TREATICAL
COMBINE MEETS
OPPOSITION

The chosen appraisers, Messrs. M d.
T. Simonton, p. H. Burnett and l..
C Ables, this morning started their
investigation into the conditions of
the local theaters. This morning
work was confined to cursory eXami
nations, and tomorrow the managers
of the various theaters will render
inventories. An inventory of the New
Orpheum was taken this morning.
When the other lists have been re-
ceived, then the appraisers will go to
work, and make their valuations. The
trio have Ions job in front of them,
and it is not anticipated that they
will be finished for some time yet.
There is a feeling abroad that the
efforts to combine will be fruitless,
as the short consultation that has
been held has given the feeling that
in the majority of cases, better bust
ness may be obtained by remaining
outside the ring. The report of the
appraisers, however will reveal the
position in a much clearer light, and
then the matter can be gone into on
{ definite footing. At is is now there
is lot of conjecture and superstition
Should the combine be effected,
Hilo will benefit, for the proprietors
of the Gaiety Theater there will stand
in the ring, and in this way circuit
can be formed, by which Hilo will be
assured of a certain number of ar
lists and pictures each month, so that
permanent show can be maintained
there, if it is found profitable to dc
so.

FINED FOR SPLITTING.

The first prosecutions under the an.
ti-spitting ordinance were before the
police court this morning. A Korean
and Porto Rican were before Judge
Lymer. Both pleaded guilty, but the
Porto Rican added that he knew moth
ing of the new ordinance. A fine of 81
was imposed in each case, Judge Ly-
mer remarking that he had taken into
consideration the facts that the men
had pleaded guilty and that the prose
cutions were the first under the new
law.

SUPERVISORS
INSPECT ROADS

Mayor Fern, with Supervisors
Dwight, Low and Amana took a
trip round the is.ana yesterday to
have "a look at the roads. They found
some of them in pretty tough condi-
ton, the weather recently having
been very heavy. The trip was an
evidence of the harmony between the
committee and the mayor and among
the members of the committee, and
various plans were discussed for get
ting better roads.

GREAT VARIETY
Of CRIMINALS
ANO GRIMES

The cosmopolitan nature of HOMO.
lulu was shown in an unpleasant man.
ner this morning in Judge Coopers
court room The room was crowded
with Hawaiians, part-Hawaiians, Fill
pinos. Negroes, Portuguese and there
was even a German present Some
of those that we're there seemed quite
Indifferent to the charges that they
were there for.
1t seems pity that the court re-
cords of this city should be burdened
by the outrages that such people COM
nit and judging by the experiences
of the past, it seems safe to say that
with a diminution of the oriental po-
pulation, there would be an appre-
ciable decrease in the number of re-
voting crimes that are committed.
Those there this morning seemed to
trouble not all that they had charg-
es hanging over their heads that would
perhaps cost them their liberty for the
remainder of their natural lives, or
possibly their lives. Most of them
seemed to take no notice of the pro-
ceedings. One little Japanese slept
through portions of the debates, and
only awoke with a start now and
again, soon to resume his slumbers I'M
Ill some one with a louder voice than
another would wake him up
! Judge Cooper had a big task before
him in allotting dates for the hearing
of these cases, for there were over
fifty charges pending. Some of the
lawyers wanted delays and some
. wanted speedy trials. The judge
passed a few caustic comments on the
J delays that had taken place. There
was one man charged with having
, driven an automobile that he had
} never been in. There was another
! case that had been dragging on for
: months. AS a matter of fact it first
l came up before he sat on the bench
/ He would like to see little more ex
/. petition used. 1t deranged matters
} a whole lot when such delays were
allowed to take place, and he hoped
!. that it would cease.
I Eventually, many of the cases were
: set, and on paper it looks as though
( there will be a lot of long-standing
charges settled at an early date.

Shober Has District Plan

Pierre-While there appears to DO
a strong sentiment up to the pres
emit for the following out OF the
suggestion of Governor Wesley that
the division of the state into con-
gressional districts be one district
west Of the river and two east, with
the dividing line along the south lines
of Hughes Beadl- and Brookings
county. there is move toward
changing this. Former Lieutenant
Governor Shober. who is out from
Washington, AS q districting scheme
in which he says that the population
showing of the census should be used
as the basis without considering any
future growth. His districts are to
be one with all that part of the state
west Of the Missouri river. and the
counties of Hughes, Hany, Hyde, Sui
ly, Faulk. Potter. Edmunds. Wal
worth, Mcpherson and Campbell in
cluded with the west river counties.
For hfs districts east Of the river he
uses the territory included east of the
west lines Of Brown. Sphinx and Bead
lie counties. east along the south line
Of Beadle and iKngsbury, and south
to Include Lake and Moody counties.
The third district to include all that
part of the state east Of the Missouri
and south of the above defined line.

