S O'Keeffs Stirs Up a Storm, County Commissioner O'Keeffo has stirred up a storm about Commissioner Turner’s cars. Jtseems the law allows township road supervisors a salary of $35 per year, and when O’Keeffe discovered a biil yesterday of £140.05 sent in by H. R. Andrey, of McArdie precinct, for services in August, he raised a howl which scared Turner, who sought pro- tection of Chairman Mount, Turner is chairman of the committee on roads and bridges, and is supposed to pro- vent _illegal bills from coming before the board without dirccting attention to them. The 35 limit is not obser: in Douglas county, but there is no reason why the super- visors of roads and bridges should not_be held down to a reasonable figure. Thereure about three in the county who make n fat thing out of the business and Andrey is one of them. He does it by working his own men and teams at £8 per day for each team and driver, A resolution was passed yester- day providing that no supervisor shall have pay for more than one team. The suner- visor of Millard precinet put in a biil of $50 for cutting weeds. Looking For Lighthall.

The geologists think this formation belongs to the glacial period. The Regular Way. One evening, a fow years ago, the Washington Post, the late M.
