PREPARING FOR war.
The Governor Orders the Militia
Companies Recruited to War
Footing at Once.

military matters in South Dakota. In
instant response to the popular desire
Governor Lee has taken active meas
ures to put the troops If South Dakota
npon war footing. The twelve com
panies Of infantry in the state are in
very fine condition at present, due to
the unhagging energy and military
methods Of Col. A. s. Frost, the mill
tary instructor of the state. They are
in very much better shape than they
have been at any time in the history Of
South Dakota, but Of course they are
upon peace footing only, each COM
pany containing but the maximum
number required. fifty-two men. Anti
cipating movements at Washington the
governor has ordered that each COM
pany of the militia he recruited up to
100 men. The order was officially
issued through the adjutant generals
Office on Monday. When each COM
pany is recruited to the war limit they
will be examined and mustered into the
United States service BY a federal re-
cruiting officer who will probably be
sent to South Dakota for that purpose.
The presidents formal call for South
Dakota's quota of troops has not yet
been received, but will probably arrive
soon, when all the details and con-
ditions under which the volunteers are
to be taken into service will become
known. The First regiment will pro-
baby be made up largely Of the present
militia men of the state, recruiting
being done to fill the places of those
who fail to pass muster or who desire
to withdraw. The Second regiment
will be made up from new recruits who
have had no previous military training,
commissions being issued to energetic,
properly fitted men who desire to raise
companies for the service. South Da-
kota's share will be 80 small on the first
call that there is likely to be q large
number of disappointed applicants for
4 chance to fight. From nearly every
town in the state the governor is re-
ceiving offers Of enlistments and the
adjutant generals Office has for two
months been getting stacks Of applica-
tioLs.
There are among the young men of
South Dakota very many who have had
military training in the agri-
cultural college and the university.
They are an active and intelligent set
of young men and will be very valuable
in assisting the organization and dis
cipline Of the raw recruits.
The story was current that an effort
was being made at Washington by
South Dakota people to have the First
regiment stationed at Ft. Meade to
garrison the fort. This was disappoint-
ing to the boys, all Of whom desire to
90 to the front and may have an in
auence in deterring some from enlist
ing. The governor is using hisinfiusnce
10 prevent this. He has assurances Of |
The possibility Of organizing in the
Black Hills an independent regiment |
Of Black Hills men who are
practical Indian fighters and will glad

AppeIIate Court Decision.

One of the important decisions is in the
case of Greet Brothers VS.. Stella Brown,
a suit for damages. Greet Brothers own
ed and operated a laundry in Pittsburg.
Stella Brown was engaged as an employe,
was injured and sued for damages. The
court below awarded damages, which was
reversed yesterday. The syllabus of the
opinion is as follows:
Greet Bros. VS.. Stella Brown: Syllabus:
A person has the right TO carry on a
business which is dangerous either in it's
elf or nthe manner of conducting it if
Il is lawful and does not interfere with
Their lights of others. He may choose his
machinery and conduct the business in
the manner most agreeable to himself,
and the employee entering or remaining
in his service with knowledge of the dam
gerous character and risks of same, cam
not recover damages resulting from that
peculiar service.

CORDUROY BILL HELD
Is Bound Over in the sum of Five
Hundred Dollars

Corduroy Bill" was tried in Justice
Glenn's court yesterday for robbing old
man Bull of Clearwater of his watch on
the Second Street bridge one night last
week. The evidence showed that there
were two or three of them out together
having a time, and that while they were
gone Bull lost his watch. Corduroy Bill"
was seen with the watch by a number
of persons. He had it when Seth Old
field went across the bridge that night
on his way home. OIdfield saw that Bull
was in a helpless condition and told
"Bll'' to wait till he went and called a
hack. He went and telephoned central
police station and when he got back TO
the bridge Bill was gone and had left
Bull there alone. The watch has not
been seen since and "Bin' did not seem
able to tell what had become of it. He
was bound over to the district court in
the sum of $500 and viii probably be
given a trial tomorrow some time.

ORDINANCE FOR The PARK
Council Will Probably Pass One Next
Monday Night

City Attorney is getting up an ordinance
which. when finished, will probably pro-
vide that the new park be named Ross
Park. A good many citizens have sug-
gested that the park be named after the
present mayor, but Mayor Ross says that
there is no danger of the council doing
such a thing and if it does he would i'm
mediately apply the veto power He Of
fers the objection that the name Ross
Park is not euphonious at all and that
he doesn't want that name anyway.
When the ordinance is passed people
cannot:
Ride bicycles or drive anywhere on the
grass.
Sit on the bridge to fish or use it as
a trysting place.
Discharge fire arms anywhere in the
boundaries of the park.
Play baseball in the park on Sunday.
Ride a bicycle or drive faster than I'VE
miles an hour on the track.

sort of rubbish into the water under pen

WILL REFUND BONDS
County Will Float Its Rail-
road Indebtedness.
AT FIVE PER CENT
Save One Thousand and Fifty
Dollars a Year.

sedgwick county has out about $4,000
IN railroad bonds. OF these $4,000 are
Rock Island bonds. voted by the county,
and the balance bonds voted by the var
ious townships in the county, to different
railroads. Scarcely any of these bonds
bear as low d rate as ; per cent per
annum, and some OF the townships pay
as high as : per cent, making an average
of ga per cent, as near as can be esti-
mated The law says that such bonds
may be paid off any time the county or
township may be able and shall make the
demand upon the holders Of the bonds for
the paper. Or they may be refunded at
any time it can be done at lower rate Of
interest than that under contract.
The county commissioners have a prop
osition from Splitter & Co. of Toledo, O.,
to take up all these bonds at a per cent
rate. This will save to the county on the
$4,000 Rock Island bonds just $1,O50 a
year. The interest rate on these bonds
now is "a per cent. 1t is estimated that
the entire saving 10 the county by the
Time lllS JULIUS d. pau Hpuiu lteiSA nv
less than $4,000
The Toledo company also extends the
loan privilege 10 the townships in the
county The estimated saving to the
townships at the per cent rate would
be more than $1,000 per year, making a
total saving to the taxpayers of the coun-
ty of $1,000 per year.
1t is probably a conservative estimate
to say that the entire saving to the coun-
~ and townships at the > per cent rate
would be $50 600. The commissioners are
now at work on the proposition to refund
the county bonds as soon as the necessary
arrangements can be made. There is no
doubt that the entire issue of railroad
bonds now out viii be taken up and re-
funded on the proposition made by the
Toledo firm. The fame of the Kansas
wheat crop has gone out to the great good
of all Kansas RI will save half as much
money as it brings in.
