Many Farmers Robbed

Thieving has been running rampant
in Lake and Miner counties the last
thirty days. Circumstances point to
an organized gang of thieves. In every
instance the robbers took advantage Of
their victims absence from home. One
farmer lost thirty-two head of fine
shoats in two separate visits from the
thieves; another fourteen head of
registered Poll Angus cattle, while
many farmers have suffered the loss of
grain; chickens and other property.
Evidence has been found against a
farmer of Lake county, who only
recently sold 800 bushels of flax, but
who did not raise a bushel of that flax
the last season, and his arrest is
expected. The Farmers Cooperative
bank of Winfred has offered a reward
of 500 for the arrest and conviction of
the thieves.

demands for extra pay for extra labor
is granted, a general strike will follow.
The only organization the clerks now
have is of a social character, but steps
are being taken to organize similar to
other labor unions. Senator Crawford
is assured by the department that the
clerks will have a hearing at once:

voteToo Small to be Legal

Carelessness on the part of the
voters has caused the defeat of the
bonds recently voted for sewer extern
sion purposes in Aberdeen. At the
November election 2,035 votes were
cast for governor. AT the bond cleo
ton held on Jan. IL, TO vote $lO0, 900
sewer bonds but 4S9 votes were cast.
City Attorney Harris holds that to
legalize the bonds at least LOIS votes,
or a major fraction IF the total cast at
the general election, is necessary. The
sentiment in favor of the bonds was
almost unanimous in Aberdeen, but
too many voters thought it would carry
anyway and stayed away, 1t is prob
able another election will be called.
