LOCAL MATTERS. J. B. Stevans, residing northeast of I age, died Tuesday morning after an extended illness. The funeral will be Thursday afternoon. The redistricting and consolidation c f rural schools continues to be the 1 rincipal business at the court house and the main topic of interest to rural residents. The proposed new districts will be approximately twenty-five square miles. Pupils will be trans ported to and from the schools at the expense of the districts. Lieutenant Maynard, leader in the transcontinental aeroplane race, broke a crankshaft on his motor while near Wahoo, on his return trip eastward, Thursday noon. He has wired Wash ington for permission to install in his machine the motor of aother wrecked plane. If permission is extended he still has sufficient time to make the change and beat the other contestants, provided no further accidents occur. President Wilson is reported as on the road to recovery, but the true nature of his illness has not been di vulged as yet by the attending physi cians, who content themselves with non-enlightning bulletins issued daily. The statement of Senator Moses that the president is suffering from a lesion of the brain has not been con tradicted. All agree that it will be a month or longer before the president may resume active duty. In the mean time cabinet officers are conducting the affairs of their departments as though < :. .. were the executive head of his _ c a department. Judge Dwyer Resigns. The following article was taken from the Anaconda (Mont.) Standard of October 7th, and refers to a former O’Neill man, a brother of Mrs. C. E. Stout, of this city, and who for many years resided here: “John V. Dwyer has resigned his position as one of the judges of the district court of Silver Bow county, to which he was elected in 1916, and in which he has seen nearly three years’ service. “Judge R. Jackson has resigned as county attorney of Silver Bow county, after a service of nearly three years, and he has been selected by Governor Stewart to succeed Judge Dwyer on the district court bench. “The changes are effective imme diately following the official action of the governor. “Judge Dwyer has wanted to quit the bench for some time and take up again the active practice of the law. He has, however, held ol? his resigna tion at the request of friends until the present time. When he began his term on the bench in January of 1917, he took charge of the criminal and probate division of the court. In that department he sat nearly two years, and made a record for fairness and hard work of which any one might feel proud. When it was decided last year to pass the criminal business around among the three judges in equal lengths of service for the 48 months’ terms, Judge Dwyer took charge of his share of the civil busi ness, the criminal and probate mat ters going to Judge Lynch. “Before going on the district bench, Judge Dwyer had served a term as chief deputy county attorney, resign ing toward the end of his time to rep resent Silver Bow county in the lower house of the legislature. Later he served as city attorney of Butte. He was elected judge while still city at torney, and quit before the end of his term to go on the bench. In every public capacity in which he has served he has made a splendid showing, and leaves the bench with the conscious ness of duty well performed, and the good will of fhe attorneys with whom he had been thrown in contact.” (First publication Oct. 16.)
