IS BEING FORCED

vxs HE case of the Central Pacific Rail-
road Company VS.. J Aaron Ingalls,
et al. is now being tried in the Dis
trict Court at Reno The case Is one
that has attarcted the interest OF prob
ably every mining man in the west and
involves the ownership of the rich mines
of the Buster group situated in the
Olinghouse district
hTe company claims that the group of
mines Is located on ground to which they
have received a patent from the govern
ment and is therefore the property OF
the company.
a lengthy answer has been filed by
Mr.. ingalls,. the defendant in the case
Ii is contended In the answer that the
patent OF the railroad company was se-
cured from the government by misrep-
resentation, II being known to the agent
of the railroad company that the land
was highly mineralized. 1t is claimed
that for this reason the patent secured
by the company is worthless. Several
decisions of the United States Supreme
Court and different acts of Congress
bearing on the question are cited 10 pear

-Four Municipal Propositions

Brookings has the idea OF
municipal ownership we'll de-
veloped. having more than $780,
900 invested in public utilities,
which are four in number.
Brookings has municipal water,
municipal lighting, municipal
heat and municipal phones, and
all under one management. The
city is exceptionally well lighted
and the whole business section
is heated from the exhaust from
the engines in the power house.
During the past year the city
sold to consumers more than
81, 10000 worth of heat developed
at the power house and dlstrlb-
uted through pipes to the various
business buildings. This ar
rangement is much cheaper to
the consumer than the private
sustain of haa+inn-and the tanaar-
t,cally uniform day and night.
This heat is furnished about
seven months in the year and
while it materially lessons the
hazard by fire it is at the same
time much cleaner and more
satisfactory in all respects than
the private system of heating.
Brookings is the first city in the
state to make a general applica-
ton Of this system of heating
and has found it to be practical
and will extend it to private
properties as soon as the plans
Tor the extensions can be worked
out.
The municipal telephone sys-
tenn has over 500 phones and has
has many rural connections
which make the service valuable
to all patrons.-Sioux Falls
