This case presents error from the distinct court of Okmulgee county, and is a proceeding in mandamus to compel the plaintiffs in error, composing the county election board of that county, to convene and canvass the returns of an alleged election held in the town of Morris in that county on the 2d day of April, 1912, for the purpose of electing a board of trus tees for the said town. On the final trial before the court a peremptory writ was issued, and, after the denial of a motion for new trial, the cause was lodged in this court for review.
