The matters in dispute be-
tween the parties hereto must
be settletl-in or out Of court
and, as a guide I'm such future
proceedings as may be had, we
deem it proper to express our
opinions upon certain questions
that are presented by the
pleadings-
The organization Of jackson
and Haakon counties was conn
pleted and the transaction 6
public business commenced on
the first day Of February. 1915,
and it u the contention of the
plaintiff that the apportiOnment
of the Indebtedness Of the new
counties to the old should he
made as Of that date. The vote
which resulted in the division Of
Stanley county and the creation
of the new counties was can
vassed and the result announced
on the 18th day of November
1914; and it p the contention of
the defendants that the appor-
tionment Of the indebtedness of
the new counties to the old
should he made as Of that date.
Sec. 3, Ch. 100, LEws ofO7, as am
ended under the provision Of
which tho apportiomment in ques
ton must be made, provides that
the Indebtedness Of the original
county, whether bonded indeb-
tedne3, warrant indebtedness,
or floating Indebtedness.
"Shah be apportnned to
each new division created, ,ratably
upon the basis Of the last equa-
!ized assessment previous to the
division thereof, and each divi-
sion shall be charged with, as
sume and pay In jnat portion oi
/ the said debt upon the basis Od
such appOrtionment."
While this statute does not, IN
terms, declare that the apporti
nnment shall be made ~ Of thu
date of tho division Of the OH
county rather than at the or
ganizsti0n o3 the new, it i
clear from the reference made
to the diyisiop that + was tn
Philip weekly review and Bad River news. [volume] (Philip, Stanley County, S.D.) 1912-1918, 1915-11-25

intent Of the legislature that
made the aPpNtiomment should
t'e made as Of the date Of the
division The question then be
comes: Did the division of the
old county take place at the
time Of the canvass Of the vote
by which the division was made.
or at the time Of the com
|pletiOn Of the organization Of
the new counties' This question,
like the previous one, is not
answered in direct terms, but
the legislative intent is made
clear by the language used in
Sec. 2, Oh. 100 Laws Of 1907.
This section provides that, if the
vote shall be favorable to divi-
sion, the governor shall proceed
to organize the new counties,
but, Until such organization is
perfected the said portion of
such county shall, for criminal
and civil purposes, remain and be
a portion Of such count. Ii
the division was not to take
place until the organization Of
the new counties had been per-
fected. this latter provision would
have been wholly useless and
unnecessary. The territory con
stitutnsg the new counties would
still have remained a part Of
the old county, not for criminal
and civil purposes only but for
all other purposes and this. too,
without any saving clause in the
law.TO attach one county to an
other for judicial purposes, Ol
for any other purposes,ne ,necessari
ly implies the existence Of two
counties; and this Is as true
where one of such counties has
been created out of territory
formerly constituting a part O.
the other, a. where they had
previously existed as separat1
counties, moreover, the legis
lature having provided that
Cor the purposes specifically
mentioned tho new count,
should remain q portion of tn
Original county, it will be con
sidsrsd . separate county TO

themselves on the prepardness

STRIKE ORGANIZERS
| ARE PUSHING DEMANDS

Hartford. Conn. Aug. s.--Organ-
izers of the International Association
of Machinists who are promoting a
ca mpaign OF strikes for an eight hour
day and higher wages throughout the
country. turned from New York today
TO this city. A conference between
the local heads of the union and
President w. III. Johnston and Vice.
President j. j. Keppier. or the Inter
national Union. started this afternoon
and will continue through tomorrow.
Most of the factories turning out
munitions of war for the Allies are
in New England. 1t Is said that every
factory in the industrial section Of
Connecticut. except two corset firms.
Ia making something fer the beIliger-
ents The territory Is also strongly
unionized. The machialsts Intend to
make in this Industrial section their
strongest stand for the advantages
they demand.
The conference today resulted in a
decision to adhere to the plan of CAM
paign already announced by the union
leaders There will be no general
strike. Each factory will be dealt
with separately.
The union men say they will insit
upon the eight hour day. although sew
eral manufacturers have offered
bonuses ms a substitute. II Is said
that this will not be acceptable. A
hhare of the vast profits made by New
England manufacturers from their
war contracts will be demanded In the
form of increased wage scales or
bonuses for work on war contracts.
The number OF New England or
ganizers for the union will be In
creased from sixteen to thirty. These
will take steps In preparation for any
opposition by the manufacturers. The
union leaders, however, are confident
that there will be little opposition, and
few strikes. The recent Remington
Arms Company strike and the conces-
sions made there are pointed to as
an example of what the other COM
panies may be expected to do,

Independent faction in Mexico which
this government might feel obliged to

elements OF tsie problem of restoring

New Government Needs Much.
President Wilson, himself. has been
informed that the new government of
Mexico will be put to the necessity OF
negotiating an enormous loan and that
the funds will not be forthcoming un-
less the United States gives positive
fssurs noes that IL will go TO any ex-

IL may be said on authority That the
President has been advised that mere
recognition OF government In Mexico
City would not OF itself result in q
loan to Mexico such as with be neces-
sary to put that country on Its feet.
The President has been further ad-
vised that IL the United States COM

authority for the statement that men

the new government may endure and
