mating, we believe. with the Hillsboro
Banner) has been going the rounds of Da-
kota newspapers, to the effect that law
was enacted by the legislature last winter
requiring only . majority vote to relocate
q county seat, until such county seat
shall be located on railway, at a depot
to which cars are running, when two.
thirds vote would be necessary to again
remove 1t In order to learn the truth, we
addressed Secretary Teller for informa-
Hon, and received the following:
D. r. Ssrseser, Esq, WiHiamspo,t, D. IT.,
DEAR SIR-Replyin9 to your inquiry, have to
say that no such gensrd act became law. A

to Faulk County. Very respectfully,
S3E @ ]. II. TELLER, Secretary.
