ore cars and ground to death.
Gov. Crawford has appointed o. N.

Armour, S D., has been let to August
Goetz. OF the Goetz Construction com.
pany, of Yankton, s. d. The contract
price was $9.l26.50. Construction will
be commenced this mouth.
The late Gov. Edmunds, of Yankton,
held a IS, 900 life insurance policy in q
New Jersey company. The policy was
taken ont in 1861 and SITS had been
paid in premiums on it. The policy
was probably one of the oldest in exis.
tence in the northwest.
Hiram Hippen, who was shot in the

The record of homestead movement
into Stanley county at Pierre is one
hundred cars for February, and 2l5 cars

grant trains are going west Of the Mis-
souri, at Chamberlain and Mobridge
probably as fast as they are at Pierre.
and this, with the movement coming
into the western part Of the state from
the south through the Black Hills,
means that the western part of South
Dakota is receiving thousands of new
settlers this year, and the census OF
1910 will shove the center Of population
long way toward the Missouri river,
from the point where it has stood for
many years.

The last legislative session passed o
printing bill which in one of its provi.
sions required all state officers and
boards TO secure their printing by COM
petitive bids At the meeting of the
state printing commission last week
they decided after SIX months trial OF
the new law that in many cases the
advertisements for bids on small jobs OF
work cost az much as did the work
itself, and that the plan was too expens-
i've, and decided to "cut IL out" az
unsatisfactory and expensive. The
advertisements for the printing of
reports aud other state printing outside
Of stationery and small jobs, is being
sent out, and the bids will be opened on
the 25th OF June.
The Milwaukee railway bridge across
the Missouri river, between Wakpala
and Points, is completed, and the first
train to cross was the east bound pas
senger from Minnee polls to Miles City.
The estimated cost Of the structure
was 81 100000 1t has taken just two
years to build it. There are three main
piers, varying in depth from ninety.two
to forty-seven feet below the bed of the
river. The three main spans are 425
feet long, and the trestle span 800
feet. The length of the trestle approach
on the west side of the river is 1000.

employed since the work commenced,
working night and day. Two lives
were lost by accidents.
At least two towns in South Dakota

Hon. Geo. h. Marquis, of the Third
judicial circuit Monday as to the valid
ity of the signatures on the petitions,
and both petitions were thrown ont as
the evidence was strong that fraud was
INDUCED II. in Toronto especially, one
name being that Of a claim holder in
Canada, who has been spending a few
weeks in Toronto, another being man
under charge of q guardian and two
others being the saloonkeeper himself
and his bartender buying lot-and
not a very valuable one either-just in
time to get their names on the petition.
About the same irregularities were
found in Goodwin, where three men, in
order to make themselves free holders,
bought a lot together. Since the john
son Forsythe revival meetings held in
this place in January, a strong feeling
against saloons has been making itself
manifest, and IL 10 believed at the pres
emit time that they will be voted out OF
Clear Lake in April, at which time the
city election takes place.

Simpson, son of A. H. Simpson, mine
superintendent of the Branch Mint
property at Galena, slipped and the keen

ing vital organs and probable death.
Young Simpson will recover.

of Yankton, is in the county Jail at that
place, under 81 900 bonds for stabbing
his brother.in-law, Mike Walsh, Of
Sioux City, Iowa, with butcher knife.
The wound, two inches long. lie not
thought to be dangerous. Brennan, who
is supposed to have been drunk, was
quarreling with Walsh and was in an
ugly mood. Bystanders interfered or
Walsh's injury might have been more
serious.
William Matterson, who claims his
home to be at Kansas City, Mo-, was
arrested at Redfield last week on the
charge of passing forged check. Mat

Schumacher in the Milwaukee railroad
yards in Elk Point, was accidentally
shot Friday, afternoon by Fred Linch

bottom of 2-foot we'll, where he had
been working during cavern. Hughes

all night under a ton of rock and earth.
Hughes cannot explain how he escaped
suffocation, but says he remembers
fainting several times. He insisted on
working Friday, but physicians pre-
vented.
A sheriff bringing his prisoner with
him in an application for requisition
was the rather unusual sight in the gov
ernor's office at Pierre Thursday. The
officer was J. e. Oliver, of Perryville,
Ark, who had secured p. G. Schooler

of murder in the first degree. The

her attorneys present and was not
placed on the stand. DIR. Elliott, a
neighbor Of the Harbours, and the prin-
cipal witness for the state, told Of the
incidents leading up to the shooting of
the girl. He declared positively that
just after Rose had entered her mothers
room he had heard high words between
the two and then the girl pleading,
mamma, please don't strike me-" The
attorneys for the defense asked only a
couple OF minor questions of DR.. Elliott
and the case closed. For the present
Mrs. Harbour will make no attempt to
secure her liberty on bail.
