were on the battlefields fighting in de-
fense of civilization, backed up by mil
lions of loyal and sacrificing men and
women, who were bending every energy
toward a successful prosecution of the
war and y
Whereas, the presence of said A. G..
Townley and his paid assistants in the
city of Salina and vicinity has brought
about condition of stress that endan
gers the peace of the community and
challenges the patriotism of the local
men and women of Salina and vicinity
Therefore, be it resolved that
we heartily approve of the fight of the
officers and members of Salina post No

other radical agitators and paid assist
ants, and we commend the officers and
members of said apost for the orderly
manner in which they are conducting

Helena, Jan. a.-Although but little
time has been spent in the advocacy OF
county division legislation during the
first week of the seventeenth assembly

posed that the party caucus take action
antagonistic to the receipt of new coun-

Rumors now prevail that
an attempt will be made to bring about
an understanding between house and
senate that no county division proposals
be entertained.
While there is more or less talk
about considerable number of new
bills it is very unlikely that any
great number will be introduced and so

extent, these being the Grass Range
project which would cut off big slice
of eastern Fergus county, and the lsmay
project, which would be made up main
iy from Custer county with small sec
tions from Fallon and Prairie counties
The Grass Range project, under the
proposed name of Mckinley county, was
bitterly fought for and against in the

The Ismay project was up in the leg

Opponents of the divisionists contend
that any extensive creation of new coun-

which would be consumed in the as

that it will result in further increase
