AN AUTOMOBILE LINE.

A dispatch fhom Sioux Falls says
The present indications are that:
Sioux Falls, in the absence of an
electric street railway systems will
have one of the most unique rapid
transit systems in the country.
Some time ago there was talk of
placing a line of automobiles on
the streets of Sioux . Falls and
persons who were interested even
went east to investigate the ma
chimes. But at that time this char
acter of machines for heavy travel
were not a success, and the pr eject
was abandoned.
Now Clark G. Coats local capital
list, has revived the scheme. He
will depart for the east in a few days
for the purpose of inspecting the
modern machines intended for heavy
travel, and if they are the success
reported he will purchase several
which he will place on the streets
and utilized for carrying passengers.

THE OTHER SIDE.

Wednesday W. H. Blume was in
town and the Advance obtained his
report of the discharging of fire
arms Tuesday morning.
Mr.. Blume, says, myself and son
Willie, on request of my son J. H.
went to measure a cornfeld on Jacks
farm, that we might know the size
of the field and be able to give it
correct as evidence in a case that is
about to be tried in court. We had
measured up the side of the field,
farthest from the house, returned
to about the center and crossed over
to the other side. This point was
twenty four rods from the nearest
point of the fields to the house while
there figuring, Mr.. Piecrce approach
ed Willie, unseen by me, as I was
busy with the figures and did not
notice him. AS I looked up he was
pushing Willie on the shoulder and
told us to get off the place, and kept
pushing Willie. I tt Id him we were
sent there to measure the field and
he had better go about his business.
Pierce then began to take off his
mitten and as he strated to put his
hand in his pocket, I took out my
revolver, which I merely took along
this time to shoot rabbits that are
frequently found in the corn field.
I held the revolver under my arm
as I did not know what he would
do as he had drawn a knife on
me before. We were talking dur
ing the time and as he did not 60
away Ishot twice into the air above
our heads. He then ran and said,
twill get my gun and fix you. HE
went to the house and we started
off separating little ways. In a
short time we heard two shots,
and on looking around I saw Pierce
taking aim across his knee at Willie.
Icalled to Willie that Pierce was
aiming at him and to lie down,
about this time he fired again. We
then left the place.. Mr.. Blume
says, he is very sorry it happened
and measured the side of the field
the farthest from the house that he
might not come in contact with Mr..
Pierce.

L. Y. Eide's mother, an aged LADY
is laid up with rheumatism, and
for sumo weeks has been unable even
to feed herself. Rheumtism ! is'
grievous Fiction, and one which II
is very hard to shake off.
Fred Tolley was round the other
day posting notices of his sale,
which is to be on the 10th. of this
month. Fred tells me that he is
going into Red Lake county, and
expects to leave here about, the
25th. His fatherinlaw has been up
there for about year and likes
the county very we'll; and as Fred
has no place Of his own and land up
in that county can be had as yet, at
a very reasonable fguer, he thinks
it good place to pitch his tent.
The world, like the restless ocean,
is ever on the move. This is as true
of the quiet country districts as it
is of the great centers of population.
In the country, the removals are
mostly about the first Of March or
a little before, in the city, some
later. At present there is a sale in
the surrounding neighborhood every
few days, and all of them people
who are changing residence. How
different in some of the old countries
where, we are told, the same family
will often till the same land for
generations. It will be many long
day before the same can be said of
us. Stagnation is not one Of our
characteristics.
The papers have much to say these
days about the proposed new tax law
and there are wide difference of
opinion with regard to it. Of all
the difficult problems which con-
front our lawmakers that of trad
ition is, perhaps, the most difficult.
1t would seem to be about impossible
to frame a law that wou Id dc equal
and exact justice to every one. In
the assessment and taxation of real
estate the matter is simple but when
it comes to the assessment of person
al property in our great business
centers, the matter is about as COM
p'icated as one can we'll imagine.
We believe our representatives in
the legislature are DESTROYS to do
the right thing in the matter, and
we hope they may be able to frame
a law that will be just and satisfact-
DRY to the public generally.

