Pierre. Feb. 27.-Unless all the in
dications of the morning fail, State
Land Commissioner Brinker will have
filed his resignation before night and
will be under arrest on the charge of
having obtained money from the state
by false pretenses.
Attorney General johnson has placed
the warrant for the arrest of Brinker in
the hands of Sheriff Quinn, who will
make the arrest this afternoon unless
all plans go awry.
Commissioner Brinker has employed
the law firm of Sutherland & Payne in
his defense, for the hearings which
will follow the arrest.
The evidence presented SO far all
relates to the vouchers in the auto
hire fund, and while the sun involved
is only a few hundred dollars, the
charge is just as serious as if it were
thousands.
Commissioner Brinker has nothing
to say today, farther than that the
rumor that he will resign is correct,
and that 1t might be today and might
not be for several days, but that action
would, so far as he knew at the pres
ent. be his course.
The probabilities growing out of the
Brinker case will more than likely
mean that the legislature will be asked
for al appropriation to continue the
work of the investigating committee
after the session. to thoroughly check
every department of the state.
A later dispatch from Pierre says:
Affairs have beer breaking thick
and fast today in the affairs of f. f.
Brinker, the accused commissioner of
the state land department. A warrant
of arrest was served on Brinker today
by the sheriff of Hughes county and
the official his intention OF
pleading guilty and waving a prelim.
mary hearing. The charge listed is
that of obtaining money under false
p~retense.
In addition to throwing himself on
the mercy of the prosecuting officials
as to the criminal aspect OF the case,
Biinker has practically made up his
mind to file his resignation as commits
%sioner, and was at work late this
afternoon in preparation of a formal
resignation TO the governor.
AS the Anderson investigating COM
mittee had been holding its meetings
in secret, with all parties pledged not
to divulge any of the proceedings,
Brinker did not know until today how
definite the showing was against him.
AS late as yesterday afternoon be gave
out a statement declaring he was in
nocent of any irregular conduct.

this years institute. and from the
intense interest manifested by the
audiences, il was demonstrated be-
.yond a doubt that those having the
institute in charge, had made no mis-
take in the selection Of their instruo-
tor.
The subject Of Lr. Fess' afternoon
lecture, Hamilton, the Representa-
tive of Power" was hlil OF interest.
Hamilton's early life was cited, to-
gether with his ambitions to become
something more than a country store
keeper or clerk, and at the age Of II
he displayed knowledge super
ior TO many boys with much better
ad antages.
According 10 Oliver. Hamilton was
considered the greatest constructive
genius of his age, and was recognized
by European as well as other powers
as man Of wonderful ability and
power in bringing about results.
"Gray's Elegy," was the subject of
the closing address OF the afternoon
by Dr. Hoban.
