To Naturalize Many

Application for naturalization papers
was made at the Office of County CLERK
j. G. Saunders on Saturday by Rev.
Fr. Dignam, priest of St. Patrick {
church. Fr. Dienam had not been ir
this country the required five years unit
the present time. His witnesses were
E. J. Hughes and Richard Boulger.
Mr. Saunders reports an unprecedented
number of applications for citizenship
and states that the number to be taken
up at the next term of district court will
total over 10.
During December alone he received q
applications. making a total of over 50
up to the present time. These, with
about IS left over from the last term,
make nearly 10 applications already,
with more bound to follow before court
sits again.
Since the new law governing the
issuing of first papers went into effect
in 1906. Mr.. Saunders has issued over
76O such documents. These he can issue
from his Office but the naturalization
papers have to be granted after an ap-
pearance before the district judge dur

Death Of Peter Lenhardt

The death of Peter Lenhardt, whose
serious illness was noted in the PRESS
last week, occurred at the hospital in
Miles City on the night of January 1st
MIR. Lenhardt was operated upon for ap-
pendicitis and seemed to be on the road
to recovery when he ate some food that
did not agree with him and caused
complications which resulted in his
death.
For the last two years he had been in
the employ of the Northwestern Building
Co. as cabinet maker and was con-
sidered very skilful workman. He
was about rs years old with every
prospect for bright future. MIR. Len
hardt was an-unusually capable man and
by his genial habits made many friends.
Mr.. and Mrs. Tom Lenhardt went up to
Miles City last Friday afternoon but
their son was unconscious when they
arrived and only lived few hours.
They returned with the body the first OF
the week and the funeral was held from
St J0seph's church Wednesday.
The paents are grief-stricken and the
mother has been quite ill the past week
as the result of the terrible shock. The
family have the sincere sympathy of
many friends in their bereavement.

INCREASE PLANT
Electric Light Plant to Undergo
Extensive Changes Next Spring.
Building Will Have Frontage
of One Hundred Thirty Feet.

Plans are now being discussed for
enlargine the electric light plant of
Hughes & Deiters in this city, next
spring and the extension and changes
anticipated will rank among the most
important Improvements in Dickinson
in 1902
AS yet the proprietors have not def
nitely agreed upon the changes to be
made. At the present time the SOUTH
ern part of the plant is on land which
the Northern Pacific wishes to use for
its main line tracks, thereby straighten-
ing the approach to the depot from the
west. This will necessitate removing
about Is feet of the present building,
the room now occupied as a fuel and
engine room.
1t is the intention of Messrs. Hughes
4 Deiters to erect an addition 80 feet
in length, facing on Willard street, and
corresponding in design to the present
building. making total frontage of
1870 feet. 1t will be of brick and in
the additional room will be located
uie OOAel IoolA anu PORTION OF tne
engine room.
This addition will extend only part
of the distance to the tracks, but brick
wall will be erected along the railroad
track and the space between the annex
and this wall will be used as private
side track large enough to contain two
coal cars
At the present time the equipment of
the plant consists of two boilers. but
it is planned to put in two additional
boilers. thereby doubling the amount of
power which can be generated. The
plant is taxed to it's capacity to pro
duce the electricity now required by local
consumers.
1t is expected that the work will be
commenced as soon as the frost is out
of the Ground.

Money Pouring In

The month of December was a big
month in the amount of taxes received
at the Office of County Treasurer John
Riessbeck. The money poured in at the
rate of over 500 for each of the ~
working days during the month or 9
total of SIG, 050. 49.
The record for December in 1907 wat
only SIC. OS8. So, a difference of abou,
s.. 600 less than this year. In view Of
the fact that in December, 1908, the
money came from the tax payers Of
Stark county only. while the previous
year the citizens of Billinsg, Bowman
and other counties were represented
also, the months showing is exception.

1t is pretty clear evidence of the pros
perity of the people of this county and
Mr. Riessbeck is greatly pleased at the
way the taxes are rolling into his Office.

BUY NEW BUSINESS
Two Dickinson Business Men Pur.
chase Big Mercantile Stock in
Famous Palouse Country Just
Outside of Spokane.

1t was learned this week that D. S.
Alley and P. H. Rundle of this city had
bought $50. 600 general store stock at
Palouse. Washington, a thriving city of
about 3. 900 inhabitants, few miles
from Spokane, and about IL miles from
Moscow.
The Dickinson men went west short
time ago and the news of their venture
in the mercantile business was a sur
prise to their many friends in this
locality.
D. S. Alley has been head clerk at
the A. 7. Crowl & Co. department store
for year and half. the same position
that he held for number of years pre-
vious to his removal to Canada where he
was in the mercantile business for about
year.
P. H. Rumble has been successfully
engaged in the stock business south of
Dickinson for number of years. It
is understood that Mr.. Rumble is to
return to this city the coming week. 1t
is not likely that he win remove his
family at once as they have good home
here and the children are in the public
schools.
Mr.. Alley, however. will not return to
Dickinson, the new owners having al
ready taken possession of the Palouse
store. where Mr.. Alley is invoicing and
arranging for a big sale. Mrs. Alley
expects to vacate her home on Van
Norden street within a few weeks and
join her husband
Dickinson people will regret to lose
either of the above mentioned families.

Indemnity Of $1,000

In connection with the recent letter
asking for more appropriation for the
work of the state live stock sanitary
board issued by the director, Dr.. W. F.
Cfewe. and the interview with one Of
the members of the board, w. L.
Richards of this city, in the PRESS Of
last week, it is interesting to note
how many animals have been killed for
slanders in this county and how much
indemnity is e..the owners
Most of the cases against the owners
of the infected animals. were before the
county judge, j. van der Las and his
record from April. 1907. to the last of
December 1908. show that a total of "a
horses were condemned and killed, for
which indemnity amounting to ST, O82. so
is due.
According to the law the animals
are Unidentified for one half the ap-
praised value, which cannot be more
than 500. although it may be, and
usually is, less.
Of the "a animals killed in this
county, four were appraised for SIPS,
making the indemnity over the $50
limit, but under the law only $50
would be paid the owners. Twelve were
appraised at the maximum price of
500. two at $50. two at SIS. one at
$65, one at $50, and one at $40. The
$40 animal was a colt which was with
