Says an Exchange: 1t will soon
be the season when the soap man,
the range man, the cheap grocery
man and the fakir in all his numer-
GUS guises-but still the fakir-will
be here. He comes with his plausible
tale OF cheap prices. long time and all
the balance of his rot..but let us hope
that the crop of suckers" will be
light this season. Your home deal
ers who comes to you with an ad-
vertisement of their wares through
the columns OF your home paper will
duplicate any prices the .fakir will
make and give you better goods.
Give your local dealer the first
chance and nine times out of ten you
will save money by dealing with
them. The only way to build up a
country or town is by the dealers
advertising their goods and the peo-
pie dealing with them and each
other and keeping the money at
home. The various branches of
Industry r so closely linked to
gether that every dollar put into
circulatjon..by the producer and con-
sumner, goes through many hands
and cancels many debts. If sent
away it is taken out of the home
circulation and helps neither you or
your neighbor. Whenever you see a
community where they p~atronize
home trade and home institutions,
you will find a community of intelli.
gent and thrifty people.

Salem Special: That there are

olent Brotherhood of the Earth,

Order of Neptune;'' ect., etc. and it is
noticed that that there is always
attached a full set of 'sgrand LODGE
officers, each of whom begins to draw
a salary even before it is in the
treasury. A solicitor or organizer is
sent out who appoints a doctor to
assist him, and in a few days
the charter members get together
and the new benevolent institution
~ is in full swing. In a year or
less after the whole thing goes into
the hands of a receiver. and the
insured may whistle for the money
they have invested. The Armour

these concerns. 1t says: sit ought

The eastern papers have commenc-
ed to discuss the question of using
coke for fuel, and from this it is in
Dictated that the chances seem to be
growing less for the settlement of
the anthracite coal strike. Coke is
said to be a good substitute for
hard coal, for it is generally supposed
that the latter will be so high in
price that will be beyond the pocket
book of the average individual. It
is a queer freak Of humanity that
when the laborer makes a strike for
higher wages that tits invariably the
case that the poorer classes of people
r required to suffer the greatest
burden. The richer classes can buy
all the coal they want to at the
fancy prices, but the average preson,
to whom the striking laborer usually
appeals for sympathy, must get along
in the best possible way.

INDUSTRY GROWS
This One Industry Has Made Giant
Strides in the Past Few Years
over q Million.
over q Million.

The cattle population in South Da-
kota has made gigantic strides in the
past few years. It was but a few
years ago that cattle were not con-
sidered of much particular value in a
general way among the farming
classes. There were some who came
from a cattle country and with the
fine native grasses, on which cattle
thrive particularly we'll, they at once
began to cultivate the industry. 1t
spread rapidly and has grown to pro-
portions that was hardly eve antici-
pated. There is hardly a county in
the state but what has a goodly num-
Der, several of the sparsely settled
counties not making a very good
showing in this direction, but they
have the space to accommodate the
stock and when they are better set
tied they will have their proportion
ate share.
The recent assessment made
throughout the state shows the in
crease in the cattle population to be
l.2lS.2eT head, which are valued at
SIT. 236. 2O7. What other industry in
the state shows an equal amount of
money invested, and what other a
show as much remuneration for the
care that is given it?
The limits of the cattle industry in
the state have by no means been
reached up to the present time and
the years to come will see the num-
Der of head nearly doubled. There is
not a farmer in the state who has
had any success at all in the business
but what will always retain them on
bis farm, for they bring him an in
come practically every year.
In Dawson county the assessors
found ls,46s head which are valued
at S25S, 034. That is a big gain for
the county, when the number of cat
tie here some five or six years ago
was mighty small.

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: Major
G. Boyd Barrett of Aberdeen held
a conference at Mitchell this week
and discussed the parlous condition

reached the unanimous conclusion
that something ought to be done,
and quickly.
Notwithstanding the Argus
Leaders joke if all the democrats, or
even half OF them, were as earliest as
the major to further the interests OF
democracy in this state the attend
ance would have been larger at the
meeting in Mitchell. The naiol
shows loyalty to his party at least
by attending the meetings and help

If the Elks listen to the advice Of

caring that they did not give the
oroer a chance to demonstrate it's
goodness on earth. In the carnival the
worst side of Elkdom was presented
