TROUBLE MAY COME.
a SQUAD OF ARMY MEN IN rom,
TOWNSEND.


Port Townsend. Wash, August ~
CONSERVATION was caused in this and
adjoining counties by the appearance
OF an army Lieutenant and a squad Of
men with instructions to all settlers on
government reserves to vacate the
same before September 10, or they
would be removed by the troops. This
move is the outcome OF q recent order
OF the war department, and It is estI-
mated that 1900 settlers will lose their
homes Years ago the government set
aside much valuable land on which
1t intended to establish Ind l,s. These
reservations exceeded the needs OF the
occasion. and MS an attempt was never
mndc to take up the lands, many
pioneers settled on the tracts. which by
Intelligent cultivation have been de-
the state, 1t Is feared here that trou-
BILE will ensue.

WHAT WILL THEY DO ABOUT IT,
The Commissioners Have Appointed
Two Supervisors Of Road Work.


Two Supervisors Of Road Work.
Superintendent Of Roads r. J. Wade is
somewhat worried as to what source his
orders are 10 come from AT the last ses-
sion Of the county commissioners an or
der was passed providing that the road
work should be done in the future ac-
cording to the plans Of the county en-
ginser and under his supervision, but in
this work it leaves him under the dire
ton Of the chairman Of the committee
on roads and bridges as TO when and
where the work is TO be done.
At present the work is done directly
under the supervision OF the chairman Of
the committee. Commissioner W. +. Chap
lin Commissioners Chaplin and Dale are
known to have been opposed to this
movement. II Commissioner Chaplin, as
chairman Of the committee, does not give
the directions TO the county engineer as
20 what work IS to be done, but gives his
orders directly 10 the superintendent Of
roads, the situation Of affairs remains
exactly as it was before the order was
passed.
The superintendent viii continue to re-
ceive his instructions with regard 10 the
work for the present at least from the
chairman of the committee II may be
that the committee will get together and
take some action with regard to what
work is TO be done, and ask the chair
man to call on the county engineer 10
submit plans and to direct the work, but
If he does not do this the situation re-
! mains just the same. and the order Is of
L effect.
1t remains to be seen what action the
board will take with regard TO this at
its next meeting. AS the matter stands
nONT there are two orders on the minutes,
one Of which requires that the work be
done according to the directions of the
chairman of the committee on roads and
bridges, and the other that it be done ac-
cording to the plans and under the su-
peryision of the county engineer.

The question of getting into Savannah
will probably soon be acted upon in the
hope of securing the carrying of a good
share of this years cotton crop. The ques-
ton of building from Meldrim to Savan-

considered, should no satisfactory traffic
arrangement he effected with the Central
Traffic arrangements with the Savannah

May Have Been Balloon.
A brief dispatch in yesterdays Morning
News from Cleveland, o., stated that Fred
Barnett. a sailor, had been dubbed to
death there by policeman. Barnett was on
a crazy drunk at the time
1t is possible that the man who was kill
ed by the Cleveland policeman was an ex-
Savannah man. A Mrs. Balloon called at
the police barracks and requested Chief
McDermott to write the chief Of police of
Cleveland for a description of the man
killed there and for other means of iden-
tification Mrs. Balloon said that she
thought it likely that the man reported
killed at Cleveland was Fred Balloon. her
husband who formerly lived in Savan-
nah, but who left here about nine months
ago.
Mrs. Balloon said that she had not heard
from her husband in six years. He was a
drinking man and it was not unlikely, she
said that he had met his death in the man
ner stated in the telegram. When she last
