Counsel was suspended from office shortly
afterward for a time. Justice Smith decided
that they had committed an act of war.
and therefore could not be extradited, and
again they were discharged. They were ar
rested a third time, accused of breach of
the neutrality laws and were taken to To-
ronto. where all except Young were dis
charged for lack of evidence. Young was
admitted TO ball. but his trial seems never
to have been moved. The Canadian authori-
ties refunded some $4,000 which may have
been all that the thirteen prisoners, out of
the twentyodd raiders. had when arrested.
Kindly give me some information about
the two great fires of New York. that of
1885 and tnat of 1915. What was the day of
the month of each? How many houses and
lives were destroyed by each fire? What
was the state of the weather? Where did
each fire begin? What was the estimated
the losses paid in full by the insurance
companies ?-Salome j. Bergman
The great fire of 1885 occurred on Dec. 16;
it began about p. m. The night was in
tensely cold, with little wind; the mercury
was degrees below zero. The fire destroyed
693 houses and ragged for three days; it COW
cred thirteen acres and destroyed SIS, 600 900
of property. The fire began in Pearl street,
at about No. IS. Almost every insurance
company in the city failed because of its
losses. The great fire of 1S45 began about
dawn of calm midsummer morning." July
19, 1916. 1t began in an oil shop in New
street, in the rear of Sc Broad street. A
quantity of saltpeter in the building ex-
ploded killing four firemen and wounding
many others. The fire, which had been I'M
der control before the explosion, spread
over much of the area burned in 1896 and
g
about $10,0O0O 900. Many insurance companies
were ruined.

The st. Adams raid was the attack
made in 1864 on St. Adams. Vt, by a num-
her of Confederates For about week the
rebels, some of whom were soldiers. all of
whom were well drilled and well armed,
had been assembling in the Canadian VIII
lagos along the border. On Oct 10, about
twenty in number. they crossed the border
under command of Lieutenant 3. II. Young.
c. S. A., and about $3.50 p m. entered ST.
Adams. 1t was the day after the weekly
market day, and the town was practically
deserted. They robbed the three banks 0he
st. Adams. the Franklin County and the
First NationaD of $211 $50; then they seized
all the horses in the town, fired upon a
number of persons in the streets, killing
one and wounding several, tried TO set fire
to some of the houses and then rode back
10 Canada. The raid lasted about thirty
minutes. Thirteen of the raiders were ar
rested at St. Johns. a few miles from Mon
treal within day. MIR. Coursel police
justice, discharged the raiders on a techni-
cality, and directed that the money found
on them be returned TO them; but they
were rearrested the same day. Dec. IA. Mr..

The Sioux Falls Press--in double

the Legislature for the purpose OF
patching up the railroad law passed
at the last session. We were told
dur ing the campaign last fall that If
a populist Legislature was elected
GRE at reforms would be inaugurated
an d n Of the principal accomplish
ments would be the passage of an
act that would, iguratively speak
ing, knock the eye out of the rail-

the Press wants the state to spend
another 100000 to give the same
body another chance to do something
that it could have done at its regu-
lar session if there was any occasion
for it to be done. This has turned
out like all their pledges. The fact
is that the law, even if in shape tC
be executed, will be of no materia
benefit to the people of the state

The endeavor of the Sioux Falls

Cannot Believe IT.
Public Opinion.

But what of Public Examiner
Taylor's report !? This says that ex-
Auditor Nipple is owing the state
twenty-five hundred dollars, and
that Auditor Mayhem is owing the
state one hundred seveniy-eight
dollars, these sums representing fees
which were received from the insur-
ance companies for the state, and
which belong to the state under the
provisions of law, and which were
not paid into the state treasury. We
repeat that we do not believe the
report is based upon fact. We re-
peat that we do not believe that
either the ex-auditor or the present
auditor collected fees belonging to
the state and failed to turn them
over to the state.
This may appear to be a bold
statement-a bold challenge of the
accuracy of a public document, a
document issued by a public official;
if so, all right We shall freely and
frankly acknowledge our error when
we see the figures and the provisions
of law sustaining the public exam
iner's contention. We assuredlv
shall make no effort to shield a pub
lie official, be he republican or
democrat or popocrat, who is guilty
of defrauding the state. We shall
denounce him as vigorously as any
popocrat would denounce him.

A Source of Injury.
Henry independent,

One of the most deplorable results
of the political tactics of the populist
press of this state is the belief of the
people in the east that the citizen
ship of the state is made up of
robbers, thieves and embezzelers.
Their peculiar habits of making
charges against anyone and every
body who happens to hold office
by the grace of republican votes is
bearing its Legitimate fruit in the
public mind of the east. In the east
where populism has never taken any
particular root, and where the pub
lie press is conduoted along the lines
of Legitimate newspaper work, the
average reader is not educated up
to the standard of populist journal
ism in South Dakota, and the state
suffers accordingly. 1t does not cut
much ice in this state, so far as the
the public mind is concerned, fol-
people are accustomed to it and
know hat it is done for the purpose
of iniaming the public mind with
prejudice for partisan advantage.
but it is a source of almost incalcu.
able injury to the interests of the
state outside.

1t begins to look very much, says
the Minneapolis Tribune, as if Pub
lie Examiner Taylor of South Da-
kota, in his attempt to.make himself
solid with the radical branch Of the
populist party, had gone too far in
his aspersions upon the characters of
republican officials. 1t develops
under the examination Of Attorney
General Grigsby, also a pop, that
Taylor's recent report on the audi
tors office was carelessly made and
put before the public without any
pretense of verifying it. Indeed,
most Of the work upon it was done
at a distance from the state capital
where it was impossible to compare
figures or rectify errors that are
evident to the most casual reader of
the document. The attempts of the
present administration to retain pub
lie confidence by making political
capital instead of establishing a rec.
ord for good government have so far
been failures.

queathed to James, and the remainder
of the estate was bequea thed by the
