that county, IL they have not effect
ually put a stop to the work. The man,
M. M. Edwards, who appears TO have
been the head OF the organization, and
was classed as a regular Fagin in his
work, by a plea of guilty was given IA
months in the penitentiary. The w
Merrifield boys, o of a widow in
that part OF the county, who were used
by Edwards as helpers, have both been
sent to the reform school, and there
was sympathy for the mother until 1t
was learned from letters secured that
she was working with Edwards and
knew all about the actions of her sons.
She was called into court and also
pleaded guilty and was given a SEN
tence of eight months. Sam Craddock,
another of the crowd get sight months
for his dealings In saddles without con-
sulting the owners, and Clifford Wy
man, who has been at Sioux Falls

share in the work in that part of the
county. The record of Edwards has
been traced back to his old home 1T

MOVEMENT FOR GOOD
ROADS is BEGUN BY
HILLS LEGISLATORS
Will Ask for Macadam Road
Taking In ALI Principal Cities
In That Region.

Dead%oo6, S. D., Dee. 29.-Legisla-
tors-elect from Black Hills counties
were present at a meeting here called
by President n. L. Franklin, of the
Deadwood Business club, TO discuss
measures to come before the legislature
next month and to decide what the
Black Hills want. The good roads,
mining, anti-herd law, stockmen n
other interests were well represented
at the meeting.
Summarized, the demands of the
Black Hills section will be for some
equitable amendment Of h present
primary law; an amendment OF the
game laws to permit elk from the Ma
tional park In Wyoming to be brought
here under state protection; opposition
to the enforcement OF the herd law In
the Black Hills; a county option fea-
ture to all measures to be passed,
wherever applicable: amendment to
the road building laws, eliminating the
road supervisor and substituting an
expert engineer &c hare charge OF ali
road building in each county and an
adequate method for building permaz
nent roads, a modification of the
present law on mining charters which
will permit either an of the
charter when II expires or some other
practical way to keep the title of old
mining companies clear.
Good roads occupied most of the dis
cussion. 1t was argued that a system
different from that employed in the
eastern part of the state was necessary
In the Black Hills, owing to different
conditions, and 1t is probable a bill will
be introduced providing for a macadam
road through the Hills, taking in all
the principal towns both north and
south and extending a branch into
Wyoming as far as the Devil's Tower,
for the benefit of those In that section
and for tourist trips.
Bills ~embodying most OF these fea-
lures are to be prepared and It vas
the sense of the meeting that the Black
Hills legislators would stand together
for Black Hills legislation as far as
practicable.
