Senator Cummins Predicts Big Flow

Chicago. Dec. 10.-The chief con-
Germ of the United States must be TO
enact legislation hat will promote
industrial prosperity and insure the
constant employment of all, accord
ing to- Albert b. Cummins, United
States senator from Iowa, who spoke
tonight at a banquet here.
The flow of immigration hat he
expects to follow the close of the war
will present a problem TO the be con-
sidered, along with the necessity OF
insuring every American a job, he
said. Too great an influx of aliens
might increase the problem of the
unemployed.
These millions, head workers and
hand workers, must be employed reg
ularly and continuously in gainful
occupations" he said. ITO achieve
this, capital. without which general
employment is impossible. must be

CHARITY AT HOME
Aberdeen Newspaper Man starts
Something"

Aberdeen, Dec. 10.-An Aberdeen
newspaper man started something"
the other day. just like Irwin Cobb
did when he interviewed Lord Kitch-
ener. In the course of an article up
on the subject of charity beginning
at home, inspired by a request for
contributions for funds to buy tesla
ments to send to soldiers in the Euro
pean war, he expressed the opinion
that charity should begin at home,
and cited an instance of an Aberdeen
family, all of whom were sick or ty-
phoid and had naught but raw pump
kin in the house to eat. Inside OF
twenty-four hours, five organizations
and a lot OF individuals had applied
to the paper for the name of the fam
lily, that they might supply 1T with
necessities and comforts. This Incl
dent has led to a movement for an
organization of an Associated Chart
ties, that the charitably disposed peo-
pie may care for those needing as
sistance without needless duplica-
lions.

RIGHTS
Andrew Nicholson Receivers Property
After Having Been Insane.

Gettysburg, Dec. 10.-The decision
OF Judge Bottum, in the case of An
drew Richelson VS.. II. l.. Marietta, ct
al. was reversed by the supreme court
of South Dakota. This Is the most
remarkable case that has ever gone
up from this county, and involves
the title to a half section OF valuable
land situated northwest of this city.
Mr.. Richelson was one OF the early
settlers of Potter county and became
the owner of the land. In 1898 he
went to Chicago on business, and
while there was taken sick with a
disease that affected his mind. and
by order of the probate court OF
Cook county, Illinois, was committed
to the Elgin asylum. He was kept
there continuously for thirteen years.
In 1911, Richelson recovered and re-
turned to this county, where he now
resides.
Frank Riley was appointed guard
ian by the county court of Potter
county soon after Richelson vas con
fined to the Elgin asylum and. by or
der of the court, sold all the personal
property and real estate belonging &c
his ward to Mrs. James Boyle. Later
Mrs. Boyle conveyed the land TO w
Small, who sold IL, by quit claim deco
to James Boyle. II. l.. Marietta pur-
chased the land OF Mr.. Boyle and re
ceived a warranty deed.
On returning to this county In
1911, Richelson employed s. M. How
ard as his lawyer and suit was i'm.
mediately started for the recovery o.
the property. The case for the re
covery of the real estate was tried by
Judge Bottum and was decided IL
favor of Marietta, but the supreme
court reverses this finding and holds
that Rlchelson Is entitled TO recover
his property.

They Fail to Do Anything Other Than
Collect Their Fees.

Pierre, Dec. 10.-Aside from duly
and solemnly collecting their fees of
10 cents a mile. the republican and
democratic committeeman who met
here, eighty in number. transacted
no other official business.
They did discuss the question OF
formally denouncing the Richards
primary law, which is responsible for
this freak session. but finally con-
cluded to refrain from such action,
merely because 1t seemed to be for
eign to the specified business of the
session. In the discussions IL de-
veloped that every committeeman
present, in both parties, favored the
summary repeal of the Richards law.
According to the best legal opin-
ions at hand, the patronage provi-
sions Of the Richards law seek to
override the constitutions of the
United States and of the state OF
South Dakota. The federal constitu-
ton provides the method of making
appointments to government posi-
tions and the state constitution pro-
vides the method OF making state
appointments. but the Richards pri-
mary law assumes to ignore these
minor" regulations and sets up a
system of its own, in which the party
committeeman are given the power
and duty OF scheduling appointive Of
ficials, both state and federal.
The democrats have only one fed.
eral office at their disposal in South
Dakota-the Rapid City land office
job. There were eleven applications
on Ale for this place, but the com
mittee declined to make any recon-
mendation p~referring to leave the
solution to the regular patronage dis.
pensers.
In the republican committee meet
ing a resolution was adopted. setting
forth the claim that the patronage
provisions of the Richards law are
illegal and in conflict with the con
stitution. To cover all state appoint
i've positions several hundred appli-
cations would be required, whereas
only thirteen applications had been
filed. and these merely for general
protection in some Of the important
positions.
Action was unanimous, in both
committee sessions. against making
any recommendations.
r. o. Richards. author OF the pri-
mary law, claims that the state COM
