Pierre, S. d.. Nov. 2S.-That either

j. Morris. OF Minnehaha, will be the
next speaker OF the house. is regarded

his championship of the negotiable in

PIERRE MAN FOUND
GUILTY OE ASSAULT

Pierre, S. D. Nov. 23.-After the dis
Closing of much sensational evidence in
the case of the State VS.. James Hatten,
the jury found the defendant guilty
OF assault. The complaining witness
was Mrs. Guy Bush, of East Pierre.
The case occupied the attention of the
circuit court, Judge Lyman T. Boucher
presiding, for two days and narrowing
cross examination disclosed the guilt
OF Hatten. The sentence will be pro
nouneed today.
Mrs. Gregg, of Blunt, proprietor of
the Dickoyer house, carried up the case
instituted against her by Hotel In
spector Hopkins for noncompliance
with the statute governing fire escapes.
Al the preliminary hearing she testified
that the ropes which We're provided as

arrested the ropes had been taken
down and were undergoing . thorough
cleaning. Before the case came up be-
fore the circuit court she paid the

monstrance against her fine.

SISSETON INDIAN
PRODUCE GRAIN and
HOLD COUNTY FAIR
One Serious Drawback Among
Dakota Sioux Is Acquired
Thirst for Whisky.

Aberdeen, s.. D, Nov. 21.-The In
dams on the Sisseton reservation, in
the northwestern portion Of South Da-
kota, are making rapid progress in
civilization. Major s.. A. Allen, the
reservation agent, says that while
dams are full blooda, IS per cent Of
them have become agriculturists and
have proven themselves thrifty M
fairly successful as farmers.
There are about 1000 Indians on the
reservation, which is 80 miles long and
dams have been allotted about 400,-
900 acres, while the remainder is now
in the hands Of the whites.
Fair Rivals Counties Exhibits.
From his land the Indians this year
raised approximately 10O,0 900 bushels of
wheat, $4,000 bushels of oats, 10000
bushels Of corn, and 1000 bushels Of
flax, The fair this fall compared ia
vorably with any Of the county fairs
In South Dakota. Included in the ex-
hibits were 80 exhibits of small grain,
40 of corn, and a large number Of
vegetables. Fine showings were also
made of cattle, horses, hogs, sheep,
chickens enc other products of the
farm.
Thirteen Churches There.
There are ID churches on the reser-
yation, the Episcopal, Presbyterian and
Catholic denominations predominating.
During the last two years 125 good
farm houses nave been built.
The Indians are. in the main, virtu-
GUS, self respecting, and show a re-
markable affinity for civilization, the
only drawback to their advancement,
according to Major Allen, being their
fondness for liquor, which is m
times supplied them by bootleggers, in
spite of the strenuous efforts of the
government to keep the liquor dis
pensers out of reach Of the Indians.
A recent forcible Illustration Of the
d~emoralizing effect of whisky among
the Indians is that of Jake Keocke who
was yesterday sentenced to five years
in the government prison at Fort Leav-
enworth, Kan, for the murder Of
George Kampeska. Both men filed up
on Peruna when they were unable to
get whisky at the regular places where
it was kept on sale, and while in a
drunken condition, the crime was COM
mlrred.
