Road Supervisors Hold Over in Polk County Case
Judge R P Boise at an adjourned circuit term ruled that road supervisors elected in June 1902 may hold over until January 1 1904. The Kirkpatrick Middleton suit tested whether 1903 laws repealed 1901 acts and vacated road supervisor offices. The decision upholds Middleton as duly elected, with no authority to appoint before 1904.
