, The Poor Farm Proposition.

The county commissioners will, on
election day, March II, endeavor to
ascertain, by means of the ballot, the
sentiment of the voters anent the con-
templated poor farm for Mile Laos
county-that is, the question will be
submitted to the people. They are
asked to vote either for or against the
proposition. Upon the vote thus OBJ
tanned the county board will base it's
action-it will be a guide to the COM
missioners in determining whether
they shall purchase land for poor
farm or change the present method of
the county caring for it's poor to that
of the township system, in which case
each town would have to provide for
it's own dependents.

ROAD BILLS PASSED.
X. c. Dunn's General Road rleasure
Passes the Senate With Only
Two Votes Against 1t.
Swanson, Who Pretended to Favor
the Bill but Worked to Defeat
q 1t, Cast One of These. a... g..

&. G.. Dunn's good roads. bill,
House = File No. 259, came up on
special order in the senate yesterday
and was passed by an almost unani-
nous vote, Swanson of the Forty-ffth
district and one other senator being
the only two who voted against it.
While pretending to favor the road
bill it is known that Senator Swanson
worked hard against it, but the
weight which his arguments carried
is shown in the vote by which it was
passed. The measure which passed
the senate yesterday is the general
road bill, which provides for corps
of competent engineers and road
builders \. to supervise the work of
road improvement throughout the
state and provides for the levying of
one-fourth of a mill state road tax.
r. c. Dunn's other good roads bill,
which provides for the submission of
an amendment to the constitution that
will enable the legislature to levy a
one-mill state tax for road and bridge
purposes, also passed the senate at
noon today by practically unani-
nous vote.
