ALL BRIDGES CARRY
Board Of County Commissioners
Canvass Tie Returns
This Week.

The three bridge propositions
voted on in Custer county On
February 20. carried by sub
stantial majocities. The county

day and canvassed the result of
the election. Those on the board
are r. T. Furnish, w. A Cam
eron and Thomas Butler. The
Miles City bridge carried by III,
there being 1,088 votes cast for
it and 917 against it. The Powd-
er river Improvement had less
opposition than any of the trio,
carrying a majority of 463. The
total vote for it was 1928 and
against TITO. The Fallon bridge
won by 243, 1,1C3 votes being
registered for it and $50 against
it. Six precincts held no elect
ion, but the combined vote of all
the missing precincts would prob
ably not have influenced the final
result to any material extent.

ar, Midland schoolhouse.o Ridge
schoolhouse, Boyes, Rroaddus
and Otter schoolhouse. At
Ridge, the supplies were sent
out February 10 to Fred Beltz

suit Of the election, $500 for
