OPENING THE BIDS.

The Board of Trustees OF the Hospital
I'm Session for the Purpose Of Award
ing the Building Contracts.
As per the advertisement the board Of
trustees of the south Dakota hospital for
the insane assembled at the hospital at
twelve O'Clock to-day and opened the
numerous bids for building the two ad-
dltional wings TO the asylum. The
board is complete, the members thereof
tached to this meeting. Colonel Gale,
of Canton, has been in this city siuce
Saturday, not for any particular pur-
pose except TO avoid a long, night ride
from Canton had he waited until to-day.
MIR. Quigley, of Parker, arrived last
| night, and the other members in Yank-
are Yankton men.
The advertisements for bids have at
tracted considerable attention, and
there were not less than thirty bids in
the possession of the board when the
hour for opening arrived. Bids were
received up to twelve O'Clock to-day,
and the inspection of them began at one
O'Clock. Among the bidders are sew
ersl Yankton men, and Sioux City,
Omaha, st. Paul and Chicago age also
represented among the crowd. The
greater portion of the afternoon was
occupied with opening the bids, and il is
probable that two days will be con-
sumed in awarding the contracts as the
bids include propositions for the work
complete, and also bids on the brick,
work, painting gas and steam fitting and
other portions separately. AS one OF
the wings must be ready for occupancy
on or before October LIST no time can be
lost by the firm or man who ecures the
contract, and it is asserted that work
will begin within a very short time.

The Farmers and Banks.


An old farmer of this county, who has never
had occasion to borrow money in his life, was
in town this week, and although he had no
particular need for cash, thought he would get
a loan. simply because he had read in the
papers that there was money in the banks
than could be conveniently lent. AS luck
would have it. he applied first of all at four
commercial banks in succession. He was pre-
sonally introduced at two of these institutions,
and at the others he bore letters of Identification
from prominent dealers in farm machinery in
this city. He was astonished to find that not
one of these banks cared about lending him %
paltry 81, 900. In the end he went home with
out borrowing q cent
This story was told an authority on financial
matters and he said: 1.-THE commercial banks
do not care about lending money to farmers at
all. Farmers have the reputation of being very
careless about attending to the dates on their
paper A farmer will borrow ST. 900 for three
months. and will just as likely as not keep re-
newing the note for year or two. He doesn't
bother himself about paying the principal at
any given time, and the protesting of a note
doesn't disturb his soul particle. AT the same
time principal and interest will be paid sure
enough, when the farmer is good and ready to
discharge the debt. That's why commercial
banks who deal in short time loans and prefer
to turn their money over rapidly. do not have
any time to spend for farmers. The savings
banks monopOlize the farmers business entirely,
far as loans are concerned"

A Clergyman's View.

To the Editor of the indianapolis Journal,
The proposal to elevate Lamar to the high
place OF Justice Of the Supreme Court strikes
the mind of q clergyman with peculiar force.
Suppose that in the late selection of most en-
inent and scholarly men to revise-that is.
TO sit in judgment upon the revision of the Holy
Scriptures-it had been proposed to have among
the number one who had most violently opposed
the truthfulness and divinity of said Holy
Scriptures, and who in addition, had had none
of the previous scholarly training to fit him for
such a position, and whose life had been signal
lied by open and rebellous opposition to
thus sgnalized his opposition and per-
sisted in standing as the representative
of large class who denounced gthem-what
would be thought of the propriety OF such
acting in fine interest of the peace and quiet
of the public mind in making such q nomination.
The South who are standing by and supporting
such a measure, are themselves acting in the
same spirit of rule or ruin" that characterized
them before the war; and il this and similar
matters persisted ill., it is plainly but another
challenge to combat Perhaps there are a thou
sand better lawyers in the South than Mr. La

place. Why put forward the most Objectionable
