Tuesday Sheriff c. f.. Wilson took
]. G. Smith to Boonville where the pris-
oner was placed in the Cooper county
Jail for safe keeping until the December
Term of Morgan County Circuit Court.
Smith was arrested at Syracuse recently
for mortgaging a team Of mules which
he did not possess, thereby securing $50
on the strength Of the fraudulent mort
gage. Smith had a hearing in the jus.
tice court, plead guilty and was brought
here to be held until the court could dis.
pose Of his case. Hence Sheriff Wilson
took the prisoner to Cooper county to
await action.

Mo e In the Right Direction.

Postm ,ter J. ". Mills fell in with the
DEMoct rs recent suggestion Of inter-
viewinq ne farmers and stock men Of
this Gov " relative to a County Fah in
Versaill and this week he submitted
his prop sition to the committee having
charge o. the local features of the Street
and County Fair to be held here next
week, and it met unanimous favor with
those gentlemen at once.
The sum and substance Of the propo.
sition WAS this: That a joint committee
Of business men and farmers be appointed
whose duties it shall be to interview
every responsible stock man and farmer
who may attend the street fair during
next week, and secure a brief express
sion from each and every one as to
what their views really are regarding a
permanent fair and stock show for Nor.
gan County, and where possible, obtain
positive an personal proof of what they
will do toward encouraging the organi.
cation of a Fair Association and estab-
fishing a County Pair in Versailles.
This committee has been selected and
the interviews will be collected and are
to be retained and after the Street Fair
has come and gone a mass meeting of
citizens will he called in this city, dur
Ing the progress Of which these inter.
views will be read and weighed to their
fullest extent.
The object of this is for the purpose of
,sking action in accord with the senti-
I,ents 81 expressed, while the subject Of
a permanent County Fair can Ike dis.
cussed with accurate knowledge Of how
the people OF our county feel toward an
association of this character, whether
hey are present or not. We believe Mr..
Mills has struck the right key to get
the feelings Of citizens generally. and the
committee placed in charge Of the mat
ter should not lag at any time next week
while there are people present to give
expression to Their sentiments relative to
County Fair in Versailles. 1t is a good
thing TO push along.

hold of federal lands, they are car
rying on a large business in state
school lands.
one of the firm generally makes
headquarters at the state house, and
has access to the books and records
of the state land office, under the
theory that they are public records,
open to any citizen. 1t is stated that
most of the lands that Puter has Sc
cured or wanted to secure, were
worthless, and the state is simply out
money by not letting him have them
The method is to secure worthless
state lands, and represent them as
being contiguous to some reclamation
project, and thus unload them on
some guileless purchaser, who is by
this process swindled, and the state,
in allowing this to be done, becomes
indirectly party to the transaction.
When the governor returns it is
expected that the state land board
will again take up the Puter case,
and some limit will be put on the
use of the public records for the pro-
cesses of alternating public lands. II
the lands have any value, the state
should get that value out of them
without employing methods that are
open to serious objection of any kind.

Seattle, March 23.-Travel over the
ice and snow from White Horse to
Dawson may be stopped any day
through the breaking up Of the win

in that region is the cause.
kilograms from White Horse to the
White Pass railroad say that the snow
is already thawing fast, leaving many
bare spots on the trail. Freight and
passenger stages can now carry only
light loads. The ice is thinner than
usual and the thaw, If continued, will
put the trail out of business. 1t is

QUARANTINE FOR DIPHTHERIA.
The Disease Causes the Close of the
Adams School.

Diphtheria is again causing trouble
on the reservation near Adams, and
this morning quarantine was plac-
ed over the home of Louis Audette,
who lives two miles out from that
town. DR.. c. ]. Smith as a member
OF the state board of health; DR.. w.
G. Cole, as county physician, and DR.,
T. NJ. Henderson, as the reservation
physician, all went to the place this
forenoon for the purpose of investi-
eating the matter and the quaran-
tine is the result.
Two deaths have already occurred
in the Audette family from the dis
ease, which was not called diphtheria
by the Adams doctors, and two other
children are now down with it..
While the physicians from this place
do not say that the disease is diph-
iberia, the symptoms are so nearly
like 1t that they felt a quarantine TO
be justified The matter has been
left in the hands of Major McKoin
and DR.. Henderson.
The Adams schools are now clos
ed, and the town Is taking measures
to prevent the disease from becoming
started there. The doctors have rec
commended that the schools remain
closed until next week.

At the meeting of the city council
held last night the last of the out
standing sewer warrants were order
ed paid. a petition from the residents
of Locust Hill asking that the sewer
be extended to that place was receiv-
ed, and other matters concerning the
public welfare were discussed.
There being sufficient money in the
general fund with which to redeem
the outstanding sewer warrants, on
motion of Councilman Dickson a war
rant was ordered drawn on the gem
eral fund in favor of the levee sink
ing fund for the amount, $4,000. and
accrued interest, which is said to be
about $50. By this action last night
the city paid the last of the warrant

debtedness,
! Complaint was made last evening
that various parties along the river
inside the city limits were dumping
| refuse in the stream in violation Of
the regulations, and the matter was
referred to the sewer committee with
power to act.
The subject of widening the south
walk of the Main street bridge was
again discussed last night, but as
only one member of the street COM
mittee was present no report was
made by them. The sentiment ap-
peared to be in favor of widening the
walk to seven feet, and the matter
will probably be brought up again
at the next meeting,
Councilman johnson stated that he
had been requested by the people
living on Locust hill to bring up the
subject of extending the sewer to
that section, and that there were said
to be eight residents there desiring
sewer connection. No action was
taken. as the council did not wish to
take up the general subject of ex-
tending the sewer at this time. The
opinion was expressed that If the
request was taken up, similar ap-
peals would be made from other sec
tions of the city that are still uncon-
nected. This was not desired because
the finances of the city will not per-
NIT of the extension at the present
time.
