A letter received from State Sher iff Condit in response to several pro tests from O’Neill over the appoint ment of Glen Anderson as a special state deputy sheriff that Mr. Ander son was not commissioned at the re quest of any Holt county citizens or of State Game Warden Jenkins of Neligh, but that Mr. Anderson came • to him from Elmer Thomas, federal enforcement officer for the state. The letter also states that Mr. Anderson was merely employed as a “Stool Pigeon” to make purchases of liquor and was not authorized to make ar rests or to act in any capacity except that specified. Sheriff Condit also stated that Mr. Anderson, one of two appointed from Holt county, had been supplied with a small amount of ex pense money and had made one “buy” since leaving Lincoln, since which time the state sheriff has not heard from him. The state sheriff also has requested the mayor of O’Neill to instruct the chief of police to take up Mr. Anderson’s conjmis sion. Anderson is now residing three miles northwest of Butte in Boyd county. Extension of the bus line service now operating between O’Neill and Lake Andes, and the institution of a special Pullman sleeper service to the east of O’Neill on the Northwest ern are possibilities of the near future. E. J. Velder, manager of the bus line, is planning to extend the bus route with a daily round trip service between O’Neill and Winner, South Dakota, connecting with a feeder line to be operated from Bone steel to Mitchell, South Dakota, by way of Lake Andes, until the new Missouri river bridge near Wheeler is opened for traffic, when the Mitch ell bus will operate from Fairfax in stead of Bonesteel. Negotiations also are being conducted with the Pullman company to set out a sleeper at O’Neill when the new bus line is in augurated, so that eastbound pas sengers on the Northwestern from O’Neill may retire at 9 o'clock or 10 o’clock in the evening if they so de-/ sire. Bus connections also are to be, arranged so that passengers from O’Neill may connect at Andes with i the Platte-Yankton bus line, making it possible to reach Yankton, Sioux | Falls or Sioux City by bus the same day. * FISH HOOKS AND IKE WALTON CHATTER The local Ike Waltons held a meet ing. in the district court room at the court house Friday evening to listen to the report of the committee on constitution and by-laws and to earn from Major General James McPhar lin of the east half of the county how the crow hunt which ends July 1, is progressing. General McPharlin re ports that the hunt was progressing most favorably, but for fear that spies from the west half of the county might be present in disguise re frained from stating just how many crows had been massacred and how many crow eggs destroyed. The General however informed those pres ent of his new cure for egg-suck:ng bird dogs. The remedy, which he tried out on one of his own dogs, con sisted simply of feeding the dog about a case of crow eggs, since which time the dog "howls and runs and hides everytime he sees an egg or hears a cackle or caw. sit ft ft The mortality rate among the deni- j zens of Lake Andes is expected to be I unusually high the remainder of this ! week. Herb Hammond, Ira Moss,' Mike McCarthy, Will Martin, Ed Al- j len and George McCarthy started for the lake Wednesday morning, un daunted by the reports of bridges and culverts washed out in Tuesday’s storm in Boyd county ajid along the Missouri river. The gentlemen were equipped with an excellent assort ment of frogs and artificial baits and Herb took his new reel along. Mr. Martin, who has made several trips to the lake in the last week, will guide the fishermen to the places in which the bass lurk. * * * The state at last has taken a step looking toward the preservation of fishing and hunting rights to the general public before all the available territory is taken over by the wealthy for exclusive private preserves. A mile of lake frontage has been pur chased from private owners on Rat and Beaver lakes in Cherry county near Brownlee, for a public hunting and fishing ground. The purchase was made through the efforts of the Valentine chapter of the Ike Waltons. This, policy should be continued and frontage secured on many of the lakes of Holt county before it is too late. * * * Bill Martin and Charley Wrede were over to Lake Andes Saturday and Sunday, just in time to get in on some excellent bass fishing as the fish were beginning to bite for the first time this year. They brought back some nice ones. Also a number of bluegills and crappies. This is Mr. Martin’s second trip this spring to Andes. * * * The Izaak Walton League of Bloom field has secured a lease on a tract of land near the place and is going ahead with plans for the creation of an artificial lake forty or fifty acres in extent and which will be fed from wells and from a hydraulic ram in Bazile creek. * * * “77” Wade has equipped himself with a complete new outfit of fishing tools, including an anti-backlash and level winding reel, a jointed casting rod and other juggers too numerous to mention. Bass, bullheads and crogpies along the Elkhorn will please take notice. * * * Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Cowperth waite, Mrs. Ida Peterson and Mrs. Nora Knapp went up to Enders Lake south of Ainsworth Monday and after catching the limit of bass, perch and blue-gills returned home Tuesday evening. * * * Judge Robert R. Dickson and Char ley Scott are up on the lakes south of Wood Lake this week, being en ticed thither by reports of several six pound bass recently captured by the natives. * * * Frank Younkin and a party of friends went down to Swan Lake, Saturday, returning Sunday evening with the limit of large fat bullheads. * * * Cliff Davis has. completed the con struction of a large frog box for Herb Hammond.
