EXCITEMENT CAUSED BY
.DEPOSING INDIAN CHIEF

Wheeler, S. D., June 7.-Advices
from the Pine Ridge Indian reservation
are to the effect that there has been
great excitement among the Sioux of
that reservation during the past few
days, this being due to the fact that
the tribal council, composed of Indians
from different sections of the reserva-
ton, deposed Jack Red Cloud from the
position of tribal chief. Jack Red Cloud
is a son of Red Cloud, the famous
Sioux chief, who died a year or two
Ago., ana who for many years was
looked upon as the head of the entire
Sioux nations. Indians representing
h different districts on the reserva-
ton now have held an indignation
meeting at a central point, at which
the action OF the tribal council was
bitterly denounced aid the demand
made that Jack Red Cloud be rein
stated as chief of that branch of the
Sioux nation which resides on the Pine
Ridge reservation. Serious trouble be-
tween the Indians themselves is antici-
pated in the event that the tribal
council refuses to rescind it's action
and reinstate the deposed chief.

CITY MARSHAL OF CANTON
RECEIVERS STOLEN AUTO

Canton, S. D., June 1O.-Coming upon
five automobile thieves from Kansas,
who did not suspect hat an officer
was near, City Marshal Bean, Of Can
ton, captured two Of them, but the 9TH
er three managed to make their es-
cape. The five men, who stole an au-
tomobile in Kansas and made their way
to South Dakota, were peacefully
sleeping beside the stolen machine
when the city marshal appeared on the
scene and covered them with a gun.
Three of them made a run for it in
the darkness. An extended search was
made for them, but without success.
City Marshal Bean has possession Of
the stolen automobile and is holding it

DAKOTA CROP OUTLOOK
CONTINUES ENCOURAGING,

Sioux Falls, S. D., June Crop con-
d1tlons throughout South Dakota on
tlnue of tie most encouraging charac-
ter. While rainy weather during a good
part of May retarted corn planting, the
great bulk of this crop was in the
ground the closing days Of May, and
late fields have been planted during the
past few days.
Early planted corn now is several
inches above the ground and has been
cultivated for the first time. In some
sections, along bottom lands, corn had
TO be %replanted.
The weather during the past few
weeks has been ideal for the small
grain crop of the state. which already
has attained a good growth, with
strong stalks M a fine, healthy color.
Crop conditions in western South
Dakota continue as favorable as in the
eastern section, the rainfall in that Sec
ton having been abundant, with the re-
suit that the ground is we'll saturated
n crops are making rapid growth.
Everything indicates that the western
half of the state will this year produce
the greatest crops in it's history.

COMPROMISE VERDICT
IN EXPRESS TAX SUIT
Decision By Judge Hughes Al
lows About Half of Claims
of. Tax Commission.

Pierre, S. D., June fudge Hughes,
Of the Sixth circuit. has made his find
ings in the express tax cases which
were tried before him, and splits the
difference" between the contentious of
the state tax commission and the ex-
press companies.
Judge Hughes finds the valuation of
the Wells-Fargo company in the state
to be $525,000, On which the tax would
be S5,197.50. To settle this the company
had made a tender of $2O5.60 to the
state. the amount they thought they
ought to pay.
The valuation of the American Ex-
press company was placed at S450,0 900,
which would mean a tax in the state Of
S4,455. This company had made the
state a tender of $1S4.81.
The figures of Judge Hughes are
about SO per cent of the figures which
had been fixed by the state tax COM
mission as an equitable assessment Of
these companies. 1t is not likely that
the companies will pay this without
further appeal to the supreme court.

NO BooTLEGGING PROOF;
SOME PERJURY PROSPECTS

Milbank. S. D.. June 10-A. E. Halves
and Dan Fleming were arrested ut
Milbank on a bootlegging charge, but
both men were acquitted, although It
vas proved thai various persons had
secured liquor from them. The state
was unable to prove, however, that the
men securing the liquor had paid for it,
and thus a chain in the evidence was
lacking.
Some peculiar testimony was given.
one man swore that he and q friend
had sent off for the LIQUOR for their
w USE, having it shipped from an
other town. The mans friend was ex-
cluded from the court room at the time
and did not hear the mans testimony.
Then he was placed on the stand and
swore that neither he nor his partner

OFFICIAL RULING ON
SCHOOL %TREASuRERS
These Officials, When Appoint
ed, Hold For Full Period Of
Unexpired Term.

Pierre. S. D., June 10.-The treasurer
Of an Independent school district, when
appointed by the board to fill a va
cancy, holds office not merely until the
next election, but for the unexpired
term, is the ruling Of the attorney gen.
eral to the superintendent Of public in
struction.
Absence of any statute proviso spe-
cifically concerning the treasurer, while
the law does say that any vacancy oc-
curing more than 80 days previous to
the annual election shall be filled at
the first annual election thereafter, in
relation to members of the board,
causes the attorney general to conclude
that as the proviso refers expressly to
members of the bcArd only, evidently
indicates a legislative intent that the
general rule Of law will apply as to
filling other vacancies, such as that Of
the treasurer, the general rule Of law
being that in absence of statutory pro-
visions to the contrary one appointed
to MI a vacancy holds not merely I'M
til the next election, but for the un-
expired term.
