Is This True d?

The Arlington Sun has been making
"raw cracks" about the Agricultural
COLLEGE lately and here is one of them:
1.-THE question OF putting a sugar
beet factory on the experimental farm
connected with the Agricultural col
lege at Brooklngs is being agitated by
a few papers of the state. A sugar
beet factory is just what is wanted in
this section OF the state, however, the
proposition to put one on the experi~
mental farm is not good one. The
experimental farm is not a paying in
stitution, and TO add another branch
to this institution would be so much
money thrown away"
The experiment station was not in
tended as a "paying institntion," but
it helps many young man and young
woman to work their way through
college and is therefore a great benefit
to the poorer classes. Then, there is
no good reason why a sugar factory
could not be made to pay as we'll if run
by the experiment station as it would
If placed in private hands On the
other hand there are numerous rea-
sons why the college could make the
factory pay better than it would il
managed and run by separate cor.
UOration.

The Agricultural College d.

The city was filled with people
Saturday and when the two cannon,
furnished by the government for the
college military department, were
drawn down Main street, strangers
wondered if the city was being folti-
fed. Besides the two ten. Founders
the college has $50 stand of arms and
accouterments. Lieut.. Leary now
has proper equipment to give more
satisfactory instruction in his de-
partment and the cadets will take
more interest in their drills.
There are several noticeable and
pleasing changes which have trans
pired during the past two years.
which, in this connection, we wish to-
call the attention OF those who have
children attending the Agricultural
College, viz: The students are Kept
busy from Monday morning until
Friday night. The farm, garden ami
shop work and the military drills
afford a variation alter the recita-
tions and nearly all the students
enter into some portion OF these lat.
ter instructions with as much zeal as
they do their recitations. 1t is
seldom you see college student
lettering idly about the streets, and
a visit to the college will repay any
one, for there you may find the young
men and young woman working like
beavers in the different industrial de-
partments, and the faculty enter into
the work with as much energy as the
students.
The South Dakota Agricultural
College is no play house, as some have
been led to believe. 1t is an institu-
tion which ranks first among the
state educational institutions, and the
lndustrlals afford development of the
mind and muscles which in alter years
will prove beneficial to every student
taking a complete course OF study.

Eastern kiekers.

Mr.. D. D. Nckerson, of volga, was.
q pleasant caller last Saturday. He
had just returned from a visit to his
old home in New York state and said
that land had deprecated in value
during the past few years fully $2S
per acre. The farmers in the locality
visited were kicking because western
beef brought two cents pound more
than home production in their market.
They say the northwest is making tho
east poorer every year

Enforce the Laws.


The outlaw is all enemy to the law
prohibiting murder.
The thief dispises the law prohibit
Ing theft.
The gambler would repeal the law
prohibiting the accomplishment Of
his purpose.
The pugilist would repeal the law
against prize-6ghting.
The lewd women and men who
enjoy the debauch would have the
law repealed prohibiting adultry.
Everyone of the above classes
would have the law, prohibiting the
sale of intoxicants, repealed. Many
Others who see the law violated every
day become discouraged and often
times think it might be we'll to 60
back to high license. 1t is not be-
cause they wish high license, but be-
cause they get disheartened. If the
prohibition law is to become fixture
it must be enforced the same as other
statutory provisions and the people
who have voted to establish the law
must necessarily lend helping hand
in convicting the violators Of the law,
as in all other cases. Enforce the
law

The Pleasure Party.

When the "party" found that they
would be compelled to work out their
fines on the public works of the city,
four Of them concluded to pay their
fines. II, o. Ronnlng could not "raise
the wind" and has been working
about the school house this week. 1t
IS a shame that Mr.. Ronning does not
"brace up" He is hard worker and
a peacabIe citizen when clothed in his
right mind and it ls hoped his past
and present experience may prove
beneficial to him as well as those who
were his associates at the time OF the

A REORGANIZATION Needed.

"The republican party of South
Dakota is sadly in need of re-organiz-
alton from A to- Il. Close observers,
of political events are agreed that
South Dakota republicanism has been
dominated too largely by an element
whose principal object was the per
sonal aggrandizement of limited
number OF the party's constituted
leaders. The welfare OF the masses
was considered only SO far as it
affected the political fortunes of those
constituting the party management.
The Journal is not lnclined-at
least we hope it is not inclined-to
register a "kick" at everything that
may not go to suit it's individual
tastes. The things OF the world will
come and 60 whether every one is
pleased or displeased. The politicians
will continue to ply their vocations so
long as there is q field in which they
can operate. But there are some
things which the common class OF
humanity has been able to forsee for
some time, but which certain pro-
fessedly sharp political manipulators
seemed not to comprehend until they
We're struck with good sized brick.
1t Is about time for the republicans
OF the state to get together on plane
of equality, They can do it if they
will. The great fry and the small
fry should get together. The former
must not attempt to swallow the
latter. There will oe music in the
air if they undertake it."-Redfeld
journal.
The above contains more of truth
than poetry and In our judgment
there Is no better field to begin oper-
ations than right here in Brookings
county.

