Anaconda News ANACONDA OFFICE : 104'i COMMER CIAL AVENUE. THE NEW COUNTY Powell Bill Causes a Great Deal ot Discussion. 'Un VOTES CAST LAST ELECTION In the Part That is Proposed to Be Segregated From Deer Lodge --A Table Given. "Powell county" was the all absorbing topic of discussion on the streets of Ana conda yesterday among all classes. It became known that Representative Phil lips would introduce the bill yesterday, . , first county officers. The Inter Mountain ; defining the boundaries and naming the i , . . , , , , , pie of Anaconda do nut favor the meas- ; 1 gave the particulars in the evening, and now the discussion on Powell county is on in full blast. It is needless to say the peo- ure. It is surprising too, to learn, that many men who have stood for Anaconda through thick and thin, do not care whether Powell county is created or not. This class of men argue that Anaconda will be as well off in the end. Segrega tion would not in their estimation, injure the city in any way, and if need be the county and city government could be run with one set of officials the same way as is done at St. Louis, Mo. No effort was made up to last night to fight the passage of the hill, other than the bill by Repre sentative Eggleston, changing the bound aries of Deer Lodge and Lewis and Clarke counties. The proposed change will add to Lewis and Clarke the portions of Deer Lodge lying around Bald Butte. Granite Butte, Lincoln and other districts, whose residents have petitioned the commis- ; sioners of Deer Lodge to be annexed to Lew is- and Clarke, because of their pres ent inaccessibility to Anaconda. If Powell county should be created it would embrace the following precincts which cast the following vote in 1S9S for ! the office of sheriff: Deer Lodge, No. 1....................216 Deer Lodge No. 2 ..................... 123 Pioneer...............................64 Garrison ............................25 Gold Creek .......................... 17 Avon ............................... 71 Blossburg............................ 16 Elliston.............................. 69 Ontario .............................. ig Bald Butte............................ 47 Granite Butte.......................... 16 Blackfoot City......................... 17 16 ■ . j i !

THE COLD WAVE Xxist night was the coldest experienced during the recent storm, when the mer cury went down to 40 degrees below zero. All day yesterday the thermometer never registered above 12 below. At 4 o'clock p. m., it was 18 below. At 6 o'clock 24 below and three hours later 28 below. People who are up and around about 4 o'clock in the morning say that between 4 and 7 o'clock this morning it was as cold es 40 below zero. At 7 o'clock it was 35 at the Petritz block. This is the coldest ever wit nessed since Anaconda was created. With the thermometer 40 below zero, the little instruments go insane, as it were, and are liable to point at, or indicate any kind of weather. Every day makes more work for the plumbers on account of frozen pipes. There is no real case of suffering In the city from the cold, but it is only prevented with care and plenty of good fuel. Stock on the range are having a hard time to live. In Deer Lodge county and the Big Hole county the stockmen have an abundance of hay so that all the stock suffer from is the extreme cold. It is believed today will see the weather | moderate, such a prediction has been ! made by the weather bureau.

These special trains are often run when the regular trains are not over two hours late, and the aeeom mod ation is duly appreciated by a large' number of patrons of the road. Judge Woody of Missoula, who is in the city, says the report of the recent storm in Missoula was greatly exagger ated. He denies that nmy' buildings were unroofed by the storm.

The Great Northern train due at C p. m. was two hours late and the 11:40 p. m. train did not reach here until 5:30 o'clock this morning. The Northern Pacific train from the east clue here at 8 a. in. is three hours late. Each road has a clear track but owing to the intense cold the trains cannot make schedule time over a moun tainous country where time is lost every time a train stops at a station, climbing steep grade and meeting freight trains which are also making trips on slow time owing to the cold.

Woody of Missoula arrived in the city last night and occu pied the bench in the district court this morning in two cases from which Judge Napton was disbarred. One was the di vorce case of Lottie Hull against her husband, Frank Hull. After listening to the proof, Judge Woody ordered a decree entered according to the prayer of the complainant.
