which was served on Miss
Manning, as the school district clerk,
with the alleged threat that If not
promptly pnid he would obtain the
money of tho school district from
the bank. Miss Manning then dis
honored the execution, and Mr.
Hoggs wa sadvised that whenever the
matter was presented In the way the
law provides, the $16 would be paid.
The dispute over the bill will
probably now be fought out In the
court. Gus Newbury Is the attorney
for the sehoo board.
