A South Dakota Breeze.

Mr. EDITOR. ~
am sojourning in the part of
the state, known as the garden
spot of South Dakota lower Brule
and upper Chas Mix county-a
range of hills known as the Bijou
hills extend for distance of eight
miles east and west near the
county line. Coming south from
Cham berlain (the terminus of
Chicago, Milwaukee a. ST Pual
rrilroad) | passed through the gap
in the hills, about mile in ex-
tent. which has been POLITICALLY
named. ''Brule's South Window"
a broad expanse of waving corn
fields lay before me, hundreds of
acres in extent. The land slopes
gently towards the Missouri river
from the hills and the picture is
simply grand. As far as the eye
can see nothing but velvety past
ures and immense fields of grain
and corn meet ones sight
The farmers devote their time to
raising cattle and hogs. AT the
present time haying is in full
blast ! visited farm (known as
the Ham farm upon the river
where five men handled all the hay
from 1000 acres without using a
fork only upon the stack. 'Tis all
done by machinery They grind
all feed, and shred the corn for
1000 head of cattle by using a IT,
horse power gasoline engine,
Having been invited to spend the
day here, we were treated grandly;
feasted as only one can be upon a
farm where delicious cream, spring
chickens and good butter are in
evidence. After dinner we we're
taken over the farm. An eight
inch artesian well furnishes water
upon the upper range; one cattle
barn that holds 600 head of cattle
corn cribs that hold 1900 bushels
of corn, were among some of the
interesting features upon this
mammoth ranch The prairies
are as green as in spring, owing to
an abundance of rain during the
summer. The far reaching
drought of the present season does
not seem to have found South
Dakota, or at least this portion OF
it.

The roads are "a thing of beauty
and Joy forever"--so level and
hard. and | may add free from
dust. One would think that South
Dakota roads were made especially
for the cyclist.

of small means as South Dakota.
Cattle can Craze all winter upon
natural cured grasses or roam at
large in the immense corn fields.
Other places of interest I've
visited are Ward Academy, an in
stitution under the auspices of the
Congregational church. This col
lege is nineteen miles from the
nearest railroad point and is in
very hourishing condition, and
large creamery, which is one of
the thriving industries of the
country, having capacity of
5000 pounds of milk daily, and
being patronized by the farmers
for radius of ten miles Land is
worth all the way from $40 to $50
per acre.
The spiritual welfare of all is
well looked after, there being
churches of various denomina-
tions. The educational system of
the country speaks well for the
people. And now last but not by
any means the least feature of this
delightful country is the hospital
ity of the people. They fairly
overwhelm one by their great
kindness.

the head Of industrial interests.
''The tone of this convention" he
said in concluding, clearly indicates
that the Negro will succeed as busi-
ness man in proportion as he learns
that manhood and WOmanhOOd are
qualities of his own making, and that
no external forces can either give or
take them away. 1t demonstrates that
intelligence, punctuality, industry and
integrity are the conquering forces in
the business and commercial world, as

PRESIDENT WASHINGTON'S ELOQUENT
Appeal For Sterling Worth
and Citizenship On to
Richmond in 1902.

Chicago, u.-(SpeciaD-The second
annual session Of the National Negro
Business League opened in this city.
Delegates are present from over thirty
States.
President Booker Z. Washington in
his opening address said in part: ''As
a race we must learn more and more
that the opinion Of the world regard
ing us is not much Influenced by what
We may say OF ourselves or by what
others say Of us, but it is permanently
influenced by actual, tangible, visible
results. The object lesson Of one hon
est Negro succeeding magnificently in
each community in some business or
industry is worth a hundred abstract
speeches in securing opportunity for
the race.
In the South, as in most parts Of
the world, the Negro who does some
thing and possesses something is re-
spected by both races. Usefulness in
the community where we live will con-
Stitute our most lasting and potent pro-
lection.
I'VE want to learn the lesson Of
small things and small beginnings. We
must not feel ourselves above the most
humble occupation or the simple hum
ble beginning. If our vision is clear,
our will strong, we will use the very
obstacles that often seem to beset us
as stepping stones to a higher and
more useful life"
The enrolment of the members pres
ent was not completed at the first ses-
sion, but the hall was crowded and 200
of those present were visitors in Chi
cagO. Pictures and some of the pro
ducts of Negro concerns decorate the
walls, as evidence that the black man
IS rising above the cotton plantation,
his first field of labor in this country.
Pictures Of brick blocks, factories, liv-
cry stables, farms and shops Of every
description owned by Negroes in many
different States of the Union are in the
collection, but the greater evidence OF
the Negroes development is the men
taking part in the deliberations Of the
sessions. They are clean cut, we'll
dressed, intelligent, and have put a
business method into the organization

THE EVENING SESSION.
At the evening session Mrs. Albreta
NJ. Smith told about the achievements
of the Business WOman'S Club, and
Charles Banks read an excellent paper
on Merchandising" he being the pro-
prietor of a large general store at
ClarksdaIe, Miss, which grew from a
trade of $1,000 to the carrying OF
a $4,000 stock, the ownership OF $780,.
900 worth Of real estate, and a yearly
business in general goods and cotton
of over $4,000. On the subject, ''The
Grocery Business" ". o. Murphy, Of
Atlanta, Ca, told how he and his
father had built up a business of $3O.-
COO a year, and he hoped and expected
his son would raise it TO 100000.
An interesting feature Of the even
ing was the address Of Judge W. W.
Gibbs. United States Consul to Mada-
gasca, who traced his career from
slavery to that of representing his
country in a foreign land. f. d. Pat
tersOn, of Greenfield, Ohio, carriage
manufacturer, and Martin Ferguson,
of Jacksonville, Fla, a liVeryman also
spoke.
Perhaps there was no clearer or
more convincing illustration OF this
than the declaration of Mr.. Ferguson,
delegate from Jacksonville, Fla,
who conducts one Of the largest livery
stables in the South. He told Of his
experience as a young man trying TO
make q fortune. He had enough money
to carry him within thirty or forty
miles of Jacksonville, and he walked
the rest of the way. He reached the
CITY with 10 cents in his pocket, and,
like Benjamin Franklin, on arriving at
Philadelphia, bought rolls and bread.

THE law enforcement declaration
OF principles denounces as 'false
the statement OF the TRIBUNE that
the issue at the coming spring
election is for the prohibition OF
the liquor traffic, because we we'll
know that the saloons are permit
ted by the state laws to sell liquor,
and that nothing short OF statute
enacted by the state Legislature
itself would be practicable to pro-
hibit them from selling such
liquors, and that as long as they
comply with the law, their busi
ness is legal, and is entitled to the
same protection that any other
lawful avocation is entitled to.
This declaration is made in the
face OF the fact that letter was
read at meeting of the Good
Citizens League, written by one
of the leading attorneys of Colo
rado, giving an opinion to the
effect that any city council in the
state had legal rigbtto refuse to
grant licenses il they chose SO to
do. Consistency. thy name is not
