To Visit south Dakota.

A Washington dispatch Of the
18th has the following in regard
to a probable visit Of President
Mckinley to South Dakota on
his northwestern trip about
October 14th: Captain J. H.
Hauser Of Aberdeen, S. D., had
an interview with the president
last evening for the purpose Of
inviting him officially, in case he
comes to the twin cities, to ex
tend his trip into South Dakota.
The president, in the fore part Of
the IN view, was doubtful
whether he could look favorably
upon the invitation on account Of
other engagements, but in the
end enough was said to leave the
impression upon Captain Haus
err S mind that the president
would visit South Dakota in the
event of his going to the twin
cities. Hauser has gone home
to arrange the program in the
different cities and map out the
full details Of the proposed visit,
SO that the president eau know
just how much time will be con
sumed by it. 1t is believed that
if South Dakota can arrange a
program which is compact and
does not involve too large an ex
penditure of time, the president
will take a train from Mime
apolis over the Hastings & Oak
ota and stop at Milbank, Web
ster, Groton, Aberdeen, Redtield,
Woonsocket, Mitchell Yankton
aud Elk Point. winding up at
Sioux City. The purpose in go
ing to South Dakota will be to
see as many as possible of the
regiment which has just return
ed from the Philippines.

Sisseton Banner:-Look out
for the lightning rod swindler.
Geo. Okeson, one Of our neigh
boring farmers, came near be-
ing bamboozled out Of S275 by
lightning rod agents the other
day. He was induced to sign a
rather ambiguous contract
which he understood provided
for the placing of numerous rods
on his buildings at a cost of only
1915, this amount being for the
labor Of putting up the rods, and
no charge was to be made for the
rods. The next day the men
came back to put the rods on the
buildings and were unloading the
same from their wagon when
John Ness happened to arrive
on the scene. Ness was shown
the contract, a copy Of which Geo.
had, and it didn' take him long
to discover the fraud. While
the rods were to be free, except
the 1919 for putting them up,
yet there was provision in an
obscure place, for the payment
Of a very eAorbitant price for
the points. When Mr.. Okeson
was led to "see the point he
with the aid of Ness promptly
drove the sWindlers from the
place. Farmers, beware Of the
lightning rod agent. When he
comes, ask no questions, but call
the dogs.

Building operations on Main

Of the Hawes store and the

up in very promising manner.

the travelling troupe Of ladies,
the Boston Boomers, and a

from among the yoang men Of
the city, took place last Tuesday
as advertised The Boomers
travel in their own car, and have
d canvas for enclosing the
grounds at places where there is
no regularly enclosed grounds.
The novelty of the game drew
considerable Of a crowd Of spec.
tators, and the Boomers made
it more than interesting for the
Milbank lads, winning the game
in. the first half Of the ninth in
ming by a score Of 10 to Ii.
That's a great mix-up in the
officers Of the South Dakota
regiment. The Organization did
some splendid work as soldiers
and made a record that both the
state and regiment may point to
with patriotic pride. 1t is to be
regretted that the home coming
was marred by quarrels among
the officers that led to arrests
and more or less bitterness. An
effort is being made to have the
matter amicably settled up and
thus permit the early mastering
out OF the regiment The boys
are fully entitled to this, us the
great majority Of them probably
have but little interest in the
small potato politics at the
bottom Of the whole matter.
