WILL REACH SUPREME COURT.
Finnal Decision on Dakota Divorces Is
wanted.

Finnal Decision on Dakota Divorces Is
Wanted.
Washington, Feb 5.-The supreme
court OF the United States may be ulti.
mately be called upon to declare con-
cerning the validity of the divorces
that have been ground out by the judi
cial mills in the Dakotas and Oklaho-
ma, and should that august tribunal
decide that the divorces heretofore
issned from the mills in question are
invalid and OF no legal effect, there
will be such an aggregation of domes-
tic shakings-up as probably no country
Women who now regard themselves as
wives will realize that they have been
living for greater or lesser period
under conditions not sanctioned by
law; husbands will find themselves in
the same predicament, while the num-
ber OF children who will thus be brand
ed with the stamp OF illegitimacy can
not be estimated. The decision OF
Justice Russell of the United States
supreme court in the now famous Nc
Gowan. case, and in which he holds
that neither the wife or husband can
acquire temporary residence in a for
eign state for the purpose of securing
Il divorce, has, in the opinion of emf
nent lawyers, laid the groundwork for
the overthrow OF the entire fake di-
vorce system. The case is now pending
in the New York court of appeals. but
whatever may be the decision here, it
has been definitely arranged that the
matter shall be carried up to the
United States supreme court, for
definite and final adjudication of the
questions involved. To this end it is
stated that five husbands who have
been victims of Dakota DEGREES have
subscribed $4,000 each to a fund for
taking the appeal to the supreme court.
OF the combine, two reside in New
York, one in Boston, one in Phiadel-
phia and one In Chicago.

Loucks declares that the farm
ers have been fooled on the rail-
road bill just passed ana that it
will not bring down the freight

roads to increase the rates on
round-trip tickets.

A law enacted by the legisla-
ture for the purpose of preventing
appeal being taken to the supreme
court in cases where less than
SIS is involved, turns out to pre-
vent appeal on any case being
laken to that tribunal. As there
are more than a dozen lawyers in
the senate, some one OF them will
now try to draw up a bill that
will repeal this law.

The editorial 1--WE" has variety Of
applications, says the Printers Auxil-

we expect our wife, we refer to the
editor. When it is we are behind with
our work, it means the whole office
force, even the devil and the town. If
we are having a boom, the town is
meant, We received over 7.00o,-

The bill now before the legis-
lature requiring license fee
from peddlers and parties selling
goods for outside firms is angood
one, and should become law.
The merchant who engages in
business pays taxes and bears his
share Of the burden of supporting
state, county and municipal gov
ernnents, and if he is to have
competitors who pay none of
these expenses in the way of
lakes it is proper that they should
bay license for the privilege of
ping business within the state.

1t has been generally supposed
that in case no senator was elect
ed at Pierre Gov. Lee could fill
the vacancy by appointment. In
"a similar case from Montana sew
years ago, however, the United
States senate decided that no ap-
lpointtnent would hold as the leg
islature had been given an oppor-
tunity to fill the vacancy, and
consequently that state had to
jog along with only one senator.
Worse things than that could
happen to South Dakota.

A Deserved Credit.

the valuable property Of Messrs. Thomas

WITCH KILLED BY BOYS
EICHTY-YEAR-oLD WOMAN LASSoED
AND DRAGGED TO DEATF.
SuperstitiOus Mexican Mother Charged
that the Victim Had BewitcEed
n Young Girl.

LAS VEGAS. N. M, July 11.-According
to a report received from La Cinta, on
the Canadian river fedora Salas eighty
years old, was cruelty murdered by An
tonic Lucero, aged eighteen and Teodoro
LaFoya, aged twenty-five. It seems that
and it was claimed that Teodoro Salas, who
was considered by the ignorant and super
stitutious natives of the neighborhood as a
"bruha," or witch, exercised her wiles over
the young girl.
1t appears that, following the advice of
his mother, young La Foya and his COM
panion, Lucero, followed the old woman to
place about three miles from San Loren
20, where after being frightened she was
prevailed on to go back with them to the
girls house and cure her. They placed her
on the saddle of Lucero's horse, young
Lucero mounting behind
After going a short distance La Foya
pulled his pistol and killed the old woman S
dog, which was following, remarxing that
he had got rid of one ,''bruha" and would
now get rid of the other He thereupon
threw laSso over the old woman and
starting his horse, jerked her from the
other horse. He then instructed Lucero to
attach his lasso to her feet, and the two
starting their horses on the run dragged
the woman to death, not VeStige of cloth
ing being found on the body when recov-
cred. After lingering around the place for a
few days the murderers disappeared The
mother of La Foya was arrested, she hav-
that she had told her son and Lucero to
kill the old woman.
