mer direlect of this city, who until
recently was in danger of being de-
ported from Lead and the United
States, has through the efforts of
City Auditor Steinback effected a com
,plete regeneration and now gives
every evidence of becoming a useful
member of the community.
For some months Isaacs was an
.aimless wanderer among the mining
camps of this part of the Black Hills,
sitting his appetite for food with
what he could salvage from garbage
cans. Every time he couio get a
nickle he would "squander" it in
listening to the strains of nickle-in
the slot pianos. His case finally was
reported to the federal immigration
authorities and steps had been taken
for his deportation to Russia when,
tthrough the influence of the city an
,ditor, a change came over Isaacs.
/. Isaacs was the owner of a dwelling
house which had been willed to him
lby his father, but he had no revenue
from it because he needed the hard
luck stories of those who rented it
from him, and the result was that
the rent was not paid. The first
move of the city auditor in the regen-
Grafton of Isaacs was to force the oc-
cupants of the house to pay the rent.
securing enough in arrears to provide
Isaacs with a small bank account.
He took charge of Isacs finances,
with the result that in addition to
the small bank account the former,
direlect now has been provided with
new clothing throughout, even to
fine new shoes, and now Isaacs can
appear i'll any assemblage of Lead
business men and make as good an
appearance as any of them.
The regenerated one has been cau-
toned to look we'll after his personal
appearance in future, and to espec-
tally in future eschew nickle-in-the-
slot pianos.

American Survivors of

WILL ASK TEUTONs
Officially Regarding Sinking
of Sussex. Situation
Admittedly Grave.

Washington. D. C,-Affidavita
nave been secured at Liverpool from
three American survivors of the Brit
lsh horse ship Engiishman to the
erect that the vessel was torpedoed
and shelled by German submarine
according to advices received today
at the state department from the
American embassy In London.
The fact that. the vessel was she'll
ed led the officials to believe that
she might have tried to escape.
American survivors of the channel
steamer Sussex by American consular
agents at Dover all were said in
overnight dispatches to the state de-
partment to bear out the theory that
that vessel was torpedoed. The affi-
davits secured from the survivors
will be sent here
Will Query Germany.
Secretary Lansing with the an
prevail of President Wilson, has in
str. .cted Ambassador Gerard to in
quire of Germany whether any of
its submarines torpedoed the Brit
lsh channel steamer Sussex, upon
which 25 American citizens were
travelling, or the British horse ship
Englishman, which went down with
loss of one American life.
AS the situation now stands the
United States has no conclusive
proof that submarine attacked
either ship, but all evidence at hand
indicates that both were torpedoed
without warning. Upon the response
of the Berlin foreign office to Mr..
Gerard's inquiry may depend tho
next step of the American govern
ment.
Wilson is Angered.
Washington, d. C.-President Will
sons patience has reached the point
of exhaustion in connection with the
destruction Of passenger carrying
vessels in the European war zone.
He is gathering all the facts in re-
lation to the sinking of the Sussex
When these are in his possession he
will decide whether to advise Con-
gress that situation has arisen which
necessitates rupture of diplomatic
with Germany.
Saw Torpedo Coming.
So far as the state department has
been advised the circumstances thus
far developed are:
1. That the quartermaster of the
Sussex saw the torpedo coming and
away in the hope of escaping.
2. That three American passen-
gers swear they distinctly saw the
wake of the torpedo.
3. That bronze fragment was,
found on board the Sussex which
French officer says was part Of
a German torpedo.
Lieutenant Smith, the American
naval attache in Paris, has been di-
rected to examine the fragment If
his opinion should coincide with that
OF the French officer, President Will
son will conclude that the circum-
stantial evidence is sufficient for ac-
ton.

..DEAR OLDDAD"

TO FIGHT VILLA AND HIS
BANDITS

Chicago, Ill.,-With the wanderlust
teeming, Frank w. Koraleski stole
secretly out of the house last Tues
day to see the world and, if pos
sible, help find Villa. Since his sons
disappearance Frank w. Koraleski,
chairman of the board of assessors,
has telegraphed to Col. w. G. kenly
at Jefferson barracks, st. Louis, and
tried in every way possible to find
his boy, who is only Is years old.
Yesterday afternoon the postman
handed Mr.. Koraleski a letter 1t was
from Frank.
1t ran as follows:

Mr.. Koraleski Immediately wired
the money to his son. Whether
Frank is to be received as the pro-
digal son is still an open question.
"My boy was filled with the wan
derlust," said Mr.. Koraleski. 81 can
appreciate what that means to a
Young, spirited fellow. He was read

REPUBLICANS TO

BURKE CALLS CONFERENCE ON

Pierre, S. D.-National Commit
teemen c. III. Burke has called a
meeting of the Republicans of the
state at Mitchell, for Friday, April
Z, at II O'Clock in the forenoon to
egates to the Republican national
convention at Chicago, on the plea
that there is an attempt TO make up
as to whether delegates to ge elected
ing even as representative Republi-
cans of the state, but only as repre-
sentatives of their own interests.
Mr.. Burke says that there is no
desire to in any way interfere with
the state ticket by attempting to
select a list for such places, but will
deal entirely with the matter of selec-
tion of delegation TO the Republic
can national convention.
The call which Mr. Burke is send
ing out by mail over the state is:
believing that it is contrary to
Republican principles for select
few, actuated by selfish motives. to
secretly choose the delegates to the
national convention, and believing
that there should be general con-
should be invited. for the purpose
of proposing candidates for dele
gates to be submitted to the voters
at the primary election and further
more believing that there should be
some opportunity for an expression
to to wether delegates to be elected
be committed to the candidacy of
only one candidate, Or. whether the
delegate should be given latitude to
support and vote for the strongest
and most logical candidate for pres
dent, and with a view to the general
welfare of the party, conference is
hereby called at Mitchell, S. d., on
Friday, April z, 1916, at 1 o'clock
a. M, which all Republicans in the
state favoring party harmony and the
elimination of individual rule, are in
vited to attend.

AUDITORS MAY
ARRANGE NAMES
INDIVIDUAL DESIRES OF COUN-
TY OFFICIALS MAY GOVERN,
SAYS ATTORNEY GEN
ERALS OFFICE.

Pierre, S. n.-That the order of
filing the initial letter, nor no other
provision except the individual de-
sires of the county auditors of the
state can have any effect upon the
arrangement of the ballots at the
primary election is the holding of the
state legal department on inquiry
from Meade county.
The holding is that when the Rich
ards law was adopted, the act which
required rotation of names of can
didates was repealed, and the only
law left upon the subject is the sec
tion of the general election law
which requires the county auditor
to make up ballot from the names
flied with him, and those certified to
him by the secretary of state.
This ruling gives each individual
auditor the right to shape up either
the list of state candidates or those
from his county as his individual
fancy dictates, and in counties where
the auditors are "second termers'
or candidates for reelection, if they
follow their views as expressed at
the time of their meeting here, the
different candidates for county and
state offices who are asking renom-
ination will be given the head of the
list.
