Deemer, I.
(dissenting).' — Believing that this case is ruled by Hesper Dist. Tp. v. Burr Oak Independent Dist., 34 Iowa, 306, which holds the statute quoted or a like statute mandatory, I respectfully dissent from the conclusion of the majority. I think the judgment should be, on the authority of that case, affirmed.