COURT PROCEEDINGS.

Tuesday evening, VIM. Ryan and.
Geo. Casey were brought in court
to be arraigned under the Indictment
of grand larceny in the first degree,
charged with entering the store of
P. Geyerman, Brewster Dec. 10,
during the mig ht and stealing large
quantity of silks of considerable
value. Ryan said he had no at
torney' but his friend were arrang-
ing for one. Casey said Dan Sui
Ivan of Sioux City was his attorney
but not knowing before that he was
indicted did not send for his at
torney. Judge Brown then gave
them until Wednesday evening to

GIVEN FIVE YEARS.

Minneapolis Journal:
Glendive, Mont. Jerry Mccarthy
the diamond thief, was arraigned
this morning before Judge c. Il.
Loud of the district court and plead
ed guilty to the charge of burglary.
Attorney Hansen Halvorson made a
plea in the prisoners behalf, review
ing the case and pointing out the ex-
tenuating circumstances. After hear
ing the argument the judge sentenc
ed Mccarthy to five years in Deer
Lodge prison at hard labor.
The judge stated that the enorm-
ity of the crime justified the maxi
mum limit of penalty, fifteen years
but inasmuch as the jewels had been
recovered through McCarthy's aid
he would be as lenienu as his duty
would permit. He advised the
prisoner to behave we'll, and as he
was but % now, he would be a
young man when he came out:
Mccarthy expect da shorter TERM
but received his sentence with out a
change of counter ance, and thank
ed the judge. Seen in Jail after his
sentence he said: 1.-THE judge
handed me a pretty good bundle.
If I had known it was going to be so
big I'D have stood pat. I didn't cave
in to be a good fellow, but because
they had a strong case against me.
Five years in Jail is a long time.
A man feels like he'd been in q
dream when he comes out. I've
got a long time to dream, sure
enough. Sheriff Kennedy lisa tough
officer: He. bagged me and got me
to confess. I'd have shown him 3
clean pair Of heels. if he'd let me
get away on the train the night he
arrested me. I~couldn't gain his
confidence, and I'm kind of COW
man."

Re-open Reading Room,

AS walk along the streets and
see mothers from out of town with
their children and young babies sit
ting on dry goods boxes upon the
stairways and in the alleys-attendr
ing to their necessities, l am con-
vinced that it would be a paying
card for merchant to fit up-a rest
and toilet room, for these mothers
and out of town customers. Itwould
be a humane act to say the least.
The time is coming when all cities
will furnish such places and take
care of them. There is room on
the first floor of our new city build
ing for it. Guthrie could be the
fret city in America to introduce
it.-Guthrie Leader.
Guthrie is trifle behind the
times IN regard to the rest and toll
ct room Tor farmers wives and out
of town customers, as Anadarko
supported one all last winter, and it
was one of the best institutions
which could possibly be maintained
at such small cost. The w. G. L.
U. ladies had charge of this room,
and while 1t was discontinued for
awhile, We hope ana believe it will
be thrown open to the public soon,
and would urge the business men of
our city to help sustain it.

Put Down the Sidewalks.

Mrs. Ben Leibenheim Is confined
to her bed, by falling on the side
walk just east of the Gardner brick
on west b street. There is one lot
there that has no side walk, and
any one stepping down two or three
feet unexpectedly, Is liable to be
seriously hurt any night they happen
to go along that way. Mrs; LeibD-
enheim is under the care of DR..
Hume. We have repeatedly
called the attention of our city
Council to this matter, and We
again say there Is no excuse for this
being neglected any longer. Every
lot in this block has side walk
but this one, and the city should
put this one down at once. A
damage suit. against the city will
cost great deal, and this matter
should and must be attended 10. ~

Burns, an Is year old boy of Noun
tain View, last summeT, was tried
in the District Court at Hobart,
and found guilty of murder in
