MINOT IS SPENDING
$4,000 FOR WATER

Minot, April 16.-work has been
started on the construction OF the
$68,o00 reservoir being built in con-
nection with Minot's new water sys-
tenn. When the reservoir is COM
plete, this city will have one Of the
most up-to-date water systems in the
northwest. The water supply is Sc
cured from deep wells within the city
limits. Heretofore. the water has been
taken from the Mouse river but of
late years the river has become so
low during the months Of July and
August that it is pronounced unfit for
drinking purposes. Analysis of the
water secured through the deep well
system, proves the water to be of
very high quality.

bill, which appropriates 100000 for

state auditor said:
when I was at Dunn Center a

formed me that thirty families moved
out of Dunn county last year on &C
count of poor crops and other condi-
lions. Now, there is no question In
my mind that IL some of these families

four or five hundred dollars from The

Denouncing the Brinton printing
bill graft, Kositzky said:

that all printing should be let on SON.

that no one would object to a law of
that kind, but people will object to

Remembers Macdonald.
The state auditor also paid his re-
spects to Neil c. Macnolad, unwil-
lingly off the state payroll at present.
Il do not believe Mr.. Macdonald did
the right thing when he refused to
turn over the Office Of state superin-
tendent of public instruction to Miss
Nelson after she had received a ma
jority of over 5000 votes, and I don't
believe in a law which will make a
figurehead out of an official who was
elected by the people. That is what
the board Of administration law does
with Miss Nelson. I think Miss Mel
son is able and competent and can run
that Office without. the, aid Of an ap-
pointed board placed W her depart
ment. If she is unable to fill the po-
sition, then let the people speak at the
