County Division.

Governor Lind. State Auditor Dunn
and Assistant Secretary of State
Lennon Tuesday took up the petit
tion for the division of ST. Louis
county. They found the petition in
proper form, but decided to defer ac-
tion until Wednesday Of next week.
One of the reasons for this delay is
that second petition for division
Of the same county on different line
is on the way to the capitol, and the
two can be more satisfactorily consi-
dered together than separately. The
petition already on hand proposes to
divide the county on the north line of
township Sc. and to make Virginia
the county seat.
The other petition proposes to draw
line east and west through the cen
ter of township Sc and to make Biwa-
blk the county seat of the new county.
Both proposed new counties take in
all the mining towns on the ranges.
