BY a decision of Judge Haney, of
the supreme court, Mrs. Kaufman,
the wife of the brewer at Sioux Falls,
who is charged with the murder of a
girl who worked in the Kaufman
home. has been admitted to bail.
This decision will hardly meet with
popular approval. The statutes pro-
vide that bail may be admitted in
cases where punishment may be
death, unless the proof is evident or
the presumption great" If proof is
not evident and the presumption great
in this case, there is the greatest lot
of liars in Sioux Falls and the south
ern part of the state that can be found
ON the face of the earth.
Attorney Chas. p. Warren was at
Huron Saturday to oppose a motion
by the attorneys for the G. IL NV.
R'y for a new trial in the matter of
the road tax levied by De Smet town
ship in 1905. The company claimed
the tax to be illegal and sought to re-
strain from collecting thesame. Their
method of procedure was by i%njunc-
ton. The compan,'s attorneys asked
for and secured a temporary %iniunc
ton, which upon hearing was dissoly-
ed by Judge Writings court. The
motion heard Saturday was by the
company's attorneys for a new trial
of the case, which motion was denied
by the court. We understand that
the company will carry the matter to
the supreme court. Col. Robt. Stew
