from again. This time it to
the notice of the public through the
arrest at Hurley Friday evening of
w. Morley of Sioux City and r. A.

tiles in an investment company. to-
wit: in the Sioux Falls Stock Yards

having complied with the law. States
Attorney c. V. Caldwell telegraphed

been reason to believe that they were
promoting a bona fde venture. AS
the company was not pushing sales in
this county there was no grounds for
action by the states attorney upon
the information received from Pierre.
