Bad COnviCtS pOmmeI DiveIbiSS

Undersheriff P. W. Divelbiss had
an exciting experience last Monday
Just before arriving at the state re
formatory with Nesbitt and McDer-
mott the two youthful prisoners re-
Gently sentenced from this county for
robbing Milby Frazier of gold watch.
McDermott, when arraigned before
the court, claimed to be a sufferer
from bad case of asthma and it is
said that both Judge Shumate and
Doctor Robinson had intended to
wlite to the prison authorities re
questing leniency on account of Nc
Dermott's physical condition. Since
last Mondays episode, both partie es
have concluded to withhold any rec.
concentrations and the prisoners must
take their own chances with the di
rectors of the institution. The fol
lowing is the account of the struggle
as detailed in the Denver News from
Buena Vista:
Deputy Sheriff Divelbiss of Garfield
county arrived in the city on Colora
do Midland train No. 4 this evening
with two men named Nesbitt and
McDermott, sentenced to intermediate
terms in the reformatory and sent
here from the district court at Glen
wood Springs,
They were handcutfed together and
entered the Midland omnibus togeth-
er. After driving through the city
and nearly to the institution. a mile
east OF the city, the driver, G. s
Hubbard, heard smothered cry for
help, and looking into the vehicle,
saw both convicts upon the officer,
who was about to succumb to the
choking he was receiving. Hubbard
stopped his team and ran to the side
of the bus, where he leaped through a
window The desperate men were
endeavoring to take revolver from
the deputy. Hubbard got hold of it
with his right hand, but was grab
bed by convict on the left. The
gun would not come out of the host
Ter, and Hubbard was compelled to
tear the leather scabbard full length
before he could secure it. After get
ting the gun to bear upon them they
gave up and We're finally landed in
the reformatory. The deputy rode
the remainder of the distance upon
the rear step and kept them covered
with his gun. Hubbard is very
small man, weighing less than LOG
pounds, but that did not deter him
from coming to the aid of the officer.

Gordon arrested A. T. Koehler of
Thomasville or a charge of dumping
lime in the Frying Pan killing a

victed before a Justice of the peace
and fined %25. 90 and costs, amounting
to about $37 So
The Frying Pan is one of the finest
trout streams in the state and has been
stocked at a great expense to the state
and Mr.. Gordon says the dumping of
lime or other harmful substances into
the stream will not be tolerated by the
department.
Other owners of limekilns have been
warned that they may look for similar
treatment if they are found polluting

OUR SCHOOLS
TO THE FRONT
After Much Careful Consideration
the School Board Completed
Its Selection Of Teachers
Monday Evening
THE SCHOOLS TO Be ACCREDITED

After the most careful consideration
of nearly one hundred and fifty appli
cations, the school board last Monday
evening completed the selection of the
teachers who are to have in charge
the Glenwood schools for the coming
year, each teacher being elected by
the unanimous vote of the board. Be
low are the names:
Charles II. King, superintendent.
Joseph Reed, principal.
Miss Carolyn L. Moss, first assist
ant
Miss Minnie NJ Conway second
assistant and music.
Miss Sue Claflin. eighth grade.
Miss Georgia H. Ragland. seventh
grade.
Miss Maude Harrison, sixth grade.
Miss Florence E. Dugan, fifth grade
Mrs. Elizabeth Tully, fourth grade.
Mis- Abbie Robinson, third grade.
Miss Cora NARROW, second grade.
Miss Clara C. Oberdorfer, first grade.
The position of superintendent was
first brought before the board several
weeks ago and Charles H. King, who
served in that capacity the latter part
of last term, was reelected. MIR.
King had given satisfaction and has
the entire confidence of the board, but
there was another thing just as impor-
tant to be considered in successful
school and that was the co operation
of the superintendent and each individ
ual teacher and an especial effort was
made by the board in this direction.
Five of the teachers of last year
were re elected and their past records
as successful instructors was their
recommendation.
Miss Conway, second assistant and
director of music, and Misses Claf1in
and Dugan, of the eighth and fifth
grades respectively are all three EN-
ployed on the recommendations of DR..
Sanford Bell. the state high school
examiner.
Miss Harrison has given splendid
satisfaction in the Aspen schools for
the past two years and comes highly
recommended.
Miss Georgia Ragland is from Kan
sas City but has taught for the past
year at Craig and is we'll qualified.
Miss Abbie Robinson. Glenwood
girl and State Normal graduate,
has been employed for several years in
the Basalt school, where she made a
good record.
With such able teachers there is no
reason why Glenwood Springs High
school should not go on the accredited
list where it should have been years
ago. There is no reason why Glen
wood should have to take even a
second place in educational matters in
the state and with proper co-opera
tion of the patrons, next year will be
banner year in our school history.
Superintendent King is anxious to
establish systematic course of study
and then see that each grade is
brought up to the mark.

