Pierre, S. D., Feb 2. While the
legislators are portraying the vices
that need prohibition, the beauties
OF the anemone which modestly as
pires to be the state flower, and the
reforms which are trying to break
into the republican corral and
''rope'' the choicest animals for
riding, there is little problem in
mathematics which is claiming the
attention Of those of the tianciers
who are not hnstling for special or
general appropriations. The state
at large will not be lacking in in
terest toward problem which aims
to have one dollar do the work of
Two and have little pin money

The board of regents Of education
has recommended special and gen
eral appropriations amounting to
$723, 900.
The board OF charities and cor
rections has recommended special
and general appropriations amount

Where is Drew Bowers9


Mrs. Bowars of Lead City was a
passenger on Saturday evenings
train for points down the
road in search of her son, Drew,
who with John Patterson, another
small boy, left this city Tuesday
evening for a trip on the hummer
as they termed it.
The boys seemingly made poor
marks IN their examinations at
school, which caused them to leave
home. They had but $3.50 when
they left, and walking as far as
Whitewood, they paid their fare to
Rapid City and were out of money.
They boarded the evening train,
however, which carried them to
Brennan, where they we're put off,
and the next day they started for
home. Little Johnnie Peterson was
so small that he hid under the seat
and was not detected, but his friend
was put off, and that was the last
heard Of him.
His motheris greatly worried and
she intended, when leaving, to re
main in search of her son until she
found him. -Deadwood Independent

NOT the CUSTER COUNTY BANK.
That Institution Had No Connec-
ton With the Famous
Calkins Case,

In it's issue OF last week The
UNION published the following news
item from the Omaha World-Her-
aid in relation TO the now famous
Calkins horse case:
The case Of Israel Calklns against
the Custer County bank was given
to the jury at HotSprings last Fri
day. After being out the greater
part Of the night they came in with
a verdict for the plaintiff in the sum
of So, ,180. This case has become ia
nous, having been on every court
calendar for the last ten years, and
having been tried four times. The
claim arose over a band of horses
which the plaintiff charges the bank
with securing and having spirited
away through the intervention Of a
fraudulent mortgage, and the
amount in controversy is $4,000.
The bank has given notice of appeal
and the case will probably drag
along for several years more.
In justice to the Custer County
Bank which is associated with the
Penning ton County Bank Of this
city, The UNION desires to say that
the Custer Institution had no con
nection whatever with the Caklns
horse case. Calkins' ENHANCEMENT
was with the First National Bank
of Custer, and not the Custer Coun-
ty Bank. Whether orsnot the con.
troyersy involved shady mort
gage THE UNION does not presume
to say, butt does know that the
Pennington County Bank Of shis
CITY and the banks at Custer ant
Hill City that are associated with i
do not deal in shady mortgage
& nor are the men behind these insti
tutions built on the Shylock plan
Their patrons are their best adver
tisement, and The UNION makes th
correction most cheerfully.

The estimate OF the state auditor
indicates that On the b.sis Of last
years assessment the revenues Of
the state for the coming year will
amount to ST, 160,00
This leavs deficiency amounting
to $715, 900.
The special appropriations amount
to $515,OOO. Ii every dollar of these
special appropriations be cut out
there still remains a deficiency
amour ting to $2O1, 300 and when it
is considered that this does not in
.clude interest on the public debt and
contingencies which are very likely
to arise, it is a conservative esti-
mate that even with the special ap-
preparations all cut out there will
yet be a deficiency amounting to
fully $4Oo, 900.
But the special appropriations
will not all be put to sleep, and this
legislature is up to the proposition
Of making 81 of every unit of the
estimated revenue do the work OF
at least SLIGO, and that is the prop.
ositioa which will haye to be settled
before this legislature adjourns un-
less the members shirk their duty.
The more thoughtful members are
already beginning TO ask whether
this is to be $4,000, 900 legislature.

Sound Sense.

Two years ago, VIM. Barry MUIR
dered Andrew Mellum. The murder
was one of the most deliberate and
cold blooded in the annals of North
Dakota crime. After committing
the deed, Barry drove to Milton
where he told of his deed and the
motive therefor. He was taken
into custody, tried and convicted,
and the court imposed a life SEN
tence. The case was appealed to
the supreme Court, and because of
some. slight error in the Judges
charge to the jury, the verdict of
guilty was set aside and a new trial
granted the defendant.
That trial has just been finished
and the jury which heard the evil
dence failed to agree. The iden-
teal evidence offered by the. state
in the first trial was presented at
the second hearing, yet it is claimed
that IL jurors stood for conviction.
Already Cavalier county tax payers
have spent $4,000 in an attempt
to bring a self confessed murderer
to Justice, and are again at the
starting point. Is it any wonder
that such a travesty should bring
law in contempt and cause igno-
rant people to cry out against all
organized government.-st. Thomas

AMI Thomas, agent at Fl. Ber-
thold, N. D., has been ordered to
Washington to consult with Indian
Commissioner Jones about grazing
on that reservation. MI Thomas
thinks the permit system better
adapted to the regulation of the
number of cattle to be grazed, but
Secretary Hitchcock is believed to
be in favor of calling for sealed bids
as best for the Indians. The Secre-
tary's experience has been that more
money is secured by sealed bids
than in any other way.
