DISASTROUS NEVADA FLOOD.
Dam Broke, Overwhelming Golconda
Cattle Company Camp.

Reno, New, May 31.-The most dis
astrous flood that has occurred in
Nevada in many years occurred this
morning in Golconda, a small town
about 200 miles from here. 1t was
caused by the breaking of the large
dam in Pole creek canyon, three miles
above the sheep shearing corral Of
the Golconda Cattle company. Five
men were drowned and several are
badly injured.
When the dam broke an immense
volume of water poured down the
canyon, carrying everything before it.
When 1t struck the sheep shearing
corral there were number of men at
work and all of these were carried
away with the flood. Not building
or fence of the Golconda Cattle COM
pany was left standing. The track
of the Southern Pacific railroad was
undermined a mile west of the town
and all trains are eight to IL hours
late. The dead are three Mexican
sheep shearers. Chinese cook and an
Indian boy. All were employed by
the Golconda Cattle company.

Wool Notes From Yakima.

There is slight agitation in the
wool market today. 1t has been caus-
ed by the arrival here last night of
Charles Roberts, wool buyer, repre-
senting the firm Of Koshland Bros,
of Boston and San Francisco.
Mr. Roberts is trying 10 make deal
for 10000 pounds of wool owned by
several growers in the valley. The
wool is of all grades and the price
asked for the entire lot is 10 cents.
The deal may be closed this after
noon.
Yesterday Mr.. Roberts bought 50,-
600 pounds of wool from the Wenner
sheep company for which he paid on
an average of 10 cents. This after
noon in company with Stanley Coffin
Mr.. Roberts went down the road to
Kiona and Kennewick to look over
number of clips down there with a
view to buying them.-Yakima Re-

THE GRAIN BAG TAX.
Two Cents Added TO the Price Since
Last Year.

The Rural Spirit says of the grain
bag situation in the inland empire:
The grain bag market seems to be
in rather excited condition at present
with very small supplies in sight in
the market. Last years prices open
ed high and with small supplies and
bumper wheat crop, there was con-
siderable advance and since the close
of last season cents more has al
ready been added to the price.
San Francisco had the largest
stock on hand of any point the total
destruction of which has no doubt
had quite little to do with recent
advances in quotations. With cloth
high and scarce at Calcutta there
can be little hope for anything but
high-priced sacks this season. When
sacks are at what is considered a mod
crate price the tax is heavy enough
and when they soar to such prices as
they are likely to do this year the
burden on the grain farmers becomes
almost unbearable, especially If the
price of grain happens to be little
off. Necessity is said to be the
necessity along this line is great
enough to demand her mothering
some system that will bring relief to
the overtaXed farmer.
A galvanized iron bin put up in sec
tions and movable, which we saw on
exhibition at some of the agricultural
fairs last season impressed us as be-
ing one of the most meritorious things
the ingenuity of man has recently
planned for the farmer. Its use calls
for the tight wagon box and the ele-
vator at the shipping point in place
of the old style warehouse and open
platform. where the grain is handled
in manner that entails considerable
loss. High priced sacks and lower
priced grain will no doubt be the
means of inaugurating a campaign
for reform in the present general sys-
TEN of handling grain in bags, the
doing away with which would mean a
saving of many thousands of dollars
to the coast every year.

that city, after a series of conferences
here, came to an agreement yesterday

the three companies are. to be trus-
teed with new company which will

the three companies.
In case the new company comes to
terms with the city it will hold the

rights of the stock and bondholders
Of the Union Traction. North Side and
West Side companies are determined
by the courts or amicably adjusted

SENATE BILL No. 81
introduced by Mr.. Cooper
A BILL

A BILL
For an Act entitled: An Act
to authorize cities to purchase
and acquire by condemnation
private property within and
without the corporate limits
thereof, for the purchase Of es-
tablishing, constructing, main
tanning and operating a system
of Water Works for domestic
and other uses, Of the city and
its inhabitants.
Be it enacted by the Legisla-
ture Of the State Of South Da-
kota:
SECTION 1. That the cities of
this state be, and they are, and
each thereof, hereby empowered
Ito purchase, appropriate, dam
age, take and condemn, any
property of any corporation or
person, either within or without,
the corporate limits Of the city,
for the purpose of establishing
constructing, equipping, m lin
tanning and operating a systom
of water works for domestic
and other uses, for such cite
and their inhabitants.
Sec. 2. That the authority
to purchase, appropriate, dam

the corporate limits Of the cities

he has been misinformed. The
article deals with the Elk Greek
water question. It alleges that
Mr.. Willsie was culpably neg
ligent in allowing a bill to go
through the state senate that
would deprive Elk Creek Of it's
water and thus endanger Rapid
Greek. AS a conclusion it is ar
gued that Mr.. Willsie is no fit
man for the state senate. The
is certainly founded
on a a false rumor. The
bill in question did not
specify any particular stream.
1t did not designate any partic-
ular city that was to be beno-
flied. The bill was rather
framed up in such a way as to
make it appear to be a benefit
to the entire portion of the
country hereabout. It caused
no bitter fight in the legisla-
ture as the gentleman would
have us believe. In fact every
senator in the state voted for it,
and there were but two ''nays''
in the lower house.
If the bill was so obviously
detrimental to the Hills, why
did the senator from Mead
county vote for it, Elk Greek
is in Mead county. Why did
Senator Hanley, of Custer, vote
for it, Ho is a man skilled in
state craft. Nc, there was moth
ing in the bin by which its rea
purpose could BE- detected.
And right here we wish TO state
that two lawyers went to Pierre
from Rapid City, and not ono as
the gentleman tells us.
In closing we may say that
one Of the attorneys who went
to Pierre to kill the bill informs
