] an Vests New Paper

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: The
initial number Of the Wakonda Mail
has made its appearance under the
direction of ID. 6. West, an old time
resident of the place, who promptly
disclaims any knowledge of the way
q newspaper is made. At first
glance it appeared to be a public adj
vertlsing scheme for the WakonGa
Monitor, as it contained no less than
thirteen distinct mentions Of the
Mail or its editor, but the editor Of
the new paper in~ferentially denies
any purpose to BIZ benevolent towards
its contemporary. SO that ever the
number Of references as aforesaid is
significant only because of the
superstition surrounding it. The
new paper will be issued once in two
weeks or Whereabouts, but promises to
be warm enough to make up for the
long time between publications.

Judge Chas. A. Pollock, who is to
appear at the opera house in, Mitch
ell, Wednesday evening, April Is, is
in some respects the foremost citizen
Of his state, and is looked upon as
one of the strong men of America.
His address will deal with problems
of vital interest to the citizens Of
Mitchell, and will doubtless reveal in
some degree. the astonishing profits
realized by Fargo from the expulsion
Of the saloon.
The judge is always interesting.
luminous, fair and courteous in what
he says. No wise voter will will
ingly miss hearing him.
1t is hoped that before the depar-
ture of the judge some arrangement
may be made by which he can adj
dress the children of the city, but as
the address Of Wednesday evening
will be primarily intended for voters,
it is requested that the children re-
main a. home, and the ladies who

Hunters Should Remember OF the
Changes Made by the Legis-
lature Last Winter,

The last session Of the legislature
took up the matter OF protection of
game and fish and started with a
house bill for the protection of buffa-
10. elk, deer or mountain sheep ex-
cept between the 18th OF November
and the 18th OF December of each
year, amending the old law which
allows hunting Of such game any time
in the months Of November and De-
cember of each year.
Another bill amends the revised
code to limit the number OF game
birds which may be shot by one hum
ter in one day to fifteen. The
number under the old law was twen-
ty-tive. 1t also adds a penalty Of
imprisonment in the county jail OF
not less than five or more than
thirty days for violation of the laws,
with both fine and imprisonment at
the discretion Of the court.
Still another bill follows with pro-
visions to prevent the shipment or
suutS u1tOS. IL plOliiulGS %utlE SBIp-
ment of more than fifteen game
birds by any person firm or corpora
tion, and increases the fine for hav-
ing such birds in possession to not
less than $40 nor more than 500.
This act also makes it unlawful for
any railway company, express COM
pany or common carrier to ship or
carry more than fifteen of the
game birds mentioned with a like
penalty for shipping.
The fish laws were changed by pro-
hibiting fishing In September, which
added to the old provisions Of the
Jaw, and the length Of fish which
may be legally caught has been
increased from six to eight inches.
The code applies the penalties Of un-
lawful taking or transportation Of
fish to companies or corporations
or theiI agents as we'll as to indi-
viduals.

but the B. & O. was in no hurry to
furnish him a car. His cattle suf-
fesed in consequence Gump brought
suit and was given damages by the
lower court. The railroad company
has appealed the'case.
This section has a right to feel
good over the prospects OF more
railroads. We are certain to get
some of the many paper railroads now
in course of construction if not all
of them. Any more trackage will
help matters some and the more we
get the better off we shall be.
In the Fairmont district the B.

by the courts as it should be inves-
tigated.

the obsolete Springfields in use in
most of the states. The new Dick

be about right and proper.
