MAYOR PILLSBURY
OF SIOUX FALLS
ACCUSES AN EDITOR
Another Libel Suit, This Time
Because of Insinuations Of

plant Of Mayor Frank w. Pillsbury.l
charging criminal libel. Mr.. Scott ap-l
waived examination n was bound
over to the-.next term Of circuit court

furnished.
The action is based on an article I'M
the last issue of the Journal, in which
his chief Of police, Frank L. Wade, andl
Jones & Emmke, proprietors OF theI
Cataract, were seen coming out Of al
room on the second floor OF the Cat,
aract between midnight and / o'clock

In conference with gamblers.
Graft Is lntimated.
The article further insinuated that
the mayor and chief Of police We're
conniving with certain gamblers, and
saloon men who were permitted toi
break the law. The Journal has, ever
since Mayor Pillsbury was installed
into office, made many in%sinuations at
graft and co%nnivance with certain sa-
loon men and gamblers, but this is the
article was open enough to make a casel
of libel.
This will make four criminal libel
suits to be tried at the next term Of
circuit court in which newspaper men
n women are defendants. The otherl
three We're instituted by Joe Kirby, an,
attorney of this city, against ]. A. Ross

Harrison Durand, professor of English
in 4ankton college addressed the Ma
tional Conference of Charities and Cor
rections here on the campaign OF child
saving carried On by the National
Children's Home society. He said:
1T is by the individual. state societies.
that the cl1iit-sav wing work is directly
carried on. Each society is composed
of benevolent men and women of the
state, prominent in social and public
life, who give of their money and their
time to it's support. The Immediate
working head OF each society is tho
state superintendent.
The societies for the most part ara
not endowed and do not receive ai(!
from public treasures but derive their
support from voluntary contributions.
These contributions are from churches,
public schools. Sunday schools, fra!
ternal lodges aud societies of variousl
kinds, and also from individuals of.
every occupation and degree. LARGE
gifts are rare; small gifts are multi
t~udinous. From w to three dollars is
perhaps the average size of gifts to
the society. The number of persons
who actually contributed one dollar or.
more last year to the Wisconsin society,
was over $780,; to the Illinois society
was il,000. An estimate on this point,
baGed 81 such recordS as are avail
