Under Mr.. Everly's instructions the

land for university purposes. He
made good selection, no doubt, but
it has worked hardships on taxpayers
and retarded the development of the
county. The state has selected other
large bodies of land for school pur-
poses. In addition to this about IS
townships in the northeast corner of
the county were set aside by the gen.
eral government as a forest reserve.
This triple selection has been a very
heavy burden for the tax payers to

Gle Busy County Clerk,
Written for the Bee.

Office from June 1, 1893 to June /,
1894, was about 100, and the receipts
of the Office were $2,8S7.10; the num-
Der of instruments filed and recorded
for the six months proceeding June
1, 1901, was 1874, with receipts, g..
711.80.
The assessed acreage of Flathead
county in 1893 was barely $4,000;
the assessment roll for this year will
show an assessed acreage of 100000
acres patented land.
The expense of running the county
for the past year exclusive of the
county schools was about $4,000, out
of that sum $4,000 was spent in re-
pairing and maintaining roads and
bridges.
The tax levy for county purposes
for the past year was Is mills, for dis
trict schools four mills. and for
county high school one mill, and there
is no doubt that the county commits
sioners will reduce the county tax
levy this year, except that the keep
ing and caring for half of the Indians
of the reservation should be thrust on
us, which is partly the case now, un-
der q recent ruling.
In 1872 Mr.. EVERY had charge of
the party that made the first official
survey of Flathead valley. He be.
held q country unsurpassed in sylvan
beauty, and what Is more practical,
possessed Of an inexhaustible soil. It
being a land totally different from
other sections of Montana, with valu.
able forests of pine, spruce, tama-
rack and fir spreading from the
mountain sides across the valley, in.
terspersed with wide areas of prairie,
creating q grand contrast of wood,
dell and park; lakes Of all sizes in.
numberable: rivers, greeks and
springs. with q climate and atmos.

It is but a natural consequence that
the receipts and work in the county
clerk and recorders Office have nearly
doubled since the formation of Flat
head county, owing to the general
prosperity. increase Of population, the
number of transfers. mining and
coal oil locations, etc.
The recent activity in real estate
transfers has caused the owners of
property to realize the importance of
having instruments bearing on titles
properly drawn and recorded; the
papers in trunks and other dark re-
cesses in the fond hope that the owner
is acting wisely is thing of the past.
Vexatious delays, additional expense,
and errors are found, which If properly
attended to at first would be uncalled
for; and further it seems that the re-
cent legislative assemblies when en-
acting legislation providing for any
new work for county officers have
thrown the burden of nearly all of it
on the various cPunty clerks until
the county clerks ONCE has become
sort of general utility and informa-
ton bureau for nearly all of the pur-
poses of county government, from
registering deeds and other public
records, keeping all financial books

of the far away court. The increase
Of the probate work in this Office the
past year over the proceeding year
has been over IS per cent. This heavy
increase is due to the large number
of deaths the past year and to the
building of the Flathead Lake rail.
way. This last reason may not at
first glance be clear, but it is easily
explained. When a corporation buys
real estate las their right-of-way is)
they want the title to it to be clear.
The only way clear title to piece
of land received from a dead relative,
can be had, is to have the es-
tate of the deceased probated, so
that the court can make legal trans
fer OF the property from the deceased
to the heir. There has been several
cases where the husband had died
and left his land to his children or
widow. They had neglected to have
the same probated, and when they
sold the right-of-way they could not
make legal transfer till the law had
been complied with.
The divorce mill ground out 10
divorces the first year. This was di.
minished during the following years,
until last year when the grist consist
ed Of 80 cases.
The first year was the banner year
in filing of criminal cases; 81 was the
number as compared with 80 the
past year. To explain this big differ
ence will bring to mind an interesting
chapter in our political history. The
second and last grand jury Of this
county, which met in October, 1893,
found 81 true bills against all the
county officers, except two, who had
been appointed by the legislature to
serve till the first regular election
of the county. The offences were as
follows: EmDezzlement, 20; perjury,
8; neglect OF duty, 81; humanity to
prisoners, 2. Hon. Dudley DuBose,
Judge of this, then the tenth judicial
district, was disqualified from trying
the cases on account of being pre-
JUDGED, and Judge Hunt from Helena
took his place during the trial. Only
two of the olicers were tried and both
were acquitted.
Thomas Written the first year and
James Patton the past year were both
charged with murder and both were
sentenced to the penententiary for
ten years. Two persons were COM
mitted to the reform school the past
year, none the first, five were sent to
the insane asylum and three were
acquitted the past year, eleven were
adjudged insane and four acquitted
the first year.
While all other court business was
hampered and delayed on account of
the 1876 miles that separated the peo-
pie of the valley from the county
seat, there was one particular branch
that laughed at all inconvenience,
distance and hardship. There was not
sudden increase in the lumber of
marriage licenses issued. The clerk
of the district court issued As licenses

