Argus-Leader, 13: A point has been
raised that e. p. White, who is arying to
Dust G. nj. Highly from the office OF court
reporter, was never formally appointed
and never qualified and that there can
therefore be no foundation for Whites
claims for a continuation in office. The
persons who started the report evidently
did not examine the records in the office
of clerk OF the courts. Mr.. Whites GER
~tificate of appointment val filed March

he qualified before w. ID. Sites, then

East centuries ago-the pictures get

what a great blessing it 10 to live in the
nineteenth century and enjoy the advan-
tages OF it's broad civilization. The first
chapter OF Book OF the Fair (The Ban

Some five or six years ago the Dakota
Farmers alliance was organized to do
business and had headquarters at Aber-
deem. This was a purely business
organization got up for the purpose OF
purchasing binding Irvine and farm ma
chinery in large lots and direct from
the manufacturers with q view to evad
ing the commissions OF middlemen and
reducing to the farmers in the
company the prices on these articles.
For a time it worked we'll and had the
desired effect. 1t did a business running
up into the hundreds of thousands for
several years. To give it credit and a
basis of operation the stockholders put
up notes for their shares the first 10 per
cent being paid in to start the company.
The notes were made payable to the
company in installments or Assessments
Of 10 per cent as ordered by the direct
ors of the company and were not trans
cradle except by order and endorse
mept of the directors. Geo. G. Crosse
was president Of the company during
most of it's existence and J. X. johnson
afterward. No further assessments
were ever made on the notes and when
the business and effects Of the alliance
company were merged into the National
Cordage company two years ago these
notes appear to have gone with the rest
and finally drifted into possession of
Luthy & Co., OF Peoria. ILL.,, who have
now commenced action for the payment
of the balance due on the notes.
Messrs. Crcse and johnson claim that
they know nothing Of any transfer Of
these notes ever having been made and
President Loucks of the National Alh-
ance now advises all signers Of these
notes to refuse payment until Luthy l.
Co. shall furnish evidence Of a legal
transfer having been made. The amount
of these outstanding notes is about
$4,000 and many farmers will be hard
pressed to meet their payments il pay
ment should be enjoined.

Two Convincing Reasons.

Lord r, 'erborough, who lived in the
reign of Queen Anne, was very frolic-
some, and day seeing from his a r
riage a dancing master with pearl COL
ored stockings lightly stepping over the
broad stones and picking his way in ex-
tremely dirty weather he alighted and
ran after him with drawn sword in or
der to drive him into the mud, but into
which he of course followed himself.
This nobleman was onc taken for the
Duke of Marlborough and was mobbed
in consequence, The duke was then in
disgrace with the people. and Lord Pc
terborough was about to be roughly
handled. Turning to them, he said:
Gentlemen, | al convince you by
two reasons that | am not the Duke Of
Marlborough. In the first place, have
only 5 guineas in my pocket, and in thu
second they are heartily at your serv.

4 South Dakota Retail Implement
Dealers association has been formed at
Sioux Falls with the intention of con-
trolling the name in which machinery
and other implements shall be sold to
farmers and others The association
adopted the principal part of the bylaws
OF the Nebraska association. A resolu-
ton was adopted which practically de-
clares a boycott on all manufacturers or
jobbers who will send their goods to ir-
responsible parties to sell on CON-
mission, and who will cut the prices in
order to get the per cent they make. 1t
was also decided to not take old worn
out goods in exchange and a resolution
was passed demanding the railroads to
not allow their agents to use the depot
Office aud warehouses OF the company to
do an implement business in. About
seventy dealers t%hrougout the state have
attached their signatures to the by laws
and 1t is expected the association will
number at least four hundred by next
fall. 4 large number who could not be

Many good things have been said of

paths along which one must walk in or

An interesting tussle is raising be-
tween the city of Sioux Falls and Min
nehaha county. Since county
t%reasurers in 1888 began to COL
lect all delinquent city taxes instea1 OF
the city treasurer, 1t is claimed by the
city that the county treasurer has turned
over to the city only the exact amount
OF the original tax collected, retaining
for the county the delinquent interest
and penalty on these taxes. This now
amounts to nearly s13,500. in the six
years and the city authorities have made
a demand upon the county commission
ers for it. Ii not paid there win, in all
probability, be a nice big law suit. The
law since 1889 has been that the county
shouidreceive one per cent of all moneys
collected for the cities and this would
imply that over and above this, the in
terest and the penalties on city taxes,
should have been turned over with the
delinquent tax 81

A Ruined wedding caae.

An English gentleman residing In
Calcutta brought an action against a
firm of Paris pastry cooks and confec-
TONERS under rather interesting circum-
stances. The plaintiff was about to be
married and ordered what has been call
ed a phenomenal wedding cake from
the defendants. A sum of $3.50 was
paid down for the cake ON delivery.
The colossal and expensive article of
confectionery was packed by the plain
tiff's order, and he took it with him to
Calcutta. On opening the case contain
ing the cake when he arrived in India.
the Englishman found that he had lit
orally nothing but a shapeless mass of
crumbs. The splendid gateau had been
hopelessly bruised and broken during
the voyage.
An action was then brought against
the Paris firm for a sum of $135, which
included, besides the price paid for the
cake, the cost of packing and transport.
The defendants maintained before the
Paris tribunal of that they
had no more responsibility after they
had delivered over the cake to the per-
son who ordered II. Lit was trne that
they recommended n packer. but that
expert acted under the orders of another
individual, who had been selected by the
plaintiff to supeiintend the operation.

Her eyes were much softer and deeper than before the recital. The cheeks were suiiused with a clear, transparent flush, which lit up her pale and sombre face. There was just little quiyer in her voice as she resumed:
 Tell me. Mir. Wilkes, what you think of my course. Have you lived always in these parts? What has oc- cupicd you most in life?" Miss Tenn pleton settled deep in the carriage cushions and studied the young mans face with evident expectancy. Her frank declaration of q moment preyi- ous. had put him at his ease, and he replied with a spirit quite refreshing to his listener:
