Considerable speculation is in
dulged in ut Pierre over the question
whether or not a gang of counterfeiters
has been unearthed in that city. Last
week Tom White, saloonst, J. B.
Smith, Geo. Glover, Walter Owens and
one or two others were arrested upon
a charge of this kind. Sidney Garrett,
said to be one of the gang, is a skilled
gold platter, and has fixed up"
number of nickles to resemble five dol |
lar gold pieces, and silver dollars which
resemble a $40 gold piece. The de-
Tense is that they were only fixed up
for pockct-pieces and to create an inn
preston of wealth in the possessor
but Smith, a bartender passed a $40 |
and received good money in change.
This it is claimed was done as a Joke. |
When such things come before a Uni |
ted States court it does not often prove |
a very funny matter, though there
seems to be serious doubt about this |
being genuine band of counterfeiters
DIR. N. Wiggins, of township ll3, |
range IS, Sully county, has a contract
with one of the largest and most prom
inent seed houses in the East, to furnish
them with all the garden seed he can
grow this year. The doctor is a con
tirmed invalid and all the care of this
industry falls upon Mrs Virgins, who
is an accomplished and spirited lady,
and goes to show the determination of
Dakota ladies to succeed This speaks
well for Dakota, and will probably re-
suit in great good, for when it becomes
thoroughly known in the East that Da-
kota produces the finest vegetables in
the world there will be great demand
for her seeds. This opens up branch
Of business in this Territory which has
become large industry in some of the
Eastern States. 1t is well known here
that this country excels all others in
raising, and it only needs en-
to become large prod uc-
,r of seeds.-Pierre Recorder.
