WHAT STATES HAVE DONE
TO MAKE BETTER MATING

Pierre, s. d., March Former Gov
Charles n. Herried, of Aberdeen, and
other citizens of that city are in
Pierre today to appear before COM
mittees in behalf of two bills. The
first bill provides for the vasectomy of
habitual criminals idiots, imbeciles,
feeble minded. insane, epileptics. etc.
The second makes it encumbent on
persons securing marriage licenses to
first obtain a certificate based upon a
physicians examination, and prohib-
iting marriage within this state of per-
sons unfit by reason of disease or
physical or mental defects.
1t is found that "a states in the union
have provisions of this kind for in
sanity. lunacy and want OF under
standing or will to consent. Eight
states have laws regarding imbeciles
and feeble minded, while Is have
statutes prohibiting the idiotic from
marrying. and nine prohibit the mar
riage of epileptics. Four states pro-
hibit the marriage of those incapable
of consent; and two make drunken
ness bar to marriage, while four
make contagious diseases a prohibiting
cause. One state, Indiana, prohibits
the INDECENT from marrying.
The bills have been introduced into

which all but wrecked their dwelling.
The homestead is situated on the
south slope of Mount Cuddy. Swain
and his wife took up their residence
on the homestead last November, and
South Dakota friends the couple had
experienced the hardships of the hard
est winter. ever known in Idaho.
Their nearest neighbors are two and
one half miles away. The hay supply
for SWANS stock was stacked about
a mile from his home, and he had de-
pended upon getting it assneeded. But
one snow storm followed another until
the roads We're completely blocked.
Then, to cap the climax. a blizzard
swept over the. region, making them
prisoners in their home.
At about 3 o'clock one afternoon,
while Swain and his wife We're sitting
near the stove. the door and windows
on the north side of the house burst
open and tons of snow swept into the
and forcing the man, who is So years
of age, and his frightened wife to the
south side of the house. On investiga-
ton it was found that the slide had
come from about three quarters of a
mile up the slope. The spring upon
which they depended for water was
situated near the house. and this was
covered to a depth of about eight feet
with snow, broken trees and brush.
The slide carried with it a dense
growth of poplar and willows from
small brush up to trees eight inches
in diameter. 1t swept everything
clean to a short distance from the
house before the force of it was suf-
fciently broken to prevent the house
and barn being swept away. The old
folks We're prisoners until the follow
ing day, when other homesteaders of
the region. alarmed for their safety
appeared on the scene and dug them
out. They We're the first persons the.
old homesteader and his wife had seen
for over five weeks. When Swain
wrote another snowslide was threat
ened and it was feared his house would
be entirely demolished

FoNpNEss OF COYOTES
FOR THANKSGIVING BIRD

Huron. s. D., March ga number of
the farmers and some people residing
in town have been engaged for sew
eral days past in series of wolf hunts
through the country southeast of the
city. The activities have centered
about the ]. w. Campbell ranch main
ly. They have been taken up, not as
sport. but because the small wolves
and coyotes have become such pest
that the farmers are desperate. Chick
ems. turkeys and even shoats have been
ruthlessly snatched from the farm

that farmers could not stand the loss
The night marauders seem to have
particularly highly cultivated tastes for
the Thanksgiving fowl, taking these
first every time.
Paul Wollman head of a Huttrische

charge of the hunt and is using four
large Russian wolf hounds belonging
to the brotherhood. The snow inter-

DAYS OF FREE RANGE
BELONG TO THE PAST

. Pierre. S. D.. Mch. s.-The days of
free range in South Dakota. even under
q county option plan, apparently are Of
duced in the house an attempt was made
to restore the option system, but it was
voted down. This bill called forth 8
large amount of oratory, in which the
poor homesteaders'' were held up as
possible beneflciaries by both sides Of
the controversy The majority senti-
ment, however, seemed to settle on the
proposition that the honesteaders are
not the ones who are tclamoring for the
range privilege.
One member gave as a reason for
supporting the bill that he wanted the
lege OF pasturing the large amount OF
unoccupied Indian land. but l1esappar-3
entity lost sight of the fact that the
government regulations control this
situation and impose specific penalty
for allowing stock, to range on Indian
lands.
