out the necessity of wit hdrawing
United States currency from circula-

to national banks. Has it done it?
Let US see-notwithstandin the fact
that half a dozen nations have gone
to the gold standard since that time,
which must have made a great de-
mand for the yellow metal-our gold
reserve is nearly $150,Oo0,000 and
no thought Of the danger Of being
compelled to issue bonds. La fact
it has beyn very seldom that our
treasury has been in a more substan-
tial position than now. And what
has become of the populists who
were saying that If Mckinley was
elected it merely meant a continu-
alton Of the Cleveland policy and a
continuation of bond issues ? Their
ignorance or dishonesty has been
proved at every turn Of the road.

The claim is made that more lum-
Der has been sold in South Dakota
this year then for any of the past
seven years. This claim certainly
holds good locally, for more lumber
has gone out of this town this season
than eve before, and more buildings
are going up in this vicinity than in
the old boom days and are of a far
more substantial character. The
sales of one lumber firm for the
month of May were Sc, 700 as against

The Building o
Parkston Advance.

In looking over batch of weekly
exchanges, it is a fact worthy of
note that more building is being
done this spring and summer than
for several years past. In is not
being done by the town people but
largely the farmers. Additions to
their residences are being made,
barns and sheds for their stock and
machinery are being built and
things put in good shape generally.
For several years past the people of
this state have been working hard to
get themselves free from debt and
by close attention to business they
have done so, as the records show
and nearly all business men will
testify. 1t is also a noticeable fact
that where many of the improvements
are being made, a good creamery is
located. They are the savior of this
country and should be patronized by
every farmer.

MID. d.Summer Carnival Tomorrow Night

Yesterday afternoon at 2:15 o'clock, as
a Dexter street car, in charge of Conductor
Patrick keenan, and Motorman James
Mclaughlin was on its trip north to
Saylesville, il collided with a tipcart
driven by George Petit, an elderly man.
capsizing the cart and throwing him to
the ground. The driver OF the cart was
rendered unconscious by the fall, and
pending the arrival of a doctor was taken
into Browns grocery store on Dexter
street. Conductor keenan, went in search
of doctor and succeeded in finding DR.
Kennedy at McGunnigle's drug store.
The doctor hurried to the scene and made
a casual examination of the mans in
juries and advised that he be taken to his
home Immediately.
The injured man was taken to his home
by Councilman Frechetts, and DR.. Ken
nedy accompanied them. Later In the
afternoon DR.. Cabana was called In con-
sultation. Towards evening Petit was
taken with violent hemmorages and expir-
ed about 7:15 o'clock last evening.
Medical Examiner French was notified
and assisted by DR.. Kennedy made an ex-
animation. The only external signs found
was q scratch on the back OF the head from
which small quantity of blood had oozed.
In the opinion OF the Medical Examiner,
this wound could not have caused Pettit's
death. The real cause Of his death can be
determined only by a post mortem ex-
animation. Medical Examiner French
said this case, in the external aspect, was
very similar to the Welch accident which
occurred few weeks ago.
MIR. Petit was driving a very spir-
tied horse in Q tipcart and had inst
emptied load OF stuff at the dumps at the
corner of Dexter and Crossman streets,
and was driving out of Crossman street to
Dexter street,
Instead OF driving close to the curbstone
it is supposed that in turning he drove
across the track in front Of the car which
was coming along at the usual rate OF
peed.
Conductor Patrick keenan,, who had
charge Of the car on the ill-fated trip, is
considered one of the most careful men
in the employment of the railroad com
pany, and this is the first time that he
has met with any semblance to an acci-
dent. James Mclaughlin, the motorman,
is new man, but was considered by the
man who "broke him in" as an unusually
competent man for new beginner, and
it is safe to presume, being new man at
the business, was very careful in his hand
ling of the car.
1t was learned later in the day that
Petit met with previous accident which
may or may not have some bearing upon
the, case. During the forenoon while
backing up to the dumping ground the
horse became unmanageable and the whole
outfit rolled down the embankment into
Sayles' lot.
