to port and weigh the bales. II is a
fact that many bales OF cotton were
found to consist mostly of copper, on
the contraband list
Irreconcilable as submarine Claim.
II is evident here that the United
States has controversy with Great
Britain almost as iireconcilable with
the present belligerents' ideas OF war
as the demand that submarines shall
not attack merchant vessels of bel
llgercnt nationality without notice.
The United states, If II proves
strong enough TO put these two ideas
through, will simply have brought
the nations back to international law
as they made II themselves before
this conflict broke out. The distance
both England and Germany have
travelled from their humane base Is
evidenced by the fact that they see
in these moderate and decent sugs
gestions Of the American government
a fatal blow at their present methods
of warfare, and possibly the basis Of
break with the United States.
VIII Ask Assurances.
In the next note TO Great Britain.
the president undoubtedly will rein
force these suggestions ana ask for
assurances Just as he has from Ger
many. He will add the American oh
jectlons TO the British blockade. He
will, of course. acknowledge the hui
manity Of the British proceedings.
the wide discretion given British
commanders and British prize courts
and the general disposition of the
Britons TO settle for goods seized by
them, but he will not fail TO advert
to the fact that much of the legal
proceedings has been so dilatory that
1t amounted to total stoppage Of
trade.
TO Recall Unanswered Note.
II is not ineonceivable that the
president will recall to the attention
OF the British government the Amer
lean note of March so. which the
British government has never found
time to answer In that note our
government went carefully over its
objections to the British food block
ade against Germany In its orders
mcconnell and concluded with this re-
iteration OF its note OF oct. %, soon
after the war began:
This government will insist that
the rights and duties OF the United
States and its citizens in the present
war be defined by the existing rules
of International law and the treaties
of the United states, irrespective OF
the provisions of the declaration Of
London, and that this government re-
serves TO itself the right to enter
protest or demand in each case in
which those rights and duties, SO de-
fined, are violated or their free ex-
ercise interfered with by the author
tiles OF the British government"
Language is Direct Challenge.
This language Is direct chal-
lenge 10 the favorite procedure Of
the British, the Juggling OF ships into
port for prolonged search, the ap
prehension on mere suspicion of ships
bound for neutral ports, and the
changing from time to time of the
eontraband list by orders-in council
Nothing remains TO be done that
has not been done to Germany except
TO ask for assurances that Great Brit
ain will respect our rights according
10 international law and her own
previous practice.

NORTHWESTERN CONDUCTOR
HAS MIRACULOUS ESCAP

Redfield, S. D.. Feb. 15.-One of the
most miraculous escapes from death in
a railroad accident in South Dakota
occurred this evening at Redield.
when the Northwestern passenger from
Pierre pulled int the station.
AS the train neared the depot Mar
tin Redmond, conductor, was standing
on the steps of one of the coaches
ready to alight. The steps were slip
perry with ice aGd Iii fell to the plat
form. The momentum of his fall
threw him under the moving train lust
after the first set of trucks had
passed.
Grabbing the rods under the coach,
Redmond hung on. sliding on the rails
for a distance of 25 feet, when he lost
his hold and fell between the rails.
When the ear set Of trucks came
along, however, he grabbed hold of
them and hung on for lear life, slid
Ing on the ground between the rails for
a distance of another 100 feet before
the train finally came to a stop. His
w son, Max Redmond, a student at
Redfeld college, rescued him from his
perilous position.
His first words after regaining his
feet We're: We'll. I hung to her all
right" He was only slightly bruised.

COUNTY BRIDGE BILL
INTRODUCED; HACKERS
TO WATCH LOBBYISTS
Measure Provides For Separate
Contracts; Giving Presents
Is Made Felony.

Pierre. S. D., Feb. 15.-The county
bridge bill has been introduced in both
houses. In the house it is fathered by
Representative Berdahl n in the SEN
ate by Senator Pearson. A large num-
Der of senators and representative
have been working on this bill and il
has strong backing. They have been
organizing their forces carefully and
are prepared to meet any onslaught OF
county commissioners and states attor-
neys. such as rushed to the capitol TO
defeat a similar bill two years ago.
Trains, hotels and Hobbies will be
watched closely and it is planned to
give full publicity to arrivals of county
officers when the bridge bills are under
consideration. In neasly every county
OF the state the activity of the bridge
companies, their evident combinations
and collisions. and their favors to coun-
W commissioners have been a public
The people of the state are
pretty thoroughly aroused on the sub
ject and with publicity of their move
ments planned it is not believed county
OFFICIALS will care to engage in a lobby
movement such as was undertaken two
years ago.
The new bill has Deer carefully drawn
with a view to putting an end to pres
ent abuses. The most important pro
vision Is that requiring the letting of
each bridge contract separately. Com
missioners are empowered to proceed
forthwith to repair or build where there
Is immediate necessity up to a cost of
$3.50. Bids are to be opened twice a
year, In January and July, after due
notice. The state engineer is to exam
Inc all bids on request Of the commits
sloners and must supervise the CON
.struction of all bridges costing more
than $1,000. The commissioners may
advertise for material and have the
bridges constructed under their own
SUDerVlSl0n- TaWnShina md tpooc-or
ated towns nay build bridges and Gull
verts costing less than $3.50. In the case
Of patented bridges the county will pay
the royalty in all cases, SO that every
bridge firm may be on an equal basis
IN the bidding on construction of a pat
ented bridge. 1t is made a felony for
any bridge company or agent to make
presents to county commissioners for
the purpose of influencing their action.
The bill carries the clause.

