This action was begun in the district court for Dawes county. The petition alleges several causes of action on as many different county warrants of that county. As a defense to some of the warrants, it was alleged that they were ordered drawn and issued without authority, because in excess of 85 per cent, of the levy; and as to other of the warrants the defense was the statute of limitations.
