BOARD ACTS FAVORABLY ON THE MATTER npervlsor Brandes Issues a State ment Showing How Pnrrhaac of Poor Farm Has Save Money for County. Wlckham company will carry out their contract awarded them In 1903 for the con struction of the Pigeon creek ditch. Prop erty owners who will be benefited by the proposed drainage ditch are extremely an xious that there should bo no further delay In commencing work and they and Wlck ham company have come to terms and at yesterday's session, of the board of county supervisors both the promoters and AVIckham company appeared by their attorneys and requested , that the board recognize the original contract with Wlck ham A company. After some discussion the board rescinded its recent action de claring the Wlckham contract cancelled and ordering the county auditor to re ldvertlse for hew bids. Attorney Organ appeared for Wlckham A company and tin iromotera and others interested In the lltch were represented by former County Attorney Klllpack. The board adopted a resolution declaring that the work of construction of the ditch must be completed by January 1, 1907, pro vided, however, that In the event of delay In commencement of the work, caused by failure of the engineer In charge to com plete the preliminary work before May 1, then the time for the completion of the construction fdiall be- correspondingly ex tended, . The board by . resolution further directed that Wlckham & company should proceed with the work without unneces sary delay. It was stated that Wlckham & company were prepared to commence work as soon as the engineer set the stake and laid out the route of the ditch. The contract awarded Wlckham & comp any In 1903 provided for the payment of 14H cents per cubic yard and it could not be learned yesterday whether under the agreement reached between the company and the promoters, this price was still to be In force or whether Wlckham & comp any had consented to do the work at a lower figure. Mast ray for Mistake. The Marne & Elkhorn Telephone comp any petitioned the board for a reduction in Its tax assessment. It having reported to the state executive council by mistake a mileage of four miles In place of two miles. The assessment having been fixed by the state executive council, the board decided It had no jurisdiction. The report of the county treasurer for - e -t fii"irter of the year showed that the fees of the office were $239, while a similar report from the county auditor showed the fees of that office for the same period had been $288.75. The quarterly re port of Sheriff Canning showed fees taxed, .11, 222,23; fees collected, 3938.01; mileage, $119.00; due county, $819.01; balance due sheriff for salary and one deputy for quarter, $77.36. The report of County Recorder Balrd for the first quarter showed 2,269 Instruments fled, , for which the fees amounted to f.529.10 and by months aa follows: January, 'SO filings, fees. $100: February, 669 filings. feer $457.30: March, 990 filings, fees, $659.t. The board adjourned to next Tuesday afternoon. Poor Farm Statement. Henry C. Brandes of the Board Of County , Supervisors, who is chairman of the committee in charge of the county farm, yesterday Issued the following state ment regarding that Institution in order that the taxpayers of Pottawattamie county might understand the saving to the county by having such a place to care for its poor: For the Information of the taxpayers of Pottawattamie county and to show ex actly what the results have been from the cAunty farm method of providing for the county's dependent poor, I desire to call your attention to the following comparison between the amount paid out by the i m t r t rw , h. a 1 1 1 .r.i.r, r, I t m , . i i n 1tfc HKainsC Illm DV MlHM Anna Komi., nf uuirir In .. u,.7irH i.i. ttie year Derore tne rarm was oougnt, a from the county jail by marrying the 5?' of "I1" fr them ln 'he flr8t young woman.

The effect of these ad verse conditions Is Illustrated by the fact that there were during the yar eleven deaths,- nearly a,l of them patients who were very old and most of them bed-ridden. The above figures, showing a saving of over $13,000 under the present over the former plan, should settle Anally and con clusively all questions whether It pays to have a county farm. That question has been discussed by taxpayers of the county tor the past fifteen or twenty years. It waa voted on In 18x8 when the Board of Supervisors asked for l'.u) for the pur chase and equipment of the farm. It was defeated by a lance majority, chleflv on the ground that the firm had not been lo-' cated. In 1897 the Board of Supervisors secured an option on the Henry Cook farm of BIO acres at $o5 ner acre, hut the prop osition again submitted at that time was defeated.

Two bolts of silk were stolen Friday afternoon from the store of the A. 1. Hunter company, by two fashionably dressed men.

Superintend ent Brritt Is well known th counlv over as a good manager, with a kind and gen erous heart, snd it is not surnrlslng that the board has heard no complaints from Inmates of the farm regarding the treat ment they receive.