Yankton, S. D.. Feb. 15.-The ogil-

four days, adjourned at noon Friday.
n 81 ministers Of the Episcopal
faith, in attendance departed for their
homes. Eight of the clergy were full
blooded Sioux Indians. all of them
prominent in their denomination,

convention was called at the request OF
Mrs. Clinton Ogilvie. of New York, a
wealthy woman interested in missions,
who, just before an operation, signed
a check that made the gathering pos
sible. The ministers met to discuss
modern problems Of the church, the
ology and many topics, and for the
most part were in ministerial session.

SENATE VOTES NEW SYSTEM
CARE OF CAPITOL GROUNDS

Pierre, S. D., Feb. 17.--By the de-
cislVe vote Of "a to 4 the senate voted to
take the custody of the capitol build
ing and grounds out of the hands of the
secretary of state and make the gov
ernor ex-officio custodian. with a dep
uty at $1,000 a year. Senator Urdahl,
author of the bill urged that the secre-
tarV or state was a minor official and
tnls responsibility involving the en-
ployment or many people and large ex-
pendltures should be put in the hands
OF an official closer to the people. The
blll was amended, on motion Of
stephens, to leave improvements in
control OF the capitol commission and
strike out the specific repeating clause.
A reference to Lieutenant Governor
Norbeck as the next governor of the
state was received with applause in the
senate. The discussion was on an ap-
preparation Of $1,000 for the bee In
spector. Browne said this was one of
the offices discussed in the campaign,
and he did not want to provide any
campaign hunde for Egan, already
announced as a candidate against
the gentleman whom all intended to
support, and who Is now presiding over
our counsels." When it was explained
that the money was appropriated out
OF the bee fund, and was in reality
paid by the bee ~raisers, objection was
withdrawn and the bill passed.

MARION LAWYER ACCUSED
OF DEFRAIJDING

Parker. S. D., Feb. 13.-Attorney H.
Van Ruschen, of Marion. was held to
the circuit court. under a bond of ST.
600, as the result of a preliminary hear
ing before Justice Apologize On a
criminal charge. The case is based up
on an alleged fraudulent transaction,
in which the complainant is Mrs. Tctta
hammers. a widow. formerly a resident
of Marion, but now Of Vermilion. Mrs.
hammers alleges that she made a loan
to a Ruschen of $1,000. taking a
mortgage on SO lots. She says there
was an agreement that he could sell
any of the lots and turn in the amount
received in payment as Endorsement on
the mortgage note. She alleges hat in
July, 1914, Van Ruschen sold three OF
the lots for $3.50 and that he gave her
a check for $3.50. presenting a release
which he told her was only a release
for the three lots, which she signed.
Later she learned that she had released
all of the lots, which then were
mortgaged to another person for $3.50.
The $50 check given her by Van
Ruschen was protested by the bank
on which it was drawn. States At
torney Oar E. Hanson asserts that the
case will be vigorously prosecuted.

CROz|ER BILL NOT
SENATE MEASURE
Action Tomorrow on MulCt Law
Is Not Based on Measure
Which Passed Senate
Last Friday.

Des Moines, Ia. Feb. ia
movement was in~augurated TO-DAY
to bring the liquor question up lu
final action in the house next MON
day, Washington's birthday, on
account Of the senate acton pelns
taken on Lincoln's birthday. II Is
probable that Representative Gro
zier will consent to the
senate bill being substituted ior
his own measure when the mulct
repeal question comes up for a
vote.
Representative Crozier stated
that he will not call up his bill to
repeal the mulct law today as
planned, but will call it up Iues-
day. Many representatives were
not in their seats today and Gro
Zier scented danger.
IT the house should call the Crozier
bill out from committee and follow this
action by Immediately proceeding to
pass the measure, the proposal stlll
would have a further gauntlet to run
in legislative proceeding.
While the Crozier bill, in the house,
Is of similar import to the Clarkson
mulct repeal bill, which passed the
senate, they are separate and distinct
measures just the same and must
be treated as such.
Under the tWo-house plan of legisla-
ton, complications frequently ensue
from the desire of each branch to have
Its own measure represented in an inn
portant epoch, such as the mulct repeal
question now under consideration. For
that reason the house may seek to give
the right of way to the Crozier bill in
nrafaranna tn the Ola TkcOn hill
Most of the leaders, however, expect
hat the house dry forces will be
willing to compromise a little on the
"home measure" tendency in order to
facilitate the enactment. 1t is as
sumed that the Crozier bill will be
called from the committee and placed
on the calendar.
When consideration is taken up Of
the Crozier bill an effort will be made
to substitute the Clarkson bill. Unless
this is done the CrOZier bill would have
to run the senate gauntlet, where the
vote was close, or the Clarkson senate
bill would have to be taken up sep
arate n enacted before the repeal
question would be in form to go before
the governor.
Some rumors have been started to
the effect that Governor Clarke will
veto the mulct repeal measure, if it
comes before him for signature, bas-
ing his action on the probable submis-
sion Of the prohibitory question to the
voters on the application for a consti-
tutional amendment. It is evident.
however. that these rumor are merely
"straws' at which the wet" forces
are grasping to modify the situation.
In the early estimates by the tenn
perance forces in the last election Gov
n Clarke was classed as doubtful"
but later was given a general 80. K"
by some Of the temperance leaders.
