Burrows, w. A. Skalfe and r. F. Skaife,
three travelling statesmen who We're
selling goods to the farmers by sample
for Chicago firm, We're arrested at
Centerville on the charge of being than
sient merchants, traders and dealers,
under the peddler and hawker law of
South Dakota.
The defendants We're all residents of
Ponca, Neb, and did business in about
the following manner: They would take
their samples TO farmer and show
them what the house that they repre-
sented had for sale and would take an
order from the farmer for what he
might wish to buy, and would leave
copy OF the order with the farmer, tell
ing him that in about ten days he would
receive notice that the goods We're in
Centerville, and that he was to come
into Centervile and get the goods.
The farmers We're all notified when
the goods arrived at the depot in Cen
therville, and they came in and got the
goods that they ordered and paid the
amount chat they had agreed to pay to
the agq Mt of the Chicago house who de-
iivere.. he goods to them, the consign-
ment of the goods having been made
to the Chicago firm at Centerville, with
! /. s. actions to the eepct agent 10 turn

For this the defendants We're arrested
and tried before Daniel Dwyer, city
justice of the peace. The defendants
were represented by their attorneys.

defended on the grounds that no Of
fense was stated under the law of the
state, and that the defendants were en-
gagged in Interstate commerce and that
the statute of South Dakota could not

The justice discharged the defend
ants, holding that no offense had been
committed, for the reason that the de-
PENDANTS were engaged in interstate

Dakota could not apply to their case.

HEAVY IMMIGRATION.

Pukwana, S. D.. May 2.-There has
not been in twenty years such west
ern immigration as this spring has
shown There are on an average OF
ten outfits day pulling through this
place and they are all headed for
Lyman county. 1t seems peculiar that
Lyman county should lie idle and sub
Jec. to homestead for so many years
and all at once when things are OPEN
ing up in Rosebud and northern Min
nesota, that the public should become
aware of the advantages of Lyman
county One thing that has retarded
settlement is the strenuous opposition
offered by the COW men," OF course
set; emenr means loss of free range
and the abandonment OF the cattle
business. One o. the ranchers in talk
ing 20 your correspondent. admitted
freeiy that they had plrposely sent out
exaggerated and Misleading stories
concerning the lack of water and un-
fertile soil, etc. A colony of Russians
have lived for years about forty miles
west of Chamberlain and all have good
farms and they raise as good crops
as anyone in any part of the state.
A special train bearing officials of the
Milwaukee road passed through here
yesterday morning from an inspection
of the river at Chamberlain looking to
the building of bridge at that point.
1t is pretty we'll understood that the
Milwaukee is seriously considering the
advisability of bridging the Missouri,
either at this point or at Brule City for
the extension to the Hills.

Owner of Old Timepece.
Alexandria. S. D.. May Al. B. Bert

ably the oldest clock in the northwest.
The clock is one of the conventional old
style hall clocks. stands 61a feet high, has
Arabic figures upon a plain brass dial.
across which Is inscribed in large letters
the name of the maker Andres. Acadie. +"
The works are entirely of wood and are
in as good condition today as they were
100 years ago The case is perfectly plain
and is typical of the period.
1t was made in 1855 in Acadia, the land
of Evangeline, by Andres the clockmaker
for General Antoine Poland, who came
from France with Lafayette to help the
Americans, and was placed by the gen.
eral in his mansion at Champaign, N. Y.
1t remained there until short time ago.
when it was removed TO Alexandria by
the present owner, who is a great great
grandson of General Poland. During the
more than leo years that it stood in the
old homestead at Champlain it has kept
good time and is still in perfect condition.
