YANKToN, April 11-The Grand Jury,

verely censuring Governor Ordway for the
haste in organizing Douglass county.
About year ago, the county officers ap-
pointed through him, issued thousands OF
dollars of fraudulent warrants. The Grand
Jury held that the Governor is censurable,
and cites the fact that in the organization oil
other counties he has waited for months to
know that the officers created were Of the
right sort, whereas, Douglass county was
organized in about week after the ap.
