STATE ENGINEER
LOCATING WELLS

PIERRE, Aug. 16.-The weather
conditions west of the Missouri this
year has started boom in the sink
ing of artesian wells, and the state
engineers department is being called
upon frequently to attend that branch
of the work. Assistant Engineer
Green is now locating two wells in
Rolling Green township, in northwest
ern Lyman county, and petition
was filed yesterday asking that four
wells be located in Vivian township
in the central portion of Lyman. Pc
titi0ns are also on file for the location
of wells in several other townships
in Lyman county. All of these wells
are to be sunk at township expense,
and the purpose of the project is to
so locate the wells that their flow can
be diverted into the different draws
in t he township to give as much of
the area of the township as possible
a flow of water.
Specifications have been completed
and advertisements for bids prepared
for the sinking of the we'll in Meers
township, Stanley county, the bids to
be opened at Meers within a few
days. So far the sinking of wells in
Stanley county outside of the valleys
of Bad river and along the Missouri
have not been the most successful,
and the work is not being pushed in
that county so strongly as it is in
Lyman, but several townships want
to make a try at it, and hope to Sc
cure wells which if they will not flow,
will bring the water near enough to
the surface that it can be pumped
with wind engines, and allowed to
flow in that manner. The agitation
for the flowing wells has not been
active for number of years which
have brought large amount of rain
fall to the western part of the state.
but the past two years has again at
tracted the attention to the manner
of securing water, and great deal
of work will be done in that line.

Especial to the Trlbune)


GRAND FORKS, Aug. 16-The no.
tel men of the northwest are assem-.
bled in convention at Grand Forks
today and there is a good attend.
ance. Many attractions are offered
the guests of the city who are enjoy
ing themselves to the limit.
That paper that was to have been
delivered by Rome Miller Of Omaha,
was read to the convention this after.
noon by VIM. Anderson, chief clerk of
the Rome Hotel of Omaha. In this
paper Mr.. Miller takes occasion to
voice his opposition to the plan of
creating an association mutual fire
insurance company, predicting that If
such action should be taken that that
would eventually be the shoal upon
which the association craft would be
wrecked. Referring to convention
resolutions, he said that principal
trouble with them was the fact that
when the members of a convention
resolute, they go home after the meet
ing and that is the last that is heard
of the resolutions until the next con-
vention is held.
Concerning the proposed hotel leg
islation. Mr.. Miller favors the pub
licity plan, and believes that best re-
suits can be obtained through it.
Troubles of the country hotel own
er are many according to c. A. Klaus
proprietor of the Gladstone Hotel at
Jamestown, N. D. In his address be-
fore the convention this afternoon he
declared that the travelling public
despite the fact that hotels all over
the country make charges for outgo-
ing telephone calls, always make COM
plant on such charges when they are
made by the hotel in the smaller city,
The labor question is another that he
pointed to as being extremely trying
for the hotel owner of the small city
as the question of securing new SER
wants is one that's extremely difficult
to solve in many instances.
Tonight's program provides for the
entertainment of the guests at Lin
coin park, which win be given fol-
lowing an automobile ride about the
city.
The hotel owners also remain here
Thursday when the election OF new
officers and selection of the next place
of meeting takes place.
