Potatoes Take Drop

Sioux Falls Press: That was
the record on Wednesday at least.
1t is not long ago, Just a while
before the rains set in that pota-
toes, just the old common sort,
were SO precious that they were
consumed sparingly after they had
been procured with a cash outlay
of 80 cents per peck or at the rate
of something like three sixty per
bushel. 1t was then that a lot of
people were saying that crops are
a total loss; no oats, no wheat, no
corn, no potatoes. But the rains
came, conditions changed. Prices
on potatoes changed and the man
who drove down here from Dell
Rapids Wednesday with 40 bu-
shells of fine potatoes. of the Early
Ohio variety, called at the Press
Office and said no one wanted po-
tatoes. II have offered them at
so cents per bushel and | have not
sold a potato" he said.

Blind Justice

His heart filed with bitterness
toward this LAND of the free"
which for him was a country of
suffering and Imprisonment, An
drew 10th, who spent twenty
years behind the bars of Penn
sylvania prison for a murder he
had not committed, sailed from
New York Tuesday for his native
home in Austria, never to return
to these shores.
10th had been in this country
only a short time, and was work
ing hard to support his wife and
children and in the hope of ac-
quiring a home and competence,
when he was arrested on the charge
of killing a fellow workman. He
was only an Ignorant foreigner"
unable to speak English, and as
circumstantial evidence pointed to
guilt, he was right speedily con-
victed and whisked away to pri-
Son. There was no laws delay"
in Toth's case. Behind the grim
walls of the penitentiary he was
soon forgotten, and might have
died there had not another, after
twenty years, confessed to the
crime of which 10th was wholly
innocent. Toth's sons, grown to
manhood, had for years spent all
their earnings in attempts to prove
their fathers innocence. Toth's
wife, heartbroken and hopeless,
despairing at last of justice in this
strange land where poor men are
rushed off to prison on fimsy sus-
picions, returned to Austria to
end her years. In the little town
of Cengyel Falu she is anxiously
awaiting the old, broken man, with
the prison palIor on his face, who
sailed Tuesday to join her.
