SAYS RESERVOIR
IS IN 5000 SHAPE
Superintendent Davis Describes
Work of Cleansing Basin to
Water Committee.
MILLS GETS LOVING CUP
Executive Ability of Chairman of
Committee is Lauded to
Skies,

Reports as to the condition of the
bottom OF Marshall Reservoir. now
being cleaned, were more than graft
flying to the committee on water,
which met last night for the last
time during the present session.
Superintendent Eugene E. Davis, Of
the water department, said that no
foreign Substance" of an objection
able character had been found. The
bottom Is covered. he said, with a
deposit of solid mud, comprising a
total OF about IL 200 cubic yards. The
work of cleaning the reservoir Is pro-
crossing rapidly, he declared, and will
be completed In about six weeks. In
the meantime residents who have
been supplied with water from the
Marshall Reservoir are now being
served from the New Reservoir.
Mr.. Davis said that a large crowd
had assembled when the water was
first drawn Off. expecting to supply
themselves with fish. Most of these
were disappointed, there being very
few members OF the finny tribe in the
reservoir.
The present cleansing Is the first
given to the place in question since
the summer Of 1855. At that time IL
was necessary to drain off the water
In order to recover the body of LII
liam Madison, who had been murder
ed. and her body thrown into the
water by j. j. Cluverius. The latter
paid the penalty for his crime on
the gallows, after most sensational
trial.
Following the reception of the re-
port of Superintendent Davis, the
minutes OF the committee were read
and approved. and then, just before
final adjournment, Mr.. Cutchins pre-
scented Chairman Morgan r. Mills
with a handsome silver loving cup. a
token OF the esteem in which Mr..
Mills Is held by his fellow committee
men. In his presentation speech. Mr..
Cutchins paid high tribute to the ex-
ecutiye ability OF the chairman Of the
water committee. referring in partic-
ular to the reconstruction of the
fiume built by former committee.
MT Mills responded briefly, ex-
pressing his appreciation OF the hon
or. He also expressed his regret over
the fact that Mr.. Cutchins is retiring
from councils

FINE TOOL HOUSE
IN CH|MbORAzO
Ward Delegation Spend s1,750
in Converting Structure
Into Meeting Hall.

That sl,T50 has recently been spent
on refftting a tool house in Chimbo
razo Park in order to make IL more
suitable for the semi political gather
ings and club house purposes, 10
which uses 1t Is principally put. ~as
the startling fact disclosed at the finai
meeting OF the Committee on Grounds
and Buildings held Thursday night.
The expenditure was made under
the authorization of the subcommittee
on Chimborazo Park, and the fact was
made known when the members of
this latter body recommended thai, in
view OF the increased value OF the
building. il be insured for $1,000, and
that electric lights be installed.
Ii was explained by several mem
hers OF the subcommittee that the
building. while technically known as
tool house." is. really a two-story
frame structure. the first floor of
which Is fitted as public hall, with q
roof garden above. Several comments
were made by other committeeman
over the fact that such an elaborate
and expensive house should be erected
in the park when such strenuous OPP
position was made to the plan TO grant
the United States government site
for a weather bureau in the same
locality. Mr.. Don Leavy declared that
since these improvements had been
countenanced in Chimboraxo Park for
the benefit of East End residents
something should be done for William
Byrd Park. Accordingly he asked for
estimates on the cost OF refitting the
boat house and the installation of
public comfort stations.
Mr.. Don Leavy also expressed regret
over the retirement from Councils of
Captain J. r. Tucker. Mr.. Tucker
leaves his seat after serving only one
term.
Resolutions OF thanks were adopted
to Chairman Batkins. Sub-Chairman
Melton, City Engineer Boiling and
Building Inspector Beck. The COM
mittee then adjourned.

