Baker and Harvey Gunderson, met at
the Soldiers Home last Monday and
organized by electing A. L. Van Osdel,
president, n. c. Nash, secretary, and

tion upon the fourth ballot. DIR. Stew
art received two votes on the first ballot.
Upon being informed of his election
and asked as to when he could assume
charge Col. Lucas wired that he
thought he would be ready 10y April lst.
The other appointments will be made
after Commandant Lucas arrives. The
board then looked over the Home,
grounds, etc, looking to making some
improvements and building some new
cottages.
Wednesday the board took up the
complaints made by some veterans who
had been discharged and who are seek :
ing to bereinstated. At time of going
to press, Thursday afternoon, the re-
suit of the hearing has not been an
nouuced.
Commandant Lucas will be no novice
in the management of the Home, having
been it's first commandant and serving
in all about five years. He always en-
joyed the work and resigns the posi-
tion of register of the U. S. land office
at Chamberlain to accept this.

a -Four Year old Chi,d Lost.

At Pringle last Monday the four year
old Child of Sam Mc.Adam wandered
away from home and became lost. MIR.
McAdam was in the timber cutting
wood and his wife thought the little one
had gone to him, but afterwards found
that it had not been seen since it had
left the house. A searching party was
then instituted but not until evening of
the next day was the dead child found,
being about four miles from home. It
probably died from exhaustion and
cold, though the weather was hardly
cold enough to freeze The family
is grief-stricken over the terrible af.

Either our friend, Henry Monheim,
of Lead, has changed his ways, or has
been associating with smallpox, or the
Pioneer-Times type setting machine

this conclusion from the following

Henry is going to move to Custer

Look After the BoNs

"When temperance lecturers tell their
stories about the army of drunkards
marching through the land SO many
Thousand strong, the remark is often
made that they are exaggerating
Some say, too, that nothing can be
done for the drunkard. let them die Off
and be done with them. That might
be all right if we were not making
more all tho time. and of that Rapid
City is doing her full share. Many
would be surprised if they knew whose
boys are now starting-and some of
them already have Il good start-on
the road the drunllard travels. But
the strangest thing of all is the apathy
shown by the parents of these boys,
and if parents don't care why should
others? Simply because they have
souls, and ii allowed to go on the
downward way will drag others with
them whose parents do care. Some
empty their phials of wrath upon the
saloons and the officers. n portion of
the blame should be laid at their doors
to be sure, bnt it is some where outside
the saloons that much of the blame
should be laid. Minors could be found
off by themselves iii c!iloes with in-
ltoNicating liquors secured for them by
some one else ii amy ore wanted to do
SO. That occurs nightly in Rapid City.
and parents whose boys spend their
! evenings away from home would save
themselves heartaches in future years
| if they did little investigating for
themselves. Nothing good can be said
of the places that entice the boys. and
they should not be allowed to exist.
but if the boys we're looked after more
at home. if the right kind of amuse
ments we're provided. il more interest
was taken in them and their work.
there would be fewer going the pace
that kills eventually. Some parents in
Rapid City would be grief stricken if
they could hear the language used by
their young sons-language that is an
Indication of the foulness within Rap
i'd City Journal.
The foregoing article from the Rapid
City journal is applicable right here in
Hot Springs. No longer ago than last
Friday two youths of Hot Springs
scarcely yet in their teens were reeling
about the streets drunk. True they
were not long upon the streets, but
they were there for time-long
enough so that their condition was
discovered by many citizens. This is
deplorable thing. and n matter that the
citizens can not afford to permit. The
parents of the boys who are going dow
hill in that manner may be ignorant o.
the fact, but they should not be, and il
there is no other course to pursu,
the boys should be sent to the reform
school. Such actions are too demoral
izing to other children to be permitted
We understand that several sucl
youngsters do not go to school, bu
are loafirg about, going to their ruiz
and taking along with them all tn,
children they can influence. Some
thing should be done by parents look
l.;ng to. the correction of such adeplora
BILE example among the children of The
town.

TIA REPRESSION OF ANARCHY

The atrocious crime of the anarchist Czolgosz has aroused the people of the United States to high pitch of excite ment and indignation, and called forth avery general demand for more severe and especially those directed against the person of the president The out cry is natural and commendable of the patriotism of the people, but faliacions in the idea entertained that assassina- tion can be stopped by statute, or the anarchist dcterred by the severity of the punishment which awaits the com mission of hls crime against the state Every European nation has drastic laws against anarchism, and treason against the crown or established gov ernment has much wider interpretA- tion than in this country. while death is the penalty in many countries for at. tempts on the lives of rulers or mem bers of reigning families; yet where the laws are harshest there anarchism, or nihilism, most grows and Is only thwarted in its foul purpose by the iron hand of military despotlsm and the extreme measures for the protec- tinn nf tha Gnvaraion
 Such policy of repression IS i'm. possible in the United States it Is in- compatable with our republican form of government, and opposed to every principle of democracy No doubt an effort will be made during the approach ing session of congress to enact some legislation aimed to suppress anarchism and the avowal and dissemination of ideas and opinions hostile and preju- dicial to the government, and what is much more important, to amend our immigration laws so as to exclude from this country the emissares of anarchy and other dangerous tenets
 As to surrounding the person of the president with any further safeguards thun have heretofore been employed, there is little likelihood of much being accomplished. The president will con- tinue to hold public receptions, but the free movement of the attending multitude might well be abridged. The assa ssination of President Mckinley in the manner it was accomplished should never have been possible. No person should be allowed to approach the pres

The autopsy performed upon the body of President Mckinley disclosed two important facts First, that the abdominal wound was necessarily ia atl; and second, that the examination of the wound attending the operation immediately after the shooting was in complete in not having disclosed the injury to the kidney by the bullet, Ii is hard to excuse the shortcomings of the attending surgeons and physicians, reputed to be among the foremost in their profession, or to reconcile the op- timism revealed in their bulletins stat. ing the condition of their patient. Public confidence in the proficiency of modern surgery has been considerably shaken.

