At the annual meeting of the board of

county commissioners, held yesterday

afternoon, the 'board unanimously re-elected Charles Wilkins chairman. George

M. Benton addressed the board on his ap-plication to prosecute the bondsmen of allsaloonkeepers who violate the law byBelling liquor to minors, keeping open aft-er hours or in any other manner. Theplan outlined by Mr. Benton is to smokeout the violators of the law, have them

fcriested and upon conviction sue theirbondsmen.

In addressing the board he said he

realized the stupendous nature of thetask, and of the risk he was about torun, but if given the permission he saidhe would put the spurs to the sides of

his philosophic and altruistic purpose andprosecute the violators of the law to astandstill or a finish. The subject wasreferred to the committee on ways andmeans and the county attorney.

The board proceeded to the election ofthe several officers and employes. All of

the old employes were retained but twojanitors, who were given a month's no-tice. The latter are Andrew Johnson andHans Ustrup, both of whom are goodmen and industrious workers. It is sus-pected that they are dropped for politicalreasons only. All of the elevator menwere reappointed, as were the assistantengineer and the following officers: Su-perintendent of poor farm, George W. Co-burn; county physician, A. J. Golden;chief engineer of the court house, WilliamRobertson; head janitor, Frank Lane;morguekeeper, John F. Walsh; elec-trician, G. R. Scott.

A communication was received from thecounty attorney calling attention to aboutforty-five cases in which bonds of saloon-keepers have been defaulted. The countyattorney said thirty wtre of long stand-ing, and that, in his opinion, it would notpay to prosecute them. He recommendedthat they be dropped, and stated that inthe other fifteen cases he would com-mence suit. The recommendation wasadopted. Another meeting of the boardWill be held next Monday.

around the rooms.The patients were moved out and the

fumigators set to work for forty minutes.The room was then shut up for a coupleof hours, but still smelled strongly of thegas when the patients were put buck.

WAIT FOR INSTRUCTIONS.

Company F, Thirteenth, Talks Over

a Reorganization.

For the second time during the pasttwo weeks the members of Company F,Thirteenth Minnesota, have met withoutbein,? able to arrive at any decision asto whether or not they shall reorganizeunder the proposed First regiment. Themeeting last night was well attended,some of the old members of the companywhile it was a part of the original Firstbeing present, as well as those whoserved in the Thirteenth.

Nothing definite was done at the meet-ing owing to the fact that the officialorder for the reorganization has not asyet been received from the adjutant gen-eral. Capt. Carlton said In regard to thematter: "Not having received instruc-tions from Adjt. Gen. Lambert as to howto proceed in reorganizing, nothing defi-nite could be done. "We did not knowalong which lines to proceed. All of theofficers of the company who served inthe Thirteenth have proffered their res-ignations, so that in case the reorgani-gatton is effected the customary electionscan take place as in a newly organizedcompany."
