WANT BLUE SKY" LAW
Bankers Of the State Want to
Have Kansas Law Enacted for
South Dakota

Pierre, Jan. 3l.--A general
movement is under way among
the bankers of the state to
frame and present to the next
legislative session, law similar
to the Kansas "Blue Sky" enact
ment, which is said to be doing
good work in that state. The pro
posed law will require corpora
tiOns attempting to do business
in this state to show to the state
bank examiner that their corpo-
ratiOns have foundation of
fact, and that there is a chance
Of the investor getting a return
on his investment Agents Of
any stock corporation will be re
quired to submit their scheme to
the state bank department before
they will be allowed to solicit bu-
siness, and unless they can con-
vince the head of that depart
ment that their scheme has eno-
ugh merit in it to promise actual
cash returns from the investment
they will be refused permission
to do any soliciting, with a peni-
tertiary penalty back of their at
tempting to do business without
consent Of the department.
This law in it's actual working
in Kansas stopped hundreds Of
solicitors who were selling stock
in different schemes, as only
few who had been working along
that line dared to submit their
applications for authority to do
business. Out Of the few who ap-
piled most of them were refused
permission to do business, and it
! is claimed that this action has
done more to stop wildcat specu-
lation in Kansas than any other
, one thing which has ever been
done. A similar law Is being ask
ed for Nebraska, and the move
will be pushed here by the bank
ers of the state at the next legia-
lative session.

Blunt and Mitchell either to
build a railroad or to aid the
Chicago & North Western to
build.
For twenty five years farmers
south of Blunt have been with
out railroad facilities. At q re-
cent meeting of farmers near
Grow Lake, south of Blunt, j.
B. Ross and F. l. Hall met the
owners Of the land adjoining the
right of way of the proposed rail
way. The plan advanced was to
pay 500 for each quarter section
through which the new railway
would run, and the farmers at
once subscribed literally.
j. B. Ross, the chief promoter
says that when the money sub
scribed equals $500 a mile, con-
struction companies will agree
to build the railway. 1t is ex-
pected that by spring the full
amount will be on hand.

dress of all such people and keep
them informed as to the condi-
tions in regard to crop prospects,
and other advancement of the
country. BY the showings made,
many of these people will get
back to their farms, as the con-
ditions now are for an entirely
different situation the coming
spring than that of last spring.
There is enough moisture to
assure the growing of vegetation,
and the prairie instead of being
brown for the early part Of the
summer will start a green growth
with the beginning of warm
weather, as the ground was
thoroughly soaked by fall rains
and is now covered with heavy
coat of snow to help soak the
whole country with the coming of
warm weather. Many of these
who left last year announced
their intention of returning as 500
as conditions showed a change,
and it is now one Of the efforts
of the department to show them
that the change has come.

LINCoLN's BIRTHDAY PRO.
CLAHGATION

Pierre, Jan. Ex-Governor Ves-
sey has issued the following Lin
coin day proclamation:
I'm honor and commemoration
of the great Lincoln, our state
legislature has set aside the
twelfth day Of February in each
year as legal holiday, and at
this time l desire to recommend a
general observance by South Da-
kota's entire citizenship of the
anniversary now near at hand.
"The record of Abraham Lin
coin 8 life is so incorporated into
and so closely allied to the his
tory of our country that with
it all Americans are well ac-
quainted; with his early boyhood
his youth, his maturity; and by
America and all the civilized
world he is revered as a hero,
as martyr, and as a man.
Although he was born in
poverty and his earlier years
were passed in obscurity and an
environment of toll and difficulty
the innate forces and qualities of
his mind were such as to fit him,
and well fit him, for the position
he later assumed-that of the ma
ton s deliverer. Patient and wise
with mighty brain and warm
heart, he piloted us through the
darkest of national perils, serv-
ing with unquestioned loyalty
and devotion the right for which
he always sought.
"The life of Abraham Lin
coin was the exemplification of
real integrity, Of honest nobility
and is an inspiration to all true
Americans.

