An investigation was conducted

The psychological aspect of the sit

ton was called to the fact that while
one often hears of the percentage of
people seeking medical advice at hos
pitfalls. one seldom considers that many
peoples seek medical advice because
there are hospitals.
The writer elaborates this idea by
pointing out that in Russia hospitals
are rare. Consequently, in her old

meaning of this language is that
all section lines throughout the
state. not interfering with exist
ing highways in the settled por-
tions thereof, should be open to
the use Of the public, and that no
action by the county commission
ers or the township supervisors is
required to esta blish or open such
highways. Nor can such high
ways established by legislative
authority be lawfully obstructed
by private citizens.
Many persons have heretofore
held with Justice Haney, who dis
sents from the majority opinion of
the court, that section lines can
not be made highways without
the regular procedure required for
opening up highways by petition.
The decision, however, finally
settles the matter and leaves nc
room for further doubt.

Stanley County May be
En1arQed'

1t is quite possible that Stanley
county, already one of the largest
counties in the West-larger, in
fact, than the state of Connecticut
may be enlarged so as to embrace
a greater territory even than at
present.
A bill recently introduced in
congress provides for the opening
up of q part of the Cheyenne res
ervation. The proposed act con-
tains no provision for the organiza-
ton of a separate county, and the
natural conclusion is that, if the
bill becomes a law. the new terri
tory opened for settlement will be
added to the adjoining counties al
ready organized. This may mean
that the area of Stanley county is
to be considerably increased.
In this connection, it will be
remembered that the old counties
of Stirling and Armstrong at one
time extended beyond the Chey-
enne river, but when they were
joined to Stanley, this county as
sumed only it's present territorial
jurisdiction. Naturally, it would
seem that at least the territory
embraced at one time in Stirling
and Armstrong would be annexed
to this county in the event of it's
being opened for settlement.

Business Men Meet.

The Philip Business Mems As

the Harrell & McLane hardware
store for the purpose of consider
ing the general problem of county
division.
A movement has been on foot
for sometime to bring about =
general gathering or convention
of delegates from the various
towns and localities in the county
interested in the question, and
this led to the meeting. A COM
mittee was appointed to confer
with the business men of Fort
Pierre next week in regard to the
proposed convention. The men,
bcrs of the committee are the
president of the association, w.
+. Harrell, r. A. Bielski, Ander-
son Michael and Alvin Waggoner.
There was general discussion
of the subject, and various sugges-
tions made, but no action other
than the appointment of the above
committee was taken.

Stipes Wins Out

Sometime ago action was com
menced by the government for the
purpose of cancelling the home
stead entry of Louis La Point
located near Nowlin. }. w. Stipes
had become transferce of the place
after it was proved up and was
joined as a defendant, and was in
fact the real defendant.
At the time the case was tried it
was commented on quite generally
by the newspapers of the state.
The government was represented
at the hearing before United States
Commissioner Byron L. Glow by
George G. Hunt of Fargo, N. D.,
and special effort was made tc
secure evidence necessary to sup
port cancellation. Stipes was
represented by a local attorney.
The decision in the case has just
been announced by the Hon. Chas.
l.. Brockway of the Chamberlain
land office, and the case is thereby
dismissed, leaving Stipes in un-
questionable possession of the land.
This ends a controversy of long
standing in which the government
has failed twice to secure an in
dictment against Stipes for land
frauds, and has now failed to secure
a cancellation of the entry.

Bad River Telephone
Con1Dany Organized

The stockholders Of the Bad
River Telephone Company held
thei> first meeting last Friday
night at the Bank Of Philip. Di-
rectors for the ensuing year we're
elected, and other routine business
transacted. The officers Of the
new company are: Albert Rifen-
burg of Nowlin, president; Walter
Guyer of Olney, vice president;
John A. burlington Of Wokama,
treasurer: and Herman A. Patter-
son of Nowlin, secretary: and these
together with J. G. Morgan Of
Nowlin constitute the board Of
directors.
The company has a capital stock
of ten thousand dollars, and will
have it's principal Office at Nowlin.
1t proposes to build a line that
will extend along the Bad River
valley and eventually connect Fort
Pierre and Rapid City.
1t is planned to sell the stock
among the people who are patrons
of the line, and give it as general
a distribution as possible. An at
tempt will be made to construct a
line and system that will be first
class in every respect, and at the
same time give the service to the
patrons at very reasonable figure.
At the start the line will be con-
structed between this place and
Midland.
