Enabling Act.
Kaniho was first on his feet in de-
bate, moving that the veto be not sus-
tanned He reviewed In detail all the
circumstances of the case, dwelling on
the fact that the employees of the
Mayor S choice tried to work but were
not allowed. Kaniho made a long ap-
peal to the House to override the veto.
Douthitt moved that the veto be sus-
tanned Sheldon seconded the motion.
Kamahu suggested bringing back the
original bill and amending it to meet
the Governor objections, but thought
it best after all to override the veto,
then amend the bill and pay off the
laborers quickly.
The Speaker stated that this was a
new one on him and regretted that he
could not see any way to adopt the
suggestion.
Kaleiopu said that amending the bill
had been its death and that it was
the Legislature, not the Governor, to
blame for the laborers being kept long

House to rush his new bill.

As to One of the Certainties.

John O. Nelson, the county
treasurer, has a continued story
IN this issue that will be of ab.
sorbing interest to a mum Der of
persons. The plot reminds one
of the old proverb that there is
nothing certain but death and
taxes. The new law requires
the treasurer to publish the
name of the party to whom the
property is assessed. Many of
these are not now the owners
OF the property, but the treas
urer is obliged to publish the
names as they appear on the as
sess ment rolls In relation to
the unpaid personal tax the
treasurer wishes to state that
he will be compelled under the
law to place all the delinquent
personal tax in the hands of the
sheriff for collection, and that
this will be done at an early date,
SO it behooves those delinquent
to make immediate payment and
save costs.

BURNED HIS BUILDlNG.
}. IL. Hillard Confessed to COmpli>
city in Burning His Store and Got
Four and Half Years,

State Fire Marshal Frank A. Craft
returned Friday evening from How
ara after doing bit OF detective work
that for results obtained would make
Sherlock Il dimes turn green with envy.
Ihe case grew out of the destruction
by fire at Howard on the night of
September 22nd of a restaurant
belonging to j. Fl. Hillard of Pipe
stone. A young lady named Lonza
Russell had charge of the restaurant
at the time of the fire and was suppos-
ed to have made her escape from the
burning building in her night clothes
at 4:30 in the morning.
The fire and the manner in which
it was set aroused the suspicious of
the Howard chief of police, r. B.
Debolt, and in reporting to State
Insurance Commissioner Basford at
Pierre he called attention to the fact
that on building worth $1,000 in
surance was carried amounting to
$4,000. This was at once reported
here and Mr.. Graft was set to work.
A short investig alton and his sus-
picions were directed to Miss Russell,
who had left Howard and gone to
Sioux Falls to live. He followed her
there and after three days of clever
work and one gruelling examination
of the woman, which lasted % hours,
he secured signed confession from
her which implicated fully Mr.. Hillard
the owner of the property. Hillard
had been drawn to Sioux Falls,
ostensibly to make an adjustment
with the insurance company for his
loss, and was there arrested by the
sheriff. He was taken to Howard on
Wednesday and there confronted
with the confession made by Miss
Russell. He waived exanin alton and
his bonds were fixed at $1,000. The
day following he weakened and ex.
nressed desire to confess and Judge
Tayl was called from Huron Thurs
day.
The papers were then perfected and
the plea OF guilty entered by Hillard.

should receive credit. Mr.. Craft had

To Stop Incpndiarism,

Frank A. Craft, the state fire
marshal, who was in town Mon
day, is doing some good work in
seeking TO lessen the number of
incen diary fires that are con-
stantly occurring. While pre-
vious to the appointment of the
state fire warden we understand
there never had been a convic-
ton for arson in this state.
since Mr.. Crafts appointment
two years ago, he has been
able to send to the penitent tiary
eight persons who have been
guilty of this crime and three to
the reform school. 1t frequently
occurs that some malicious party
with a grudge against neighbor
sets fire to his neighbours barn
or 2ranarv, and a large amount
Of property is destroyed in this
way. The fire warden is making
arrangements to secure a brace
of bloodhounds, which he will
have kept in thorough training
for tracking miscreants of this
character, and which will be sent
to any part cf the state upon ap-
plication to the fire marshal at
Mitchell.
Mr.. Craft was called over to
this part of the state by the re-
port that a threshing machine
man was operating his machine
without giving bonds, but the
party had complied with the law
by taking out insurance.