Blizzard "Reminiscences.

1t is nearly twenty-one years since
Dakota had blizzard lasting seventy
two hours 1t commenced on the | 15th
of March, 1870, and ragged with
terrific fury until the evening of the
17th. Col. Moody. now United
States senator, was lost in the town
OF 4ankton and spent one night in an
old barn, being unable to find a
dwelling house on account of the
binding snow. 1t was in this storm
that Charles Greene and Willie Gray
were caught. Their oxen froze to
death. Willie Gray froze to death
and Greene was on the eprairie seventy
two hours, destitute of food, fire or
sleep. One haIf OF each of his feet
were amputated. Nothing equal to
that blizzard has been known by the
most ancient Observation-Disclosures
Press.

SUPREME COURT.
THURSDAY, Jan. 8.

THURSDAY, Jan. ..
The King VS.. John Kamakai and
KeIuhookano.- The greater part of
yesterday was consumed in securing
jury. Several jurymen were found
disqualified by reason of their &C
quaintance with the defendants and
the circumstances of the case, while
others were rejected for being in
Government employ. Many were
challenged peremptorily. The law
permits the defendant in cases where
the death penalty is involved to re-
iect twelve jurymen without assign
ing any reason.
A jury was secured about 3
| o'clock. After a short recess, the
trial proceeded. The Attorney Gen
eral gave the jury remarkably
clear, concise and forcible account
of the case that the Crown expects
to prove by the testimony.
It appears that the defendant
John Kamakaia and his wife, who
was afterward killed, were living in
small house at Waikiki, just be-
yond the place of James Campbell;
that few days before the tragedy,
three women went out to the defen-
dant's to fish, catch crabs, battle and
enjoy themselves generally. To as
sist the festivities and add joy to the
occasion, they carried three bottles
of gin, two of which they drank
for breakfast and the other was
hidden away, it is supposed by the
deceased. Its disappearance so en-
ragged her husband and excited
other members of the party that a
general fight ensued, in which the
woman received injuries of which
. she died.
, DR.. Rogers was sworn and testified
that he and DR.. Kimbal made an au.
topsy of the body of the deceased
There were some bruises, scratches
, and other marks, but nothing i'm
portant except large confusion on
: the forehead, apparently produced
a by heavy blow. The stomach was
found in congested state, and ex
hailed a strong odor of alcohol. The
brain appeared nearly normal. There
was no sign of injury by blow Oh
0 violence. The conclusion of the
q doctors was that death resulted from
conclusion of the brain, which was
already overloaded with alcohol
a The gin and the blow together pro
\ duced the fatal result.
The doctor was subjected to try
ing cross-examination by Mr.. David
r son for the defense, who showed
great proficiency in this branch o.
medical jurisprudence.
The Marshal and policeman ther
e testified to the circumstances O.
e finding the body and the arrest O
! the defendants.

THE DAILY
PROPERTY VALUATION AND
TAXES.

An important decision relating to
taxes will be found on the fourth
page. 1t enforces the rule that
husband is the lawful custodian CT
a wife's property, SO far as regards
taxes, and that the decision of the
Board of Tax Appeals is final. In
connection with this decision, we
copy some pertinent remarks from
the Hilo Record, which makes a
suggestion regarding the valuation
made of property, that it should be
for several years and not solely for
one year:
The Tax Appeal Board finished
its sitting here recently, and the
plantations have again been the
losers in the appeals. We think
that the way the Tax Appeal
Boards are made is entirely wrong.
Why should the Assessor have the
say who the two members of the
Board should be, and not those
who appeal have a voice In the
matter? How is it that men, who
are supposed at least to be all in
favor of higher assessments, are
always put on to the Appeal
Boards? We claim that it would
pc no more than just that at least
one man should be chosen by the
tax appealers. Then again the
Board should be composed of mer
only, who own a considerable o.
both real and personal property, OF
tax appeals from the high assess
ments of the Assessor. A man who
owns nothing should not be called
on to assess the value of property
He naturally would care but littl,
how much his richer neighbo
paid, as he himself has nothing t.
pay. x
The assessment of land values
at least, should be fixed by tn,
