That there will be no further difficulty In establishing the Pottawattamie-Harrison county drainage ditches when the boards of supervisors of the two counties meet in Joint session In this city on August 1 was the opinion expressed last evening by Henry C. Brandcs, chairman of the Pottawatta mie county board. Mr. Brandes spent yes terday at Missouri Valley looking Into the matter. He found that the Harrison county people had been hard at work and had mat ters now In such shape that there would be little or no legal obstacle to the establish ment of the drainage district. At the last Joint meeting of the boards complaint was made that all. of the per sons Interested in the proposed dltchei had not been served with the required no tices, this being alleged to be especially the case In Harrison county. On this ao count the boards decided to postpone action until August 1 so that In the meantime these nonces could be served. Mr. Brandes was given .to understand yesterday In Mis souri Valley that all the requirements had now been carried out and all the proper no tices served. As far as is known every in terested person In Pottawattamie county has been served with the proper notices and now that the supreme court has up held the drainage law, it Is believed there will be no further hitch In the proceedings, although It Is probable that there will be some litigation over the amount of damages allowed some of the property owners through whose lands the ditches will be constructed.

OliiiBiigii 65 MORE LAND FENCERS ARE DP fire Vebrtuia CattUmen Cbarpd with Illegally Inclosing Territory, - WENTY-SEVEN THOUSAND ACRES IN ALL District Attorney Baxter Regards This aa Most Flagrant Case and Is Determined In Ilia rians of Prosecntlon. Information waa filed In the United States district court Monday morning against H. B. Reed on the grounds that he had ille gally fenced tvQOO acres Jf land, and against Adam Miller, Clarence M. Miller. Charles Miller and William O. Miller for fencing lK.Oiio acres of public lands Included In tho 'nlted States forest reservations In Mc pherson county. Capiases were ordered Is sued for the arrest of the accused parties and they will be taken before the United States commissioner at North Platte for arraignment. The cases against these parties have been worked up since the conviction of the Krause brothers of Sheridan county under the direction of United States District At torney Baxter and 8peclal Assistant At torney Rush by Special Land Agents De Frees, Chambers and Dixon. The appropriation of the public domain by Reed and the Millers Is materially dif ferent from that of the Krauses and the Bartlett Rluhards cases, from the fact that the lands appropriated by Reed and the Miners la land not subject to entry and Is part of the land upon which the na tional government Is making Its forest and timber growing experiments. The offense is consequently regarded as more flagrant than that of the Krause brothers. Criminal proceedings are to be Instituted against the accused parties at once. Rot Beginning;, Bays Bnxter. District Attorney Baxter said: "This Is but the beginning of the cases against the cattlemen for repeated viola tlons of the order ot the Department of Justice to take down their fences. We shall prosecute these cases to the fullest extent of the power given us by the gov ernment." The Investigations of the special agents now in the field have developed the fact that the cattlemen have defiantly Ignored the order of the government for the re moval of their fences. The first Intention of the government to proceed against the violators of the order by civil process has been abandoned and criminal action will be Instituted. In order to expedite mat ters the violators of the order, and all who are maintaining Illegal fences, will be ar rested and taken before United States com missioners for their prellmanry hearing and If the evidence warrants, they will be bound over directly to the United States district court, without waiting for the te dious process of a grand Jury Inveatlga tlon.
