CORRUPT ELECTION
Mitchell Ballots Tempered With,
Judge Finds.

Mitchell, June 15.-Charges that
ballot boxes in the Second ward were
tempered with in the November cleo
ton when Charles Fowler won the
office of treasurer of Dawson county
by thirty-six votes, are contained in
a decision handed down by Judge
Frank B. Smith of the circuit court.
The decision reviews the evidence
submitted last year.
John Anthem, Fowler's opponent
for the office, started a contest based
on the Second ward vote. The con-
test was carried to the supreme
court and remanded for trial in the
circuit court.
Second ward ballots when produc-
ed in court showed a reversal from
the official canvass, the court giving
Anthem the election by a majority of
81 votes. Thirty-seyen ballots were
found by Judge Smith to have been
stamped by an incomplete official
stamp. These ballots were cast for
Anthem.
F. F. Owen, sheriff, testified that
late on the night of Sunday, Novem-
Der Is, he gave the key to the room
in which the ballots were stored to
r. w. Zangle, then county auditor.
At 1880 o'clock the same night, he
said, he saw Zangle standing a few
feet from the door of the room.

WAR SUMMARY
PROGRESS OF CONDITIONS AS
COMPILED BY THE ASSO-
GATED PRESS.

New York, n Especial: In
the three weeks hat have elapsed
since the declaration of war by Italy
on Austria, the Italian forces have
been making slow but steady prog
ress. The Italian efforts for the time
being are directed mainly at Trieste,
with the peninsula of Istria, in which
lies Pola, Austria's chief station, as
their great objective.
The Italians already have occupied
important strategic points along the
Isonzo river, which they have cross
ed, and for several days a battle OF
really large proportions has been in
progress in this section of Austrian
territory.
From the Italian side it is reported
that Paulva has been occupied, but
this is denied by the Austrian wal
office. Pola has been visited by an
Italian warship. and, according to un-
official reports, the arsenal has been
almost destroyed by bombs.
The Austrians are said to have
brought $4,000 troops and sixty-four
batteries to aid their defense guard
ing Gorilla, Trieste and other impor-
TAM towns, against which the Italians
are advancing. AS the Notifications
defending Gorilla have been heavily
bombarded and communications be-
tween Gorilla and the rest of the
empire have been cut with the excep-
ton of a mountain road, it is expect
ed that the Italian movement which
- 49,, r1ttsrr .,nIaw cn1I rrrsnw xwsII
necessitate the bringing of heavy
Austro-German forces from other bat
tie fronts, for the Austro-Italian
frontier is of large extent and the
Italian troops and artillery are press
ing forward.
The French continue their offens-
i've, particularly in the neighborhood
of Arras, without cessation. They
report the capture of a ridge at Sou
so held by the French. This ridge
was strongly held by the Germans.
but was taken by assault.
Near Hebuterne a series of German
trenches were captured by the French
according to their report, although
the German war office merely makes
reference 10 the fact that infantry en-
gagements are being fought there.
The situation in the eastern war
zone is somewhat problematical. both
sides claiming advantage, but at off
ferent points. Both Germans and
Russians claim to have taken vast
numbers of prisoners.
The German newspapers generally,
commenting on the American r%ejoin-
der to the German note respecting
the Lusitania and submarine war
fare, favor the opinion that the note
opens the way for further neGotia-
tons and that President Wilson's at
titude has been friendly.

RAIDING THE LAKES
FIVE HUNDRED POUNDS OF
FISH SHIPPED FROM MADI-
son TO SIOUX CITY.

The Sioux Falls Argus Leader
makes the followign complaint of the
shipment of fish out of the state for
market purposes:
rs there a law in South Dakota
preventing the shipping of fish out
of the state? Or is it possible for
outside parties to come into the state
and ship several hundred pounds of
fish to outside market?" The above
questions were asked by a gentleman
who just returned from Lake Mad
ison where he witnessed two profess
sional market fishermen from Sioux
City catch and ship to Sioux City
more than 500 pounds of dressed
fish.
1t is all right for residents of other
states TO visit the lakes and streams
of South Dakota and catch liberal
amounts of fish for pleasure, but
when il comes to catching them by
the hundreds for market purposes,
it is time to call a halt. If there is a
law again this practice the game
wardens should get busy. If not.
then the sooner something in that
line is done the better.
There has been ONE excellent
fishing in both Lake Madison and
Wall lake the past two years, but
neither of these bodies of water are
large enough to stand many such
hauls as 500 pounds of dressed fish
at a crack.

NEWS OF THE WORLD

The government was at this time

revenue from the sale of vodka being
$500, 100000.
Tchelisheff believed that what he had
demonstrated in two villages would hold
true if applied to the nation. He sought
Count De Witte, their Prime Minister
and close in council to the Gar. But
the Ruler of the Russians was unmoved.
In time De Witte fell from his favor
with the Gar and was practically ban
ished.
War was proclaimed.
1t had ever ranked in the Cars bos-
ON that the defeat of his armies in the
war with Japan was laid to the drunken
conditions of his officers. He sent for
Tchelisheff.
And shortly thereafter was issued the
edict which has turned drunken nation
into a sober one.

WHAT ONE MAN DID

The world generally sees only an ar
bitrary measure of an authocratic gov
ernment in the prohibition of vodka in
Russia.
Yet the edict which is making over
Russia had it's beginnings years ago, in
a remote little hamlet, and in the mind
of an unlearned peasant, my name
Michael Demitrovitch Tchelisheff.
AS boy, living in direst poverty, he
saw the ruin vodka created in the hum
BILE peasants among whom he lived. He
hated it, and while only child, deter
mined to fight it. To that end, he
learned to read and write, and so i'm
proved himself that when old enough he
became an alderman in the obscure vii
lage he had chosen as his home and
where he worked as house painter. AS
alderman he was able to drive out from
the village the deadly drink, and showed
the townspeople how thrift and happi-
ness followed upon sobriety.
Then he moved on to larger town
and became, in time, it's mayor. There
he again demonstrated the advantages
of prohibition in routing the vices OF
sloth, brutality and insanity.
