of his victory while here. made the fol-
lowing statement:
There is no question in my mind but
that the prime movers in the attempt to

indirectly in the defense of Mrs. kauf-
mann. This / know to be true, from the

oiutlon was passed attacking me, only
those thus interested spoke in favor of or
urged the adoption of the resolution.
The proceedings against me were indeed
books, so far as | am advised, but one
precedent in the United States, and none
in the English reports. The proper method
IN such cases is TO admit the applicant
TO practice and afteTWard. If there be
grounds, bring charges for his disbarment.

fore which the Kaufman case now

Nlctlon of Mrs. Kaufman, but later for

ewett Bros. & Jewett, which operated
wholesale grocery houses at Sheldon. Ia.
and Sioux Falls, S. D., and which is
closely allied with the firm of Jewett
Bros, Of this city, has decided at a meet
ing held in this city to close up the whole

with the Sioux Falls house. The member
Of Jewett Bros. & Jewett are H. C. Jewett
and r. N. Jewett of this city and C. A.
Jewett, of Sioux Falls.
This step is taken because the territory
covered by the Sheldon house can be
served by the Sioux Falls house just as
conveniently and with less expense. Here
tofore the Sheldon house has covered
northwestern Iowa and southern Mime
sofa. 1t is figured that it will take until
the first Of the year to wind up the bust
ness of the Sheldon house. The change
will in no way affect the local firm of
