DIVISION CASE
NEXT MONDAY

: Now then smile. The supreme
court last week ordered the
county commissioners to proceed
with the organization of Fallon
County or show cause on or be-
tore the 23rd of the present
month why they should not do so.
We und arstand that the commits
sloners are willing now to pass
up any more court troubles and
will Immediately call the special
election for the creation of the
new county. The commissioners
may however put their side of
the case before the supreme
court Monday. The higher court
ruled practically as Judge Hurley
OF the district court did and de-
cided that the commissioners
were IN error in refusing petit
tions for withdrawal after the
first day set for the hearing.
We may look for the special elec-
ton this fall. The commission
ers must call the election soon
and said election date will be set
some time in September or Octo-
Der, when we will vote on the
division question, county officers
and the temporary county seat.
Now then smile. County di-
vision is coming, and it won't be
long either. That's what we all
have been wanting and spending
our good money for. It is not all
over yet however. You remem-
ber us stating last week that

HORSE THIEVES BUSY
Ranchers in Southern Custer trc
Losing Considerable
Stock.

The horse thieves who havc
been operating in Harding and
Butte counties in South Dakota
and the southern part of th.@
county have injected 2 little
vlgor into their systems du~ir~
the past few weeks and reports
from all sections in these coun-
ties indicate that they have beer
making fairly good ''picks' in
every instance. Two weeks ago,
seventeen head were stolen from
the ranch Of Pete Thompson
about nine miles north Of Alza-
da, three head Of horses from
Puerle McCutcheon also near
Alzada and several other ranch
ers along the Box Elder have
reported losses. Near Belle
Fourche several head have turn
ed up missing and Sheriff Hantz
of that place has already a few
suspects under his care. Two
of the rustlers havo been con-
vlcted in Butte county and one
IN this county during the past
month and it is the intention Of
the officers to have many more
over the road before they slack
up their pace. The Belle -Four
che Bee reports that nearly two
hundred head of horses have
been stolen within a radius Of
one hundred and twenty-five
miles of that town during the
past year and that the stockmen
n that section have about de-
,lared 'open season" on the
thieves.

Miss Hazel Lewis. who herself sets
the STANDARD of beauty for tho peren-
Rial ZieFfeid Follies. II doei! Miss
Lewis. who is one of the loveliest
young women on the Amer can stage,
emphatcally insists thai her beauty
has been a serious handicap to her
ambition
"No beautiful woman can prove
she possesses histrionic ability with
out overcoming most serious OBJ
siacles. said Miss Lewis, back

credit for having any sense. Why
could site scores of cases of women
