Ordered of the Reserves.

PORT TOWNSEND, WASH, Aug. 81
CONSERVATION has been caused in this
and adjoining counties by the appear
ance OF an army lieutenant and squad
OF men with instructions to settlers on
the government reserves to vacate be-
fore September 15 or be removed by
the troops. The move is the outcome
OF the recent order of the war depart
ment. 1t is conservatively estimated
that 1900 settlers will lose their homes.

The state censuses taken this year
indicate that the drift from the coun-
try to the cities is quite as strong as it
was five years ago. Meantime the
cities and farms are drawing nearer
together by improved and more rapid
means of communication. The link
between farming and manufacturing
is close one, and there are many
people in New England and Canada
who divide the time between their
land and the factories. How the pop
ulation will finally be distributed in
city and country cannot be foreseen,
but as their relations are becoming
more intimate every year the problem
in the end will probably vanish of it.

THIRTEEN MINERS LOST.
Entombed by the Accidental Flooding oi
Colorado Mines.

Col0radO Mines.
CENTRAL CITY, Colo, Aug. 29.-
The accidental flooding of the Amer
icus and the Sleepy Hollow mines, this
afternoon, caused the death, it is be-
lieved, of 13 miners. Every effort is
being made to rescue the men, but
little hope is entertained.
Soon after o'clock the water in the
lower workings of the Fisk mine, east
of the main shaft. broke through the
old workings of vein which has not
been worked for number of years.
Coursing eastward, it struck the Amer
icus, where two Italian miners, whose
names have not been learned, were at
work in the lower part of the shaft.
They were both drowned. In its
course, the water diverted to the
Sleepy Hollow mine, the easterly por-
tion of the Fisk vein.
Fourteen men were working in the
Sleepy Hollow, three of whom escaped.
A courier was sent to the adjacent
mines, and all their workmen escaped.
Those in the Sleepy Hollow, whose es-
cape was shut off, were:
N. Vegas, B. Brocken, Brewer P.
Risk, William P. Risk, Thomas Rouse,
Thomas Williams, M. Placoni, Thomas
Calbis, ]. Harris, S. Valegro, John
Parks.
The sounding of the whistle gave
the first signal of the disaster, and
soon the shaft building of the Sleepy
Hollow mine was so packed with the
families and friends of the imprisoned
miners and those anxious to render as
sistance that it was almost impossible
for the work of attempting rescue to
proceed. ..------~
Deputy Sheriff Williams finally ar
rived on the grounds, the building was
cleared. and practical miners offered
their services in low ering the bucket.
The greatest depth attained was $50
feet. The accumulated gas forced up
by the rising waters was such that
candle would not burn at greater
depth.
A second effort was then made,
large sized safety-lamp having been
placed in the bucket. The rescuer
who first descended, H. P. Risk, was
found at the 330-foot level. On reach
ing the surface he was almost in an in
sensible condition. Other volunteers
went down afterward, but were not
successful in reaching lower point in
the shaft, owing to the rising of the
water.

No Additional Buildings

The hospital for the insane will receive
no appropriation for additional build
ings, for the governor has filed his veto
of the bill providing for their erection, as
follows:
March %, 1896.
To the Honorable Secretary of State:
Senate Bill No. SO, entitled "An act to
provide for erection of necessary addi-
tional buildings for the Hospital for the
Insane at jamestown, North Dakota
was filed in the executive office March
9th. The provisions of this bill are with
one exception the same as those of
Senate Bill No. 76, passed by the third
legislative assembly, and which failed to
receive the approval of the executive.
The constitutional limit of Indebtedness
having been reached, it is not prudent to
authorize the issuance of more bonds.
The bonds herein contemplated, ia be-
come valid, must be authenticated by
certain state officers, and when thus u
thentlcated, become a part Of the state
debt. To pay the interest on the bonds
contemplated by the bill, while the fund
designated is not available an appropria-
ton is made out of the state treasury to
meet the same. The hospital for the in.
sane may be in need of additional build
ings, and the same can be said of other
institutions. But with the heavy indebt-
edness for which the state in obligated
and the necessary amounts to be funded
to maintain the credit Of the state. I
deem it to the best interests Of the insti-
tuition, as we'll as the state at large, to
file the same without my approval.

