70 und, and what they discovered they
published in a report which has
long ago been given to the public.
Mr.. Tompkins writes extensively con-
corning these charges and denies
them entirely. He says if he is
guilty why does not the board prose-
cute him in the criminal court. 1t
is reported that Mr.. Tompkins will
demand a trial for his case, when he
is guarded from being brought be-
fore the public by the fact that there
is no law to fit his case. Mr.. Temp
kins evidently stands on the ground
that a failure to prosecute him de-
clares his innocence Of the charges.
1t is understood that the board has
plenty of evidence to convict him but
there is no section in the statutes
which will in anyway cover his case.
Mr.. Tompkins' character has been
attacked by a board of ladies and
gentlemen. If he is so innocent why
does he not prosecute them for mali,
cious SANDER. This would bring to
a head the fact whether he had been
unustly charged. There does not
seem to be any possibility that he
will ask for an Investigation on his
part, and will be content to rest as
easy as possible under the present
circumstances.

FRUITS AMI FLOWERS,

When a limb is cut from a tree, it
should be as close to the body as posi-
BILE, making the cut a smooth one.
In purchasing trees select those that
have good, healthy roots and plenty Of
them. The roots are the life Of the
tree.
Small fruit culture will always be
most successful on the intensive plan.
Plant only a small area at a time and
give the best culture.
The garden should not only supply
early vegetables, but what is needed all
Through the season, with a surplus to
store away for winter.
With apples for home use set out
enough varieties to keep up a constant
succession from midsummer through
autumn and winter and of long keepers
to last until small fruits come in.

five prime steers averaging in weight
1858 pounds. The live weight was
679o pounds. l will give you the net

will see where The packer comes in

purchase Of these 5 prime steers, and

this thing square in the face you
will agree with me that the news
papers are making more anarchists
and breeding more discomfort than
all the labor congress has done this
season to put down anarchism. The
whole thing will reflect on our

the head OF our government should
be the last n to discourage eXpan-
sion in an honorable way.

were fed eight months on full feed

No very hard conditions are i'm
posed on the Beers in the peace
terms. The burghers are required
to lay down their arms and ANU
milton and all munitions Of war: all
prisoners + to be taken back to
South Africa as soon as possible
without loss of liberty Or property nc
action will be taken against
prisoners, except where they have
been guilty Of breaches of the rules
of war; rifles will be permitted in
the possession of the burghers for
the protection of their homes against
enemies, though it will be necessary
to take out a license for the privi-
lege; there will be no tax on the
T%ransvaal to pay the costs of the
war; the sum OF SIS, O0O, 900 will be
appropriated to restock the farms of
the Beers. Seemingly easy as are
the terms OF peace they are hard for
the Beers to submit to when with it
goes their independence.

Judge Frank Washabaugh was
buried at his home in Deadwood Sat-
urday. The death of Judge Washa-
baugh brings sadness to many q heart
all over South Dakota. His name
has been connected with the earliest
history of the state. Locating at
Deadwood in 1877 he has steadily
assembled the ladder in the estima-
tion of the people, of the entire
state that his death becomes practi.
cally a personal loss. He was a
lawyer by profession and so thorough
was he that his republican friends
united earnestly in urging him to be
come the candidate for Judge in that
district against Judge Moore. Mr..
Washabaugh was elected without any
trouble and he showed a great popu.
larity with the people.

The struggle between the Boer and
the Briton is over with and peace
has been declared. For weeks the
two countries have been discussing
the peace proposition and it was
thought that they could never
reach the agreement. The
peace conference terminated with
the signing of the measure on May
81, and was conducted for the British
by Lord Kitchner and Lord Miner,
and all the Boer representatives.
The news was not cordially received
by President Dom Paul, who eX-
claimed: "My God, it is impossible"
London was a scene of mad Joy when
the news was received Saturday
night. and the dispatches state that
no victory of the British was received
with more gladness and Joy than the
news OF the peace contract. The
English press is not particularly
elated over the peace terms, mas
much as it does not know what the
terms are, and admits while much
has been achieved during the war
more will be necessary under the
terms of peace. 1t has tbcen a long
struggle, and n that has cost much
on both sides. A brief resume OF the
war is given as follows:
The war in South Africa began Off
cially Oct. IL, 1899. the date set in
the Boer ultimatum concluded on
May 81, 1902, it therefore continued
two years, sever months and twenty
days. The official British statistics
to April ] of this year give these
losses:
Total deaths in South Africa
Officers. 1920: men, 20, 031.
Missing and prisoners: Officers, 1884
men, 9,l81.
Sent home as invalids: Officers,
1887: men 6S,311.
The British have taken about 3D.
600 Boer prisoners. OF killed and
wounded on that side there are no
reliable statistics, nor are there any
( statistics as to the money spent by
the two Boer republics. The cost OF
the val to the British, according to
the statement Of the chancellor Of
the exchequer in presenting the
budget in April last, has been a lit
tile over 1924, 600, 900. Britain has
had about .2S0, 600 men in the field.
The Boer force at the state was es-
timated at so. 900.
The peace terms will make King
Edwards coronation more of a sue
cess. 1t has been one of the burdens
in England that the coronation would
likely take place with the wal still
in progress. The Beers have made a
grand fight and although they lost in
the struggle they have staggered the
British into a realization OF being
better equipped to carry on wars in
the future. '

1t has taken ex-Superintendent W.
H. Tompkins some time to decide to
appear in print in denial Of the
charges that were made against him
in connection with his position as
superintendent OF the reform school
at Plankinton. MI. TOmpkins was
first charged with exceedingly i'm
moral conduct with the inmates and
teachers of the reform school, and
this Was set forth by the board of
charities and corrections His friends
pooh-poohed the idea that they
were true, and still everything was
silent on the part Of Tompkins and
his friends, at least nothing more
was expected from him and them
that he would deny the whole bust
ness. Mr.. Tompkins, several months
after, now comes out in, a signed
statement in answer to the charges
that were made by the lady
members Of the board, which also
makes Investigations among the
state institutions. The ladies went
out to the reform school several
months ago and made a thorough in
yestigation of the conditions at the
request Of the governor. Teachers
and inmates of the institution were
questioned and the replies that we're
given the ladies proves conclusively
that the charges were not groundless.
The ladies went into records and
documentary evidence to get at the
bottom of the whole business and the
they went the more they

that will prohibit Intoxicating
liquors being sold at the bar. When
the bill was voted upon there were

in support to satisfy the most ardent
prohibitionist. An effort has been
