After two years OF "dryness," Cen
t~erville has saloons. The city council
had a hearing FOR applicants for per-
mits. and licenses to run saloons were
granted TO Harry Hewet, Frank Grit
fin and David c. Lane. When saloons
were voted out of Centeryille two
years ago, the city council took oc-
casion to legislate against saloons
ever being operated upon Broadway,
the business thoroughfare of the city.
There are no vacant buildings on the
side streets, and it became necessary
10 erect buildings as soon as the IL
censes were granted. This is being
done. The Hamm Brewing company
owns a building on Broadway, and is
arranging to nov it to a side street.
10 Conderlario, who has just been
sentenced by Judge Elliott, of the
United States court, to a term of one
and one-half years in the federal peni-
tertiary at Leavenworth, Kan, for
horse stealing committed on an In
dian reservation, has discovered that
Uncle Sam has a long memory. The
crime was committed seven years ago,
and soon after an Indictment "a re-
turned against him Conderlario fed
from the country. He kept under
cover until a few days ago, when he
returned tc his old haunts in the west
ern part of South Dakota, and was
promptly arrested by a deputy United
States marshal and brought to Sioux
Falls. He entered a plea of guilty.
That the Indians Of the state are
freely availing themselves of all the
advantages and blessings OF civiiiza-
ton is shown by the fact that three
divorces were granted Indians at the
recent term of court in Lyman county.
OF a club OF fifteen young women
organized at Hurley a few years ago,
as an 'anti-marriage club" all are
married but one, and at a recent re-
union of the members, her engage
meut was announced. The success of
the scheme will doubtless lead to the
immediate organization of a large
number of similar societies.
At Mitchell last week an automobile
callided with George Mohn, who was
turning a corner on his bicycle at
good speed, as was the car. Mr..
Mohn had presence of mind and agil-
ity enough to grab the top of the
engine hood, and swing himself across
it, riding along on it until the machine
was stopped. He undoubtedly saved
his life by so doing.

Effective legislation looking to the pre-

the public; that those who profit by control
of business affairs shall justify that profit
