Meat PRODUCTION
1917 RETURNS SHOW 34S,OO
MORE CATTLE WERE RAISED
In STATE THAN in 1915.

Pierre, Jan. 24.-While there may
be a great shortage in the number of
meat animals of the country, ii the
assessors reports are to be taken as
an indication, South Dakota is not in
the list which is allowing the produc-
ton of meat animals to decrease.
The showing is an increase of 348,-
900 cattle in the returns of 1917 over
those of 1916. The total number OF
cattle returned from 1917 was l.
S19,03S. There has been an increase
in the hog production with 22,S3S
head in a total of 616,537. The eff
forts of both cattle and hog produc-
ers of the state have been pushed to
increase the production of both hogs
and cattle for the present year, not
only by the dire need of the country
for such animals, but also spurred by
the high prices which are before
them. Sheep show a reduction, these
being the only meat animals which
have not increased.
While the automobile and tractor
are becoming more and more a part
of the daily activities of the farmers
of the state. yet the horse is on the
increase, the returns of 1917 being
1921 greater than for 1916, re.

AGAINST The Law
MLBANK BOOZE PARTY ENDS IN
ARREST OF PARTICIPANTS.

Milbank, Jan. 24.-Arthur Simon
o and Peter Warryramar were ar
rested in this city on the charge of
having liquor in their possession and
bringing it into the state in violation
of the statewide prohibition law.
When taken before Judge Bouck, of
the state circuit court, Simonson was
fined 500 and costs, amounting to
about $40 in all, and sentenced to a
term of 80 days in Jail. Warryramar
was fined $40 and costs.
The light sentence in his case was
due to the fact that he formerly was
a hard drinker, and because of this
his wife had left him, but during re-
cent months he had reformed and a
reconciliation had been effected be.
tween himself and wife. The evi,
dence showed that Simonson had
tempted him with offers of liquor,
and that in a weak moment he had
been ~momentarily overcome and had
drank a quantity of the liquor.

REMPFER BOUNCED
MITCHELL CITIZENS TAKE HIM
IN AUTO AND HAUL HIM
OUT OF TOWN.

Mitchell, Jan. 24.-William G..
Rempfer, executive secretary of the
South Dakota branch of the Peoples
Council of America for terms OF
peace, was forcibly elected from
Mitchell yesterday and a convention
which he was attending broken up.
Rempfer was here as a delegate
from Parkston of the state socialist
party. The socialists were holding
their state convention, 80 delegates
from 26 counties being present. The
first meeting was held Tuesday
night.
City officials had given sanction to
the convention, and had permitted
the use of the city hall auditorium.
Tuesday night the police found that
Rempfer was apparently the guiding
spirit of the meeting and that he
framed the platform then being o n
sidered.
Mayor j. f. Wells, of Mitchell, who
is in Sioux Falls, was wired and or
dered that no Rempfer meetings be
permitted. The police thereupon
broke up the morning session yester-
day. They say, however, that the So
cialists are welcome to hold a meet
ing, but that Rempfer cannot run it.
Rempfer's election from the city
came late yesterday following his APP
pearance in various parts Of the city
criticising the police for stopping the
convention. He was captured on
the street with others OF the party,
and hustled into an automobile in
which he was driven four miles from
town. There he was set upon the
prairie and told that IL was only 26
miles to Parkston and to be SUR and
not return. Six unknown men were
