I: appears from the report OF
CAPTAIN Coke that the collection
from the 1st of April, 1891. to
April, 1895, amounted to S166.s
994 go, an average of $41,49o, 63.
Now the fact that the amounts
collected per year by Secretary
Coke were less than the amounts
collected by Secretary Cooke and
Secretary Thompson ought not
to be considered as any evidence
of unfaithfulness on the part OF
Secretary Coke, for the reasons
thai it is accounted for by the
increase of the license tax and
the large extension for the IN
surance. And this applies also to
the collections made under Col
onel Saunders administration
During the early year Of his ads
ministration the insurance ousls
ness was insignificant as com
pared with what it is now, anc
during the last six years OF his
administr alton the license ta1
was only $50 a year for all com
panies, whereas during Secretary
Thompson's administration it il
$3.50 a year for life companie'
and 5000 a year for fire com

These funny little fights al

These funny little fights all
over Porto Rico have become so
interesting it is almost a pity that
they are to be stopped. Some
sailors have lately been occupying
the lighthouse on Cape San Juan
and keeping the lamps lighted for
the benefit of the ships outside.
The Spaniards attacked them in
force but the ships started in and
shelled the S~paniards, who re-
treated with heavy loss. Whether
any definite purpose is served by
these isolated engagements is not
apparent, but they are probably
good for practice and they serve
to keep up the excitement. 1t will
be dull when we have 20 more
news of this kind.

Creamery Management.

In an'artic;e on creamery and SKIM
ing stations two weeks since the GRAPHIC
pointed out the fact that there was as
wide a difference between creamerics as
business enterprises as there was in any
other line Of business; that while one
creamery might be run at a profit an
other under exactly similar conditions
except as to management might be run
at an actual loss to the patrons. One Of
the most interesting pap ers read at the
recent Minnesota Darymen's associa tion
was that Of creamery management, from
which wa made the following excerpts
as being in liue with the statement
made by the GRAPHIC in the article re.
ferrpd to:
The secretary upon whom a large pOr-
tion Of this work deyOlves and by whom
the bulk Of the business OF the creamery
must be transacted, should he man
who will attend to this work first. and
his own last.
On every hand we see financial
wrecks, mercantile wrecks, bank wrecks,
farm wrecks. private creamery wrecks,
that stand as monuments to poor and in
discreet management.
Why should our noted cooperative
creameries be an exception. True it is
next 10 impossible for such an organ liza
ton to bankrupt, as its stability depen
upon the entire neighborhood. But
because it cannot easily become IN
solvent, it does not necessarily follow,
that it is always properly managed.
Three-tenths OF one pound of butterfat
to the hundred weight of milk may 20
unnoticed into the skimmilk vat, which
Z would make OIL an average run OF 2O,OOO
lbs. per day yearly loss Of over 1000.
a few similar loses. which might seem
insignificant to the unObssrvlng, could
easily amount to over three or four
thousand dollnrs per year which would
be scarcely probable in private cream
cry, for this loss would be from the
pocket OF one man, and he would be very
apt to watch for these small leaks that
/ in tho course of time would make such Il
large aggregate. Hence the necessity of
one mans being responsible for the gen
icral running Of the creamery"
The secretary and general manager
should not only be a competent book
keeper and Of sufficient business ability
to buy the supplies t, the BEST advantage
and market the butter for every cent
A there is in it and escape losses, but more
than all he shonld be as familiar with The

The Sioux Falls Argus is wrong on so
many things that it is refreshingly di.
lightfui to find it right on anything. We
refer to its position on the course of
study submitted by the committee Of ten
at the recent educational association in
Sioux Falls. The Argus Leader holds
that the high school course should not
be preparatory to college course but
complete IN itself. In that not over one
pupil III ten from high school attends
a college. The Argus-Leader is ever
lastingly righr, and the taxpayers will
come to sec it in that way before many
years. The modern high school gives a
pupil a smattering OF everything, from
drawing to Greek and sends him out
commencement day complete in nothing
except in conceit. If the South Dakota
Educational association wants high
school course of study prepared that will
do business let them select a committee
OF ten from banks. newspaper offices,
business houses, law offices and from
other practical every day sou:ces. After
