Platte Insists on Charles Mix County

Platte Insists on Charles Mix County
Seat.
AT the general election last fall a
vote was taken in Charles Mix county
on the question of removing the coun-
ty seat from Wheeler to Geddes. Prior
to the vote there was hot contest be-
tween Platte and Geddes as to which
should be on the ticket. Platte made
the first start, but Geddes finally sue
ceeded in getting upon the ticket, but
was defeated at the election.

would naturally be supposed that the
election ended the matter. However,
the question has just been before the
supreme court again On writ of man.
damus to compel the county board of
Charles Mix county to grant the Platte
petition as the legal one.
The purpose of the continuation of
the fight on the part of Platte is on the
contention that the question must be
at the first general election after the
final judgment in the suit. and without
further petition than the one in ques-
ton. If the town secures a decision
from the supreme Court sustaining it's
position, it hopes to get another vote
on the question of removal at the EeXt
general election, on the ground that
the vote of last year was void and of
no effect.
To allow the matter to go by de-
fault would defeat any further vote for
four years under constitutional pro-
visions. The case, which is State eX

question of county seat removal which

NEW FREAK FOR OLD MUDDY.
Missouri River Shows Remarkably Low
Stage for Spring.

MISSOURI River Shows Remarkably Low
Stage for Spring.
The Missouri river freaks are such
that no man can say how the stream
will act from one day to another or
from one season to the next. For
long time after the ice had gone out
at Pierre this spring. rivermen hest
tated about putting in their large
boats, as the ice from up river was ex-
pected to come down at any time. But
they waited in vain, and not sign of
ice was seen at any time after it broke
away and left here.
Now the boatmen are wondering at
the stage of water in the stream. 1t
is as low as it generally gets at the
close of the season in the fall. In fact
none of them have ever seen it so low
as at present at this season, and boats
are completely cut off from the chan
mel on this side by a bar, compelling
them to land nearly mile up stream.

German friend in Sioux City, enjoyed
many of the viands set before him at a

The Indian relished the weiner-

passed it up with an expressive grunt
After eating heartily he arose from
the table and explained that he must
hurry down to the hotel where he was
stopping. He stated that he had a din

not miss it for anything.
Thus the hungry Indian enjoyed two

While being shown the sights of the
