Special to the Globe.
VERMILhIoN, S. D.. April 12.-The re-
appointment of Messrs. Inman, Blair
and Hanson as members of the board of
directors for the University Of Dakota.
is received here with general favor.
Under direction of the old board, of
which these men formed a majority, the
university has been much improved
and the good Judgment of the men is
shown on every hand. The new men,
bers are received with much favor, and
it is said here that the board, as at pres
ent constituted, is as strong one as
the institution has ever known. The
appointment is almost entirely unex-
Dected, the old members being
first named by a Democratic
administration, and Inman a Dem
ocrat; but Gov. Mellette's good
Judgment in leaving politics out
of educational questions, and the ap-
pointment of men best fitted to perfOrm
the work of managing such an inStitu-
ton to the very best advantage is very
highly praised by citizens here. He
could not have made better choice to
accord with the interests of the school.
The placing of these men in control
means an end of all the old hatreds and
jealOusieS that have tried with so little
effect to undermine the efficiency OF the
school with the present faculty; it also
means that the same teachers will be
employed for next year, and the good
work accomplished by a retention of
strong, able men year after year is in
store for this seat of learning.

SIoUX FALLS, S. D.. April 12.-Judge
Frank r. Aikcns opened up his first
term of court in Sioux Falls OH Tues:
last. His fellow members of the bar
were all IN the court room as the new
judge assembled to the woolsack, and
eyed him narrowly and touched him Off
critically as he delivered his first charge
to the jury. II. ii. Keith, who fought
Aikehs at Bismarck, and who contested
the judgeship with him, was cOnspicu-
Gus among the members of the Sioux
Falls bar. The Judge was not little
embarrassed under the trying circum-
stances, and his charge to the jury was
evidently less prominently before his
mind than was the impression he was
making on the boys. 1t was not there,
fore as clear, succinct and judicial as it
might have been. Some of the lawyers
saw in it, and in the Judges bearing,
material for first-claSs judge, while
others expressed themselves as disap
pointed. Since the first trying day,
however, Judge Aikens- has shown a
prOmptneSs of decision, ciearnesS and
discrimination that promise much for
his future. He is gradually overcom-
ing the prejudice which many in the
bar bear him, and by the time the first
judicial convention meets he will have

Promptly to the Calls for Help
From the Stricken Sufferers.
Special to the Globe.
SIOUX FALLS. April 12.-The cry for
help which has come to Sioux Falls
from the fire-stricken regions OF South
Dakota have not been made in vain.
Two days after the great ocean of fame
swept across the prairieS of Dakota and
transformed houses. barns, stock and
grain into heap of cinderS. telegram
was received by the mayor of the city
calling for aid. President Pettigrew, OF
the Commercial club. at once appointed
committee of three to solicit funds.
That committee went to work at once,
and has raised over 81 200 in cash. The
local managers of the Western Union
Telegraph company secured from head
quarters an order for the free transmits
sion of messages to and from
the sufferers. The managers. of the
Adams, American and United States
express companies telegraphed for, and
received authority to transport free of
charge all cOnsignmentS of less than 100
pounds. The ladies of the city called
mass meeting on Monday, and decided
to send a car load of household goods.
clothing and such needful articles, the
Northwestern Il Milwaukee road
promptly agreeing to carry the same
free of charge. The ladies went to
work with a will, and by Thursday
night had fine car load of useful
things, which were shipped this morn-
ing.
1t is, by the way. rather beautiful
thing to see all the rival South Dakota
towns putting aside their petty differ
ences, forgetting their wearisOme rival
ries, and working together heart and
hand to help up their unfortunate COM
rades fallen by the wayside. In mat
ter of business. each Dakota town is
always ready to drive hard bargain
with neighbor. But when misfortune
comes. all at once stand together and
present solid front of helping hands.
Although the calamity which calls out
the expression is a sad one, the sight of
rival towns Working unitedly to aid
their suffering brothers throws Divine
halo over the whole prospect. 1t is the
only silver lining to the dark clouds
which just rolled over the coming state.

PEMBINA, N. D., April 12.-Ac-
cording to the crop statistics of the
year 1SS7-the average yield of wheat

raised in the year of lSS7-Pembina
county was then and still remains the
banner Wheat-growing county of Da-
kOta.
In the year of 1887 fully 5,Oo9,oo0 of
bushels of wheat were raised in this
county ffom-less than 100000 acres UNI
will SurpaSs 1875 by fully 100000 acres.
The Pembina county crop re-
ports of 1887, though inaccurately
obtained, maintained the high
wheat standard of yield; and the
sample of wheat, though largely in
ferior last season throughout North
Dakota, was as excellent in this county
as in any other throughout the territory.
THE OUTLOOK
for this seasons yield appears to be as
suspicious as any oteer i'll the history OF
this county. Already during the past
season qvite new influx of immigra-
ton began, and many others are now

this county, though as yet remarkably
low. in price, are rapidly rising in value,

money or any equipment for farming.
Many, no doubt, will yet arrive to i'm

FARGO, n. d.: April 12.-The enthus-

tournaments to occur here in June
seems t0'be OH the increase. There is
really more unanimity among our citi-

have grand time than was ever known

Walker is making arrangements for
ball game between the Grand Forks and
Fargo mines, three games, best
two in three, with fine prize

at the same time. The city council has
consented to the erection of seats on
the west side of the park, where the
races are to occur, provided the weather
permits, otherwise render shelter. for
which there is plenty of room in COM
pany B armory. Chief Flynn, of the
department, is constantly receiving
communications asking questions and
making offers of substantial proof of
interest in the grand display to occur. at
that time. 1t is expected that many OF
the st. Paul and Minneapolis business
firms will advertise their wares by Civ
ing prizes to be contested for by the
bands or firemen. 1t will be a grand
opportunity to make themselves known
and to advertise their business in this
great, growing Northwest.
