oACoMA BANK HOLDS
FORGED SECURITIES
Bogus Cattle Mortgages Used
to Cover Financial Needs of
Peter Dirks, Deceased.

Chamberlain. S. D.. Oct. 7.-As the
investigation proceeds in the affairs
of the closed Dirks banks at Oacoma,
q tangled condition of affairs is dis
closed.
Many forged notes and bogue mort
cages have been found among the al
legged assets of the bank. Some of h
forged signatures Of the register of
deeds, showing on documents never
filed for record, are so we'll done that
the register Of deeds had difficulty in
separating the bogus and genuine sig
natures.
The examiners claim that Peter
Dirks. in trying to tide over his
strained financial condition, covered up
for money that he had taken by
executing bogus cattle mortgages and
accompanying notes.
During the last three weeks of his
lie Mr. Dirks ate practically nothing
and was constantly under the influence
OF liquor. He knew that he was in a
financial tangle from which he could
not emerge.
In the first references to the death
OF Nj. Dirks, a correspondent at Pierre
listed him as vice president of the
Chamberlain State bank. This was an
outright error Mr.. Dirks has had no
connection of N kind with the Cham
pertain bank for more than q wear.

Fahrenheit, 1000 soldiers OF the Japa-
nese army. stationed in F'ormosa and
the Pescadores, made a 12-day march
in F0rmOsa between July 1 and July II.
Only three cases of sunstroke are re-
ported. The first nine days were spent
in marching. and the troops actually
covered more than 100 miles. The last
three days were spent in maneuvers.
With . view to finding the best cloth

the soldiers were allowed to wear any
costume they pleased. Some wore he'll

some tab. Besides their clothing, the
best food and drink for soldiers under
these conditions were also studied.

The People Pay.
The people of the United States are
paying wal prices for q great many an
ticles Of everyday use because those
articles are not produced at home. In
other words, they are having a prac
teal demonstration at so much per OF
the democratic free trade idea. Yhs
idea is that we ought to buy where w
can buy cheapest. 1t may have worked
in the old days, but it doesn't worn
now, because all the cheap sources OF
supply are closed. II the old Repub.
lican idea of protecting industry in our
OWN country had been followed con.
sistently for the last ten OF ffteer
years we should have had factories
busy in the production Of all these
things. and our people would be able
to purchase them at reasonable prices,
Right now the mistake OF abandoning
the theory of protection is costing the
people of this country more than il
costs any European nation 10 e0 its
