Head Cheese
Was Poisonous

Belle Fourche, Jan. 24.-A few
night ago DR.. Chassell was called to
attend a family in the country some
miles north of the city. The trouble
was ptomaine poisoning. The men,
bers of the stricken family were soon
relieved.
Returning to the city the doctor
and his chauffeur both became i'll and
evidences of ptomaine poisoning de-
veloped. Quick treatment had de-
sired results.
Enroute to the stricken family the
doctor and his chauffeur lunched at
a farm house, neighbors of the strick-
en- family. Investigation disclosed
that they had partaken of some head
cheese, that members of the stricken
family had also partaken of some of
the cheese which had been sent over
as a neighborly act, but members of
the family where the cheese was
made made had not yet partaken of
it. This made 1t appear certain the
poison was in the cheese and it was
destroyed.

Mean Man RObs
His BenefactOr

Aberdeen, Jan. 24.-An individual
giving his name as Wilfred Guillis
is contender for the doubtful honor
of being the champion "mean man"
of this section.
He has been arrested on a grand
larcency charge as the outcome of a
gross breech of hospitality.
A week ago he appeared at the
home of Arthur Bean, farmer re-
siding near Bath, and, being sick,
Bean took him into his home, look
ed after him and members of the
household gave him medicine and
brought him back to a good physi-
cal condition.
Guilis rewarded the kindness OF
his benefactors by disappearing with
a revolver, watch, rifle, overshoe.
and a coat belonging to them. Wher
arrested the stolen goods were found
in his possession.

GOOD ROADS
MEN TO MEET
HIGHWAY SUPERINTENDENT TO
ASSEMBLE AT PIERRE TO
OUTLINE YEARS WORK.

Pierre, Jan. 24.-The state high
way department has reports from the
highway superintendent of practic-
ally all the countries of the state, in
which such officers are employed, an
nouncing their intention of being
present at the meeting to be held in
this city on January 27 and %.
The program outlined for the meet
ing covers highway construction and
maintenance, in all their features,
including cooperation with other
county officials as well as the direct
work of the engineers themselves in
the active construction and mainte-
nence work.
The program is given over to the
working force, and the only man on
the program from outside of this
state is f. d. Hudgins of Minneapolis,
who can hardly be called an outsider,
as he is the federal representative
in charge of highway work in South
Dakota, and spends enough of his
time in this state to be classed as
practically part of the working
force for South Dakota.
This will be the first meeting OF
highway officers, and there will be
lot of interesting discussions along
this new line of work in South Da-
kota.

MANY WANTING
LAND LOANS
SCHOOL DISTRICTS AND CITIES
HIT BY FINANCIAL STTUA.
TION.

Pierre, Jan. 24.-Application to
the state land department for loans
are far in excess of any former period
in the history of the state. Many
of the applications come from school
districts, towns and cities, which
must sell bonds for municipal i'm
provements. AS the law stands at
present these organizations are linn
tied to an interest rate of per cent,
and requirement that their bonds
cannot be sold below par, and the
present financial situation makes
this hard proposition this spring.
This situation is increasing the ur-
gency of demands from a number of
sources for an early special session of
the legislature to amend the law on
such securities to allowed the bonds
to be placed to meet existing condi-
tions and the work contemplated to
go on. The state department cannot
meet the many demands and the
municipalities are finding it hard to
secure private loans under the re-
strictions as to interest, either in the
way of new loans or on renewals.
One of the features of the situa-
ton is the need of cash to improve
or construct electric light plants in
towns which desire this convenience.
If these towns are not authorized to
pay the current rates of interest they
cannot get the funds to carry out
their plans. This is aggravated by
the fact that Liberty bonds are now
selling at such a discount that the
purchaser cannot do better than S
per cent on such investments.

PLANS To CHECK
HIGH INTEREST RATE
OKLAHOMA SENATOR WOULD
LIMIT THE CHARGE OF G
PER CENT.

Washington, d. c., Jan. -24.-De-
claring that high interest rates on
call money, instead of tending to
check speculation, depressed market
conditions, Senator Owen, democrat
of Oklahoma, introduced a bill to
prohibit federal reserve banks from
charging more than 6 per cent inter
est on collateral call or thirty-day
loans.
In statement accompanying his
bill Mr.. Owen, who is former chair
man of the senate banking commit,
tee, said the measure was designed to
stabilize commercial interest rates.
"The purpose is to stop violent and
arbitrary fluctuations of interest
rates by banks in leading cities on
call loans," the senator's statement
added. There is no sound reason in
these excessive call loan rates, which
are alleged to be justified By the de-
sire to check speculation. The high
rates do not stop speculation, but
promote a bear market and create a
situation that permits the inside to
sell short at profit.
Banks ought to be content with a
fair rate and avoid usury. They
should respect the spirit of the
statutes, which put a limit of per
cent as a fair basis.
"The national banks earned at fair
rates $1,0O0,OO0,000 last year and
the public is entitled to a fair rate of
interest. 1t would be better for the
country to lower the rate of interest
for productive and distributive pur-
poses and thus lower the high cost of
living"

Washington, Jan. 24.-The BIZ
partisan conference again was called
off today by Senator Lodge. He told
democratic senators he wished to
consult with his republican col
leagues.
Calling off today's conference was
the first direct result of yesterdays S
insurrection in the republican ranks,
which brought about warning to
Lodge that any compromise on the
treaty would endanger his party soli-
darity and his leadership.
Lodge in his notice to democrats
that the party was off set no defi-
mite time for the conference to re-
sumo. He and republican conferees
went into a secret session to discuss
their course in the light of yester|
days events.

POTASH INDUSTRY
BLACK HILLS SEEMS RICH IN
GLAUCONTTE SHALES.

DeadwoOd, Jan. 24.-If the efforts
of chemists to discover a process
whereby potash can be successfully
extracted from green sands and glau-
conite shales in commercial quanti-
ties are successful as they are expect
ed to be, there is every prospect that
the Black Hills will become a great
potash producer. 1t is announced
that the eastern research chemists
who now are investigating the mat
ter will in the near future make pub
lie the result Of their findings. 1t is
rumored that successful method of
extration has been discovered.
GlaucOnite shales are in evidence
throughout the Black Hills, and es-
pecially in the territory Immediately
adjacent to Deadwood, where they
are prominent in strong green sands
cropping out of the Deadwood forma-
tion.
