Attorney Woodworth says that there
is no penalty prescribed IN the statute,
the misdemeanOr known AZ crimina,
libel, and that it is not punishable by i'm
prisonment; consequently the article
above regarding the ease was written
under misapprehcnsion resulting from
erroneous information. The News was
preparing to sue Kelley for calling its
editor II "recalcitrant ignoTamus" but it
is now doubtful whether it would pay. 1t
seemed incredible that the offence should
be punishable with Imprisonment. vet
several individuals who had been present
at the trial declared that there was no

OF criminal libel in their attack on Sheriff

The penalty for criminal libel is one year

The News hopes that the next trial may
result in acquittal or at least in doing
away with any charge of criminality II
men can be- imprisoned for such caues,

PubllcsSentiment at Webster Much
Wrought up over the. Conviction
of Editors Harris and Adams.
The most important case tried at the
present term OF circuit court for Day
county at Webster, was the case OF Grim
inal libel brought by Sheriff Serenson
against Editors Harris and Adams, OF
the RE oRTER AND FARMER. The case
grew out OF a Number Of scathins articles
in the REpoRTER AND FARMER, in
which the official conduct Of the sheriff
was held up to public gaze in a manner
not at all complimentary to the officer.
The last OF these articles to appear in
print was a "~scoreher," so to speak, and
boldly charged the sheriff with being u
boodler, etc, etc. Serenson at once
brought suit for $4,000 damages, and
when the grand jury met had the editors
indicted for criminal libel.
The case was tried the first of the week
occupying two days, and the verdict O
the jury was guilty, as cparged in the
indictment" 1t is said that when the
citizens. OF Webster heard the verdict the
ar was fairly blue with curses, so indig-
nant were they. Reports from Webster
are to the effect that the evidence in the
case will not warrant a verdict of guilty.
An arrest OF Judgment peading a motion
for a new trial, was at onee granted by
Judge Campbell.-Aberdeen News.

Company "K," of Webster, does not
intend to be behind other companies in
drill, even ii they have been dead "a long
lime. They have one of the best instruc-
tors in the state in the the person OF Rev
j. &. Morrison. He is well informed on
the new drill regulations and has brought
the company OF raw recruits to IA point
OF perfection that Webster can be proud
OF. de also instructs a class of the COM
pany officer. in the school OF the COM
pany, and they are progressing finely.
The citizens OF Hot Springs are agita-
ting the subject of the organization OF a
company OF the National Guard. The
activity displayed by the several com
panies during the rifle practice season
Tstclosed, and the presentation OF prizes
won by individuals, with the social feat
ures accompanying, have helped to make
the organization OF the states defenders
! quite popular, and the young men OF the
state are beginning to see that it is just
the proper thing to be ideItified with
the South Dakota National Guard.
The new infantry rifle adopted by tn,
War Department, ought to be the best
gun the world has ever produced, as il
was selected by a Board OF L. s. A. Of
~tcers, ont OF 53 rifles presented for their
inspection. The Board was convened
De. 18th, 1890, and remained in session
untit their IabOrs were completed, Sept,
18th, 1892 The arms We're subjected tC
the most rigid tests thatCOuld be thought
OF. The arm finally selected is known as
the "Krag-Jorgenson rife, No. B." The
calibre is 30 and it is a magazine arm
b 1t can be used as a single loader. The
magazine a be turned on and emptied
or partly emptied, closed and again used
as IA single loader. The magazine holds
five cartridges and the rifle weighs with
the magazine full, nine pounds. The bul
let weighs $50 grains: powder, 1870 gr:
cartridge complete, 40 gr. The sights
attached to the rifle as presented to the
board, are graduated up to 1000 yards
but it is probable that the War Depart,
mrnt will change this as it is not so ef
fl lent as the one we are now using. The
old form OF triangular bayOnet with
socket clasping the barrel, has been
unanimously replaced by a knife bayo
net on all foreign arms presented for ex.
animation. The bryOnet attached tC
the "Krag-Jorgenson" rifle is knit,
shaped, has but one edge and u strong
back, is but nine inches long and is very
easily attached to the barrel of the rifle
The scdbbard is Of leather and tipped
with metal, the weight of bayonet anC
scabbard being II ounces. 1t is the in
t%ention to supply the army with the new
guns as soon as they can be man ufac
tured and rs sOOn AS the army is sup,
piled the National Guard will be furnished
