Many Interesting Facts and Figures
Touching Educational Matters There.
In his response to Mayor Hargen's
address of welcome before the South
Dakota Educational Association Prof.
A. j. Smith, OF Parker, made use of
some facts from statistics which are
interesting, says a Hot Springs dis
patch. He congratulated that section
of the state for its enterprise and liber
ality by saying that the five counties
which comprise the Black Hills region

WILL TOUR THE STATE.

South Dakota Regtmental Band From
the Philippines wiz Give Concerts.
We learn from the Madison Sentinel
that Bandmaster Halstead contem-
plates making q tour of the state with
the South Dakota regimental band
when the regiment returns from the
Philippines, and it is to be hoped that
arrangements can be made to have the
band appear in Mitchell. In reference
to the matter the Sentinel says: "Louie
White has received letter from
Frank Halstead, bandmaster of the
South Dakota regiment, under date OF
June 80, in which Frank states that he
contemplates taking his First regiment
band on ten days concert tour around
the state as soon as the regiment is
mustered out. My band numbers
twenty-five men. Well give you
splendid program. Following the con-
cert could give you a dance program
with an excellent orchestra of twelve
pieces, if thought advisable. Should
like to include Madison on our tour.
AS our expenses will be very large,
state what you could guarantee me for
this attraction and il can possibly see
my way clear from financial stand
point, shall be pleased to bring the
band to Madison Well, Frank Hal
stead's band ought to get all it asks for
in Madison. We want the band by all
means. Manager White should start
guarantee ticket sale paper at once"

Is EVIDENTLY SUSPICIOUS.

The Milwaukee Road Making Prepare
tions to do Business in Chas. Mix.
According to the Sioux City Journal
the Milwaukee road is getting ready to
do some work in Chas. Mix county.
The Journal says:
A. G. Baker, of Chicago, an assistant
engineer OF the Chicago, Milwaukee &
St. Paul Railway company, passed
through Sioux City yesterday with q
corps of engineers on the way to Chas.
Mix county, South Dakota. The party
was fully equipped with field instru-
ments and camp outfit, and appeared
to be ready for long campaign. Not
one in the party would talk at the Mil
wsukee station during the transfer
from the Chicago train to the Yankton
train, but an official, who did not want
to be quoted. said Mr.. Baker would run
go many surveys in Chas. Mix county
that President Jim Hill would have 8
hard time finding a place for his line
from Yaukton to the mouth of the
White river. He said: zone line will
be surveyed from Yankton into the
Bijou Hills, another from Tyndall to
Wheeler, and there may be so many
more that the threshing machines will
be kept lodging"
1t is not unlikely, according to the
view of the railroad men, that the
Milwaukee and Great Northern have
settled down into strong game of
bluff, similar 10 the one played earlier
in the year in western Iowa by the
North western and the Illinois Central,
and that the visits OF Prsident Roswell
Miller and James J. Hill to South
Dakota last week were to arrange for
the preliminary moves.

AMEND THE CONSTITUTION.

I The great objection Of The :'Gradu
ated Income Tax idea is, that th,
~ Dstitn on Of the United Stat would
have 10 be amended before it could be
come law, and that the Constitution
ia too sacred to be touched.
The Constitution is not q political
Bible. The Constitution is but law
and can be amended, changed, or an
entirely new one constructed, just as
States can and do cheuge their con-
stitutioua,
The Declaration Of Independence
cannot be amended. There are no
laws nor form Of law 10 it. 1t treats of
principles and rights only. The Con-
stitution is compilation of law to en-
force the principles laid down in the
Obi Of Rights"
The Fathers OF our country had no
scruples about amending it. The first
Consti u'ion that was adopted was in
effect until the present one was ratified
to make "more perfect union' was
abolished. Another Constitution was
framed AMI adopted in it's plce, and
this was soon amended. And sgain,
after the Civil War,it was again changed
by other additions. II our Constitution
had been amended in 1910 the war of
1S61-5 would not have occurred.
