G. "A. Jewett, Who Contributed to
Fund for Mastering In Troops.
G. A. Jewett of Sioux Falls will secure
several hundred dollars which have been
waiting his order for nearly q year, by EN-
ploying an attorney to sign his name for
him. Jewett Bros. Il Jewett of Sioux
Falls advanced $500 to assist in mastering
in state troops, but as G. A. Jewctt is man
ager of the firm, the legislature, in passing
the appropriation to reimburse the money,
made it payable to c. A. Jewett. A
voucher was sent to him, but he re-
turned it with a refusal to sign it,
and demanding that it be made out
10 the firm. AS the appropriation did not
run to the firm, this was refused. Then
he invoked the aid of the governor, who
rushed in upon Il clerk in the office and
wanted to know why the Jcwett appropri-
alton was being arbitrarily held up when
all the others had been paid. He was in
formed as to the reason, hut was not satis-
fled, but Mr.. Jewett did not get his money.
Now, after nearly u year, he has assigned
his claim to an attorney, and will get his
money by the payment of u fee, when he
could have secured it at any time by tho
signing of his name.
