democrats in the appointment.
Messrs Quigg and Bailey repre-
sented the republicans and Judge
Bennett went with Mr.. JeGfries to
Mr.. Goldsmith on the basis of rec
ognizing the latter as an expert
abstracter. 1t devolved itself in
the selection of Mr.. Weed because
of his being entirely out of politics,
familiar with Stanley county and
his well-known ability as business
man.
The satisfaction of the new addi-
tion to the board is very gratifying.
Mr.. Weed had received congatula-
tioos from all partiesT and F. S.

The above little scrap indulged
in by our friends, the commission
ers, County Auditor Quigg and
Treasurer Stuart, is quite amusing
to us who in way are acquainted
with the political generalship of the
combatants. In our mind the nam
ing of M. l.. Weed over l.. E.
Goldsmith was a personal victory
for Auditor Quigg and Treasurer
Stuart, the two county officials
whom we know were the means of
saving the tax payers of old Stan
ley county around SI2, 10000 in
their persistent stand against the
enforcement of that part of the
Richards primary law which called
for the many trips of the county
precinct committeeman at the coun-
ty hub at ten cents per mile. Con-
gratulations boys.

Stanley County Selects New
Commissioners.

The final touches of county divi-
sion closed Monday afternoon when
County Auditor Quigg, County
Judge Bennett and Commissioners
Jeffries and Baddley chose the
three new commissioners for Stan
ley county. The four had agreed
on Ret Dean of the south district
and Ralph Nash of the Hayes dis
trict. But when the Fort Pierre
district was taken up there were
two candidates-M l.. Weed and
L. E. Goldsmith-Messrs. Quigg
and Baddley voted for Weed and
Messrs Jeffries and Bennett voted
for Goldsmith. Being tried, the
auditor called in County Treasurer
Stuart to unloosen the tie and gave
Mr.. Weed the deciding vote. This
was one of the surprises of the
campaign, since Mr.. Weed had
never been m ,ationed publicly for
any political preference. Mr.. Gold
smith having come within one vote
of election over Mr.. Baddley at the
last general election was by court
esy considered the choice of the

Building For Court
House Designated

On Wednesday afternoon the
commissioners who are in session
designated the building occupied
by Attorney A. G. Granger as Jack
son County's first courthouse. This
is the building which during the
campaign just closed Mr.. Granger
offered rent free to the county and
by having the large vault in it,
will make excellent quarters for the
Treasurer, Auditor and Register of
Deeds and Clerk of Courts. The
Taxpayers of the county and es-
pecially the citizens of kadoka,
should feel glad that we have a
man like Attorney Granger among
us as he personally, is donating
the building without one cent of
expense to the tax payers.
A resolution was also passed by
the board allowing for a time, one
deputy, his work to be divided be-
tween the offices of treasurer and
auditor. j. E. Saunders of Inter
ior, who has been deputy treasurer
of Stanley county for the past four
years has been secured for the po-
sition.

The members of the board of
county commissioners of Jackson
county met at the court house on
Tuesday morning and perfected an
organization by electing Commiss-
ioner Frank Coye as chairman for
the ensuing year. This selection
of Mr.. Coye as chairman, the Press
believes will be gratifying news to
every tax payer in Jackson county
as he will be in position to give to
the other members and to the
county in general, the fruits of ex-
perience gained while sitting on
the cid board of Stanley county as
the member from the 5th district.
Immediately after the organiz-
alton of the board the different
county officers present qualified and
up to the hour of our going to press
the following had taken over their
respective Offices.

house.
Constables-Bert Baldwin and

The board is busily engaged in
getting the new county started off
right and it is hoped that by next
week the official papers will be
named and then the proceedings
will be published and every tax
payer in the comfy can keep him
self posted on what is being done
at the county seat.

as stock raising land such land as,
in his opinion, is chiefly valuable

supply, and of such character that
$40 acres are reasonably required
for the support of family.
Section provides that any quail
fed homestead entryman may enter
$40 acres of such designated land.
Instead of the cultivation required
by the homestead law the entryman,
before submitting proof, must make
permanent improvements tending
to increase the value of the land for
stock raising purposes of not less
than SI.25 an acre.
Section 4 provides thar any home
staed entryman who has not sub
mitted proof on his entry can enter
48o acres of land contiguous to his

$I.25 an acre must be made on the
additional entry.
Section provides that any entry
man who has made proof on home
stead, but who still owns and resides
thereon, can make the additional
entry as provided in the previous
section, and make proof on show
ing the expenditure of SI.2s an
acre.
Section s provides, that in case
there is not enough land adjoining,
the entrvman can take designated
land within ten miles of his entry,
but if there is any adjoining land it
must be taken first.
Section 7 provides that if anyone
has a homestead and cannot find
additional land within ten miles, he
may relinquish or convey his home
stead to the United States and take
new homestead of $40 acres of
grazing land.
Section provides that entries un.
der this act cannot be commuted.
Section Q provides that the entry
man shall have go days preference
right to enter land adjoining his
homestead; that where there are
two or more enterymen adjoining
the same tract and it is not large
enough to get 48o acres each, the
Secretary of the Interior is author
lied to divede the land between the
entrymen. II the tract is only 20
acres Il shall not be divided but
will go to the first applicant.
Section 10 provides that anyone
who is owning and occupying his
original homestead may purchase
not to exceed gao acres of grazing
land at sI.75 an acre.
Section II provides for the reser-
walton by the United States of coal
and other minerals on the land en-
tered under this act.
Section II provides that the Sec
retary of the interior shall make all
necessary rules and regulations for
carrying the law into effect.

CITY COUNCIL MEMBERS AND OF
FICIALS OF LIGHT co. AGREE
ON PLACES OF INSTALLATION
Tungsten Lamps of 100 Candle Power
Will be Placed at Every Line Street
Intersection in the City

After a tour of the city by Councils
men Jenkins, Martin and Oberg, and
.sR. Beckman of the Washington Wa
ter Power company, an agreement was
reached looking toward the installa-
tion of 100 candle power tungsten
street lights at every line intersection
of a street in the city. At points
where the old arcs are stationed they
will be replaced by the tungstens and
the company will begin the installa-
tion of the lights at an early date.
The city council has closed a five
year contract with the Washington
Water Power company which provided
the new street lighting system, with
many more lights than are at present
in use and the cost of current will no,
be any heavier. In obscure parts OF
the city which have been without light
service the council has arranged to
serve all parts of the city alike.
