Hamaker sent the following letter t. the
Commissioner of the general land office:
Are residents of towns within Black Hills
forest reserve entitled annually to 500
worth of green timber free, for erection of
new buildings OH town lots, repairing of
old ones and for fire wood?" The Com
missioner replied: You are advised that
the provisions of the law relative to the
free use of timber and paragraph 81, as
amended on page II of the rules and reg
ulations governing forest reserves, con-
templates the needs of only those persons
within or near the boundaries of Il reserva-
ton whose lands or claims are in isolated
localities, inaccessible TO sawmills or lum-
Der or wood markets. Unless there are no
accessible wooded lands or private owner-
ship or other legitimate sources from which
the residents of towns and villages can
lawfully procure fuel, they are not allowed
to obtain it from the forest reserves under
the provision for free use of timber. No
one is entitled annually to the amount Of
free timber stated in the rule cited"

held the opposition closely down to BUSH

defeating them when they showed signs of
weakness and sought a sine die adjourn

to drop the hindmost mar on each ballot
after the twenty-hfth, and came out of
the final trial Of strength shortly after
10 o'clock Tuesday night with colors

WITHOUT A LIQUOR LAW
South Dakota Judges Decision n
Status of the Statutes.


Judge Joseph b. Moore of Sturgis noti-
fled counsel for the saloon men under in
dlctment for violating the liquor law, that
he had sustained the demurrer to the in
dictments interposed by him in their be-
half. BY this opinion Judge Moore holds
that the dispensary amendment to the con-
stitution adopted last fall was sci. execute
ing, and thereby repealed the liquor law
then in force, and the failure of the Legis-
lature to provide suitable legislation in
conformity With the amendment leaves the
State without any law regulating the sale
of liquors, except as the amendment pro-
vides for its sale under the exclusive con-
troll of the State and handled by its agents.
This ruling will very materially affect the
revenues, and the saloon men declare that
they will no longer pay county or State
licenses.

A portion of Yankton County. north and
northeast of Yankton, was swept by a de-
vastating storm on the evening of June 25,
as a result of which many farmers lost
their entire crops. Heavy wind, hail and
rain caused immense damage, the north
east districts suffering most from the storm
in a strip twenty-eight miles long and
three wide, some farmers losing as high as
400 acres of growing crops. North of the

miles wide the storm did much damage.

farmers losing heavily.