The uncertainty which existed as to
the final fate or the appropriation bills
was relieved Friday. Throughout the
whole of the day the governor and
state officers were in consultation as to
the matter. 1t wa the general agree.
ment that the reduction of the appropri-
atoms was necessary in order to preserve
the credit of the state and keep within
the revenues. These have all been care
fully estimated. The question has been
earnestly and carefully discussed by the
administration since the close of the
session. All sides have been heard, and
all delegations which came to argue the
matter have been received and listened
to. But, in the mind of the governor, no
solution of the financial tangle was evil
dent except a heavy cut in the proposed
outlay. And none of the institutions
have escaped, although the educational
institutions, as the only ones which
could be dispensed with, have received
the heaviest cuts. The State university
and the two normal schools will have to
be closed, while the penitentiary, asylum
and other institutions can be operated,
but the stricted economy will be required
in all departments.
The bills, as reduced, were filed with
the secretary of state at $40 p. m. Fri
day. The total cut is a little over $121,-
600, or about one-third. The following
summary will show the comparative

Will They Or No:

The A. o. Q. W. lodges of the Dakotas,
who We're to have held their grand lodge
meeting at jamestown IN a few weeks,
voted to postpone it on account of the
hard times and buy seed wheat for needy
members with the funds. But it is re.
ported from Aberdeen that a legal que
tion has arisen in connection with the
postponement, and it may be that lead
ing members will get out a mandamus
compelling the grand lodge to meet. The
boys are in somewhat of a quandary over
the matter. The meeting was expected
to have been a very large one, and to
have lasted several days. The money
which was to have been used to pay the
expenses of the members will most likely
be loaned to subordinate lodges, and by
them used to aid members in purchasing
seed grain. The amount will be about
$500. There have been 1913 applica-
lions from South Dakotas for this aid,
and only four from North Dakota, yet
the North Dakota lodges are largely in
favor OF the ~postponement Of the grand
lodge. showing the charity and good in

A GENERAL RESUME.
A glance at the items which have been
stricken from the several appropriations
will show that the two normal schools
and the state university will have to be
closed. The appropriations for the salary
of faculties, and for the several depart
ments of learning have been stricken
out, leaving nothing but appropriations
for the care of the buildings, with prob.
ably enough to finish up the present
school year.
The insane asylum loses appropria-
ton for improvements, library, new beds,
painting, and all other features which
can possibly be dispensed with. The
~penitentiary loses the offices of book
keeper, matron, chaplain and teacher
and librarian, together with the appro-
priation for a new yard wall, and repairs
and improvements. The deaf and dumb
school meets with a general scaling
down, but will be able to continue in
operation, and the soldiers home loses a
number of it's officers, together with ap-
preparations for new furniture, books,
etc.
H GOVERNORS REASONS.
The governors reasons for vetoing the
bills, or parts Of them are solely because
of the financial condition OF the state,
or, as stated in the veto:
"The objections being that the v
nues of the state available for appro-
priations, after %deductlng the standing
continuous appropriations, will not meet
the expenditure of the SUMS a%ppropri-
ated by the legislative assembly and
keep the credit Of the state unimpaired."

just His Size.

Mrs. S. E. Kurtz, of Williamsport, has
a grandfather named Leonard Ballet,
living near Nevada, Ohio, says the En-
mons County Record. He is over 80.
years old, and he has always been a
rock-ribbed democrat. But he seems to
be losing faith, as the following from his
local paper would tend to show. The.
old gentleman prides himself on his abil-
tiles as a sauge-maker. One year during
President Cleveland's first term he made.
a sausage, all in one case, seventy two.
feet long. Another year after that, dur
ing the same administration, he made a
s~ingle-case sausage e%ighty.four feet long.
These sausages he exhibited with great
pride as cleveland sausages." During
the past winter, while making sausage, a.
piece about three inches long broke off.
He was asked what he would name it,.
"Oh,"replied the old gentleman, "that's
a Cleveland sausage, too-it's all be de-
serves this year."

A Considerable Change.

Word was received by Agent Norris.
of the Northern Pacific express company,
Saturday of an important change to.
be made in the local Office. On April L,
the express office is to be consolidated
with the railroad department. and both
will be operated by Agent Scott. The
office is to be moved into the one formerly
occupied by John Davidson in the rail-
road depot, and the express department.
will be under the management of the.
local railroad employees without any extra
force. The express wagon is to be stored,
the horse pastured, and hereafter per-
sons will call for packages, which will
no longer be delivered after that date.
Agent Morris will also be relieved Of his
duties as express agent at this point.
The is not a local one, as it is.
understood the same move will be made
at Grand Forks and jamestown, and at
all of the officers of about that descrip-
ton between st. Paul and the coast. It
is in line with a policy of rigid economy
concluded to be enforced by the COM
pany.
