DEVICE TO clRCUMVENT
TIE TELEPHONE SWOOp

Aberdeen, S. D.. July POI. E.
Granger, court reporter for the Fifth
judicial circuit. has just been granted a
patent OF an automatic device for rural
telephone lines which is expected to
prove q great improvement in the OPP
Grafton of rural lines and party" lines
generally. The device is such that sub
scribers on q party line cannot cut
in" While two other subscribers are
talking. without the others being able
to locate the person cutting in" Inc
the evesdropping so often complained
of on rural lines is prohibited. Another
advantage of the device is thai it en-
ables a telephone company to have rs
many as 30 subscribers on one rural
line, operating, to a certain extent, the
same as a central station. The inven-
ton is expected to greatly reduce the
cost of operating rural telephone lines.
A company for the manufacture and
sale of the device has been organized,
with Mr.. Granger, J. L. w. Nietlow, j..
T. Zietlow and S. II. Collins as incor-
p~oratorS.

SALOON KEEPER SUES
COUNTY COMMISSIONERS

Aberdeen. S. D., July 2S.-Judge
Frank McNulty, of the Fifth judicial
circuit, is hearing an interesting liquor
case at Milbank. The case originated
in Roberts county, and Ferd ]. Maly, q
saIoonkeeper at Wilmot, is suing the
county commissioners of Roberts coun-
ty in an effort 10 secure a court order
completing them to approve his bond.
II is alleged Maly has had the repu-
tation Of conducting the most orderly
saloon in northeastern South Dakota,
but that a majority Of the commits
sioners are strongly opposed to sa-
looms, and when Maly presented his
bond at the beginning of the fiscal
yea the commissioners refused TO APP
prove it. thereby depriying Maly of the
right to conduct a saloon. On July 10
Maly secured an alternative write OF
mandanus from Judge McNuIty, re-
curing the commissioners TO appear at
Milbank and show cause why they
should not approve Maly's bond.
Maly contends that as the bond was
sufficient to meet the requirements of
the law. and there is no flaw in his
record as q law abiding saloonkeeper,
the commissioners are bound to APP
prove the bond. The commissioners
contend the matter rests with them
entirely, and they are not bound by law
to approve the bond or to give any
eason for their action.

Pierre, S. D., July 23.-Immigration
Commissioner Deets is receiving re-
peated calls from the east part of the
state for harvest help; the heavy crop
requiring more men than in a normal
year. He is arranging so that all towns
having a surplus of men wire him the
number, SO that he can direct them
where to go for work. The railway
companies are beginning to have diff
ficulty in keeping their section men,
they paying s1,75 per day, while the
laborer can secure much higher wages
in the adjacent fields.
The demand for help in the harvest
is not confined to any particular sec
ton. 1t comes from all over the state
and the need is so pressing that reports
from various places say that the wom-
en- and girls of farmers families are
taking a hand. In some places bust
ness and professional men are working
in the fields to help out.
There is also a reported shortage of
binding Irvine as the demand draws on
the stocks on hand.

Wagner, S. D.. July 2O.-Never in the
history of Charles Mix county has there
beer a better show for a bounteous
crop than this year. Small grain is
simply looking splendid and harvest of
winter wheat and barley has already

wheat and oats will be in full blast next
week and probably be generally COM
pleted by the latter part of the week.
Conservative estimates are thai wheat
viii average between Is and 20 bushels
per acre and barley and oats in pro-
portion. Corn was never better. A
great deal of flax has been planted on
breaking on Indian lands and his is
also looking fine.
While the crop of small grain in the
remote western part of the county was
somewhat injured by dry weather, yet
it will be a fair crop II corn through
out the county is looking splendid. The
recent bounteous rains have assured a
splendid crop.

platform, favored the move and was
backed in the proposition by Commits
sioners Redfield and Jay. Mayor Jack
son and Commissioner Brennan, repre-
senting the "old timer element, OPP
posed taxing the undivided profits.
This decision of the board will bring
