Harvey was dumfounded, spechless.
His mind was a perfect blank. He

around ~helplessly. Then the preacher
asked for the wedding ring. He had
it not. But Mr.. Oliver finally found
1t for him and put it on the brides

Spurn Demand for
Their Resignation

Britton, June 23-At taxpayers
meeting held in Britton a few weeks
ago the actions of the board of coun-
ty commissioners came i'm for severe
criticism for alleged irregularities in
the conduct of county business, some
going so far as to say the commits
sioners should at least be removed
from office.
Al that meeting a committee of
five men was appointed to wait on
the county commissioners and ask
them to resign. The committee call
ed on the different members of the
board. requesting their resignation,
which was flatly refused by all three
commissioners, who claimed that they
had not knowingly or purposely done
anything wrong or defrauded the
county out of single cent.
j. II. Russell, county highway
commissioners, also was under fire
and was asked TO resign. Russell was
not ready to quit either, and told
the committee so.
The matter was referred to the
states attorney, Buell. F. Jones, fol
| action. Mr.. Jones would not prose.
cute on the grounds of insufficient
evidence, but referred the matter tc
the attorney general and the COVER.
nor for their consideration.

JECTS In SIGHT.

Washington, ID. c., June 23-South
Dakota's quota of federal aid for the
building of roads throughout the
state amounting to -S02,707 will be
available to the state highway COM
mission July l.
: The federal appropriation which is
for 1923 will be matched dollar for
dollar by state appropriation and
and with federal funds available
July it is expected several state high
way projects which have been held
up by the state highway commission
for lack of ready funds will be con-
tracted for and work started idnm ed
lately.
States accepting federal aid in the
building of highways must observe
the following federal provisions.
Estates must maintain adequate
highway departments. Funds to
match federal aid must be placed un-
der the direct control of the state
highway department The type OF
surface constructed must be adequate
for the traffic anticipated, with rea-
sonable grades, curves and other fea-
lures. States must obligate them
selves to maintain all federal aid
roads constructed and in case this is
not done any federal funds available
for new projects may be withdrawn
until they are put into satisfactory
condition. All federal aid funds
must be spent on connected sys-
tenn of roads consisting of not more
than z per cent of the total mileage
in each state and divided into pri-
mary or interstate roads and second
airy or intercounty roads"

AUTO LICENSES
Brine BIC SUM
NEW CAR REGISTRATION LAW
EXPECTED TO GIVE ANNUAL
REVENUE OF S1,75O,0O0.

Pierre. June 23-An annual rev.
enue of over $1,750,O00 for highway
construction in the state is looked
for by the highway department when
the new auto registration goes into
effect.
Of this about $500, 900 would sc
into the county funds, and the bal
ance come to the state highway
fund.
This, with the federal aid fund
and the revenue from gasoline tax
es, shohld keep the state in financial
position to continue the construction
of many miles Of new highway each
year, as the revenue from the auto
registration Is ali to 60 into new con-
srtuction.
This leaves the question of main
tenance of present constructed high
ways to be met by some other means.
While the new registration is far
different than the present flat regis
tration fee for autos of all kinds, and
calls for much larger payment. at the
same TIME III T6lleNeS the auto OWnSl
from all other classes of taxes
against his car and in many instances
will not be any heavier than the
present registration, plus local tax,
es levied.
The new registration puts hevier
tax on the large cars and freight
trucks than on light cars, as the
roads need be constructed to meet
this class of traffic, which means con
struction at heavier cost than that
which would be required for light
cars alone.
The car owners are expressing the
idea that horse drawn vehicles should
also be assessed for the use of the
highways. and will no doubt have to
pay their share for maintenance ex-
pended. which would be by general
taxation, from which the auto own.
ers will be exempt.

Mrs. James Wilson. Misses Agnes

Albert Anderson. 1t was one of the
greatest social successes ever given
in Sturgis. The rooms were nicely
decorated with flags and flowers and
the program from start to finish was
a complete success and will be long
remembered by all present.
The army officers were profuse in
their praise of the hospitality of the
Sturgis citizens. their cordiality and
their friendly cooperation. They

Meade as the ideal spot in location,
equipment and environment for the
training of the citizen soldiery.