FOR GOOD ROADS
Legislative Committee Of Conference
Make Draft of Bill

Legislative Committee Of Conference
Make Draft Of Bill
Redfield-A legislative committee
appointed By the Good Roads Con-
ference of South Dakota has been
In session here considering legis-
lation relative to the public high
ways to be introduced at the pes
emit session of the legislature. Sem
ator. Norbeck and Representative
Issenhuth met with the committee. A
number of the committee had prepar-
ed bills to be submitted, but after go
ing over the measures proposed q bill
was prepared which, it is thought,
will meet the approval of the good
roads advocates and enable the coun-
ties and townships to build and re-
pair county roads by contract and un-
der competent supervision. The new
law proposes to abolish the road over
seer and make the township super
visors directly responsible for the
roads in each township. A more I'M
portant feature of the new law will be
the payment of the fall taxes In cash
instead of in labor, The law also pro-
vides for the building and repair Of
roads by contract in each township
and also contains the provision that
where the expenditure proposed Is
more than $4,000 the amount shall
be paid out Of the county road fund
and under county supervision. The
county commissioners are authorized
to levy road tax not to exceed 5
mills, and this may be increased to
ten mills if authorized by vote OF the
county. In addition to this each auto
mobile owner in the county Is taxed
at $500 per year to Re paid into the
county fund this assessment to be In
lieu of all other road and bridge taxes.
It is believed that this measure will
allow the county and township author
tiles to cooperate in the maintenance
of good roads and compel the automo-
BILE owners to pay their share OF the
expense. =.

Wants Longer Road to Pen

Aberdeen-In the opinion of Judge
Mccoy of the state supreme court, the
state should provide some intermedi-
ate penal institution, between the
state penitentiary and the reform
school, where most first offenders
should be sent.
In an address on Criminal Punish
ment," at the legislative banquet at
Aberdeen, Judge Mccoy stated that
his experience on the bench as
state circuit judge and later as
member of the state supreme court
had convinced him that in most in
stances, the man who was convicted
for a criminal offense the first time
was not bad at heart. But, he stated
the county Jail where the criminal
usually spends several months be-
tween his arrest and his conviction
and the state renitentialy, are both
prolific schools for crime, and 1t Is
rarely the case that criminal does
not not emerge from the penitentiary
worse than when he entered.
Judge Mccoy thinks that the state
legislature should provide for re
formatory where men convicted %
the first time may be gi~en chance
to redeem themselves without coNin
in contact with the older and Fard
ened criminals who have been sent tt
prison for a second or more frequent
crimes

STATE HISTORIAN
THE LEGISLATURE MAY PROVIDE
FOR APPOINTMENT BY
THE GOVERNOR
TO MAKE APPROPRIATIONS
Under the Constitution me State wiz
Establish Department EN-
bracing Its Statistics
History, Etc.

Pierre-Capitol hill rumors HUT a.
proposed legislation affecting the flu
ture of the State Historical Society
and the Department of History. 1t
credence en- be placed in these re-
ports, an endeavOr will be made to
make the state historian an appointee
Of the governor and bring his depart
ment directly under the jurisdiction
Of the state. Efforts to trace the
source of the stories fail to lead to
any particular head, but the persist
ency of the talk Is worth more than
passing notice,
The objections to the present
scheme seem to be that the state il
legislating appropriations for the main
tenance of department that in reality
Is private institution. 1t is contended
that the constitution requires the state
to have direct supervision over any
department for which appropriations
ale made-that the historical should
be no exception.
The department of history was es-
tab1ished in 1901. Chapter 1876 Of the
Session Laws define it. The secretary
of the department is chosen by the
executive committee of the State His
torical Society. The present score :ary.
Mr.. Doane Robinson, of Pierre, has
held that position since the Inception
of the society and il is under his
direct supervision that all the work
of the department has been accomp-
lished.
The department today conducts five
divisions of work: Historical Society,
State Library. State Census, Vital
Statistics and Legislative Reference.
Between thirty-fve and forty thous-
and dollars have been appropriated for
maintenance since the department was
created, this covering salaries and ex-
penses-except printing bills which
have been paid out of the state fund,
provided for that PURPOSE. Follow
ing are the appropriations for the de-
partment from the time it was Gated.

medical aid can be given before the
fatal disease advances to stage
where it Is bevond the power OF
modern medicine.
The CITY was thrown into frenzy
for an hour today when the infuriat-
ed dog was on his rampage. and It
was not only until the officers and
several citizens. armed with guns.
ran the dangerous beast to earth and
shot him that the people relaxed
from the strain under which they
had been laboring.
However. before the dog was kill
ed. it had bitten several others. and
as a result all dogs known to have
heen infected have been ordered shot
and the mavor has issued an order
that all dogs in the CITY be muzzled
for an indefinite period. All dogs
which are not so treated will be shot
at sight by the officers Of the city.
