VISITS RELATIVES HERE

Adam Kricgcr Of Lincoln, Nebras-
ka, visited here with his uncle, John
kricger, in Rosebud Valley, Sunday
and Monday. Mr.. Kriegcr was one of
the principals in what was said to be
one of the best wrestling bouts put
on in the Rosebud, at Winner, last
Saturday evening, when he defeated
John HOfer, OF Winner, in l :15. Ho-
fer was unable to come back after the
first fall. Kricger, who is % years
old and weighs l53 pounds, has been,
following the game since he was six
teen years Of age, and he is kept quite
busy filling dates all over the country.
He left here Monday on the stage
enroute to Chicago, where he will meet
Leu Talaber on the 18th Of this month.
kriegcr claims to be world S champion
welterweight wrestler, and is ready to
meet any man from l52 to l58 pounds
in weight who disputes his claim.

NUMBER AZ.

grain is very small in this section. In
way the farmers are not at all over
Joyed at seeing so heavy a snow at
tins time. The corn crop in this sec
ton was good ons this year, and
the recent heavy wind after a heavy
ram laid nearly all the corn fields
Hat, making the harvesting of the
crop rather difficult, as practically all
OF the corn has to be picked up from
The ground. This snow now covers
the crop and practically stops all
harvesting operations. Owing to the
extreme scarcity Of help to harvest
the crop this fall practically very
little Of the crop has been cIibbed up
to this time. Corn pickers have been
practically impossible to get, notwith-
standing that wages have been ex-
tremely high, and after the recent
high wind which played havoc with
the fields many of the pickers that
had been working quit the job entire
ly, which made bad situation worse.
1t is to be hoped that the SHOW will
not remain long and that our farmers
will be enabled to gather their corn
crop without too great loss. Those
who had been predicting dry winter
will now have to take the same seat
with the fellows who last spring were
predicting a dry summer for us. The
prospects for another good crop year
in 1923 are very bright at this time.

The Democrats seemed to be in
great favor in the Rosebud country
with their candidates for states at
tolneys. Gregory, Tripp and Mellette
county each electing the Democratic
candidate for this Office.
Over in Lyman county the voters
decided that kennebec should be the

seat of Lyman county since it was
organized, almost thirty years ago.
In Tripp county the Republicans
elected their entire county ticket with
the exception of states attorney, the
Democrats capturing that Office, and
independent candidates won for coun-
ty superintendent and in one commits
sioner district.
A number Of counties in the state
voted on the county agent proposition
at the recent election. Well, don't
know but what that is a good way to
settle this question-at least that is
what we have thought about the mat
ter for some time.
Bennett county at the recent elec-
ton voted to bond the county to
take up their outstanding warrant in
debtedness. This is something the
Pioneer has advocated from time to
time for this county, and some day
It is going to be done.
Bennett county gave Olson, Repub-
lican candidate of this representative
district, composed of Mellette and
Bennett counties, a majority of so.
This elects Nh. Olson as our next
representative in the legislature by
the handsome majority of 100.
Jones county, to the north Of us,
voted on the proposition as to whether
