morning from the world d fair convention,
held at Yankton last week. The plan
adopted to raise funds, briefly stated,
was: the governor should convene the
Legislature. If il could be done without
expense to the state, ask that an approp-
ration OF $50, 900 be made; and q COM
mission composed OF two representatives
from each judicial district and two at
large eighteen in allwas chosen,

Sheriff Beaver has another boarder at
the county bastile. It is Elmer Oliphant,

was chasing cattle belonging to the
former. 1t is believed that the wounded

late grand jury on the charge OF burg
larry, but no bill was found against him.
