Great Empire Of Stanley

Lester Crozier, who has been in
charge of the county for some
time, created little excitement on
the street Wednesday forenoon
He had been begging Sheriff Hus-
ton to be allowed to leave his
quarters at the Jail, and at last the
officer said if he would behave
himself he could come up to the
office. Crozier had no sooner been
released than he started down town.
George then told him that he
could walk down to the hotel and
back with him. but the patient
stopped at Fischer Bros store.
He then started north on Dead
wood street and warned George
not to follow him. X. f. Curran
was deputized. and after a brief
wrestling match in the mud and

taken back to Jail where George
says he can remain until the law

That Kirby Case

am in receipt of a communica-
tion from W. +. Bancroft, State
Game Warden in which he sets
forth in true light the case of Joe
Kirby the Sioux Falls attorney
who was recently " acquitted of the
charge of hunting without license.
Mr.. Kirby. in order to test the
license feature of the game law.
which he claimed was null and
void, hunted without a license and
detied arrest. As soon as positive
evidence was secured against Mr..
Kirby he was arrested. 1t was
generally Y understood between the
game department and Mr.. Kirby
that the case would be in the ma
ture of a friendly test case. as both
parties were anxious to take the
matter to the supreme court where
a definite opinion could be OBJ
tanned. Mr.. Kirby was to plead
guilty to the charge before a JUS
tice of the peace in Sioux Falls.
then he would be fined and there
upon would swear out writ of
habeas corpus and Ia Ike the matter
to Judge Jones of the circuit court
and if the Judge ruled against him
he would take the case to the su-
preme court.
This was practically arranged
for at the suggestion of Mr.. klr-
by, but at the last moment Kirby
weakened on account of his lnabil-
lty to find any decisions as TO the
legality of this particular feature
of the game law that would lend
strength to his case, and he de
manded jury trial.
Let it be understood that the
Jury was there to render a decision
as to the guilt or innocence of the
accused from the evidence sub
mitted. and not to decide as to the
constitutionality Of this part of
the game law. After an hours
deliberation the jury brought in a
verdict of mot guilty" notwith-
standing the fact that Mr.. Kirby
had admitted his guilt.
The matter now stands where it
originally stood and there is yet a
prominent attorney to be found
who holds the same opinion as Mr..
Kirby.

This is what makes your $3.50 acre

arisen from one dollar and twenty
five cents per acre to the present
value. and it has taken fifty years
to accomplish this result. South
Dakota will beat it in one half the
time. No state in the union has
made the stride to compare with
South Dakota for the last ten
years. One great and fundament-

PROBATIONARY SYSTEM
PROVES BIG SUCCESS;
Juvenile Offenders Ordinarily
Prove TraCtabIe When Placed
in Charge Of the Officers

What mysterious spell is there in the
probation office of Los Angeles county
which so affects the minds of boys and
girls of youthful age that it has
stronger hold on them than ether llelr
parents or the law?
That is the question which has been
mvstifying detectives, parents ana
others who have had anything to 90
with delinuuent children brought into
the probation office each day a1ter
thev are disposed of by the juvenile
court, which generally places them on
probation.
chief Probation officer Dodds and
Probation Officer Mclaughlin both ap-
pear to have some peculiar power over
the minds of the youngsters when
makes them confess their misdeeds and
causes them to try to live correctly.
MANY REPORT WEEKLY
Hundreds of girls and boys who
have been found guilty of delinquency
in one form or another during the past
few wears report to the probation offl-
Ger once a month or once week. Many
of them have defied their parents ana
the juvenile court habtually, but once
thev get into the hands of the proba-
ton office and commence to report reg
ularlv they usually experience change
of heart and try their best to keep on
the straight path and make something
of themselves.
Several instances have arisen of late
where youngsters, reporting regularly
to the probation office, have violated
the law in some respect once more and
have been apprehended. They have
denied any delinquency to detectives,
narents and the court but when con-
fronted by a probation officer have
broken down and confessed.
1t has become a matter of pride with
the probation officers, this power over
| the youngsters which enables them 10
secure complete confession OF thelr
misdeeds, and it is claimed as the chief
asset of the successful application Of
the probation law.
he TELLS THE SECRET
"There is not much of a secret about
it," said Probation Officer Dodds yes
terday. 1T is simply a case where we
place the future of the delinquents in
their own hands. We respect their con-
fessions and take an interest in each
person reporting to the office. We 40
not preach to them as to what they
should do. but we ask them to do what
is right and assist them in every way
possible There is some good in all of
them and we make the most of this,
ignoring the bad, except in cases where
probation has been violated.
1--WE have hundreds of boys and girls
who appeared absolutely hopeless cases
when first placed in our hands, but
who have grown to good citizens and
are in frequent cases above the aver
age of those who never came into
courts for delinquency.
"The main thing is to talk to them
as though you were on the same basis
with them The trouble with many
would-be reformers is that they talk
from too high a standpoint and so
never gain in the interest of the young
people. If you really take an interest
in them they respond to it wonderfully.
and the result is that they sometimes
place more faith in you than they do
/ in the members of their own families" d"