DR.. houIton'S Successor Appointed

1t will be news to the old timers in
H. Moulton, former resident of this
place but for the past seven years
consul to Demerara is to return to the
United States. The following notice
appeared in the Demerara Argosy un
der date Of May 10:
The many friends of Dr. George H.
Moulton, United States Consul, will
learn with sincere regret that he is
about to sever his connection with the
colony on his retirement from the
Consular Service. The Doctor, who
will probably sail on or about the LIST
prox., has resided in the colony over
seven years, a longer period than any
of his predecessors except one and
during that time has enjoyed the re-
spect and esteem of both the official
and commercial community, and the
highest regard of the Consular body
In the city. Doctor Monlton himself
regards his forthcoming departure
with regret on account of the friendly
consideration he has always received
from the people during his temporary
sojourn. Doctor Moulton went te
Colorado about the time of the great
mining excitement in 1879, and prac
tised his profession until be was ap
pointed Consul at this port by Presi
dent Mckinley in 1893. He has pre-

Primary in Grant

It is amusing to read the edi-
torial of the machine papers that
are trying to convince the people
OF the state that the primary
system, as adopted and used in
this county, was a total failure,
and that the republican voters
were Disguised with it. There
were not twenty-five voters in
this county who will say that
they are not satisfied with the
primary system. Those who
are not satisfied with the prim-
airy system may be put into
three classes: The disgruntled
candidates, the politicians who
are expected to keep the county
IN line for the state machine, and
the men who are indebted to the
state machine for appointments.
The rank and file of this county
are thoroughly satisfied with the
system, and to them it means an
easy and convenient manner of
selecting their candidates for
the county Offices and settling
all factional disputes.-Grant

ABERDEEN, S. D, JANUARY 6, 1900
A Sorry Predicament

The primary election law is
certainly giving the machine ele-
ment of the republican party in
this state cause for grave con-
Germ. With such a law in oper-
alton the ring would be pretty
well stripped of its power.
The best evidence of the fear
and detestation of a primary law
by the gang in this state is the
desperate efforts they are max
ing to avert the enactment of
the law which through the initia-
tive, the Crawford and so-called
Boxer elements of the repub-
lican party in the state have set
in motion.
When the machine managers
met at Sioux Falls last week to
lay out the work of the legisla-
ture for the session just opened,
it is said that the question oc-
cupied much of the time and
likely put their we'll known skill
in thwarting the will of the peo-
pie to a most severe test. 1t is
not thought they would dare di-
rect the flat refusal of the legis-
lature to submit to the voters
the bill embodied in the initiative
petitions about to be presented,
but rather to have some fatal
flow or omission occur some
where in the course of this novel
method of enacting a law. An
other method which might be
adopted is the passage of a less
stringent or effective law at this
session and have it go into i'm
mediate effect thus robbing the
other measure of all popular in
terest long before it is voted up
on by the people. It would be
pretty tough to be driven to this
latter alternative. 1t would be
like the condemned felon COM
uniting suicide to avoid doing
business with the executioner.
They would likely prefer the
task of convincing the voters,
that the proposed measure is a
pernicious, hair-brained notion,
nothing short of rank populism.
They should ask the people to
refuse to vote into the peoples
hands too much of the heavy
burden of government which
the gang has uncomplainingly
borne so long and is still willing
to struggle along with.

Governor Elrod suggest that
the state census of 1905, in order
to have it done economically,
should be taken under the sup
ervision of the secretary of the
State Historical society by the
assessors of the townships and
cities without extra compensa-
ton. Whether this opportunity
to perform additional servic es
without additional pay is to be
extended to the historian Of
South Dakota or not, the COVER
nor did not make quite plain.
It would be just as fair for the
secretary as for the assessors.
