upon his arm, breaking it like a weed.
At this season of the year farm ma

team took fright and started to run.
Mrs. Hall was sitting in the wagon,
which was overturned by the runa-

The little daughter of Mrs. Henry
Bollwine of Edmond pulled suddenly
upon one of the lines, causing the
team which Mrs. Bollwine was driv-

MIS-. Bollwine's right arm was broken
near the wrist in the fall.

Comment on the Prepositls. Tor
Organizing That County.

Organizing That County.
A large number of eastern North
Dakotans are interested in the agita-
ton which is now going on for the
organization of Hettinger county,
there being many people from the old
er portions Of the state who are
holding homesteads in the new coun-
try. In this particular the following
from the Dickinson Press will be of
interest to those who have connec-
tons in any way with that part of
the state. The Press says: A great
many guesses have been made about
the organization Of Hettinger county,
and the end has not come yet. There
are two strong factions at work. one
for organization and the other oppos-
ing organization. There is also a
great number of people who have not
resided in the county long enough to
gain voting residence and therefore
they have not thought so much about
the matter. However, this neutral
class will come to the front after a
few months as legal voters and there
is likely to be some kind of a COM
promise made whereby the county
will become organized. In the mean
time history is being made, much
more rapidly than some persons are
aware. and, the deplay. while a hard
ship to some who have children tn
school, may result in great good in
shaping the destinies of a large and
prosperous county, such as Hettinger
is sure to become.
railroad surveys are being made by
TWO Inherent companies in the country
south, but at the present time no per-
son. not even the companies them
selves, know just where their lines are
going to run in Hettinger county. and
much less the location of towns. some
OF which are sure to become cities
within a few years. After these sur
veys have been settled upon and fhe
people know where the railroad CEN
tiers are to be, the residents will per-
haps know better upon what lines their
county can best be organized.
The location of railroad centers
often times changes the location NJ
county seats in new counties. and
much loss of property results there
FROM
1t is certain that the railroad com.
panies Will settle upon permanent
i.nes carly tue coming winter, and
therefore the settlers of Hettinger
county who are making permanent
homes and who will be paying taxes
for years to come, may be willing to
wait short time. They could not get
schools started this fall If they were
to organize now, allowing that there
were no legal obstacles in the way, of
which 1t is said there are some.