The announcement made that Eli hu Root has been selected for secretary of state to succeed Mir. Hay will meet with very general approval. The ap- pointment was of President Roose- veelt's own motion, and It Is said Mir. Root has accepted the proffered post. Lyman J. Gage will be asked to remain at the head of the treasury department but there Is some doubt of his comply ing with the presidents request. It Is not likely that any changes will take place Tn the personnel of the cabinet for some time, probably until congress has reassembled, and Secretary Hay may remain ID the state department long enough to conclude the negotia- tions now pending for new treaty with Great Britain, designed to clear the way for the construction of the isthminn canal. The selection Of Messrs. Root and Gage to be members of his cabinet will be accepted by the country as assurance that President Roosevelt will iultil his pledge to con. tinue the policies of the Mckinley ad, ministr ation, and 1t will at least have the effect of allaying any fears enter

Phoenix s Eastern Railroad

A company has been organized in Phoenix to buiid railroad from that city to Benson, by the way of Florence, to be known as the Phoenix & Eastern, the distance being about 25o miles. MT. Frank NJ. Murphy, president of the Santa Fe, Prescott & Phoenix, is at the head of the organization, and the directorate of the two roads will be much the same. The surveying party in charge of Mir. Leroy Orton, which left Florence two weeks ago, is now in the neigbborhood of Kelvin, thirty miles east of here, and has run very satisfactory line that distance. It will hug the Gila river, and will htve no heavy grades. At the box ctnyon of the Buttes, where the river runs through a gorge and makes a bead, two bridges will be built across the Gila, which at this point is less than 150 feet wide, with solid rock abutments. This is really the only difficult problem on the proposed road and Mir. Orton has solved it to his en-
 tire satisfaction. Mir. Murphy is now in Europe, but will return next month with ample capital for the entire con struction, which will be pushed from both ends. Florence Tribune

WILLIAM MCKINLEY.

In the long line of distinguished Americans who have passed frem life there was probably none more widely mourned than is the late President Mckinley The profound impression winch his d cath has caused throughout the civilized world and the expressions of regret and sympathy that have come from the capital of every nation ot Europe, evidences the high opinion en- tertained of him as statesman, and Is significant of the far'reaching intiu' ence which his administration has pro. duced.
 While the policies which President Mckinley initiated and developed met with strenuous opposition at home, 1t Is very generally admitted that they have immensely increased the prestige of the United States and have been strong factor in enlarging our commerce and in giving opportunity and confidence to business enterprise.
 But probably the most beneficial ef- feet of President McKinley's admins tration was in allaying sectional strife and restoring harmony between the North and South. Mir Ackinley's course as president has been eminently conciliatory and prompted by n desire to give due recognition to the claims of widely separated sections of the repub- lie and of diverse interests, and in this direction much has been accomplished.
 Above all President Mckinley was sn American, pure in his private life, lofty of purpose, dignitied without be- jag ostentatious, and strongly demo- cratic His good qualities were espe- cially conspicuous in his home life. His devotion to his wife was sublime, and his fulfiilment of every obligation as a citizen marked him as man of the highest integrity and nobleness of mind.
 William McKinley's name will live pre-eminsnt in history and his memory will be cherished ny patriotic people.

ident as Czolgosz did. The fact that the hand of tue assassin was covered should have made him an object of s,is- picion and search, At the time when the greatest vigilance was demanded the detectives present were direlict Tn their duty.
 Surrounding the person of the chiei magistrate at all tunes with cordon of troops or secret service men Is imprac- ticable, especially for the reason that 1t Is extremely distasteiul to the type of men who are called to fill the highest office in our government. It was dep recated by President Mckinley, and President Roosevelt has already shown his opposition to any extraordinary measures for his protection. To adopt them would be to acknowledge that our republican form of government Is | failure.
 Deplorable us is the death of President Mckinley it will occasion few changes in our laws and none in the relations of the president to the people. The United States will continue to be tn freest and best government on earth. and her people tho most enlightened and contented.

WHEN FATHER RODE THE GOAT.

The house is full of arnica And mystery profound; We do not dare to run about Or make the slightest sound; We leave the big piano shut And do not strike a note; The doctOr's been here seven times Since father rode the goat. He joined the lodge week ago Got in at a. m, And sixteen brethren brought him
 home,
 Though he says he brought them, His wrist was sprained, and one big
 rip
 Had rent his Sunday coat There must have been lively time When father rode the goat. He's resting on the couch to-day And practicing his signs The hailing signal, working grip, And other monkeyshines; He mutters passwords meath his
 breath,
 And other things he'll quote They surely had an evenings work When father rode the goat. He has gorgeous uniform, All gold and red and blue, A hat with plumes and yellow braid, And golden badges, too, But, somehow, when we mention it, He wears a look 80 grim We wonder if he rode the goat Or if the goat rode him.