OF all the valuable information in
this world, statistics are the dullest
and most uninteresting.. Lest the
reader should tire of this article be-
fore reading it through, the aim will
therefore be to avoid, as far as posi-
BILE statistical array of figures. It was
the intention at first to make it COM
parative statement of business trans
acted in the office of the clerk of the
district court during the year ending
June Is, 1901, as compared with the
year ending June Is, 1900. But it was
thought to be of more interest to make
the comparison between the year just
passed and the first year that Flat
head was county, and giving short
sketch of how this county was Gre
ated.
The fiftieth congress of the United
States passed the enabling act Feb
ruary %. 1889 in which it authorized
the formation of four states, among
which was Montana. The constitu.
tional convention met at Helena and
adopted our present constitution
August II, 1889. The delegate sent
from what Is now Flathead county,
then part of Missoula county, was
w. R. Ramsdell.
As stated above, we were then a part
of Missoula county and the county seat
was at Massachusetts, miles away. It
was very inconvenient for the people
Of this valley to have the county
seat so far away. If law suit was
commenced, it was nearly impossible
to bring it to trial unless both parties
to the action were willing. II it was
to the interest of one of the parties
to delay the trial, he could represent
to the Judge that one of his most
important Witnesses not known till
the day of the trial was 1876 miles
away, that it would be an injustice to
him to try the case in the absence of
this witness, that it would take at
least one week to get him to court.
The Judge could do nothing then but
continue the case for week. In that
case the other party to the action had
to incur the expense of keeping his
witnesses till the time set for trial.
Or, on the other hand, the judge
might inform them that he was COM
PEELED to continue the case till next
term of court, as he could not hold
the jury at the expense of the county
one week for just this one case.
Things were therefore very unsatis-
factory and the people of the valley
were loud in their clamor for the divi-
sion Of the county. Their object was
finally reached when Governor Rick
ards signed the Flathead county bill
February 6, 1893.
During the first year PIG civil and
So probate cases were filled. During
the year ending today only 81 civil
and 43 probate cases were filed. The
hood of business the first year was
due to the causes indicated above.
All persons having any grievances
rushed into court to have their wrongs
righted and the unfinished cases of
the Missoula court were transferred
here. There had been very few es-
tates probated before the formation
of Flathead county. The heirs would
get together and divide the property
of the deceased amicably, If not le-
gally. rather than await the action

Business,

Many people have been watching
with great deal Of interest the
growth and development of both the
city Of Kalispell and the country sur
rounding it in the past few years. AS
to the growth and development Of
the country, or outside property
which has been part of the vacant
government land of the United States,
the total number of entries made at
the local land Office will be of inter-
est to all those keeping in touch with
its rapid development, and the num-
Der of people who are enQuiring daily
at the land Office for information as
to the amount of vacant and unap-
propriated land is as great now as it
has been at any time during the past
two years. The following comparison
of business done at the local land
Office for the two years beginning
June 1, 1899 and ending May 81, 1901,
will give an idea of the increase of
lands thus taken and how the bust
ness has more than doubled the past
year.
Total business done under various
acts of congress during the year end.
ing May 81, 1900, is as follows:
Number of homestead entries, 149;
acres segregated, 2O,55S.77; cash paid
into office, $2,318.43.
Final homestead proofs made, 70;
acres involved, 1O,79S.55; cash paid
into office, $4S3.75.
Timber and stone proofs made, 40;
acres taken, 7,247.12; cash paid into
land Office, $20,35S.95.
Desert land entries made, 6: acres
taken, 741.O3; cash paid in the
land Office, $415.26.
This makes total of entries during
the year of all kinds, of 1888; number
of acres, 39.3.o.47; total cash paid in,
$24,446.66, and to this cash amount
add miscellaneous fees collected of
$87O.27 and we have $25,31693, total
| cash business of the year.
Total business done under various
act of congress during the year ending
May 81, 1901, is as follows:
Number of homestead entries made,
359; acres taken, 53,714.75; cash paid
into land Office, $5,742.1s.
Final homestead proofs made, "a;
acres involved, 1O,815.71; cash paid
into land Office, $419.55.
Timber and stone proofs made, 1875;
acres segregated, 19,768.94: cash paid
into land Office, $50,539.95.
Desert land entries made, 9; acres
taken, 1,949.70; cash paid into land
Office $2,532.42.
This makes total of 567 entries
during the year under the various
acts: number of acres segregated.
sc. 250.10; total cash paid into the local
land Office $62,201.43, and to this cash
amount add fees collected of $780,. 33
and we have a grand cash total of
65,168.76 for the year ending May
81, 1901.
| Thus it will be seen that the year
ending May 81. 1901, more than
doubled the business done in the
year ending May 81, 1900.
| There were thirty-two entries offer
ed for filing in March which were in
conflict with other offers and those
entries have not yet been taken into
account and when so taken will really
increase the total number of home
stead filings for the year from 359 to
391 as against 149 for the previous
year. The total of acres segregated
does not include selections by the
Northern Pacific railway filed during
the year. nor does it include state
