Fred Bell Released Pending 4 Deci-
sion.
Bison.-Fred Bell, who was convict
ed of mansiaughter here last May
and sentenced to fourteen years in the
state penitentiary at Sioux Falls, has
been released from custody under S.
900 bail bonds pending a decision
from the state supreme court on the
defendants request for a new trial on
the grounds that there was not suffi-
cient evidence to warrant a conviction.
Bell is charged with having shot and
killed Claud Heron last May at Bells
Ranch, near Faith. The evidence
showed that Heron and three other
men wen to Bells place and ordered
the latter to keep his sheep off their
land, they being cattle men and resent.
ing the inroads made BY the sheep
raisers on their ranges, cattle refusing
to feed after sheep.
In the argument it was brought out
that one of the men in Herron's party
passed some insulting remarks at Mrs.
Bell, which aroused her husbands an
ger. He went into the house to pro-
cure his gun Heron starting after
him. Bell is said to have struck Her
ron down, and, as the man was rising
to his feet with his revolver trained
on Bell, it was said that Bell fired at
the same time, but without hitting the
other man.

Mitchell.-As the result of their pre-
liminary hearing, fifteen prominent
homesteaders and other residents of
the Millboro territory in Trip county
have been held for trial in the state
circuit court on the charge of riot.
All the defendants refused to furnish
bonds and were turned over to the
sheriff pending the converting of the
term of court at which they will be
tried. They were members of the So
called morality squad" Believing
that the morals of their territory re-
CURED the toning up process a vigil
lance committee composed of forty
five or fifty homesteaders organized
and made a raid through the territory
on persons whom they regarded as be-
ing in need of a moral uplift. The fif-
teen men held for trial are charged
with being the ringleaders in the up
lift movement. The vigilance commit
tee visited. among other places, the
home OF Jay McWade and Miss Clara
Deiterman and demanded to see their
marriage certificate. The document
not being produced the members Of
the vigilance committee informed Nc
Wade and his alleged affinity that they
must either be married or leave the
country. Instead of complying with
the demand, McWade and Miss Del
termann swore out warrants for the
arrest Of fifteen members Of the vigil
lance committee, with the result stat
ed. In retaliation, the vigilantes had
McWade and the woman arrested on
a statutory charge. AS the result of
theri preliminary hearing, McWade
and Miss Deitermann also have been
held for trial in the state circuit court.
Instead of refusing to furnish a bond
for their appearance, as is the case
with the fifteen defendants in the riot
a McWade and Miss Deitermann
furnished a bond and have been re.
leased pending their trial in the cir.
