TERM AND FINE
TWO MEN AT SIOUX FALLS
CHARGED WITH TALK
AGAINST GOVERNMENT

Sioux Falls, July 26.-On the
statement of witnesses that the de-
PENDANTS were engaged in making
anarchistic and inflammatory speech
es on Seney island Friday afternoon,
William Bosinger and George Kor-
ski, both of whom held red cards
of membership in the Industrial
Workers of the World, were Satur-
day held under $4,000 bond each in
municipal court for a preliminary
hearing uesday, July 26, at 2 p. M,
before Judge Bergh. 1t is the first
instance in Minnehaha county and
one of the first in the state where
the charge of criminal syndicalism
has been used to check the activities
of the I. w. w.
Both men who are about 80 years
of age. were arrested late Friday
afternoon at the island, by Jack Fol-
som, state deputy sheriff, Julius
Void and Lloyd Wagner, deputy
sheriffs for Minnehaha county. Ac-
cording to the officers they were en-
gagged in addressing a group of about
25 men, Bosinger being accused Of
advocating the overthrow of the gov
ernment and the burning and de-
struction of crops on farms as the
only means of obtaining higher pri-
ces and wages.
States Attorney Waggoner on in
vestigation, preferred the charge of
criminal syndicalism against the men
under the state statutes. The pen
atty for conviction of this offense is
prison for not less than one or more
than 25 years and fine of not less
than $1,000 or more than SIC, 900,
one of the severest penalties that
can be inflicted in South Dakota for
crime. 1t is said to be the purpose
of States Attorney Waggoner to cause
the 1. w. w. to shun Minnehaha
county in the campaign of radical
ism around the country.
In addition to red cards. BOsinger
carried a certificate showing him to
be an organizer and delegate of the

HOG CHOLERA
Is RAG|NG
VIOLENT EPIDEMIC REPORTED
IN NORTHWEST IOWA.

Sioux City, July 26.-Hog cholera
is raging in epidemic form through
out northwestern Iowa and with spe-
cial virulence in the vicinity of
Sioux City, according to information
supplied last night by G. p. Statter.
veterinarian, who has been aiding
in the suppression of the disease.
1t is roughly estimated that sew
eral thousand swine either have been
or now are affected with cholera.
More than 800 hogs in the vicinity
of Sioux City have perished within
ten days, at the commencement of
which period cholera was first de-
tected in this territory, according To
the statement of DIR. Statter.
Immediate use of preventiyes ad-
ministered through vaccination is
urged by the bureau of animal in
dustry and all the veterinarians in
Sioux City who are engaged in the
federal service. If stock breeders OBJ
iect to incurring the expense of pro-
fessional treatment they are advis-
ed to procure the remedies them
selves and administer them to their
stock.
Between Sioux City and Bronson,
Ia, on three farms 500 cases of hog
cholera have been reported. OF the
infected herds 100 have died, and
as many cases still exist further
losses are expected.
Five miles north Of Sioux City in
Plymouth county 900. swine are in
fected. The situation in that neigh
borhood is regarded with much grav-
ity, as heavy losses can scarcely be
avoided, Said DR. Statter. On two
farms i'm that neighborhood condl-
tions are especially threatening. Fiji
ty animals have died on one farm.
In the vicinity of Sergeant Bluffs,
Ia, cholera outbreaks have occurred
on a number of farms. The losses
i'm that locality have not been re-
ported.
Several serious outbreaks of the
disease are reported on farms In
Sioux county. Conditions in that
neighborhood are decidedly threaten
ing. Farmers do not appear to rea-
lize the danger until large numbers
of their swine become infected" said
DR.. Statter. "They ought to vaccin-
ate all their stock at once, as 1t Will
be the means of saving many OF
them. The veterinarians. those in
private practice as well as those in
the employ of the government, are
doing all within their power to check
the spread of the epidemic and to
save as many of the diseased animals
as possible"

Living Costs
Il Pct. Lower

New York, July 26.-Clothing
with an average increase in price
of nine-tenths of one per cent was
the only necessity that went up dur
ing the month of June, according to
statistics covering the entire United
States. made public today by the ma
tional industrial conference board.
Food was the only item that went
down, the decrease being figured at
3-10 of one per cent. All other items
remained stationery. The decrease
in the average living cost of typi-
cal wage earner's family for the
month was figured at 2-10 of one
The statistics showed the decrease
of living costs during the year end
ing July / amounted to 81 per cent.
Counting the deductions up TO July
1, however, living costs still show a
net increase of 81 per cent over those
of July 1, 1914.
Simply stated, the latter fact
means that whatever you can buy for
s1.61 today you could have had for
an even dollar In 1914, or unless
your income equals now $1.61 for
every dollar earned in 1914 you are
not even with the board. Mars has
"stung" you.

CROP OUTLOOK
IS NOW GOOD
INCREASING OPTIMISM NOTED
IN SOUTH DAKOTA.

Pierre. July ga general tone
of increasing optimism in South Da-
kota over the prospects for the 1921
crop, is noticeable this week in the
unofficial reports of the various
county agents. While the states
small grain crop has been materially
injured by a variety of conditions,
principally drouth, during the critic
al June growing period, the harvest
shows conditions, even in the most
severely burned areas, better than
were at first anticipated. Corn is
the one crop that is unharmed. and
is being looked to to carry the farm
ers over until another year. With
but few exceptions the reports this
week indicate this crop is still ahead
of normal and continues, under fav-
orable conditions, its rapid advance.
A few areas report moisture is need
ed to insure the unqualified success
of the crop. 81
Clear, moderately cool weather,
for this time of year. has been the
order during the last week and has
greatly aided the harvest, which in
most sections of the state has now
entered the last half. Scattered show
ers have fallen in some parts, but
have been followed Immediately by
sunshine. III
The labor situation is said to con-
tinue satisfactory with little difficult

Isaac Lincoln
Passes Away

Aberdeen, July Ex-senator Isaac
Lincoln, So, passed awaysat his home
here at IL o'clock today after an ILL
ness of nearly year. A trip TO
California failing to help him and
slightly over a month ago, he sub
mitted to an operation in St. Paul.
He failed to regain strength, though
and has been confined to his bed
since that time.
Successful as a banker, a farmer
and as a legislator, Isaac Lincoln,
was probably one of the best known
men in South Dakota because of the
active interest he exhibited in prob
lens vital to the state. He was
distant relative to Abraham Lincoln
and a grandson of the former United
States ambassador to Spain VINO
while in office was married to Por-
tuguese Jewess.
