been appointed county com missioner
from the 1st district to fill the va.
cancy caused by the resignation Of
j.. c. Leach, the last Of the three
original commissioners appointed
by Governor Hanna when Sioux
county was first organized.
Mr.. Leach's resignation was pre-
.sented the county board at the
special meeting last Thursday II
then became necessary, according
to law, to appoint Immediately a
commissioner from the 1st dis.
trict to fill the vacancy thus caused.
The appointment in such cases is
made by an appointing board, con-
sisting Of the remaining commits.
fsioners, the county auditor and the
county Judge.
The lat commissioners district,
as well as the whole county, is. in
deed fortunate in the appointment
of such a man as Mr.. Schimansky
to the important Office Of county
commissioner. He is a successful
business man, accurate, alert and
absolutely dependable. From ac-
tual experience in real dirt farming,
he understands the needs Of the
farmer. But above all, Mr.. schi-
mansky has established for himself
q reputation for integrity and
square dealing that insures to all

Mr.. Chart, who is now the senior
commissioner, will make a competent
and impartial chairman. When the
board organizes next January, he
will have about six years advantage
oyer the other commissioners in
point of service.
I 1t had been known for some time
that Mr.. Leach wished to retire
from public service. He wished to
resign last year at this time, but
because Of the bond sale negotia-
Stions then pending, he was pur.
.suaded to postpone his resignation
{ Mr.. Leach has reached that pleasing
age when he can we'll afford to seek
the restful paths of life, leaving the
cares and trials OF county manage
tnent to younger men. 1t is,
though, with genuine regret, that
the many friends Of Mr.: Leach re-
gard his retirement from the office
which he filled so ,capably and hon.
Iorably for 50 long a period, during
which he helped to guide the new
county, the Youngest in, the state,
well on the road to prosperity and
increased development. Sioux
county owes ~. G. Leach a debt Of
gratitude for the faithful and un-
selfish service which he has given in
its interests. And it is the wish OF
all that he may live to see this
county, 80 rich in undeveloped re-
sources, attain that full degree Of
rus eapexity and Developments oi

The inscrutable, the tantalising,
the deceptive desert furnishes the
scene for this story Of the Mexican
border. It opens with a prologue
in which two men, lost in the ex.
panse Of sand and cactus, discover
gold just at a time when, overcome
by weakness and thirst thev can 60
no farther. The desert becomes
their grave, but one of them con.
trives to leave a record that is found
in later times.
The rest Of the story, dealing
with people intimately related to
the unfortunate gold seekers, des-
cribes q recent uprising along the
border and ends with the finding Of
the treasurer, which the prospectors
had willed to the girl who is the
heroine Of the story.
It is Zane Grey at his best, treat.

the old west, but showing that in

which the march Of progress has not
affected and in which romance and
adventure are as alive as they were
in Pioneer days.
