When the grand jury adjourned
from lunch United States Attorney
Head said, The grand jury this
Dmorning received evidence from Dris-
coll that kept tfiis office busy for
% week issuing sDhpoenas." 1t was in
timated the subpoenas include some
: very prominent men within the labor
ranks and business circles.
Driscoll's testimony began with his
first connection with labor matters
in 1892, and asserted that probably
SO per cent of the labor leaders of
Chicago received money from him as
an intermediary for the settlement Of
strikers or to ward off impending diff
ficulties. Many OF these leaders, he
claimed received money regularly,
some every week. He denied he ever
paid cent to Anybody to call "a
strike. He recited the history of the
National Biscuit company strike hotel
walters strike, street car, coal team
,sters and office building strikes.
1t is understood that Attorney Cen
,eral Moody agrees with Morrison the
evidence is strong enough to in1ict
1t is expected the federal grand jury

At the meeting of the city council
last night the contract for sprinkling
the streets during the next year was
awarded to Walter Wells, but before
such was done the resignation of that
individual as a member of the coun-
Gil was rendered and accepted
Thus have the repeated protests of
this paper and the people against the
past violations of a city ordinance
been answered. 1t is generally un-
derstood that the above action by
Mr.. Wells was demanded by his for
mer colleagues before they would
give him the contract.
In recommending that the contract
be given to Wells the street commit
tee reported that his bid was the low
est presented, being $104 for a team
and man per month, whereas the
only other bid was by w. M. Coff-
man, who offered to do the same for
$105 per month. The bids were not
opened in the open council as is usu-
ally done, but by the COMMITTEES at
a private meeting earlier in the day.
Upon motion the report of the COM
mittee was adopted and the contract
ordered given Wells.
An unfavorable report was made by
the street committee upon the petit
ton for a railroad crossing for Marie
street, and the report was adopted.
According to the committee the cross
ing is not needed there, as there is
one on each side of that thorough
fare already, and it would be an in
justice to the railroad to ask them
to construct another crossing so near
the others.

Slow Tax Paying.

Attention was called by Chairman
Dickson to the fact that thus far
this year $27O0 of the $10,637 due
on city taxes has been paid, which
shows that the money from taxes is
coming in unusually slow. Last
year at this time $500 had been paid.
Objection to the payment of $50

raised by some of the members, it
being held that the ground is now

work is required to keep the ground
in shape. 1t was suggested that the

Marshal Coffman called attention
to the difficulty in keeping minors

and gave as his belief that the ring

aid the officers in the matter. Ac-

rung as a curfew without conflicting
with any of the fire calls. The MAJ

Cattle Raiser's Views.

Lave stock Industries of South Da-
kota are endeavoring to secure figures
showing the total number Of stock
cattle which will be shipped from
the state this year to determine the
total freight bill paid by stock men.
In the testimony of H. d. Brown Of
the White River Cattle Company,
who has d ranch of 64O, 900 acres west
of Evarts, he stated that he was we'll
satisfied with the special rate ON
stock cattle which is IN force from
common Texas points, and is 800 q
car for cars containing forty head, or
50. 90 head fot the haul from Texas
to South Dakota. On Il mileage tar
itf it would have been impossible for
| the South Dakota cattle men to ship
in the young Texas stock, che ma
turing OF which has been u large
source OF profit to them in the las0
five years. A distance freight tarIff
would have been prohibltlve, and the
concession has done much toward the
upbuilding of the ranchman's busl-
ness. ln his testimony before the
Senate Committee, Mr.. Brown said
that he was well satisfied with the
rates made by railroads on cattle, and
that he much preferred to deal with
traffic managers rather than with q
political commission.

climate here seems fine, judging
from our short stay; the evenings re.
mlnd us OF Dakota, being so cool ami
nice.
Papa was real we'll ou the trip out

quite sick, but luckily we found q
doctor on the train and after a little
of his care, papa got better. He rides
