JOHNSON WILLARD GO
HITS BIG BREAKERS
rev LEASED WlRE.1

Ell PASO, Tex, Feb. 24.-The con-
viction Is growing that the champion
ship battle between Jack Johnson and
Jess Willard will not be fought at
Juarez on March or at any other
time. Preparations for the big go are
at standstill.
The latest information from Cuba
is that Johnson will not leave that
island for Mexico. He will not take
any chances of being held by General
Carranza's troops and the probability
of being turned over to the United
States authorities. From all reports
the "big smoke" appears to be we'll
satisfied with his stay in Cuba and is
not anxious to leave. He is willing to
fight Willard at Havana and 1t is more
than likely that the big fight will be
pulled off there.

TEST CASE IN TAN LAW
Express Conn anies Sued for Payment
of Taxes Assessed by the State
of South Dakota.

Pierre, April 20.-An entirely new
departure in the collection of taxes
of corporations is attempted in senate
bill No. SIS, which passed the last SEES
sion as an emergency measure and
seeks TO compel adjudication of taxes
through the ~circuit courts of the
state before any action can be
brought i'm the United States courts.
The main features of the Law are to
require payment first, and then if the
companies are not satisfied, they may
bring suit for recovery of said taxes.
The first suit under this law will be
brought in the Hughes county court,
the papers having been filed in the
cases of the Wells Fargo Express
company, and the American Express
company. for collection of the taxes
due from those companies, the suit
being commenced by State Treasurer
Ewert. The amount claimed to be
due from the Wells Fargo company
is s~14.390.60, and the amount asked
from the American Express company
is S~11,711.29. 1t is not likely that
the case will come on for hearing
until the October term OF court in
this county, as the papers were not
filed in time TO get into the April

CITY ELECTION
MADISON VOTED ON SCHOOL
BONDS AND LIQUOR IL
CENSE TODAY.

Today was election day in Madison
and many other towns in tine state.
Incoming trains this morning carried
few passengers, indicating that the
voters remained at home to exercise
their rights as American citizens.
The principal contest in the state is
on the liquor license proposition and
for weeks the vets and the drys have
been locked in a death struggle to
win victory at the polls today. In
addition to the license question a
number of state towns voted on prop
ositions to issue bonds for public i'm
provements, largely for the erection
of new school buildings.
In Madison the drink emporiums
of the city were closed according TO
state law and the license battle rose
to fever. heat during the day. The
drys were. out in full force early in
the morning and remained on the fir
ing line during the entire day. The
vets were not so much in evidence,
but were no doubt just as active,
their work being perhaps more fruit
full in the jungles than in the open
streets. The polls were closely guard
ed by the drys and voters were close
ly scrutinized i'm order that f1oaters
would not be enabled TO vote. and if
in their judgment fraud in any man
ner was committed the guilty ones
will be called to accoun in due
course. There is a tendency toward
prohibition, not only in South Dakota
but throughout the nation and the
struggle of the drys is to add to their
territory if they cannot bring about
absolute prohibition in certain towns.
Madison's voting on the issuance
of $4,000 school bonds attracted
considerable attention. The board OF
education and the schools mad made
a vigorous campaign in their interest
previous to the election day. Women
are eligible to vote on school propo-
sitions and many availed themselves
of their rights today. In order that
the polling places might appear
homelike and comfy committees of
ladies remained at the polls during
the day to welcome ladies who came
to vote.
The polls were differed as follows:
First Ward-N. B. Alger. w. A.
Clark, Chas. Jones, judges; Earle
Kelley, Chas. Davol. clerks.
Second Ward-Chas. Levee, w. A.
Drake, John Molumby, judges; Geo.

DISCRETION, DIVORCE BASIS
Dakota Records Show Causes Lead
ing to DEGREES.

Pierre, April 20.-More Germans
took out final citizenship papers in
South Dakota in 1914 than did Eng
lish or representatives from English
dependencies. The Germans number
ed 1872, while the combined repre-
sentatives from England, Ireland,
Scotland and Canada was 123. The
highest number from any one country
was Norway. with 219; Russia show
ed 1O8, and Austria so. The state
gained $50 in citizenship for the year
by those who took out final papers
and 1,O37 announced their intention
to become citizens.
The divorce record shows desertion
as the leading cause for granting such
DEGREES. Intemperance is low on the
list as the motive behind the separa-
ton. Out of the AGA divorces grant
ed for the year 215 were on grounds
of desertion, 1872 on charges of cruel
ty. with other causes down to only Is
on direct charges of intemperance.
Out of the list the defendant was 4
resident of the state in 29S cases and
a nonresident in 164 cases.

sible to locate the exact place because
of the sand and rocks and debris that
have been washed against and around
the boulder, says Roades.
Roades is running eating houses
at clifton and jennings. He has been
in the old field camps as chef for sev-
eral years and prior to that time was
in a similar position with circuses,
COW camps and freighting outfts. He
started at the age of 10 years as a
fr%eighter, driving mules out of Cald-
we'll, Kan, for his father.
Speaking of the money, Roades
said:
This $4,000 in greenbacks was
obtained in a rich haul made by a
band of outlaws. but it was necessary
for them to cache the money for the
time being. They climbed the blum,
put the money i'm a cleft in a rock
and then with crowbars turned a
large boulder on top of the cleft.
The money was wrapped in a piece of
buckskin and then encased in some
copper. | know that it has never
been recovered, and perhaps now il
never will be, for it would no doubt
be necessary now 10 remove a vast
amount of accumulated earth and

After almost a years search, how
