Dairyins in South Dakota.

Dairying in South Dakota has az
sunled such proportions, says the
Minneapolis Daily Journal, that the
state agricultural COLLEGE will insti-
tute selies of practical lectures on
the subject, and will instruct dairy
maids OF the state in the art OF butter
maxim. that will sell for thr,>. times
the price OF the article they nave been
producing. There has been IL very
remarkable growth i'll the creamery
industry in South Dakota this year,
and this move on the part OF the state
school is merely an indicate IL OF it's
strength. New creameries are being
erected in all the southern and east
erp COUNTIES, and are dotting many
townships. The number OF COWS is
rapidly increasing and their value is
growing, since they are productive OF
more income. The creamery idea and
diversified farming. which also is meet
ing with great favor now in the Dako-
tas as well as in Minnesota, will
change miehtily the AGRICULTURAL pros
poets OF the three states in a Very few
years. Indeed, the effect is already
to be plainly seen in any part of the
northwest where the one crop idea
has been abandoned a season or two,
i'll better buildings, more bank depos-
It's, more thrift in the towns. and an
air OF prosperity that wheat, alone,
does not bring i'll these times of over
production and consequent very low
prices.

THERE'S MILLIONS IN 1T.

There is big estate worth $4,000, 900,
that is now being looked after. 1t was
left by William Penn, and our fellow cit
izen, Mr.. D. F. McClatchey, merchant of
Marietta, and bon. William Penn Nc
Clatchey, Recorder of Chattanooga, are
direct descendants Of William Penn, and
these gentlemen are entitled to big share
OF the estate An attorney in New Jersey
is working up the evidence, and informs
Hon. W. P. McClatchey that there are six
heirs in that State, who are descendants
of William Penn. the great Quaker The
property includes 10000. 900 held by the
Bank Of England, and property in Penn.
sylvania worth over $50O00 900, part of
which is now occupied by the Pennsyi.
vania railroads big Philadelphia station.
The bank book on which the claim against
the Bank of England is based is in pos
session of Stephen Penn, a London brok
err, and is alleged to have been passed down
from the progenitor of the family.
The Essex county heirs allege that
| Stephen Penn obtained the book from
Mary Vyot, an aunt of Mrs. Sorrell, of
| Elizabeth, Il. j. This aunt, who was a
descendant of Penn, married French>
man, and the New Jersey Penns say that
at Der death, which occurred in 1871, the
bank book should have gone to Mrs. Sor-
rell. Stephen Penn, they allege, obtained
possession of the voucher wrongfully, and
has since drawn $500 600 interest on the
big deposit.
There are in all twenty four heirs to the
Penn millions, exclusive of Stephen, who
is not counted by the others, on account of
! his drawing interest on the $4,000, 900
bank deposit. Lawyers are now engaged
in pushing the claims of the New Jersey
descendants, and Stephen, it is said, will
be prosecuted il they are established, un.
less he shall divide the OO,OOO,OOO inter-
est he is alleged to have drawn.
While our worthy and esteemed towns
man, Mr.. D. F. McClatchey is not losing
any sleep over the matter, it is to be hoped
ne will get big slice OF the Penn estate.

"Four out of the eight members in

one-he went into the presidential
chair as gold standard man, all
though friendly to silver so long as
it can be kept upon equal purchas-
iag and debt paying power with
gold, and stated his position clearly
before the nomination, so it is use
less, if not childish, to curse and
abuse him now"

One OF the most enjoyable features of
the past week III society was the informal
tea given on Friday afternoon by Mrs.
John 7. Mcdonald Hare. complimentary
to Miss Dismukes of Nashville. The
spacious and picturesque home was never
more :lluring. The hours were from FIVE
to seven, and in spite Of the inclemency
OF the weather the young ladies that cons
s.itute the smart set" were constantly
coming and going during the aforesaid
hours, The prevailing colors throughout
the house were white and green. The
dining room was made beautiful by an
abundant use of ivy and white carnations.
The effect was completed by white wax
| candles tied with small green bows. Miss
Dismukes, who visited her amt, Mrs

UNJUST TAX.

Eds. JoURNAL.-The road tax sys-
tenn of this, as we'll as a great many
other sections of the country, Of per-
sonal service, is unsound as prin-
ciple. unjust in its operations, waste
full in it's practices, and unsatisfac>
tory in its results.
Some system should be devised,
and that at once, based npon prop
erty, and property owners should
not be exempt from road service on
account of age.
AS the case now stands some fam
lilies escape any road tax year after
year, all Of the members being eth
er TOO young or too old, yet they are
abundantly able, financially, to do
their share, and in nine cases out of
ten they use the roads more than
any one else, while their poor neigh
bors, tenants they may De, or poor,
|
half paid, half starved, wage earn
ers, who live just out side the city
limits, must leave their crops in a
critical condition, or their bench at
the work shop, three or four times
year, to answer to the whims and
convenience Of the road master to
work the public rocds in front Of the
rich mans property, while their
families are actually suffering for the
necessities Of life, and need every
dollar that he can earn, for their
support.
Better roads are desired and adj
vocated by everybody. There is no
protest against good roads from any
quarter. Every person who uses
public road, either tor business or
pleasure, is willing that some one
else shall do the work, or pay for the
| improvement. But think the peo-
! pie who ought to pay for the work
and improvemf mt, if on public roads,
are those who derive the benefit
from the Improvement, whether they
reside in or outside of the city limits.
| do not believe that it is right
nor just that the poor laborer should
r be saddled with the expense Of the
Improvement of our public ROADS for
. the benefit of others.
I ] believe there ought to be a
| special tax levied upon all property
D both in and cut Of the city, within a
/ radius Of one mile from the corpo~
b rate limits. Said money to be used
. for the improvement Of all the prin-
cipal streets in the city and all first
I class roads for a distance of one
mile from the city limits. | say
. again, let the people pay for the i'm
, provement of our public roads who
can afford to ride over them and
enjoy them. When that time comes,
we will have better roads than we
now enjoy under the present system,
and not till then.

Their Digestive Cordial is said to be the
most successful remedy for stomach troubles
ever introduced. 1t Immediately relieves
all pain and distress after eating, builds up
the feeble system and makes the weak

The fact is, foods properly digested are
better than so-called tonios The Cordial
not only contains food already digested, but
is digester OF other. foods. Food that is
not digested does more harm than good.
People who use the Cordial insure the di>
