Robert Mclean, has taken a contract
for driving the Argo tunnel an addition
al 100 feet, and is making good progress.
He expects to put on night shift this
coming week, and will be able to finish
his contract within a month. The in
tention is to make connection by an up
raise with the Cecil shaft, the distance
being something less than so feet. The
ore taken out in driving, is being sorted
on the dump and will be shipped when
a sufficient quantity fas been piled up.
There is every reason to believe that
some of the high grade ore encountered
in the Cecil shaft will 6e reached in the
tunnel or raise, and the connection with
the shaft will remove every obstacle 10
the successful operation Of both the Ce.
Gil and Wallace mines, and permit Of
the extraction of heavy tonnage of
good ore.

made necessary on account of the

The company will build its own power
transmission lines from this city, and is
now placing orders for the electrical
equipment, which includesa a large belt

be signed next week with the Gem
power, and as soon as the lines can
be erected aud the machinery placed
on its foundation the connection will
be made.
There will be great economy in the
use of electricity as at the present time
the company IS Obliged to haul water
for steam boilers. Next year it is pro-
posed to build tramway from the mine
to this city, where the company will
erect its own milling plant, and possibly
manufacture its own electric power.

Secretary of State BlaisdeIl Has
Adopted a Rule Which Ought

Although new in the matter OF
conducting a state office, Secre-
tary of State BlaisdelI goes into
Office with some very good IDEAS
OF systematising his work and
keeping track Of state property
entrusted to his care.
In the past there has been some
comment on the way supplies for
the two houses have been drawn
promiscuously from the secre-
tary's Office, and one of the first
things discussed after the or
ganization of the house was, this
very natter.
To obviate any further COM
plant in this respect Secretary
Blaisdell viii! require every men,
Der of the Legislature to receipt
for whatever he draws from the
secretary's Office. In this way q
check can be made on any undue
demands and an account can be
kept of this class OF expense.
There are other matters in which
Secretary Blaisdell is making
good" aud his personal popul-
arity is not being dimmed by
these new wrinkles in the Office

Slow Torture.

1t ia said that the county will
soon have a new pest house, and
it will be a good thing. The
present pest house isn't fit for a
bird to roost in, let talone putting
a human being in the cold old
shack, and when he is sick in the
bargain. II the county wants to
freeze a man to death, it should
be done quickly. In this day
and age OF the world, slow tor
ture is out OF date. No one in
particular seems to be in fault,
only it seems to have been a
matter overlooked. There is
hardly a day in the year when
the house is unoccupied.
We understand that a new
pest house cannot be erected
without a vote Of the people, but
within a short time, some much
needed repairs will be made.

TURNED MEN OUT IN COLD
Story OF a Mean Deal Given Two
Bowbells Men Caught Out in
the Bitter Weather-SIept in
a Barn.

Robt. Kirsch, accompanied by
a friend, had a hard experience
in getting out to his homestead
in the hills last week. They pass
ed the home of Mrs. Skredsvig
some little distance, when they
found conditions such that they
could proceed no further that
night, and it was up to them to
return to the Skredsvig home
and seek shelter for the night or
spend the night on the prairie,
where the chances were decided
ly in favor of them freezing to
death before morning. They nat
urally chose the former course
and returned to the Skredsvig
house, where to their surprise
they could not get accommoda-
ton for themselves, the house
being full, and got stable room
for the team and were informed
that they too could put up for
the night in the stable, which
they were not slow to take ad-
vantage Of, but in order to save
themselves from freezing were
compelled to walk two miles thru
the heavy snow and bitter cold
to where they had left the sleigh
and bring back the blankets and
robes they had left in the box.
Returning, the boys made them
selves as comfortable as possible
for the night in the stable and
early next morning resumed their
journey to the claim, little over
two miles distant, which it took
them all day to make. -Bowbe)ls

ASKED TO
RETURN
HIS FEES
Grand Jury Believes That Thru
a Mistake, Ward County's
Register of Deeds Has Kept
Fees Which Belongs to County
Willing to do What is Right.

The grand jury investigated
the office of Register of Deeds
Reishus, relative to the fees
which Mr.. Reishus has been COL
lecting and keeping for his OWL
use. Mr.. Reishus collected and
kept, since he became Register
of Deeds more than two years
ago, fees amounting to about
$485. In each case where Mr..
Reishus furnished certified
copy of a chattel mortgage, he
charged the fee of Is cents as
prescribed by law, and kept it,
for the law was not plain on the
subject and many other Register
of Deeds in the state, including
some of those holding this Office
previously in Ward county, did
the very same thing. When the
matter was brot before the grand
jury, they. secured legal advice
and soon concluded that Mr..
Reishus was not entitled to this
fee. Mr.. Reishus told the grand
jury that if he was not entitled
to this money, he was ready at
any time to refund it, which we
understand will be done. How
ever, before this can legally be
done, the States Attorney must
start a civil action against Mr..
Reishus, to recover this amount,
when no doubt the money will
be paid back. Mr.. Reishus is not
to be blamed in any way for this,
and any other man in the same
place no doubt would have kept
the fee thinking that it was his.
The county commissioners re-
Gently voted the county judge,
Nehemiah Davis, a salary of
$4,000 a year; believing that ac-.
cording to law he is entitled to
such a salary. The grand jury
in looking into the matter, think
that an error has been made, and
have recommended that his sal
ary be fixed at $2500 per annum.
The Independent does not know
upon what grounds the jury has
taken this action.
