The Milestone shearing plant on
Hinton creek, under the management
of Guy Boyer, finished their run this
week and closed on Tuesday. Six
teen shearers have been operating
the plant for the greater part of the
time but the past week there have
been but thirteen on the job The
season has been good one and band
after band of sheep have been shorn
OF their wool and the average fleece
has been excellent; perhaps from ten
to twenty percent above what it was
last season. The Boyer place pre-
sents a lively appearance while the
shearing is on as it requires small
army of men to do the work.

FOREST NOTES.

Angora goats have been used with
profit to keep fire lines clear of in
lammabe vegetation on national for
ests in California.
Last year the fire loss on the Can
adian timber reserves was the small
est ever known, only one-fftieth of
one per cent of the area being burned
over.
Zentaro Kawase, professor Of for
estry at the imperial university of
Toxic, Japan, has been making a
tour of the national forests of this
country to learn the government S
methods of selling timber and of re-
forestation.
More than S5S,000 young trees are
being set out this spring on national
forests in Utah and southern Idaho,
and the season is reported as par
ticularly favorable to their success
full growth.
Armstrong lake, within the Bear
tooth national forest, Montana, is
said to rival the famed Lake Louise
of the Canadian Rockies. 1t lies at
an elevation of 1000 feet surround
ed by towering mountains. A good
road which can be travelled in half
day by automobile connects it with
the railroad at Billings. A rustic
hotel has recently been completed,
and many trails make the surround
ing region accessible.

JUDGE FISK PUNCTUREs BUBBLE
AND VANISHED INTO
THIN AIR.
WHOLE PROCEEDING ORDERED
DIsAussED BY WIILISToN 4
JUDGE, WHO HEARD CASE.


Judge Frank Fisk Of Williston, sett'
ing for Judge Buttz. in the case Of
John Bloom as relator in the manda-
mus proceedings against the board Of
county commissioners and the pur-
chasing committee of this county,
handed down his decision last Friday
and the county won out on every
.poiht, and the whole proceeding was
ordered dismissed BY the Williston
:jurist, with the usual privilege. This
swas.a case conceived IN the ohics=ef
the Democrat Daily. born in iniquity
and brought forth for the purpose of
misleading the Taxpayers. Of the coun-
ty, and also to put our board Of coun-
ty commissioners and. the purchasing
committee in bad light, and the only
consolation the authors of the case
have now is that the decks are clear
ed for an appeal but we doubt if
any appeal will be taken, as the best
attorneys of the county claim there is
no hope of a reversal by higher
court, as there is no merit to the case.
Under the law the county auditor
Of each county is authorized to fur
nish the election supplies, and as this
is one of his important duties he
must exercise much care in seeing
that these supplies are properly fur
nished, and delivered in time, or the
election might be void. He is under
bond to fulfill the duties Of his office
and in event that any mistake is made
on his part he would be liable. The
starter of the action was evidently
afraid that the order for these sup
plies would not be placed with some
printing concern which he was inter
ested in and therefore proceeded to
show the county board and the pur'
chasing committee, that he was big
ger than the county, and here is
where he fell down. The taxpayers
of the county can rest assured that
our board Of county commissioners
are doing their duty and that the
whole affair is only the rantings Of
one who can't get his nose in the
trough, and the decision of Judge Fisk
puts the brand of disapproval on sucf
a proceeding.
