About PartnerShips,

Sioux Falls Press: There has
been going the rounds of the terri
torial press a statement that is like
ly to make the members of business
firms unnecessarily uneasy. The
statement is founded upon section
l,443 of the code of civil procedure
which provides that ''every partner
ship transacting business in the ter
ritory, under a ficticious name of
designation not having the names
Of the persons interested as partners
must file with the clerk of the dis
trict court Of the county or subdi-
vision in which its principal place
of business is situated, a certificate,
stating the names in full Of all the
members of such partnership and
their places of residence, and pub
lish the same once Il week for four
consecutive weeks in a newspaper
published in the county," This has
been constructed by some attorneys
to mean that partnership title
which does not give the full given
names as we'll as the sirnames
of the members Of the firm,
that the notice alluded to shall be
given. The question has just been
passed upon by Judge Palmer, of
this district, who holds that the re-
quirement applies only to partner
ships doing business under some
name or names different from those
of the partners, and that a title con-
tanning the surnames of all the part
ners or of one or more of them. the
balance being represented by the
term ".& Co.." is itself sufficient no.
tification as to who comprises the
firm. The object of the law is to
prevent preparation of fraud on
the part OF any who might seek to
use reputable and trustworthy
names in the title of partnership,
for the purpose of securing business
credit which the use Of their own
hames would not obtain. = This OBJ
ject is secured by the construction
given in Judge Pslmer's decision.
He remarked, also that to hold it
necessary that all firms should be re-
quired to file and publish notice
before they could maintain in the
courts of the territory any. action
upon or on account Of any contracts
made or transactions had In their
partnership would sadly disturb
commercial relations and entail an
aoyances which no possible benefit
to be derived form such requirement
could anywise effect. &.

Thoughtful Notes.

Woman will be pure, if man will
be true.
Fidelity is seven-tenths of busi-
ness success.
Character lives in man, reputa-
tion outside of him.
A mans wisdom is his best friend,
folly shis worst enemy.
Fancy runs most furiously when
a guilty conscience drives it.
One ungrateful man does an
injury to all who stand in need
of aid.
Jealousy is the sentiment of pow
erty, but envy is the instinct to
theft.
1t is not cowardly to yield to ne
cessity, nor courageous to stand out
against it.
The knowledge which We have
acquired ought not to resemble a
great shop with order, and without
an inventory; we ought to know
what we possess, and be able to
make it serve us in need.
James Freeman Clark says: "We
waste our time doing too many
things reading too many. books,
seeing too many people, talking too
much. Therefore we do nothing
Well, read nothing thoroughly. know

worth hearing
If you want to look for heroes in
our day, yon must 60 down to the

1t seems that recently a party Of
Indians passed east on the N. p.
bound for the states on exhibition
purposes, and among them, as a
taking feature, is a white man
named johnson, called "Liver Eat
ing Johnson" name given him
subsequent to a. fight he once had
with number. of red skins, and
closed the engagement by cutting
out the liver of one of the dead In
dians, and ate it. Another party
known as Curley of Custer massacre
fame is among the party; Old Crow,
a noted chief and two"ropers," fam.
GUS riders are among the party.
The proprietor of the enterprise has
a standing offer of 5000 for a steer,
bull, mule or horse that they cannot
ride or catch with a lasso.

Together with the Marine bank
in New York, the Grant family be-.
came bankrupt, last t.week. Through
the generals "presents" while presi-
dent, and benefit funds subsequent
to his being thrown out of that
high position, he managed TO lay-by
in his wife's name, a moderate for
tune. But his family had
a bad run Of the "big head'' and

firm Of Grant & Ward including
the general and two or three Of his
sons have been driven to the wall
financially: except that property
which may be in the old lady's
name, and it is said that she must
come down with, $4,000 to Van
derbilt. The liabilities, at a low
estimate are placed at 10000 ,000,
and will fall principally on indi-
viduals who have been foolish
enough to risk their money with
the firm. It seems that Ward was
the principal Of the institution, and
that the Grants are thus throwing
much Of the responsibility on to
him. The bankers claim that he is
