ALLOWED CLERK HlRE
Auditor, Treasurer and Register of
Deeds Will Employ Clerks to
Assist in Office Work.

The county commissioners adj
journed Wednesday afternoon late.
The afternoon was taken up in rou-
tine business and opening the bids
for the construction of bridges. In
the latter proposition Commissioners
Dunn and .Sayles of Au1oa county
were present and took part IN the
proceedings. The two bridges to be
constructed are across the creek on
the line between the counties of
Dawson and Aurora, in Blendon
township in the former and Palatine
township in the latter. There were
four bidders, and the contract was
awarded to Fred Bjodstrop, of this
city, for the sum of SlO75, under
bidding the outside firms. One is a
twenty-four foot wooden bridge and
the other is a sixty foot steel
bridge.
Before the close of the session the
commissioners took a departure from
the OLD established rut of trying to
do the business of the county on the
cheapest possible plan and at the
expense of the people Of the county.
The board appropriated the sum OF
$3.50 each for the offices Of treasur-
er, auditor and register of deeds for
the period Of q year with which
the officers are to employ such help
as needed. Years ago clerk hire in
this county was used as political cap
ital, butt necessity for assistance
in transacting the business Of the
county has become so apparent that
it is now not a matter Of politics but
a matter of business. In each of
these three offices there is an in
crease OF business Of one-half and it
was expected that one man had to do
it all, or if he employed help he had
to pay for it. II the officer attempt
ed to do 1T alone then the business
OF the county suffered to a large ex-
tent. 1t was a wise and business
like move for the commissioners and
we believe that they will have the
cordial support Of every citizen Of
the county in their efforts to do
business or a business basis. In the
register Of deed S office alone, as an
illustration, mortgages have been
placed there for filing that could not
be reached under a month, and it
was an actual loss to the owners Of
them to wait until time could be Sc
cuIed to file them, all on account Of
the accumulated business.

PALACE NOT DESTROYED
Mistaken Idea Prevalent Concerning
the Alleged Burning of the
Corn Palace.

a serious tire broke out inside the
corn palace at Mitchell about I
O'Clock last night, and though the
building was not totally destroyed,
1T has prol ably been damaged to
such an extent that it will not pay
to attempt TIC rebuild it.
The above is an extract from an
item printed in the aberdeen News
following the incipient blaze in the
corn palace building, and similar
items have appeared in the state
press, taken from the News idea OF
the fire.
Whether purposely or otherwise the
Aberdeen News made a great mis-.
take about the alleged burning of
the corn palace. The building was
not inJured-t to any great extent anc
it would not take S25 to repair the
damage done by the flames. The
wood work was not burned, barely
charred in places. None of the corr
decorations were injured in the least,
in fact all that WAS burned was the
light d|raperles on The ceiling, and q
very small percentage at that. The
fire was discovered within two min
utes after it broke out and a hose
was attached Immediately and tn,
water turned ON.
We can assure the News that the
building has not been damaged 81
that it will not pay to rebuild it
The building, however, will tie re
built next ear on a.-much large
scale and the people of the state will

MITCHELL WON FROM YANKTON
Winning from College Team Makes
IL Possible for Mitchell to
Become state Champion

That was a great victory Mitchell
won Monday afternoon On the foot
ball feld. The gridiron was SIZZLING
hot, particularly in the short second
hali.that was played. In the first
half neither side ginpered up until
near the close. The score at the fin
ish was Mitchell IL, Yankton 0.
The game was called at 4 O'Clock
with thi1ty-iive minute nalves. Blk
by. of Sioux City, and Chamberlain,
of Huron, acted as referee and UNI
pire, while the time was kept hy
George II. Douthit and Prof. Grlhitll.
The first touchdown came with
surprising quickness. Mitchell
kicked oil to Yankton's 20 yard line
and held for downs. Yankton tried
a punt and Barrett blocked the
line and Weak, of Mitchell. was there
at the opportune momement and fell
on 1.-THE pigskin for a touchdown.
stephens kicked goal, and there was
jov uncomfortable on the side lines.
The ball after that was kept in
Ganktons territory the greater share
of the time ard each side made but
few gains. The play was not swift
until near the end of the half, when
the Mitchell eleven awoke to the Sit
uation and commenced to put in some
hard work. Gnkton also bad an
awakening that did her good. Mitch
ell bucked Gankton's line with fair
success, although they held our boys
several times. Seaman was finally
given the hall for a punt and he sent
it spinning down the field, where it
was fumbled by Yankton and fell
into the possession of Mitchell with.
in four yards of the goal line.
1T was an easy matter then 10 push
the ball over for the second touch
down. Stephens failed to kick goal.
To the end of the half the ball was
in neutral territory.
The second half started fierce.
Yankton kicked to Mitchell and the
boys went after that Yankton line
with sufficient force to break
through it at will. Seaman tried
another punt and it fell into Armin's
hands and the little fellow made a
lively dash for Mitchell's goal, COW
ering d distance of 40 yards before he
was downed. BiXby penalized Mitch
ell 10 yards for what he claimed was
rough play, although it was not evil
dent to other eyes and this gave
Yankton a closer position TO the
goal, being on the fifteen yard line.
Armin tried for goal kick but he
missed the poles by l5 or 20 feet.
The ball was put in play again by
Sean an kicking off at the 25 yard
line. Mitchell held Yankton for
downs and then started by line buck
ing for Yankton's goal. Mitch ell
had worked to within four yards Of
the goal when time was called. an-
other five minutes and Mitchell
would have had her third touch
down..
Mitchell showed considerable bet
ter work on the field, and times
without number in trying for end
runs Yankton was held back Of the
