State Accountant.

Pierre.-Attorney General johnson
has been called upon to interpret an
other of the laws of the last session
which attempts to provide for the ex-
penses of conducting the affairs of the
state executive accountant. The law
itself provides an annual appropriation
of $4,000 out of which the accountant
is to receive a salary of $500, the
rest for expenses. 1t further provides
that the accountant may employ assist
ants to go into the affairs of the differ
ent counties, on request of the county
commissioners of such counties, and
such assistant shall receive Sc per day
for such service.
This amount is to be paid into the
state treasury by such county, and
while it was the undoubted intent Of
the legislative members that such sum
paid in should be for the payment of
the assistants for their services to the
counties, the law does not appropriate
the money SO paid for that purpose,
and it is held that the four thousand
dollars is all which is available. The
query comes up on the matter of pay
ing an assistant for services rendered
in Trip county to straighten out their
affairs following the fire of last win
ter which destroyed all their records.

in such case and authorize deficiency

Parker.--While three farmers living
southwest of this city in Norway
township were going home from Hur-
ley at about 10 o'clock at night their
wagon and horses were surrounded by

grabbed by the brides and the men

throw up their hands. Some of the
men leaped into the wagon and cifed
their victims pockets. The robbers
had their faces covered with bandages
and acted more like bunch of hoboes
than veteran robbers. They got a
gold watch, about SIS in money and

WORM is A STRANGER.
Devours Only Pigweed and Russian
Thistles.

Aberdeen.-Fariners in Brown coun-
ty are watching with interest she be-
havior of most unusual and peculiar
acting green worm which is infest1ng
certain portions of the county in great
numbers. The worm is stranger to
South Dakota, so far as old settlers
can recollect. 1t is about an inch long,
about as large around as a match, and
has one pair of legs III front, another
pair at the rear, and six pairs in the
middle of the body 1t does not pro-
gress across the ground by means or
doubling itself up and then extending
as is the habit of the ordinary worm.
but crawls quite swiftly, extended at
full length. The worm travels in COM
panies numbering thousands, one
group of the worms extending for
distance of quarter of mile in
length. At first the farmers were in
clined to think the worm was the old
fashioned army worm, but later inves-
tigation proved it to be an entirely
new species so far as this portion OF
South Dakota is concerned.
The most peculiar thing about the
worm is that it confines its feed solely
to the Russian thistle and to pigweed
1t cleans up the pigweed pretty thor
oughly, but when it tackles the this
tie it confines itself to the leaves OF
the plant, leaving the stem. The worm
has been observed by reputable farm
ers in the eastern and southern parts
of Brown county, SO long as it de-
YOURS only pigwoed and Russian this
tie it will not be molested to any great
extent.
