TO FACE INQUIRY
SENATE CLEARS DECKS FOR A
SWEEPING PROBE OF THE
LoRlMER CASE.
TWO Ways OF GETTING AT 1T
Both LaFoIette and Dillingham; Offer
Resolution for Adoption-Latter
Senator's Plan Looked On with
Favor by Democrats.

Washington.-An immediate inves-
ugation of sweeping scope of the re-
newed charges that Senator Lorimer
OF Illinois, is not entitled to his seat
is provided for in two resolutions by
Senators Dillingham; and LaFollette
in the senate.
Senator La Toilette called up his
resolution and made speech arraign-
ing the Illinois senator, who he charg-
ed with personal knowledge of the
spending of money in behalf of his
election. Both the democratic steer
ing committee and the republican
members on the committee on priv
ileges and elections discussed the
question and Senator Dillingham;,
chairman of the elections committee,
presented his resolution of inquiry
as a substitute for the La Toilette res
olution.
The LaFollette measure provides for
a renewed inquiry by a special COM
mittee, while the Dillingham; resolu-
ton directs the committee on privi-
leges and elections to make it. Dem
ocratic senators will support the Dill
lingham resolution. 1t is likely the
election committee will be instructed
to investigate through substitute
committee chosen through its own
members, but affirmed by the senate.

STATE ITEMS OF INTEREST

The firm Of Caldwell Bros. of Hart
ford, dealers in hardware and furni-
ture, has gone into voluntary bank
ruptcy. Charles Feyder has been ap-
pointed receiver. The liabilities are
listed around $4,000, with assets Of
about $4,000.
The First State bank at jefferson
has opened its doors for business. R.
j. AIthier, president of the new bank,
has as his associates in the business
his sons. Ralph Gilmore of Sioux
City is the cashier. This gives JEFF
ferson two good banks.
Jacob Mantel, living near Hudson,
narrowly escaped death as the result
of being bitten by pet cat. His left
hand was badly lacerated and blood
poisoning set in. For several days he
was in serious condition, but hard
work on the part of physicians pulled
him through.
The storehouses and office of the
Manhattan Oil company at Mitchell
took fire and were totally destroyed.
In the building were about 1000 gall
Ions of lubricating oils, several bac-
rels of gasoline and four or five bar
rels of kerosene, which exploded
when the flames reached them.

DAKOTA ATTORNEY GENERAL,
ROYAL c. JOHNSON, NOT
TO BE DISCARDED.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capital City, the Various
State Institutions and Diff
ferent Parts of the
State.

Pierre.-In an opinion Judge Corson,
concurred in by all the other members,
the supreme court holds that the
charges in the disbarment proceedings
against Attorney General Royal G.
Johnson, were not sustained by the
testimony presented, and the accusa-
ton was dismissed.
Johnson was charged with conduct
unbecoming lawyer, and unlawful
acts. The complainant in the pro-
ceedings was j. NJ. Prostollo, of Bard,
S. D., an Italian. The charges dealt
with civil case concerning relin-
quishment which was first investigat-
ed by Royal Johnson, at that time
states attorney of Hyde county. John
son abandoned it on account of insult
ficient evidence regarding the forging
of the REIMBURSEMENT by Prostrollo.
Prostrollo afterwards was tried by 7.
F. Auldredge of Highmore and A. B.
Fairbank of Huron, resulting in an as
sessment of $1,490 against him for
having sold bogus REIMBURSEMENT.
The complaint was first brought
against Prostrollo by j. M. Ringer, and
from the dismissal of the complaint
and subsequent trial, necessitating the
parting with the money received from
the bogus REIMBURSEMENT, the motives
for the disbarment proceedings were
taken.

Refunded For Cash.

Pierre.-The county commissioners
of this county have taken up an issue
of old capitol bonds amounting to
$4,000, bearing six per cent by pay
ing $4,000 Of the issue, and refunding
$4,000 at five per cent. The $4,000
being taken by B. A. Cummins of this
city. This leaves the bonded debt Of
the county at s125,000 in three pay
ments at five per cent and in such
shape that there will be no trouble in
meeting the payments when due. Out
side of this bonded debt the floating
warrant debt is down to about fifteen
thousand dollars and will soon be
wiped out and the county put on a
cash basis.

Laws Are Duplicated.

Pierre.-Another case of oversight
in the passage of bills during the
twelfth session has been discovered
with the publication and distribution
OF the session laws. The state has two
laws identical upon the same subject
in regard to the plea of insanity for
defense in criminal cases, providing
that in case defendant is acquitted
on a plea of insanity his condition
may authorize the court to commit
him to the hospital for the insane un-
til he shall become sane. House bills
73 and PSI each cover this same sub
ject with like wording, both introduced
by Representative Bracket of Meade
county, one approved on February Z
and the other on March 2.

PEACE NEWS SENT OUT.
Tranquil Turn Of Affairs in Northern
Mexico,

Juarez-Peace reigns sepreme in
northern Mexico, where news of the
signing of peace agreement had
penetrated. The only disquieting re-
ports OF the day were private advices
from Mexico City that members of
the "cientifico" party, deposed be-
cause of the Maderist agreement, were
talking Of starting another revolution
against the latter. Trouble from the
"cientificos," it is admitted here, is
expected, but whether or not it will
take the form OF an armed revolution
after Madero assumes power is not
clear. 1t is not believed that the
Mexican people will rally to any rev.
olutionost movement for some time
at least, and the opposition from the
"cientificos, 1t is believed, really will
be in the nature of vigorous political
activity.

Work For Nothing.

Redfield.-It is not often that man
becomes donor to the state, either
willingly or unwillingly, and it is in
the latter that Hon. Peter Norbeck,
of Redfield, state senator from Sphinx
county, has just acquired some promi-
nence through his construction of the
new artesian we'll at the state univer-
sity at Vermillion, and whicn will
cost Mr.. Norbeck the sum of $4,000,
all because he was unaware of GER
tain statute in the state of South Da-
kota
The legislature authorized the board
of regents to dig a new we'll at the
state university at Vermillion, and an
appropriation was made to cover the
cost of the project. This was done at
the time that Mr.. Norbeck was mem
ber of the senate. When the time
came to advertise for bids for the con-
struction of the we'll the only one re-
ceived was from Mr.. Norbeck for the
sum of $2,400. The work was done in
way entirely satisfactory to the board
and Mr.. Norbeck's bill was approved
by the board of regents, but when it
went to State Auditor Anderson to
receive the cash he remembered the
statute which prohibited any member
of the legislature, during the term for
which he shall have been elected, or
within one year thereafter, from being
interested, directly or indirectly, In
any contract with the state or any
county thereof, authorized by any law
passed during the term for which he
had been eelcted.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Norbeck was a
member of the senate at the time the
law was passed authorizing the con-
struction of the we'll he comes under
the provisions of the law in very
direct manner
