dip it into q tub filed with highly-per-

Ta;k~About Tayisr.
st. Paul Globe: Treasurer:Tayfor' OF
South Dakota WAS q true.blue republi-
can, but he found q whole lot OF misery
ia money.
Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: Til
wound which Mr.. Taylor has gwen
South Dakota finances is not % deep az
a well, or as wide as a church door, but
it will serve.
Brooklyn Citizen: There is some
thing grotesque In the methods of .
state which put it n the power of q
treasurer to walk Off with the cash box
In that fashion.
Detroit Journal: With an empty
treasury and the people unable to pay
their taxes, the South Dakota legisla-
ture brayely voted to pay $4,000 for
the arrest OF Taylor, the d%efaultlng
state treasurer. Taylor is one OF those
things that come high, but the Dako-
tans are bound to have them.
Minneapolis Tribune: The reports
indicate that there is something very
rotten in the Taylor defalcatlon IN
South Dakota. 1t is to be hoped that
our neighboring commonwealth will be
more fortunate in catching the default
ing treasurer than Minneapolis has
been in catching Menage.
Houston Post: The press sketch of
Colonel Taylor, the defaulting treasurer
OF South Dakota, informs us that from
early youth he had manifested a wond-
erful grasp OF the intricacies OF a large
business. Banking and finance seem
to furnish now tine most fruitful field
FOR the splendid realization OF these
early promises Of youth.
Davenport Democrat: w. w. TAYLOR,
the treasurer OF South Dakota, las
stolen 1888, 600. A queer thing about
this ease is that the governor OF South
Dakota had his name on the treasurer's
bond. The govesnor is an honest man
80 far as known. But the improperly
81 Que state official becoming bondsman
for another is too manifest for COM
lnent.
Fremont Tribune: 1t was ever thus.
The bondsmen OF the defaulting treas
urer OF South Dakota knew, as might
have been expected, OF his prospective
flight and his defalcation, and they
have begun to protect themselves
against any loss by reason OF his dis
honesty. They are getting their prop
orty out OF their names as fast as pos
sible and the state will probably never
realize a cent on the bond they signed.
