STOOD BY HIS CONVICTIONS
Seventeenth Century EneIishnan Re-
fused to Change Them At the
5ehest Of Tyrants.

l Recently book of William Prynne's
brought a high price In London.
Prynne was Puritan writer of the
Seventeenth century whom torture
could not intlmidate. He wrote a
book. .Histrio- Mastix, the Players
Seourge," In which he attacked
play-actIng. particularly by women.
Unfortunately for Prynne, Queen
Henrietta Maria had just taken
part In a play and he was accused Of
denOuncing her. His ears were cut
OF. his book burned by the hangman,
and he was sentenced to life imprison-
ment In the Tower Of London.
Willie In prison Prynne wrote two
pamphlets against the English bfsh-
cps. and for this the stumps of his
ears, which had been left on the pre-
viOiss occasion, were cut OF, his
cheeks branded and a fine Of $4,000
assessed. He was later released from
prison by warrant of the house of
commons, served two years more as
the result Of a controversy, and was
spnointed keeper Of the Tower rec
ords By Charles III, which post ne held
until his death in 1869

Pine Biuff-Two weeks OF close

nation of 203 men, has failed to dis
close a Single instance of convicts
being cruelty treated or of punish
ment being inhumane," according TO
the report of the Jefferson County

Quoted by a subcommittee OF the
Grand Jury, consisting of w. c. Hud-
son, c. E. Yowell. l. F. Magee, w. p.
McGeorge and c. W. Butts. In its
report this committee said that 1t
had examined convicts naked and
had watched them closely While using
The the Shower baths and we failed to
find single convict with bruise, cut
or scar on his body or limbs made by
any warden, deputy warden, trusty or
free man."
From reports we had read in the
newspapers the special committee
report continued, I'VE imagined that
the cenvicts had ben thrashed until
their bodies were black and blue and
that many Of them would be able to
show us scars on their bodies caused
by cruel and inhumane treatment.
There was not a convict at camp No.
2 who could show US scar or stripe
on his body. Every convict reported
TO US as having scars on his body
was examined. We were slow, care
full and painstaking in our investiga-
ton and examined the bodies OF the
men carefully. We did not find
convict with O scar or any kind OF
mark on his body tom punishment In
fiicted at the state farm. Had any
man out of the 203 we examined
known of a man with a scar. we are
sure it would have been reported TO
us. One convict was reported to US
FIVE or six times as having a large
number of scars on his body, but we
examined him carefully and We did
not find a scratch ON his hide.

The Deadwood city council has
taken action to reduce electric light
charges in Deadwood to the old rate
Of 10 cents per kilowat. This action
was taken Notwithstanding that the
manager Of the Consolidated Power

Deadwood and other Black Hills cities
with electric lights and power and
gas, appeared before the council and
claimed that even with the present
high rates in effect the had
been making only 6 per cent on It's

TO STAND BY THE POOL

ut seems advisable for South Da-
kota wool growers to stand by their
organization in the matter of the state
cooperative wool pool if they expect
to win out in the fight this year and
next says J.. G.. Holmes, extension
livestock specialist at State college
and secretary of the South Dakota
Sheep and Wool Growers association.
The South Dakota association has
received about 1885, 900 pounds Of
wool to date and has sold about 200, 900
pounds. Some smaller pools have sold
all of their wool at a sacrifice but the
large pools must hold and sell at the
worlds market price or they will com
pletely demoralize the wool market
of the United States.
AT the present time the 1921 wool
market does not promise a very high
price on account of the supply on
hand similar to the South Dakota
grades. No doubt the spectators will
be in the field On account Of the prom
Use Of a tariff, where they were not
to be found last year. The selling
agencies of the cooperative pools in
1920 have had a hard time to induce
the mills to buy very much wool. Be
cause the spectators have not been
buying the cooperative pools have
been loaded up above expectation and
this will make the producer stand the
carrying charges.
THE state cooperative pools have
been conducted in a most efficient
manner and they will net the growers
a few cents more per pound than the
spectators can afford to give without
taking a loss, but on the other hand
they must wait for their money
Carrying charges are about one cen
per pound a year in the South Dakota
association, which is as cheap as car
be expected, and this leaves the I'm
sold wool in the pool in a better con
dition than most woods that are stored
at home.
"Storehouses and market facilities
are now being arranged for those wish
ing to stand by the three-year WOO
marketing program as outlined by the
American Farm Bureau enlarged WOO,
committee"

ST. PAUL STOCK MARKET

Contrary to the opinion of most
men in the trade cattle receipts 1T
leading central markets this week eX-
ceeded the liberal receipts of last
week, and with the continued light
inquiry from the country for stockers
and feeders, and consumptive demand
for dressed beef at low ebb, due To
more workers being out Of employment
than ar any time during the present
industrial depression, cattle prices
broke sharply in the past weeks trade.
All classes of killing cattle are soc to
75c lower than at the weeks opening.
Best fat steers at the close are quota
bic from $7.500S.00, with the bulk of
fat steers selling from $67507.50. A
and heifers are selling from $1,000
$50, with the bulk Of butcher COWS
and heifers going from $4.0006.00.
Gamers closed at prices ranging from
$1.50@2.25, with cutters on up to $3.50.
Bologna bulls closed inactive, these
selling largely from s3.5004.00. Prices
of veal calves declined soc, best lights
to packers being $3.50. Only strictly
choice heavy feeders on the fat cattle
order are selling at $7.50@S.00, with
the bulk Of desirable heavy feeders
going from $6.50@7.25, Strictly
choice stockers, weighing under $50
pounds, are quotable up to $500, or
better, but the bulk are selling from
1913 down to $500. A considerable
number of stockers and feeders of
common and medium grades are al
most unstable.

Governor w. II. McMaster officially
tripped the first bucketful of concrete
into the forms of the first pier OF the
Meridian highway bridge across the
Missouri river at Yankton last week,
and started first constructive work in
the building of the bridge. Three thou
sand people, school children, college
students, out of town visitors and
townspeople marched to the music of
the municipal band TO the r%iverbank,
and covered every lumber pile, filled
direction from the site of the first pier.
Drillers for the Bare Butte Oils De-
veloping company o operating in
the Bare Butte structure cal Sturgis,
struck what is believed to be the
heaviest flow of artesian water ever
encountered in South Dakota. The
flow was found in the Minnekato lime
stone at a depth of about 300 feet,
ard fills a sluice box two feet wide
and one foot deep, flowing at a We
locity not yet ascertained, but esti-
mated by several engineers to carry
about 5000, 900 gallons per day. 1t is
said to be sufficient to irrigate sew
eral townships Of land lying immedi.
ately below it If properly imponded.
The drillers are now casing out the
water preparatory to tapping the
Mime Lusa sands, where oil is ex-
pected. The operations are being
watched with keen interest by geolo-
gists and oil men who generally an
ticipate a flow of oil in keeping with
the pressure found in the water-bear-
ing strata.
