PASSES AFTER HARD BATTLE
Especial Correspondence.)

Pierre, March 3.-The second great
Dakota is creating a tremendous sen
sation. The first was the defalcatlon
of w. w. Taylor, state treasurer. IN
1908, for the sum of $367 900. the
new one is petty larceny in COMPARE
son and involves the commissioners OF
school and public lands. Fred +.
Brinker of Madison, who is charged
with ahstracting $3.50 from the state
treasury through false vouchers.
Brinker practically admits the charge.
for he has restored the amount to the
treasury and resigned his office. For
months ugly rumors have been atloat
| pertaining TO Rrinker's conduct of the
very important land Office and at the
opening OF the session a special inVeS-
tigation of the Office was discussed,
but it was concluded best to leaye:the
matter to the investigation committee
provided to look into the conduct OF
all the departments. This COMMITTEES
was late in getting organized and
! turned almost its first attention TO the
land commissioner and the graft was
Immediately apparent. Drinkers plan
of OperatiOn had been to employ a
young man to drive an automobile
used in the field work of the depart
ment at $40 per month. which he paid
with his personal check. He passed
vouchers at the rate of $40 per month.
He has been arrested and is under
bonds to appear at the May term OF
the hughes county court. Other irrcS-
ularities are suspected in the nature
of a rakeosf in timber deals. but as
yet nothing hut suspicious have been
developed. The administration pro-
poses to prosecute the case to the
limit.
One OF the big fights of the session
was concluded when the 1000 to ]
saloon bill passed the house amended
to 600 to l and without the emergency
clause. 1t will probably go through
the senate in the same form and it i:
likely to be referendumed to delay it:
operation for a couple of years. Thi!
will be the chief temperance legisla
ton of the session, though it is likel,
that Quickstad's bill prohibiting thu
transportation of intoXicants into DIR,
towns will likewise pass.
