    34-2015.  AMENDMENTS. The proceedings shall not be dismissed for want of
form, if the particular causes of contest are alleged with such certainty as
will sufficiently advise the incumbent of the real grounds of contest. If any
part of the causes are held insufficient they may be amended, but the
incumbent will be entitled to an adjournment if he state on oath that he has a
matter to answer to the amended causes, for the preparation of which he needs
further time. Such adjournment shall be upon such terms as the court deems
reasonable; but if all the causes are held insufficient, and an amendment is
asked the adjournment shall be at the cost of the contestant. If no amendment
is asked for or made, or in case of entire failure to prosecute, the
proceedings may be dismissed.
