FROM SEVENTH TO SIXTH.
Judge Loud Advances Rosebud County to
Sixth Class

A brief session of the district court
was held here Saturday by Judge c.
FL. Loud in the district clerks office.
the court room being occupied at the
time by the justices of the peace, hearing
the election contest proceedings. The
occasion was the hearing of the man.
damus proceedings brought by J. c.
Lyndes to compel the board of county
commissioners of Rosebud county to
classify the county in the sixth class,
according to the assessed valuation.
Although the valuation last year was
over $+,O00,OOO, the county commits
sioners had allowed the county to re-
main in the seventh class, knowing that
large number of sheep, cattle and
horses which were in the county at the
last assessment had been removed from
the county and the assessment would
fall considerably below the four mil
lion mark.
Lyndes was represented by George
w. Farr, of Miles City, and resisted
by Sydney Sanner, also of Miles City.
Judg Loud ruled that the commissions
ers must place the county in a higher
class, the law on the point being man
datory.
This action by Lyndes was prompt
ed by the desire of the republican Of
tice-holders for a raise in salaries;
democratic officials-elect have run on a
platform pledged to the support of the
county board in its classification of the
county, knowing the boards reason for
retaining the county in the seventh
class and have opposed Lyndes and
his following.

ANOTHER CUTOFF REPORT.
This Time Word Comes From st. Paul That
N. P. Will Change It's Route.

Another report, this time emanating
from st. Paul, is to the effect that the
Northern Pacific is understood to have
finally decided to construct the cutoff
on it's main coast line west of Dickin-
son to a point in the vicinity of Miles
City. The first purpose, the report
says, is the elimination of a treacher-
ons and expensive piece of track west
of Dickinson. known as the bad
lands.'
The proposed cut off will cross the
Little Missouri river near Medora,
where the banks are high and precipi-
tious. The plan is to build bridge
from bank to bank. The structure will
be $50 feet high and more than one
mile long. or the longest and highest
railway bridge in the United States.
The cutoff will also materially
shorten the main line to the coast, re-
moving the present roundabout curve
at Glendive. The cost of the proposed
improvements is not known, but three
years will be consumed in the work.
