WATERFOWL WOMAN
Charged With Attempting t.
Pass Fraudulent Checks.

Watertown, July Enlarged with
forgery. Mrs. Lillian SHINING OF
this city is being held for trial unit
Monday, when her husband, who is
a carpenter working in the country.
can be present.
About a month ago a check for SIS
on W. Ross was presented TO the
Citizens National bank for payment,
made out to B. Johnson, alleged to
be an assumed name. The check
was made out on the wrong bank,
however, as Mr.. Ross had his account
in another bank. The check was re-
fused and the matter brought to the
attention of States Attorney A. L,
Sherin. For a time no clue as to
the identity OF the forger was found,
when a few days ago another check
was presented to the same bank, it
is alleged, on the Slower Construction
company for $S so. The check was
payable to B. Johneon again, but what
caused suspicion this time was the fact
that it was signed Slower & Co., when
the checks of that firm are nearly al
ways signed Slower Construction Com
pany.
A warrant was issued for the arrest
of Lillian SHINING and she was
brought before Judge Meyers for trial.
which vas postponed until Monday.

FIRE At CARTHAGE
Hotel and Meat Market Burn
Other Property En-
daneered

Carthage, July II. "A fire that broke
{ ut Tuesday morning about A o'clock
in a meat market here completely de-
stroyed that building, a restaurant
and the Commercial hotel, a two-story
hotel property. The loss will run
about $15. 900 with about 81, 900 in
urance.
Much of the hotel property was car
ried out into the streets. The plant
and building of the Carthage News was
in great danger of destruction and
nearly everything except the presses
were carried out into the street as q
~precaution. But the good work of the
citizens, who quickly formed them
selves into a fire brigade, confined
the fire to the buildings above named.
This is a good hotel town and it is
hoped by the citizens that Landlord
Stevens will see that Carthage will
have another hotel very soon.

AUTO LICENSE
Directors Contend that There
Was No State Demand
for Ii

Sioux Falls, July II. Since collec-
tions have commenced on the South
DAKOTA automobile tax law. as passed
by the last legislature, the DIRECTORS to
the measur are becoming very voci-
ferrous in their attitudes. IL is de
clared. with much emphasis, that the
suggestion for the auto tax law, or for
the state highway commission, did not
come from any very considerable num-
Der of the residents of South Dakots.
During the early days of the effort
to secure the establishment of the state
highway commission. few members of
the Legislature took the proposition
very seriously ard not two members
of the assembly expected to see the
proposed law enacted. Ben M. Wood,
who has been named AS a member of
the highway commission, WAS the
one persistent lobbyist for the meas
ure.
1t is claimed that an analysis of
the situation shows that the special
tax imposed on automobile owners
will not make much of a showing in
road work, as most of ii will be con
sumed in salaries and expense allow
ances to the members of the commits
sion, extra compensation and clerk hire
to the secretary of state and the perpet-
uation of a nice little graft to a certain
company engaged in the manufacture
and sale of automobile tags.
Joe Kirby, a we'll known Sioux
Falls attorney makes the following
statement of protest against what he
terms the "colored man" in the auto
mobile bill:
I'VE, the automobile owners of the
state, are forced to contribute several
thousand dollars each year to the cof-
rers of outside manufacturers of plate
numbers is a mystery. Under the
new law it is necessary for each auto
mobile owner to secure two new mum
bers each year, which cost the owner
about 81 each. As the total number
of machines is in the n~eighborhood of
2 1000 South Dakota people are making
q nice contribution to outside parties
for simply nothing"
