THE LIMIT x70ps N.

Upon Investigation it is discovered
that the county can not legally issue
the amount of warrants necessary for
the purchase of seed wheat as contem:
plated by the commissioners, for the
farmers who applied, the limit having
already been reached for the legal is-
suance upon the general fund. The
total assessment of the county is s2,4OO-
600, and the commissioners are restrict
ed to five per cent. of that amount, or
an issuance of $4,000, against which,
as we get it from the county treasurer.
$4,000 has already been drawn. This
would very plainly preclude the possi-
bility of legally issuing the amount
that would be required for the purchase
of seed grain as contemplated. II this
matter is as we understand it, the sit
uation is grave indeed, and some care
full financiering must be required for
awhile to justify matters.
A detailed statement of the condition
of the county will be published April
first, as the auditors books will prob
ably be fully posted by that time.

DAM.MIN0 THE RIVER AND
CORRESPONDENTS.

The Edgemont Express wakes hot In
the shape Of double loaded column
article because some desperate news
giver to the eastern dailies has sent in
something regarding the big irrigation
ditch being constructed over near there
which did not state that the dam, ditch
and all, were near that place, and were
not near Hot Springs. We commend
the Express for its vengeance and its
assurance that consistency ceases to
be a jewel" The canal should not be
mentioned without reference to Edge
mont. Anybody who would do such q
mean thing is too ungrateful to
breathe free ozone. The Express
closes its creditable roast with the fol-
lowing eloquent words:
"All those who wish to take up a
claim along this ditch must come to
Edgemont to do so. We will give you
a hearty welcome, and when we have
grown tired from hard weeks toll
we can take the Burlington express af.
ter breakfast Sunday morning and go
over to Hot Springs and bathe in its
medicine mineral curative waters ma
ture's own remedy coming back much
invigorated and ready for another
weeks work along the ditch built by
the EdgemOnt Canal company"

Perry Heath in his Omaha Bee Wash
ington correspondence gives the fol-
lowing very interesting and encourag-
ing statement concerning the National
sanitarium for which Congressman
Lucas has introduced bill and is
working like q beaver to secure:
Representative Lucas made an ar.
gument today before the house COM
mittee on public lands in support of his
bill providing for irrigation and re-
claimation of arid lands, for the protec-
lection of forests and utilization of
agricultural, horticultural and pastur-
age lands. Captain Lucas also made
an argument before a subcommittee of
the house military committee in sup
port Of his bill for the establishment Of
. soldiers sanitarium at Hot Springs,
South Dakota. He was strongly sup.
ported in his argument by Gen. Averill
of New York. Gen. Black of Illinois,
ex-commissioner of pensions, who is
chairman Of the subcommitte, is an ar
dent advocate of the bill and there is
every prospect that it will be favorably
reported"

The STAR is in receipt of the The Ma
donal Liberal Educator, published at
Cheyenne, Wyo., in which is marked
item in reference to the national con-
vention of the National Liberal Arts
and Science League. The national di-
rector states that it has not been de.
cided where the convention will be
held, but says that among the places
mentioned Hot Springs seems to be the
most suitable, but they desire to hear
from any city desiring the convention.
The convention is to consist of two
weeks lessons and lectures in art and
science, and is the first convention Of
the kind ever held. It will be held In
July. The STAR believes it is safe in as
suring the National Director that they
may have the use Of the Chantauqua
pavilion for their convention, which
We imagine would be precisely what
they desire for their meeting, and It
strikes Us that It would be q good idea
Tor them to hold their meeting imme-
diately following the Chautauqua as
sembly, which will adjourn about July
"a. The grounds would have tents all
in order and those of the N. 8. A. 8. L.
Who desired could rent the tents for
camping purposes at nominal price;
the pavilion would cost them nothing.
That they would enjoy their fortnights'
convention In this city would be an as
sred fact, and they viii be heartily
welcomed hare.

Who has converted busy factories into

what has wrought the ChAngef Who is

The Sioux City Journals Pierre cor
respondent obtained a full statement
from Gov. Sheldon regarding the Ft.
Sisseton reservation buildings which he
sold, in answer to the charges which
have been made against him. It was
unnecessary for the governor to make
any statement, for those who know him
never for a moment believed such silly
charges he had sold valuable
buildings to some of his friends for lit
tie or nothing, and otherwise discrim-
mated in favor of some of his Day
county friends at the expense of the
government, or the state. The COVER.
nor's explanation is plain statement
of the case, and he did just what any.

LEGAL BLOW AT PROHIBITION.

A Pierre special to the Sioux City
Journal states that ''the supreme court
has handed down a decision In the
state vs.. the Sioux Falls Brewing COM
pany which leading lawyers claim vir-
tually repeals the prohibitory law so
far as it affects beer. However this
may be, it is evident that It will ut least
interfere greatly with its enforcement.
The decision is that while the law pro-
hibits the manufacture and sale Of
malt liquors, It does not specify beer,
and the Intoxicating qualities must be
proved before conviction under the
law" Judge Fuller rendered the opin.
ion, which is contrary to that Of the
lower court.

Lucas Is HUsTLINs.

Reports from Washington indicate
that Congressman Lucas has quite fa-
vorably Impressed the military commit
tee before which he recently argued in
favor Of the sanitarium bin. He pre-
sented General Averill's reports upon
our soldiers home for the past three
years, the analysis Of the water, average
Temperature for three years, explained
the altitude, showed what q large per-
centage Of rheumatism there was in
the various soldiers homes, and pre-
sented DIR. jennings report Of the
Leavenworth detail that tested the wa
ters here. Gen. Averill also made q
very strong argument in favor Of es-
tablishing the sanitarium at this place.
photographs OF the city and its attrac-
tive surroundings were exhibited, 'snd
the committee seems very favorably
impressed with the proposition. One OF
two, however, urge that this is 30 far
away that the expense of transporta-
tion would be great; also that the gov
'ernment is unable financially to estab-
lish such an institution at the present
time. The objection is democratic.
Congressman Lucas believes that he
will be able to to obtain favorable re-
port from the committee, in which
event its passage is possible.
