Aes.D The box was thrown out, when

morning, aud Register Pound and Re-
ceiver Waters were busy all day re-
plying to settlers who wished to trans
act business. The most of their time
was taken up by applicants who did
not know where they lived, or, at least
could not state their township, nor
show 1t on the plats. In the absence
of Inspector Holeomb, who was to
have been here this morning, County
Recorded Fox, ex-Register of the Ok
ford district, kindly assisted the new
officials in opening the Office and get
ting it in working order. The new
officials took hold, Fox said, as if they
were old hands at the business.
The Silver creek ranchers are in the

Owing to the dryness of the season in

its price soon.