In spite of the continued drouth the
wheat fields seem to improve and in
most places the heads are filling nice
ly. What is lacking in quantity may
he made up in quality. We believe
the sVarms Of native grasshoppers
that infest the wheat fields are a
benefit rather than damage to the
grain. They strip the wheat stem Of
its leaves consequently the moisture
that would be absorbed by the leaves)
is carried to the head to
assist in maturing the kernels Of
grain. Thus we see that nature is
capable Of turning q serious menace
into genuine blessing.

The Sheaf would advise all farmers
not to sell off their stock at a sacri-
flee On account of the shortage of the
hay crop. The meadows have already
yielded more hay than most farmers
had hoped for, and there is time yet
to grow lot of fodder until frost
come. By exercising care and fore.
thought there can be enough fodder
collected to feed all the stock now,
in the valley over the winter. Els
pecially ought every effort be made to
keep the COWS. Farmers all over the
county have been going into the
creamery business quite extensively
of late years and have found it more
profitable than grain raising. Let no
one think for a moment of abandon.

raising and dairying must always be

spoken very favorably of the candi-

torney and leading men and farmers
from all parts of the county are CIV
ing him their encouragement and sup
port in the race for the nomination.
He is a clean, honest, and upright!
man in every respect, hard worker
and a capable attorney, just the kind
of a man that Marshall county needs
in that responsible Office. During all
the time that he has been engaged in
the practice of his profession in this
county, no dishonest or questionable
act has ever been laid at his door. His
record both as man and as an at
torney is above reproach.

John Lind, like most politicians, has
made some political mistakes in his
career, but if he permits himself to
be influenced to by the siren song
of democracy and enter the race for
the governorship, he will make the
biggest mistake of his life. In going
up against the popular and talented
Governor, A. o. Eberhart, who is the
republican candidate, he will run up
against something much more fOrmid-
able than he has been confronted with
in former campaigns Governor Eber-
hart has satisfied the people since he
assumed the duties Of the Office after
the death of the lamented Johnson
and has proved himself in
every way worthy of, and qualified
for the high Office. Regardless Of
craftsmanship he is as clearly entitled
to an election as anything in politics
can be and the people will see that
he gets it.

Legal Advertisements at Legal Rates.

The Minnesota Supreme Court in
an opinion written by Justice O'Brien
has sustained the validity of the law
passed by the last session of the legis-
lature, recurring all persons buying
milk or cream, for the manufacture
Of butter or cheese, to take out a
state license. This means that
approximately 1900 buyers must pay
a fee of $1.00 forwith or be subject
to prosecution for violation of the
law. The statute went into effect
January list, and at that time about
1900 persons in the state took the ex-
animation prescribed by the dairy and
food commission. R. E. Cobb, st.
Paul dealer, objected to the statute,
however, on the ground that it was
an unwarranted interference with
business and hence uncOHSllCuIlOud1,
and went into the courts with the
case. When this action was taken,
Andrew French, Dairy & Food Com
commissioner stopped the collection of
all fees for licenses, pending a deci-
sion of the case. Mr.. Cobb won in the
lower courts but the state appealed to
the Supreme court and has just won
a decision Notices will be sent out
at once to all persons who passed the
required examination that they may
now get their licenses on payment Of
the fee A warning will be issued to
all others buying milk and cream for
manufacturing purposes, that they
must conform to the statute. One dol
lar pays for a year license.

Friar Lands Again.

Washington.-The Philippine friar
land transactions were again under in
vestigation by the House committee
on insular affairs. Representative
Martin of Colorado continued his
statement celebrating the charges
against the manner in which these
estates had been handled by the
Philippine government. Capt. E. H.
Sleeper, director of lands of the Phil
ippines government, testified regard
ing the transactions. He said that
when E. L. Poole, who has figured in
Mr. Martins charges, called upon him,
he declared that he was representing
the sugar syndicate, but did not ind!-
cate who he was acting for in seeking
a deed to friar lands. He took up in
detail Mr. Martins charges, but his
testimony was along the line OF the
special report of the investigation sent
to Congress by Secretary Dickinson.
