STATE OFFICERS SAY.

Insurance Commissioner Bailey-The
only base ball game that l have seen
was that, years ago. between the Red
Stockings and the Atlantics at New
York. 1t was great match. The Red
Stockings had carried everything before
them. They had never been defeated.
They had struck terror into the hearts
OF every base ball aggregation in the
country. 1t was an enormous crowd
that had assembled to witness the game.
The Atlantics came on the field looking
very nervous. Nine innings were played,
and 1t was tie. That was sufficient
for the Atlantic team, and they seam
pered off the field. The Red Stockings,
a big, fine, athletic-lOoking set OF play
ers, remained, arguing that the match
should be played to a finish. The as
sembled multitude took up the cry, and
the AtlanticS were shamed into return
ing and playing out the match. They
played like demons, and--well, the At
Jond description.
C. K. Teisberg-The scramble among
the Ramsey county and st. Paul officials
for rooms in the new court house re-
minds me of my college days. We were
removed from an old builing into new
one. The rooms were much superior to
the old ones, but everybody was dissat-
isfed. We all wanted the same roem.
The disgruntled officials have one adj
vantage over the students-the are not
compelled to occupy the allotted rooms.
They can quit the public service. They
appear to ignore that fact.
c. II. Bertram, of Monticello-The
coming industries of this state are to be
found in the establishment of cream
cries and starch factories. There's
money in both. We have both in
Monticello. The starch factory has
been in operation some years, and each
fall absorbs 100000 bushels of potatoes.
A ready market Is found for the starch
at Boston, and to show that there is
money in it need only say that the
first years working paid off the capital
swallowed to erect the factory, which
was $4,000. Our creamery commenced
churning to-day, and is branch of the
Crescent creamery at st. Paul. Look
out for creameries and starch factories
bobbing up in every part of the state.

ii The most sensitive, delicate, and cas-
lily injured parts of the human system
are the nerves. These never can be-
come so accustomed to incessant strain
as to escape injury. That which is UNI
pleasant to the senses Is always-and,
so far as the sense Of hearing is con-
cerned, discordant noises always are
injurious to the nerves. The yelling of
steam-whistles, the hiss of steam pipes,
the rattle and clash of wheels on stone
covered streets, the rumble OF street
cars, the clangOr of bells, the bowling
of hucksters, keep up a condition in
which a healthy nervous system OF nat
ural strength and senStiveness is i'm
possible. And there is not one of those
agencies that is not suppressed more or
less completely in most OF the great
cities OF the world.

lowed on certain streets. In Paris any

no bells on street cars. In Philadelphia
church bells have been held nuisance
in certain neighbOrhoOds by judicial
ruling. Steam whistles are forbidden
in nearly all the larger cities IN this
country, and most Of these noises in our
advanced stage of civilization are utter
ly unnecessary. Clocks and watches are
now so cheap and plentiful that steam
whistles and bells to denote the time
are useless. Why should not all useless
noises, and nearly all are useless, De
suppressed?

PIERRE, May 1O.-FOr some time
countless settlers have been lying in
wait along the Sioux reservation for
the appointment of the Sioux commits

the appointment was received, many OF
them went on the reserve and staked
out prospective claims. The matter was

from Washington announces that. set

lands would be coded and thrown open
this summer. In consequence OF this
news, the past few days has developed
rush for the best parts OF the reser-
walton that soon promises to become
equal to the Oklahoma excitement.
The Indians have agreed to cede their
land and wish the cOuntenance OF the
government. The settlers see nothing
in their way to at once secure the best
land, while covered wagons are camp
ing over the mills around Pierre, and
are getting more numerous each
day. A large contingent of the
Oklahoma boomers left over are already
on the ground in Pierre and making
preparations for the rush, while reports
come in that others in great numbers
are on the way here. Settlers from
every part of South Dakota are filling
every train that arrives, and the excite
ment in short time promises to become
general. Claim .shanties and improve
ments are beginning to spot the country
across the river from Pierre. and with
the news of the governments permits
sion to 20 ON the reservation, there is
no telling what the next week or two
will develop at Pierre.

CHAMBERLAIN, S. D., May 1O.-Cham-

ABERDEEN, S. D., May 10.-Both
Democratic and Republican conven-

in this city this week, and politics
made slight ripple on the otherwise

NJ. P. Stroupe. of Aberdeen. and w. o.

ranks the Republicans will elect two of
the three delegates to the constitutional
convention, the Democrats have thought
best to name two candidates for their
ticket. Judge S. F. Brott, of Groton,
and L. 6. (Ordway) johnson were NOM
mated. and one of the two certainly
will be elected. Judge Brott is known
and respected throughout the district,
and will poll nearly the entire strength
of the Democratic vote, while Mr..
johnson has many enemies in the
party, and some prominent Republi-
cans will work harder to defeat him
than to elect their own nominees.

unanimously nominated delegate to the
constitutional convention at Sioux Falls.
1t will be remembered that Walworth

trail Dakota and the most popular man
in his county. Mr.. Couchman is ma
tive of Schabun county, New York, and
represented the district of which that
county forms part, in the New.
York state senate for two successive
terms; so he will prove no novice at
lawmaking. The Fifth district may
well feel proud of its minority delegate.

his present position.
