Canton News: Last Monday rounded
out thirty years that Hon. George ID.
Perkins has been connected with that
staunch friend of South Dakota, the
Sioux City Journal. Some OF the sinker
papers in this state have attributed the
interests manifested by that journal in
welfare OF our state 10 mercenary
motives. but when you stop to think how
many Ut the prominent men in our state
who have at one time or another been
connected with the Sioux City journal.
it is little wonder thai Mr.. Perkins
paper should manifest the interest it has
q right to feel in the growth OF our state.

ploye OF the Journal, was twice elected

they have cast their lot. Sioux City was
long the chef gateway to South Dakota
and it is very natural that Mr.. Perkins
who for 60 many years witnessed the
growth OF our state, should have a
friendly interest in Its development, for
in a business way, the interests of our

still are mutual.

To cover his shortage he left q schedule

$4,000, and which he wished turned over
to the School Board or the surety COM
pany which was on his bond. With the
schedule was a confession of his guilt.
The last trace of Graham was his APP
pearance in New Orleans less than a
week ago, accompanied BY his wife and
three children. This was the initial step
in his flight. the family having hurried to
the Southern city while Graham's friends
thought he was touring westward in
search of rest and quiet. It was his in
tention to keep his family together. but
the illness Of Mrs. Graham aud her baby
rrecluded this and the family returned to
hicago after Graham had written a
complete confession, turning e all his
property for the benefit of the school fund
that had suffered from his POPULATION and
had wOrded n faltering declaration that
he hoped Il live to undo the wrong he had
accomplished. This done, the defnulter
departed. Where he went OF what his
Intentions for the future are no one
knows, but the surety companies that are
