Nevada Spuds.

Nevada potatoes are gradually TAX
ing the place that Of right belongs to
them in the California markets. In
the big towns of that State "Salinas
Burbanks' are no longer in demand;
II is Dayton potatoes" that the know
ing householder asks for-and doesn't
get. For with that guile peculiar to
the average groceryman everywhere
the California provision dealer calls
every potato a Dayton potato, and thus
two things are made to suffer. the
chief Nevada agricultural product and
its would-be consumer.
There are agents from all the large
California towns buying potatoes in
this State at present but many Of the
ranchers are holding in expectation
that the price will. reach $50 per ton
by winter, while the buyers are only
offering $24 at present.

child in the city being affected with 1t
to a greater or less extent. 1t has been
lying dormant in their systems for
several weeks as the home team in

felt that our nine had not yet been
against the real thing and that their
prowess would be tested when they
played the pumpkin rollers from the
Tongue river fiat, otherwise known as
the Miles City baseball team. It ar.
rived in Billings early Saturday morn
ing, accompanied by some forty rooters,
most Of whom are prominent citizens
Of our sister city. All were gaily be.
decked with the colors Of their club-a

There were no such odds on the games,
but the pace had been set by few
small bets and the Miles City sports
were scared. They had plenty of
money with them, but refused to lay it
even, demanding odds Of at least two
to one, Notwithstanding the boasts Of
the Yellowstone Journal that the
pumpkin rollers were invinoible. The
Billings people. Of course, would not
bet that way. They would have
covered all the money the visitors had

INDEFINITELY POSTPONED.
The New Court Ha,aAe Proposition IL
Thk RTreatAd,

The county commissioners met Satur-
day evening and among the business
transacted was the taking up of the
court house proposition. The opinion
of the attorney general, regarding the
submitting Of proposition to build a
new court house aud Jail to cost in ex-
cess Of $4,000 to the voters at a special
election, was read, which was as fol.
lows:
1.-THE matter Of the expenditure of
the money for the construction of a Jail
building can only come up for consider
alton at the general election to be held
year from this fall. The right to
hold an election exists through legisla.
tive authority. and unless the legisla.
tive authority exists it follows as
matter Of course that special elections
cannot be held. There seems to be no
express authority for submitting the
question to the electors at special
election. 1t is only where vacancies in
Offices exist that special elections can
be held. I do not believe that this
question can be submitted to the peo.
pie of Yellowstone county before thu
general election to be held year from
this fall
This, in substance, is tine same az
stated in last Fridays Gazette, and is
the same opinion as given by County
Attorney Johnston. After some little
in which the commissioners
confessed they could do nothing for the
new court house proposition. the mat
ter was indefinitely postponed and will
not likely he taken up again for year.
