Died Suddenly Sunday Morning!
of Hemorage, large Masonic
Funeral on Wednesday
As rtientioned in these columns
last week, Mr. Grew suffered an
ugly wound while accidentally
cutting into his leg as he was
chopping wood. He suffered sev-
eral severe hemorages and even j
when brought here they refused to i
stop. :
Last Friday night he called for
his mother. She was brought here I
and stayed with him until the fin- j
al summons came. His kind and
Ipving wife too, was constantly at
his side and everything was being
done for his comfort.
Sunday morning he expressed:
himself as feeling fine and urged i
his wife and mother to go to break
fast after he had enjoyed his re-
past. They had gone perhaps two ;
minutes when an other hemorage ;
set in. The doctor came and did ;
all in his power but alas, this loss '
of blood so weakened him follow-
ing the other hemorages that lifejust ebbed away. He crossed the
river into the land whence there is
no return.
It wac thought best to remove
him to the hospital and oddlv en- J
ough he conveyance was nearlv at '
the door, when death said halt! he
is to go no further.
Claude Lvmp.n Crew was born
February 22, 1887 at Salem, lowa,
and lived there with his parents
until he was nine years old when
he moved with them to Pierce,
Nebraska. Fifteen years ago he
came to Jackson county and went
through the privations and hard-
ships of the homesteader. Here
he lived until six years ago when ;
he saw a larger opportunity on
the reservation and moved there, j
In 1914 he was married to Miss
Pearl Williamson, daughter of Mr.
and Mrs.Alex Williamson of Inter-
ior. Their happv union was bless- j
ed with three children. Loehl Or-;
vil aged eight, Lola Aldine aged
seven and Zella Norine two year?
of age.
.
. , .
Besides these he is survived bv
his aged parents Mr. and Mrs. ,E
Ct. Crew who live in the west of
the coun*y as well as his brother
Le«lie of the same neighborhood ;
and a sister Mrs. L. A. l«e of Ly-
mfn, Colorado
Funeral services were held Wed-
nesday afternoon at two o'clock at. t
the Masonic Temnle with the Ma- •
sonie lodges of Kadoka, Cotton-j
wood. Interior and Belvidere tak-
ing charge according to his wish
he being a member of the Cotton-
y-nod lodge of Masons. A. G. .
was acting master and ;
Frank Coye Marshall with Rev. A.;
V. Bryan as chap’ain.
A largo concourse of relatives
and friends took part and the floral
offerings were generous and very i
beautiful, a fitting tribute to the
life of a man who was both honor-
ed and respected as a faithful and
conscientious citizen as well as a
loving father and husband. Inter-
ment was made in the leal ceme- i
terv.
Mr. Crew was a man of sterling
worth and character and so accept
ed and taken by his fellow men ,
wherever he came in contact with
men He served for a term as the
treasurer of • the Washabaugh j
countv schools and as chairman of
the Washabaugh county Hiwav
Board for four years, in which ,
capacity death called him. The
heartfelt sympathy of both coun-
ties, where he vifes widely known, j
crocs out to the sadlv bereaved re-
latives a"d friends in this their
t.cur of deepest osin and anguish.
His untimely end serves as a warn-
ing all to "Prepare for the dav
comes as surelv to each one,
as dav follows night”.

Mail Order Houses 1
The big mail order houses pf the
country always sell certain artic-j
!cs. they call leaders, at cost or be-
low cost in order to belittle the
local small town dealer and to
firing distrust between the con-
sumer and the store keeper. 11
they succeed in this and cause the
'man who buys and the man who
dls to become enemies, the buy-
er will send away for his. stuff
and send the money out of town
where it never to help
build up a community.
Jack Thomas has the past week
and continuing this week taken
the kink out of the tire business
as far as mail order houses are
concerned. Considering the stand
aid tires lie offers and the kind
that ihe big business wolfes offer
and ihe freighi or express added
in them. Jack has them backed
rieht off the mr.p.
Buyers of tires have not been
slow to see this and the Kadoka
Auto Co. has filled orders from
, nil parts of the county, many
buying a whole set and a spare on
top. They realize that they are
i getting one of the best tires at a¦ juice that will not lie duplicated
the coming year and besides they
o-et them right at home where
they can look the stock over and
consult with the dealer afterwards
;if they need to. Jack has certain-
ly hit the Lulls eye as far as tires
and prices are concerned.

I Folks are going to drive long dis-
ances to take* this in. Callers
' from other towns have said so.
It therefore surely behooves
very one Irving in or near Kadoka
to fie here if it is at all possible.
Then too that quarette of expert

DO GOOD ROADS IN-
CREASE TAXATION?
Auto License money and Gas Tax
And U. S. Aid Build Lots
Of Roads
For the benefit of those loss in-
farmed, 1 would like to submit the
following facts:
We will start with our State Hi-
way Commissioners which was or-
ganized four years ago, from tin
result of a federal hiway law
passed by Congress. This origin-
ated from the good roads move-
ment. Oar government had at
that time a vast amount of funds
available for hiways. This was
allowed o the different states, on
the basis of area, population and
vaulations. It then became necess-
ary for the government to require
some corporate body or Commiss-
ion in each state to handle these
funds. Hence the creation of our
State Hiway Commission.
It was also stated in this law
that the states should meet the
Federal government in a fifty-fifty
basis.
I n order for South Dakota to
ake care of its allotment, it either
became necessary to raise this by
lireel taxation, for the counties to
a iso it, or for the state to issue
bonds. Our State Legislature saw
fit to issue $6,000,000 in bonds and
f his was to be alloted to the differ-
>nt counties. 75 per cent of this
was to be used in the county in
vhich it was raised and 25 |>er
•ent of the State Hiway Commiss-
on should j.pend at large among
\c poorer counties, where their nl-
otinent was not sufficent to tnkc
are of the Hiway System.
South Dakota’s allotment from
his Federal fund so far has a-
nounted to around $5,500,000.
With this sum about 3,000 mile.*
have been built or are under eon-
truction in the State system. This
¦i only about half of the program
lesignated by the Hiway law.
Congress, however, began to re-
size that they couldn't keep on
bonding the State to raise these
i ’uiids. So the body passed the
Motor Vehicle Rights Bill, which
'.ook off the personal tax on motor
ars and placed a license tax on
*n them. From data at hand 1
•nd tho-e fees amounted to about
’ 31,500,000 for 1923 and for 1924
vill he crreatly in excess of that.
>
In addition to that, there is the
Gasoline tax, which at. one e«at un
o July Ist. amounted to S3OO 000
: >nd has been two cents from July
Ist. 1923. When we sum up the¦ofiJiher of tourists who have
••ossed our state, we where
omo of it comes from.
