fight for the land Office business which
is rapidly increasing with the numbers

Petitions are now Seing circulated in,
h northern half of Butte county ask
ing that that section OF the country be
taken from the land district at Rapid
City and that a new division be estab-'
1ished with. an office at Aberdeen. This
brought out the enmity of a number OF,
prominent stockmen who, headed by
George L. Lennon, are circulating "a,
counter petition asking that. Lennon,
named after the principal petitioner,
may be chosen for the proposed new
land Office.
Rapid City has entered the fight to-
retain the whole district by showing
that a division would mean a completes
set Of record books to be copied for the
new division at great expense as ali cf
the north townships of Butte county
nre now practically settled and United
States commissioners scattered
through that section have the right 10

SALESMAN APPEALS TO
ROOSEVELT; SAYS he
IS BEING ~PERSECUTED

Canton, S. D., Nov. 22.-Canton peo-
pie are mystified by the sudden disap-
pearance of Eli Stein, a travelling sales
man. A few days g he whipped u
small boy whom he claimed had been
throwing stones at his son, for which
he was arrested.
Stein secured an attorney and said
he would fight the matter to the bit
ter end. He also informed the COM
munity that he had written to Presi-
dent Roosevelt and several foreign am
bassadors making the charge that he
was being prosecuted on account of his
Jewish extraction. He made a deter
mined fight to nave the case dismissed
and finally called for a jury which was
duly impaneled and ready for work on
Thursday morning, but Mr.. Stein did
not appear. His attorney vas as much
surprised as the prosecution.
AS the costs were heavy a determined
effort was made to locate the missing
man, and report has II that he Is IN
Sioux City. His trunk and goods in
this city have been attached for pay
ment Of costs.
Mr.. Stein acted somewhat peculiar
and It Is thought by many that worry
over the affair has somewhat unbal-
anced him. He seemed to think that
a general conspiracy was organized
against him. ...H . ..
