FISH WAYS MUST BE BUILT.

Watertown-W. F. Bancroft, state
game warden, will enforce the law
OF South Dakota providing that fish
ways must be built in all dams across
streams of the state. He is devotins
his attention now to opening the Big
Sioux river from it mouth neal Sioux
City to its source in Lake Kampeska,
near this city.
The most serious difficulty in keep
ing the Sioux open for fish is encount-
cred at Sioux Falls, where several
large dams now exist. The owners of
these have been notified that they
must construct fishways or action will
be taken against them in court. Own
ers of other big dams on the lower
Sioux have signified their willingness
to build the fishways if the river is
opened at Sioux Falls.
The anne action will be taken as
to all dams across the James river
and ali other Of the larger streams of
the state.

INHERITANCE TAX CASE.

Pierre-Attorney General Clark is
not satisfied with the findings of the
supreme court in the McKennan in
h~eritance tax case, in which the court
held that the present inheritance tax
law is unconstitutional. His conten-
ton is that the law, in his opinion,
is good. and he has filed a petition
for a rehearing of the case, which
will act as a stay of procedure until
il is argued and a further decision
reached. The decision is of special
interest, and has brought many in
quiries from county %treasurers over
the state as to further collections of
this tax under the ruling of the
court.

Instead of wooden dens, the Gollmar

A UNIQUE FIGURE.

With the death of Freeman Knowles,
former congressman and for many
years the best known socialist in the
state. there passes a figure that has
beer indelibly marked upon the his
tory of DeadwOod the town renowned
for its many unique characters.
Mr.. Knowles was a native of Har-
mony, Me, receiving a hi7h school
education in that state. AS n sixteen
year-old boy he enlisted in the Six
teenth Maine infantry, and served
throughout the civil war. During the
war his family removed to the then
South Dakota territory, locating on a
farm zeal Vermillion, where young
Freeman came after his service. Soon
thereafter he went to Denison, Iowa,
studied law and was admitted to the
bar of that state, practicing there until
1886. In 1888 he was married TO Miss
Alice Graham, by whom he had sever
children: Guy and Olive of Dead
wood; Mrs. J. f. league of Helena,
Mont; Mrs. Matt Anderson of Port
land, Ore; Mrs. Earl Cuthbertson.
Miss Marie Knowles and Ellery
Knowles all of Deadwood.
In 1883 Knowles came to Tilford,
Meade county, where he entered the
newspaper business and in 1890 came
to Deadwood and conducted a demo-
cratic daily, the old Independent, not
ed for its brilliant style and bitter
tone. In 1898 he was elected to con-
gress as a populist and served one
term. About eight years ago he join
ed the socialist party and became an
ardent worker and leader. being twice
a candidate for governor on that tic
ket. In 1905 he started the Lantern,
a weekly socialist paper, and commenc-
ed a vehement and bitter attack upon
the social and economic systems of
the country and more particularly in
III community III NulCu ne 1Ntu. AL
able writer, with a clear conception
of his subjects and a concise style,
he attracted attention. He never hest
tated to attack anyone whom he be-
lieved represented the system and
conditions he was fighting in v;triolic
style, and made many bitter enemies
as we'll as strong friends. He was
particularly daring in his writing and
fearless of the consequences, advocat-
ing strongly the cause of labor and
taking an active part in the recent
dispute between the Homestake Min
ing company and the unions. A year
ago, during the June floods that wash
ed out bridges throughout the Black
Hills, Knowles, who had succeeded in
securing enough signers to a petition
for referendum of the military law,
made his way through the storm and
walked across a sunken bridge near
Whitewood in order to- set a train that
would take him to Pierre with the
petition in the required time.
Last year he was indicted by the
federal grand jury, tried and convict
ed for expressing his views on free
love in his newspaper, which he sent
through the mails, and went to Jail
at Rapid City sooner than pay the
fine. Six weeks later his family in
duced him to pay it and be released.
He had the distinction Of being an
honary member OF the Western Fed
Grafton of Miners, for whose cause he
fought ti~relessly.
