Sioux Falls Press, 8: The argument

Sioux Falls Press, 8: The argument
pro and con on the motion for a change
of venue OF the big timber case against
the Homestake Mining company from
Sioux Falls to Deadwood, which has
been on before Judge Edeerton of the
United States court in this city since
last week, was completed yesterday, and
the court will not rule in the matter I'M
til about August /. Judge Moody for
the company presented everything in the
case favorable to a transfer to the Black
Hills but Judge Garland demonstrated
quite thoroughly that the change would
not be in the interest Of justice-that the
government might better abandon the
suit than try it out there where every
one conscientiously believes the timber
on government land should be taken for
mining purposes.
The docket of the circuit court con-
tanned eleven cases. One has been con.
t,nued by stipulation, and two dismissed
one of which was the s2,OOO,OOO w. S
Allerton suit against the Homestake
company. Hence court will open with
eight cases on the calendar. The one OF
most local interest is the United States
government against against Asel Reyes
OF Yankton and his bondsmen. This is q
double barreled suit. Action is brought
to recover $4,000 from Mr.. Reyes
bondsmen, and the other against Mr..
Keyes in the sum OF S23,123.lS on c,n-
tract. The points in the case are these:
The defendant undertook to fill a big
forage contract for the government at
Fort Riley, Kan, but that year Kansas
INDUCED in one Of it's semi-occaslonal
crop failures and the hay and oats were
not to be had IN that state. Mr.. Reyes
consequently failed to the extent named
in dollars and cents. Hence the suit.
The H. NJ. Benedict habeas corpus
case will come up before Judg. Edger-
ton today.

TAYLOR GETS FIVE YEARS.

Defaulting State Treasurer Taylor
was arraigned in Judge Gaffy Court
at Pierre Tuesday and plead guilty"
of the charge of enlightenment. He
waived any time the law gave him
and asked for sentence. The time
set was for next morning. Judge
Gaffy refused him bail, and yesterday
sentenced him to five years of hard
labor in the penitentiary at Sioux
Falls. Taylor made no statement,
and takes his sentence like a man
who feels relieved that the stain is
over. To a reporter the only thing
Taylor would say was that he "never
intended to commit robbery"

Harvey not After Cash.


Yankton Press.-A Chicago paper
having asserted that the Horr-Har-
vey debate was gotten up for the Pc
cuniary benefit of the debators, Hen
ry c. Miller, one of the judges in the
contest, published letter written to
him by Mr.. Harvey before the discus
sion began, in which Mr.. Harvey
assigns all his interest in the propos-
ed publication of the debate to two
trustees, the money to be expended
by them in promoting the cause OF
free silver. The profits from all OF
Mr.. Harvey's publications, the Coin
series, go into the same fund. He is
making nothing from the immense
sale of his books. He has means
sufficient to maintain himself and
family respectfully and does not care
to accumulate more than he needs.
His war is against the class that
piles up. immense accumulations, and
he practices what he breaches.

on state officials and the republican
party, purely for partisan effect. But
as time rolls around about all their
statements are disproven in turn.
They said Taylor wasn't wanted back
never would be back, and state would
never get Il dollar. He is back and
has disgorged 800, 900, and a lot
OF property. Then they said there
was "disgraceful compromise" and
Taylor would not be prosecuted un-
der our statute sec 1865, taken from
the Nebraska laws, because the pen
atty was too great! After they have
reyeled in this discovery, to their
hearts content, the Sioux Falls Press
publishes the South Dakota and Ne
braska statutes, showing that our
lawmakers neglected to specify, the
crime, fatal omission made in copy
ing, which as Attorney General Craw-
for said, invalidates our law. When
this affair is finally settled and all

A RICH C-OUNTERFElTER.
DIR. Orlando Il. Bradford Has Property
Valued at 10000

NEW YORK. Nov. 9.-The World to-mor-
row will say: When DIR. Orlando Z. Brad
ford, the counterfeiter and leade of the
old Bill Brockway gang. gets out OF the
Kings County Penitentiary he will be a
comparatively rich man. Before he put on
prison garb yesterday he turned over to
Warden Hayes diamonds, cash and nego-
table securities TO the amount of $4,000
and deeds TO seven pieces of Harlem prop
erty. TO hold until his release. Detectives
employed on the case were puzzled TO
find out where DR.. Bradford's money was
put away. He had no bank account that
they could discover and the amount OF cash
he had in prison did not appear to exceed
500. The mystery was explained when
Bradford was taken to the Kings County
Penitentiary in Brooklyn Friday evening:
He handed the warden a formidable pasted
envelope securely sealed. and asked him TO
take care of il until he was released. Care
fully wrapped in cotton were eleven beauti-
full unset diamonds. In addition there were
title deeds and mortgages on property in
Harlem. There were also smaller jewels and
some cash. Exclusive of the real estate
the property was estimated as worth $4,000
and it was easily negotiable.

A HIT AT ROCKEFELLER.
Mr.. Lloyd Puts n Question tn n Chi
cage University Professor.

CHICAGO. Nov. 9.-The following open
letter to Prof. Laughlin. of the University
OF Chicago. from Henry d. Lloyd, will ap-
pear In to-morrow's papers. and is sent by
request:
You are reported in the press to have
said at a public meeting. Nov. 5, in Kent
Hall. University OF Chicago. TO the stu
dents and others present, that whatever
might be charged against one OF the found
ers Of the oil monopoly, no one could say
that he had accumulated his millions in
any way thai interfered with the accumu-
lations OF others. In 1885, the Supreme
Court OF Ohio found. as reported I'm volume
monopoly had a freight contract with the
a Shore railroad TO keep the price down
for the favored customer and up for all
Others. and the court said the inevitable
tendency and effect of this contract was TO
enable this company TO ruin all other opera
tors and drive them out OF business. and
the court annulled the contract as unlaw-
sul. With the help of such Unlawful con-
tracts the capital OF the oil monopoly has
increased in thirty years from nothing 10
hundreds OF millions Of dollars.
IF this were not a public matter you would
not nave discussed IL at a public meeting.
Allow me-, therefore; to ask a question or
you, as the head OF one of the most inn
portant departments OF political economy
in the Country. If this way or accumulate
ing millions by the help of unlawful con-
tracts TO ruin all other operators Is not
an interference with the accumulation OF
others. what Is the scientific name for IL
and for the kind Of political economy which
commends IL for imitation 10 the young
men and women OF the country?
