An error has been discovered In

to learn the following are the par.
ticulars as to how the error crapt In:
The petition for the organization OF
Dunn county described the east boun-
dairy of the county as following the
range line between ranges 80 and 81
to the channel Of the Missouri river;
thence UP the channel of the Mis-
souri, river to the point where the
range line between ranges, 80 and 81
intersects said channel; thence south
along said range line to the 18th
standard parallel: It, is evident that
the petitioners described the boun-
Diary from q map which was not cor
rect. State engineer Atkinson Is au,
.thority for the statement that the
range line between SO and "a, does
not touch the Missouri river until at.
ter 1t crosses the 18th standard par
allel.: The maps published by the
state agricultural department shows
this range - to cross the river in
township $50, whereas it really cross
es the river in township 1853. The
river on the incorrect map being six
miles west of It's true location through
townships $50, ISL and 1872. It is evil
dent that Mckenzie county will lose
