OPINIONS DIFFER OVER DIPPING.

StOckmen of the northern half of
Fergus County this week presented
a long remonstrance to the dipping
order recently promulgated, address
ing State Veterinarian Knowles
The petition states that stock inspectors
have extined over 900 head Of cattle
ia. the district and have not found
one scabby animal.
Meantime preparations for dipping
in Valley and Chouteau counties are
going ahead. The first experiment
will be made near Malta. The stock
men of the two counties at a recent
meeting in that city decided that
although few if any cattle were af-
tlicted by scab, both cattle and horses
were suffering greatly from parasites
and it is believed that dipping will
remove these as we'll asinsure safety

HAVRE Bees SWEARINCER TO
NOT Retire FROM HIS POST.

The new hose for the fire depart
ment which arrived during the week,
was ordered tested. The hose is guar
anteed to stand a pressure Of 400 lbs.
and to last for four years. Twelve
hundred feet Of hose are to be tested.
The ordinance providing for i'm
prOvement and inspection Of lateral
sewers and for licensing of firms
engaged in construction Of the sewers
was finally passed. The ordinance
puts the entire sewer proposition
under control of City Engineer
Swearinger, who, alone, will have the
power to grant permits. The ordi-
nance provides for abolition Of all
cesspools; ne drain pipe shall be less
than four inches in diameter and all
pipes must be laid to established
grade.
The city treasurer reported total
receipts for May at $l693O7 total
expenditures at 8l151.74; balance on
hand, s24l.33
The salary of the city engineer was
raised S25a month by unanimous vote,
but the raise was declined by Mr..
SWearinger, who suggested that all
the work Of his Office be turned over
to C. b. McCullOh, his assistant,
and that he be allowed to resign.
Mayor Newman paid q high tribute
to Mr.. SWearinger's ability and asked
him to continue in office. His with
draWal the Mayor said, would certain
ly lessen confidence of the citizens and
property holders in the ultimate
success of the WaterWOrks. City
Engineer SWearinger had offer OF a
better salaried position in Great Falls.
A fter explanation by Mr.. Swear
niger Of his reasons for resigning, and
further pleading by Mayor Newman
and the council that he remain in
Hayre's employ until qualification of
his admired labors, the question was
tactically dropped, leaving Mr.
SWearinger in a position at $l75 a
month and with a voluntarily in
creased salary, should he see his way
clear to abandon other opportunities
and tie himself to the interests of
Hayre, which he has already SO
spIendidly promoted.
The bills for May audited by the
scity engineer were audited and all
other bills were referred to the COM
mittee on finance.
The council decided to send a
delegate to the state convention Of
business mems associations and city
councils to be held in Billings June
20. Mayor Newman was authorized
to name the delegate Of the council.

Havre's city council Monday night
did many things, most Of which were
formal and main of which were
perfecting Of the.seWer ordinances and
refusal of acceptance Of the resigna-
ton of City Engineer SWearinger.
Instead, the city engineer was
voluntarily and unanimously offered
an increase Of salary of $25 a month,
generally approved and applauded and
pleaded with to stay by Havre.
City Engineer Swearinger submitted
petition Of property owners in block
6, between Third and Fourth
avenues, Decelles addition, for estab-
lishment Of new sanitary sewer dis
trict, at a probable cost Of 5000. This
was referred to the committee on
streets and sidewalks and the COM
mittee was instructed to make early
investigation.
"A petition Of the O'Brien Lumber
company for Improvement Of the road
about it's premises was referred to
the city engineer, who was given
authority to act.
The street and sidewalk committee
was ordered to immediately report on
the ACCESSIBILITY Of constructing q
crossing at Eighth avenue and Third
street.
M. Miner petitioned for privilege to
build movable lunch counter and to
secure lease for its location adjacent
to the city hall and the petition was
granted. The lease will be revOcable
at will as the city intends to build on
this plot.
The fire department asked for sane
tioning Of inspection of all buildings,
to discover whether gasoline, coaloil
or other explosives are stored therein.
The firemen also desired right to in
Spect all electric wiring in the city
The petition recited that in a recent
a deadly quantity Of both coaloii and
gasoline was found stored. The
petition was granted so far as search
for explosives was concerned, but the
question Of Investigating electric
wiring was put off till the anticipated
arrival of an underwriters expert.
Chief of Police Bickle reported
receipt of $54 for impounded stock
during May.

THE YARN MILL.
Salisbury

Committee on Subscriptions Still
Busy-Outlook Encouraging.
The committee on subscriptions to stock
in the proposed cotton yarn mill for Ellis
worth is still busy. 1t is impossible to
give exact figures as to the amount of
stock so far subscribed for, as the COM
mittee is large one, and many of the
members have not turned in their sub
scription blanks.
1t may be said, however, that subscrip-
tions continue to come in in manner to
warrant the belief that the amount neces-
sary to secure the industry for Ellsworth
Will be subscribed. The amount thus far
subscribed is in excess of the most san
guine expectations of the committee, and
hence the committee feels highly graft
fed.
Among other subscriptions to stock,
none is a better indic4tion of the senti-
ment which prevails in favor OF the mill
than that of Lejok lodge, /. 0. o. F., which
voted unanimously to subscribe $500 to
stock.
The committee is doing its work thor
oughly, and on its own lines. Many men
who will undoubtedly subscribe to stock
have not yet been approached. Work is
still to be done in neighboring towns oi
the county. 1t probably will be another
week before the committee will be pre-
pared to report fully the result of its
canvass

SHOE FACTORY DEAL OFF.
Boston Men Interested Have Invested

Boston Men Interested Have Invested
in Another Industry.
The negotiations for the reopening of
the Union shoe factory at Ellsworth,
which were being carried on between
Boston and Ellsworth men, are off. The
factory will not be started up under
this proposition, but there is reason to
hope that something will be done in the
fall toward starting up the factory.
The falling through of the negotiations
was in no respect due to disagreement be-
tween either of the parties thereto, or to
the condition of the factory in Ellsworth.
Messrs. Blake and Redman, the Boston men
interested, decided to invest their money
in hardwood manufacturing business in
New Hampshire. A letter received from
them this morning notified the Ellsworth
men of this decision.

ACCIDENT AT GREEN LAKE.
Seven Freight Cars Ditched and
Track Torn up for Yards.

Seven Freight Cars Ditched and
Track Torn up for Yards.
GREEN LAKE, July q Especially The
Washington County freight, which passes
through here about a. m. west bound,
met with an accident quarter OF mile
west OF the station this morning. Seven
box cars, loaded with fitted pulp wood,
left the rails. Four of the cars were
badly smashed. The track was torn up
for about 200 feet. The accident is attri-
buted to a loose wheel.
This wreck was the cause of another q
few hours later. The down Bar Harbor
freight, owing, it is said, to misinforma-
tion as to the position of the wreck, ran
into it. The engine OF this train was
somewhat damaged. Charles Boyce,
fireman, seeing that collision was in-
evitable, jumped and injured his back.
He was taken to his home in Bangor. His
injuries are not serious. The engineer
stuck to the engine, and was not injured.
1t was late in the afternoon before the
track was cleared for the passage Of trains.
Passengers and mails both ways were
transferred around the wreck.
