Proves an Alihi

Information has reached the state to
the effect that j. c. Langston, Trip
county ,homesteader who some months
ago was arrested and taken to Walnut
Ridge, Ark, on the charge of murder,
has been acquitted Langston by the
aid of South Dakota friends, more
than score of whom went to Arkansas
to assist him, was able to establish an
alibi. Although he was arrested in
South Dakota last spring and taken to
Arkansas, not until recently were steps
taken by the authorities there to have
him tried. Even then his trial was
FASTENED through the action of Gov.
Wesley who wrote a letter to the gov
ernor of Arkansas asking that the
accused man be given as speedy a
trial as possible.

Increase in school Children

The school census of the state shows
an increase of 9, $50 in the school popu-
lation the past year showing total
school population at present Of 1863, FOG.
With the same ratio of school popu-
lation to total population as was shown
by the 1905 census, this figure would
give the state population of $50, 8O2
for the 1910 census. The same figure
would indicate that some of the older
counties in the eastern part of the
state have been losing in population,
and that the gain has been in the newer
counties.

Bank Deposits Increase.

In spite of the demands for ready
cash in handling the harvest of the
state, the banks of South Dakota show
an increase Of more than six hundred
thousand in deposits from June 80 to
September !.
The deposits of individuals outside of
savings bank deposits were on Sep
TENDER l, $75, 703, 1871, with over
three million dollars of savings deposits
to add to this, making the individual
deposits practically eighty million
dollars on that date, with certainty
that the amount will be greater before
another call is made, The state banks,
514 in number, carry by far the largest
amount of the deposits of individuals
with $48, 286, 912.19 in their call and
certificate accounts. The national
banks, SO in number, show personal
deposits amounting to $28, 4l6, 48l. 90.
The deposits in the national banks show
decrease, but tie increase in the
state banks more than make up for
this falling off.
The savings accounts of the state
are placed at SO, Ola, $780, 70, and of this
the national banks carry little over a
million, and the state banks a little
over two million. The savings accounts
accounts show net decrease of about

Survey For New Road

Surveyors of the proposed new rail
road line from Chamberlain to Huron
are within a few miles of Huron.
Work is being pushed as rapidly as
possible, and the survey will doubtless
be completed before cold weather sets
in. One of the party was in Huron
last week and talked very encouraging
Of the proposed route. Towns and
people generally along the line are
much interested and there is reason to
believe that construction work on the
new line will soon be commenced.
