The people Of South Dakota have in
augurated new and we believe an eff
fective campaign against the trusts.
They are organizing branches OF the
American League, the aim and object
of which is to accomplish the absolute
destruction and annihilation OF trusts,
combines and monopolies of all kinds.
The plan is for the people to organize
and marshal themselves against the
trusts and fight them in every conceiv-
able way-in the courts, in the Legis-
lures. and to keep up the fight unit
the country Is entirely rid OF them.
This is the only effective way Of fight
ing them. Some good has been accom-
plished through the Legislatures and
the courts along this line, 1t is true,
but the fight must be made by the peo-
ple-the whole people-if It is ever
carried to a successful finish. When
the people become thoroughly aroused
and begin q war of annihilatiou we may
confidently look for loose ming of th ;
greedy clutches of the money devil.

Whole families have been wiped out
of existence and of several large
families only one or two children
are left. MANY patients now in a
critical condition are without medi-
cal attention and dying at the rate
Of three 10 five per day. The death
rate exceeds rs per cent, and the

session carte blanche was given to
the physicians to purchase supplies
aud medicines, A bill for forty

There is great interest manifested
in this city in the recent arrest of
Julius Moyse, the impostor{ who
represented himself to be Captain
Clarke, of the battIeship Texas, in
New Orleans recently, and for
which act be now occupies a cell in
The city jail of the Crescent City.

highly respected and wealthy fam.
lily, and has figured as thess tar per.

of business.
A special correspondent from

Seimitar gives one account of
Moyse's dirty work. It reads as
follows:
t was in 1898; when the state
Of Mississippi, in response to the
call of the President. was raising
her quota of men for the Spanish.

made his appearance ia Jackson as
private in tie GreenvIlIe company,
Second Mississippi Regiment. He
was young man OF good address,
played craps successfully, spent his
money freely, was an agreeable
companion, and well liked by his
associates, Sometime before the
regiment was completed the police,
OF Jackson received a telegram from
St. Louis asking them to look out
for young lady named Eta Sands,
and to prevent Der marriage to
Lieutenant Moyse until her broth .r
could get lere There Was No such
officer as Lieut.. Moyse, but the 20
lice knew Private Moyse and shad-
owed him. He denied all knowledge
Of Miss Sands, and the police had
not found her when the brother ar
rived from ST. Louis. When he did
arrive, in company with the police
he made a house 10 house search for
his sister and finally located her in
a espectable boarding house.
"She admitted that she had come
to Jackson for the purpose of mar
rying Moyse, who represented
himself to her as a lieutenant, but
on her arrival here she discovered
that be was only private, that he
had deceived her as to his ability to
care for wife, aud she had declined
to become his bride. She fell upon
her brothers. neck and wept, and was

Southern Editorial on Negroes.

Augusta, Ga, Chronicle: The people
of this community are thoroughly
aroused on the question of seperate
accommodations in the street cars for
whites and negroes. In many instances
where no lawlessness results there are
collisions and incidents of an unpleas-
ant nature that would be avoided by
the observance of the rule requiring
white passengers to be seated on the
front seats and negro passengers on
the back seats and as the number in
creases for the intervening seats to be
filled until there is no more room for
passengers of either race without en-
croaching upon the seats occupied by
the other. When this occurs. the con-
ductor and motorman are prohibited
from taking on any other passengers.

JEWISH DIVORCE
orsased According to the nabbinioal
Law of tho Talmud.

oreASed According to the nabbinical
Law of tho Talmud.
A scene in real life recalling In some
respects the famous enforcement de-
picted by Israel Zangwill in his Chill
dren of the Ghetto" was enacted in
Baltimore when Mrs. Lena G. Wolf
was granted a divorce according to
rabbinical law from her husband
Maurice Wolf. says the Baltimore
Sun.
The trial took place at 653 West
Lombard street. the residence of Rev.
DR.. 8. Shafeer, rabbi of the Green street
synagogue. A suit for divorce between
the couple is now pending in the civil
courts of that city. The old Talmudic
law, however requires those persona
who have been married according to
the orthodox Hebrew ritual to be di-
vorced also by the religious law. Fo.
this reason Mrs. Wolf insisted on Sc.
curing the religious divorce.
Had Mrs. Wolf neglected to get the
religious divorce she could not be re-
married by an orthodox rabbi, even il
the divorce had been granted in the
civil courts. The judges were assured
that the action in the civil courts
would result in Mrs. Wolf being
granted a divorce. Mr.. Wolf was much
affected by the proceedings, and, be-
fore the trial was concluded, was 30
overcome that he tainted.
Ten persons are required to be pres
ent at the trial for a religious divorce.
Three of them serve as judges. The
judges at the trial were Rev. DR.. Shat
fer, Rabbi H. Bearman and Mr.. l..
Strauss. The law requires also that
the writing of the enforcement be in
ancient Hebraic characters AS Mr.
Wolf was unable to perform the task
a skilled Hebrew writer, Mr.. Isaac
Cohn, wrote the decree. One of the
remaining persons served as a substi-
tute for the husband in delivering the
writing of enforcement from him to
his wife.
Two of the witnesses were required
to sign the decree, and the three re-
naming persons served as witnesses
The judges did not hear the evidence
in the case in detail. but confined
themselves to accepting the general
statement made by the wife. who said
she had found it impossible to live
with her husband. The husband as
sented to the granting of the decree
After considering the case the Judges
decided to grant the divorce. II civil
decree is also granted both will be per-
mitted to marry again. The trial
lasted about two hours
