Commissioner Dunmlre has been
wrestling with a little legal propo-
sition this week. One day last
week an old gentleman who had
been working in a blacksmith shop
at Utica for the past two years,
came to Scotland to visit friends,
and while here was stricken with
paralysis and is now HELPLESS. AS
he is without means the authorities
Of Yankton county were requested
to take care Of him. This they at
first refused to do, claiming that
while the man had been staying
there he was not a naturalized cit
izen aud hence not a legal resident
Of their county. The matter was
referred to States Atty. Scoblic,
who, it appears, has succeeded in
convincing the Yankton county
authorities that tile old gentleman
is q Yankton county charge.
