The taxpayers of Gilmore County
are urged to carefully consider the
effect Of local option upon nearby
towns. Since the election in Canyon
County much uneasiness is felt in real
estate circles, and the question Of
the irreparable damage which has
been done is being openly discussed.
One large building in Nampa.
which it was planned before election
to erect to a height of three stories,
viii rise only one story, and several
projected building improvements are
being held up pending an adjust
ment of conditions. 1t is an open sec
ret that if the citizens OF Canyon
County had the privilege of again vot-.
ing on the Local option question,
the majority would be greatly a.
gainst the proposition. This shows.
how the people regard the late ele4
etion. They plainly see that their
business interests are much effected,
and are now seeking a way to rid
themselves of the obnoxious law
which they recently voted on them
selves This indicates how popular
Local option is with the people.

THROUGH TRAIN SOON.
Will Go Through Miibank Without
Stopping. Will BE Strictly
Fast MAIL

Milbank residents may soon
see a fast mail train speed
through the city, east and west,
at rate Of so miles an hour,
without getting cnance to hirt
with the engineer. A trial trip
was made a couple of weeks ago
on a proposed time card, and it
was found that mail could be
carried to Seattle from Chicago
at the present time as quickly as
over the Northern Pacific. The
new train may be put on yet this
month, but at any event by the
first of the year. 1t will be strict
ly fast mail train. carrying no
passengers, and will make but
one stop between MoItevideo
and Aberdeen, which will be
probably at Summit, for water.
The time between these two
points will be a trifle over three
hours. The east bound train
will probably pass through Mil
bank about four p. M, passing
the west bound local at Orton.
Vile. The west bound mail will
go through this city in the neigh
borhood of eleven a. m. 1t is
understood that the postal de
partment will divide the coast
mail from Chicago between the
Northern Pacific and the Mil
waukee.

everyone IN this part of Grant
county and Roberts county and
is large owner of Milestone
valley land. Phil G. Saunders,
assistant cashier of the Mer.
chants National bank of this city,
needs no Introduction to the peo.
pie of Corona and vicinity. Mr..
Belgium, cashier, has been con
nected with the Roberts Coun-
ty bank since it's organization

ways been found an obliging and
capable official for the bank, hav-
ing worked up a good business

Railroad Extension.

Sisseton Courant: The G. M.
& st. Paul Ry. Company haye at
last begun to complete the Sis
seton branch around the hills to
Aberdeen. They have been
promising to do so for 80 years.
A surveying crew began work
last week from the end of the
line here and have worked in a
northwesterly direction into
Bossko township. If 1t con.
tinues in the same direction
it will go east of Veblen a short
distance. 1t is presumed the
new extension will encircie the
hills on the north at the lowest
possible grade aud the sbortes
route to Aberdeen. The line
will cut the Andover line about
at LaDgford and enter upon the
main line again near Groton.
This will avoid all trouble of
high grades west of Milbauk, do
away with the. necessity of two
engines on all trains and also
snow blockades in winter, thus
assuring fast time to the coast
with the mail train which the
company expects to put on soon.
Thus Sisseton will be on the
main coast line aud the road will
tap one of the richest territories
along the Milwaukee system.

A. E. Leach's Auto Kills BOy.

Mr.. A. E. Leach, who recently
disposed of his machine shop
and garage in this city has been
travelling by auto IN Iowa, and
LAST week the cause of a fatal
accident, but of which he was
not in any way to blame, accord
ing to the reports in the papers.
'fhe accident occurred atGeorge,
Ia, on the 8th inst, and the
account in the Sioux City Trib-
une was as follows: While at.
tempting to flag an autom noble
by running before it and waving
his hands, Reinhard, the 6 year
old son of Dick Schmidt, was
struck by the lamp on an auto
Monday afternoon and instantly
killed.
The machine which was
occupied by A. E Leach and
family, of Mllbank, S. D., was
passing through town. when a
bunch of children fiocked into
the street and nadeademonstra-
tion by waving their hands. The
driver turned the machine TO
one side of the street, but was
followed by the boys, who step
ped one side only when the auto
was nearly upon them. The
Schmidt boy overestimated the
distance and failed to get clear
of the lamp, which crushed his
life out. The father of the boy
placed no blame en- Mr.. Leach,
who was driving the auto, and
other witnesses of the accident
say that he did everything possi-
BILE to avoid it.
The boys we're all trying to dis
play courage by standing as
nearly in the road as possible
when the machine passed them,
and the accident is the result of
their lack of caution.

a dangerous condition until
Thursday night, when the dis
ease took on fatal symptoms.
The remains were taken to MIN.
neapolis by the parents for
burial, where another child OF
the family is inferred.
The little girl was six years OF
age last month, and was a partic.

and the afflicted family have the

sad affliction.

which he expects to bring home

Owing to the heavy business
on the Sisseton line an extra
train, entirely freight, is sent
out every few days to clean up
the excess freight and cars.
