DITCH VIEWERS
FAVOR ENTERPRISE
Proposed New Ditch into Meeker
County Will Be of Great
Benefit 10 Lands.
EXCAVATING MAY BE COM
MENCED NEXT SPRING

A. J. Smithson of Hawick and
Ole H. Halvorson and Charles NJ
Holm of Meeker county, viewers
for the proposed judicial ditch to
run from Little kandiyohi lake and
Lake Waconda south into Meeker
county, who have been at work for
the past three weeks going over the
route and estimating the damages
and benefits to the several land
owners, have finished their field
work and are now in session at the
courthouse working on their report.
They express themselves very much
in favor of the proposed ditch. as
the amount of land benefited is
unusually great, making the cost
per acre benefited quite low in
deed, the estimated assessment be-
ing from two to eight dollars on
reclaimed land and nine dollars on
meandered tracts, with the proba
bility of its being less when the
actual contracts are let.
The ditch as laid out in the sur
vey is 35 miles in length and will
cost about $45 900, Of which s. 900
wilt be paid by the state.
The viewers state that the plans
will be practically accepted as made
by the surveyors. with the eXcep-
tion of two changes which they
think will be Of considerable say
ing. They expect to confer with
state surveyor Ralph today, and it
is very probable that the former
will incorporate these changes in
the plans.
The ditch proceedings will prob
ably come before Judge Powers in
January and if the outcome is IA
vorable work Of excavating will be
begun next spring.

FIRE DESTROYS

Anna Carlin Building Is Almost
Completely Destroyed by the
Flames Monday Night.
SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION
STARTS FIRE In The STOVE
But at a Somewhat lnopportune
Season and Hour.

The stiffness of a perfect sum-
mer's night was broken Tuesday
morning at 2:l5 o'clock by the fire
whistles alarming noise. The fire
was in the Anna Carlin building
just west Of the Kandiyohi County
Bank building. 1t had gained a
considerable headway and the
flames were shooting skyward, il
Illuminating the surroundings with
its red glare. The fire department
responded promptly and soon had
the blaze subdued. The building
was completely gutted. Mrs. NJ.
H. Lucas, the milliner, was the
tenant, occupying the back rooms
as residence. With her family
she had gone, to neighbor tc
spend the night.
Night Patrolman Christensen and
Sivert Benson were the first on the
scene Of the fire to break inuo the
house. The theory as to the
origin of the fire is that it caught
from an alright stove. Pieces Of
cloth and rubbish had been accufn
ulated in the stove and had become
ignited by spontaneous combustion
or otherwise. The people in Ben
sons plumbing shop had felt the
odor of burning rags all day Mon
day. It is thought that gas had &C
cumulated and an ignition hac
blown off the top of the stove an(
blown down the stovepipes. Ha(
there been a breeze from the north
west the fire might easily have
proven more serious than it did
