ME|VVON|TES TO
Be GOOD
SCORES COMING BACK TO SOUTH
DAKOTA TO RESUME PER-
MANENT RESIDENCE.

Sioux Falls, Jan. 12.-Mennonites
of South Dakota will become good
citizens within the meaning of the
law and without sacrificing their re-
ligious principles, according to the
opinion of Attorney George w. Wright
of Huron, who is in the city on legal
business. Also scores of Mennonites
who have left the state and settled
in Montana are coming back here
again, said Mr.. Wright, and he be-
lieves they have found out that the,
can retain their colonies along more
American lines and still prosper.
An odd feature of the Mennonite
history in South Dakota, a history Of
failure to readily assimilate thu
American ideals, is the suit that tn,
state brought through the South Da
kota council of defense which result
ed in Judge Taylor's ordering tht
Mennonites to dissolve their close
corporation, sell a large amount Of
their holdings and readjust them
selves. Notice of appeal was giver
and while there is no certainty thai
the case will be appealed, the state
council of defense must remain of.
ficially intact until the legal require.
ments of the difference have been
met although the council is not ac-
tive. Attorney Wright is secretary
of the council and does not look to
see the case appealed, but takes an
optimistic view of the situation.

AID DEFENDANTS
OF DEPORTEES
GOVERNMENT WILL TAKE AC-
TION PURELY AS A HUMAN
ITARIAN MEASURE.

Washington, Jan. 12.-The gov.
ernment has definitely decided io
render aid to the dependents of al
alien radicals whom it deports, AS
sistant Attorney General Garvan an.
nounced today. Action in this direc.
ton will be taken purely as an hui
manitarian measure and not because
of any obligations to the families oi
the aliens, he added.
1t has not yet been determined
through what channels provision will
be made for the care of the persons
left alone through the deportation oi
the breadwinner. 1t was indicated
however, that eventually, if the per.
sons concerned SO chose, they would
be sent to joni the deportees over
seas. Legislation may be necessary
to accomplish this.
Officials said that much of the
ground for possible reprisals would
be removed if the families were final
ly sent to join their leaders.
While the government makes no
provisions for the families of persons
sent to federal prisoners, it was ex-
planned that deportation was differ
ent matter and because of its possible
effect in Russia and other foreign
countries it was worth while for the
government to care for persons left
unprovided for as a result of deport.
alton proceedings.

MISSING GIRL LAST
SEEN WITH MAN
NO TRACE YET OF ALMA Null.
HOLLAN SINCE SHE DISAP-
PEARED AT HURON.

Huron, Jan. 12.-Where is Alma
Mulhollan? The police do not know
and the girls mother does not know.
Her mother is Mrs. Frank Mulhollan.
who Is employed here in the Sauer
cigar factory.
The last l saw of Alma was at
$3.50 o'clock on the afternoon Of
Thanksgiving day." the mother told
a reporter, as she bent over her work
in the factory. Since that time the
newspapers Of South Dakota and the
police in more than one city have
been making a fruitless search for
the missing girl.
Alma Mulhollan is about IA years
of age. She mas a light complexion
with brown hair and blue eyes.
Vernon c. Miller. of the Huron po-
lice department, is conducting a
search for the girl in the northwest
ern cities. police department officials
announced today.
According to the story given by the
girls mother, the girl had been going
to school in Huron and had had some
difficulty with some of her teachers
and she intended to go to Sioux Falls
to stay with an aunt. Her mother
had packed suitcase and made
preparations for Alma's departure on
the Saturday following Thanksgiving
day, but she never returned to her
home after she left at $50 in the
afternoon
Alma's friend, who accompanied
her to a dance, and who 1t seems was
the last person to have seen her,
made the following statement:
"All the evening during the dance
Alma appeared nervous and frighten-
ed over something. Every time
touched her she jumped. Every time
Alma would leave the dance hall a
certain man would come up to me
and ask me where she was. I don't
know whether Alma had any previous
engagement with him or not. The
last I saw of Alma she was standing
in front of the opera house with him.
don't know whether he had q car
there or not, but I have never seen
Alma SINCE"

Arrest is Result of
Trappers' Dispute

Sioux Falls, Jan. 12.-Deputy
Sheriff Julius Wold made a flying
automobile "trip to Canistota, bring
ing back Lee Jansa, who is under ar
rest on charge of grand larceny.
The complainant in the case is James
Stalding, who alleges that Jansa stole
100 steel traps from him. 1t appears
that there was a dispute over trap
ping privileges. The pelts of fur
bearing animals have become very
high in price and many people have
gone trapping this winter. Both the
above mentioned parties, according to
the complaint, secured a lease on a
piece of land adjacent to a solugh ly-
ing between McCook and Minnehaha
counties. Jansa proved to have the
prior claim, it is said, and his lease
was declared good. This has made
bad feeling between the two men and
1t is claimed is responsible for the ar
rest of Jansa.
