to be horse thief wanted in southern
Minnesota. The man was here with
a horse and buggy, and claimed to

q horse belonging to q wheat buyer
At New Richiand MINI, from a iiv.

trading along the way north, to con-
oeal the affair, and an effort will be
made to follow bis trail. The horse
and buggy he brought here he sold to
local parties. He had a team when he
got to Randall and sold one of the
horses there for $37, taking cash

Of julius A. Dresser, the expert &C
countant who has been auditing the

County Debt to be Gil, 5000 and, as
heretofore claimed by all county off,
GERS, the above debt was incurred by
smallpox bills and the equipping Of
our County Poor Farm, the contagious
disease and poor board accounts
amounting in six years to $29, 600
As was to be expected, few errors
were found but the shortages were
made good at once and the County is
ahead by the Investigation As far as
the present corps Of officers IS con-
cerned they were found to have a
clean sheet, hardly any errors being
found aud these willingly adjusted.