Dallas, Jan. 31.-It is under
stood that at the regular April
session of the board of county
commissioners in this county a
resolution will be adopted by that
body again submitting the questio'
of the permanent location of the
county seat of Gregory county.
This duty is mandatory upon the
board, as Fairfax, the present
county seat, located in the ex-
treme east end of the county, is
only a temporary location, and in
order to become a permanent seat
It must receive a majority Of all
votes cast at the next general
election. Four years ago Herrick,
Burke and Gregory contested for
the honor against Fairfax, neith-
er of which towns received .
majority, and in consequence
Fairfax remained the temporary
location. It is quite likely that
Herrick, Burke and Gregory will
again make q try Tor the honor
with the strong probability that
the seat will remain unchanged.

each and every government sub
division Of land upon which said
grain was contracted to be sown
and upon the crop of grain rails
ed from said seed by the person
receiving seed grain to the
amount Of the sum then due to the
county upon said contract, as
against all creditors, purchasers
or mortgages, whether in good
faith or otherwise, and the filing
of said contract shall be held and
considered to be full and suffici-
ent notice to all parties of the
existence and extent of said lien,
which shall continue in force un-

Each and every person who
has received seed grain under
the provisions of this act, shall,
as soon as his crops are harvest
ed and threshed, market a suf-
ficient amount of grain to pay
the amount then due on his
contract and pay the same over
to the treasurer of his county"
The attorney general for
South Dakota has rendered an
opinion concerning the law of
which the above is a part, and
his ruling in certain respect is
Of moment:
"It is my opinion that any re-
sident who makes a proper show
ing or application is entitled to
the benefits of the act whether
such applicant is the owner of
real estate within the county in
which the application is made or
not. Section 6 of this chapter is
as follows:
"The funds arising from the
sale of said bonds or warrants
shall be applied exclusively by
said board for the purpose of seer
grain for residents of the county
who are poor and unable to pro-
cure the same, etc.
Section Z provides for the ap-
plicati0n of such resident and in
dicates plainly that the appli-
cant is entitled to the benefits of
this act whether he owns real
estate upon which the grain will
be sown, or not.

CENSOR RESIGNS
Director of Morals at Sioux
Falls Tires Quickly Of the
Task Imposed

Sioux Falls, S. D., Jan.31.-
Sioux Falls is again without q
public censor. R. w. Dickinson,
who on Tuesday, January 16, was
appointed public censor by Police
Commissioner Fitz Gibbons, step
ped into the office of the COM
missioner and announced that he
was ready to lay down the bur-
dens of the office. Mr.. Dicken-
son announced that he found the
burdens Of the position much
more arduous than he had antici-
pated. He also found that his
acts and ideas were misunder-
stood and for that reason he
wanted to be relieved Of the
duties Of the office.
Mr.. Dickenson was in office for
a period of ten days during which
time he issued number of ord
ers and was unquestionably con-
scientious in his efforts to bring
about certain reforms.
He found that to give the posi-
ton the attention it should have
would practically take up ell Of
his time.
Dickenson cut wide swath dui
ing his incumbency of the office.
Every day the papers printed fro
one to three proclamations by hin
regulating the morals of the COM
munity. He prohibited exhibi-
bitions of moving pictures show
ing deaths or "gun fights, as
well as many other exhibitions,
and the limits prescribed by him
excluded wild west shows and
similar attractions at the picture
houses. He also prescribed the
rules to guide dance hall prop
rietors, and made many other
regulations that kept the amuse-
ment purveyors of Sioux Falls
in state Of great anxiety. (.

Elmer Hawks, who for a num-

Hawks exempts the homestead
and personal property to the ex-
tent Of $3.50. In his assignment
he places his assets at $500 and
his liabilities at $500; making
him more than solvent if the
could be disposed of at
a reasonable figure. The assign
