NEWMAN GROVE, Neb., May 10
Eric Johnson. cashier of the New

The Greater CITY

The growth of the residence dis
trict of Miller in the past year has
occasloned much favorable comment,
and Judging from the rapid sale of
lots which are put on the market,
the building era has just begun.
Three additions to the city have been
plated on the east, northeast and
west, and the growth continues in
other sections, as well.
The first addition, Park Row, on
the east, has enjoyed a remarkable
growth, and at the beginning of this
season, nearly every location is
taken, and two complete rows of
modern houses line the road to the
Fair Grounds. A cement sidewalk
is expected to be laid from the opera
hou#h clear through to the Fair
Grounds on the south side, and
doubtless the walk on the north
side will be extended the same dis
lance.
The other two additions, Dublin
and CoquilIettc's addition, were
plated more. recently, but many
lots in them have been sold and this
summer will witness the erection of
numerous new buildings upon them.
The locations are good ones, and
the city is bound to grow out in
these directions. Besides these adj
ditions, the part of the city in which
the growth has been most notice
able, is the northern part. A drive
through that district discloses such
d complete change in the past year
and a half as to make it scarcely re-
c~ognizable. Vacant lots have been
filled in and streets extended, to a
remarkable degree, and new houses
have sprung up on every side.
This extension and building up of
the residence district is positive
proof of the solid growth and pros
perity of the town. and is only one
more eqidence of the fact that Mil
Ter has left her village days far in
the dim and distant past.

BIGGEST ISSUE
Manv South Dakota Cities Fought
Out This Question Tuesday

The big universal issue of the city
elections over the state Tuesday was
that of the licensed saloon. and the
returns show many surprises on both
sides of the question. Chief among
the big victories for the prohibitlon-
lists were the results in Pierre, Fort
Pierre, and Redfeld. Pierre went
dry by a majority of rs for the first
time in many years, and Redfeld by
104, as against a majority of l wet
last year.
Faulkton and Miller are among
the towns which changed from dry
to wet this year, and Highmore and
Washington both went as usual, al
though the wet majority at the for
mer place was considerably reduc-
ed. Following are the results in the
nearby towns.

Result of City Election Furnishes
Surprise of the Year

The citizens of Miller were given
the surprise of the year Tuesday
evening, when the result of the city
election was flashed over town. 1t
was the general opinion that the
vote on the license question would
result as it did last year, when there
was a majority of Al against, but as
is so often the case IN politics, these
premature calculations were decided
" astray. The total vote for license
was 1T, against, 100, and 5 blanks,
making a majority of II. The first
ward gave a majority of 3 for, the
second 80 for, and the third q
against. counting the blanks.
The contest on aldermen vas de-
cidedly close in both the first and
third wards. J. 7. McCullen winning
in the former by a majority of five,
and Clinton Crabtree in the latter
by one Daniel Walsh was the win
ner in the second.
The total vote cast Tuesday was
342, by far the largest ever polled
at a city election. The vote last
year was 273. This would indicate
a most substantial growth in the
city's population for the past year,
placing it pretty close to the 1900
mark.
