Public Library

AS announced last week, the Public
Library and reading room is now
ready for use in the room in the Ma
sonic Temple. lately occupied by
Glenn Waters.
Bv the first of January we expect
10 have borrowers cards and other
supplies necessary for carving on
the library in a business like wav.
All persons having library books
are earnestly requested to return the
same bv January LIST, and no fines
will be exacted for books out over
time, if returned before that date.
The fund at the disposal of the
library board for this first wear is so
very small that if we are to keep up
a supply of new books we must raise
a bookfund in some wav.
Most public Libraries put the new
fiction on what thew call a paw shelf
and charge Sets per week rent fer
each copy; but so manv people have
paid YEARLY subscriptions to C. c.
Campbell that will not run out for
months, hat the fairest wav seems
to be to ask each one to paw at the
same rate for such part of the wear
as shall make all subscriptions expire
at the same date.
Don't forget to return books To
The Library.
Il list Of new books is 10 be on
hand for use early in the year.

Verdict of Guilty in HYDE Case

Verdict of Guilty in HYDE Case
The Federal court at Sioux Falls
found Chas. l.. Hyde. of Pierre.
guilty of using the mails for fraudu-
lent purposes-that is, in adverting
city lots in Pierre, and boosting for
them by letter. he is SAID to have
made representations which are
considered fraudulent by a very
Interpretation of the postal
laws. This is the surface view, and
Mr. Hyde will probably suffer a fine
for his intense enthusiasm for his
home town. Now under the sur
face there is a real reason for this
trial. Mr. Hyde is using his energy
and money to build up a new bust
ness district on the hill in the capt..
al city. Some of the property own
ers in the old portion of the city
have been angered thereat, and are
after Mr. Hyde's scalp. regardless of
the fact that he has done so much
for Pierre. Not a verv worthy or
noble spirit-nor one that builds
cities. OF course MIR HYDE had no
intention of using the mails fraudu-
lently. He simply believes in a
great future for his citv. and saws
so in his advertising. He viii ap-
peal the case.
