Niles, Mich, Aug. 20.-At Big RapiGs
a young man is submitting himself to
torture in undergoing an experiment to
test the efficacy of the Roentgen rays IN
the cure of consumption.
The climate Of western states, the skill
of specialists and everything known to
science were tried in vain. whereupon the
invalid went to Big Rapids and placed
himself in the hands OF an uncle, a we'll
known physician, who determined on
heroic measures. The young man bravely
submitted 8 to the ordeal, and for some
time has been treated by the x-ray pro-
cess each day. s~as -.

ened until fifty minutes at one sitting
has been reached. The theory is that
if the Roentgen rays. will kill diphtheria
germs they will kill consumption bacilli.

the terrible effect Of the rays. At one
time his mouth was fairly closed and only
by inserting piece Of pipe could liquid
food be administered.
The young man realizes that it is life
or death and willingly undergoes the
treatment. He now feels that the germs
have been killed by the rays and that
by and by he will be restored to health.
He is able to wait on himself, which in
itself Is encouraging. and his physicians
think there is possibly a new lease Of
life in store for him.

AS we study the history Of our country, as
we trace it's progress from the days of the
colonies down to the present, we. are i'm
pressed with the fact that individual efforts
have largely given way to other agencies and
that combinations Of capital and Of labor have
replaced the energy of those who, single
handed and alone, formerly wrought out the
commercial problems Of the time. AS we
view the situation, as we marvel at our won
drous growth, we cannot well avoid the con-
clusion that without these new conditions the
present proud position Of our country could
not have been achieved Without them the
railroads, the steamship lines and other great
enterprises of our state would have been I'M
possible. Without them the results which
have followed the blending together OF in
dividual efforts and the formation of the
great partnerships In our financial and COM
mercia1 world could not have been attained.
/ am not one of those who believe that all
the acts OF corporations are right. believe
that in harmony with the laws now. upon the
statute books of the state of New York they
should not be permitted to monopolize cer-
tain products or oppress those who are de-
pendent upon them for the necessities of life
|So long as combinations have for their object
a fair return, without injury to the great
mass OF people who make up our common
wealth they are not exceeding the purposes
for which they were created. They should
be held in check, however, BY Legislation
which is the result Of wise and concerted

Only No. 1 Marketable Crop.
SIOUX FALLS, s. D.-According to the
reports Of the Western Brewer of Chi
cago and New York, and recognized as
an authority on barley the world over,
South Dakota is the only state in the
union which is this season producing q
No. 1 marketable barley crop.
The publication places the yield of the
state at 100000 bushels. but Moriz Lee
vinger, connected with a company which
recently erected a mammoth mailing
house in this city, says the yield is not
less than 100000 bushels. The Western
Brewer places the average yield at ~
bushels an acre, while Mr. Levinger puts
it at not less than 40 bushels.
The Western Brewer says the acreage
sown to barley in the state surpa assed
last year by II per cent. The increased
acreage is in the counties of Sphinx, Yank-i
ton, Moody, Miner, Minnehaha. Lake.
Kingsbury, Codington and .Brookings. The
increase in this (Minnehaha) county is
undoubtedly due, to the erection Of the
mailing house. -

= II South Dakota people were not so
prosperous and busy, a capital removal
campaign would be waged with much
candidate and Mitchell and Redfield have
been in training forasome time. Water
town had "bee'a. two years ago at Pierre,
and with little encouragement might
become an avowed candidate. Pierre will,
of course, fight to the death to retain
what 1t has. -,
There Is strong sentiment In the state
in favor Of resubmitting the question and
the usual effort will no doubt be made
at Pierre this winter. The difficulty is
in crystallizing the sentiment and In get
ting the members Of the legislature to
unite upon town. The issue must arise
a cannot be left open, but must be by di-
rect amendment Hence the question
cannot be: Shall the capital be re-
moved to Huron, Mitchell or Redfeld, but
shall section so and SO of the state con-
stitution be amended by inserting the
name of one of these towns only?
II the coming legislature resubmits the
question, the voters cannot pass upon
It until the next general election, which
will come in 1904. Then, should the
amendment not carry, the capital will re-
main at Pierre, and no other vote can be
had unless the question IS again resuD-
nitted. -:s-.
The machinery of removal is slow and
s cumbersome, and an advantage in, this
respect is given the town already In pos
session The conflict of interests and
the local jea1ousies which are aroused
whenever capital removal is mentioned
have saved Pierre on more than one oc-
casion. The question was suddenly
sprung at the close Of the last session,
and came so near winning that Pierre cit
1zens did not recover from their fright
for several months. But for strong
political and legislative pull, coupled with
the jealousies and envies of the rival
towns, each seeking to be 'it," Pierre
would have lost the fight and perhaps
the capital. The house declared for re-
submission by the decisive vote of 81 to
49, Pierre was strongly entrenched in
the senate, by reason of It's foresight in
securing cnairmanships and other lever

Milwaukee road, with it's main line at
Mitchell, Is for that place, and that the
North West ern is to Pierre or Huron,
Redfeld, which has both lines practically
on an equal footing, believes it has a
good chance in case of a serious~clash be-
tween the railway interests. Its citizens
have not been carried away by it's pros
poets and are not making and may not
make an aggressive campaign. Just at
present they are having all they can do
to take care of the boom and prosperity
that have come to them. The city has
about doubled its population in the past
two years and expects to double again in
the coming two. 1t is dream Of the peo-
pie that the orth-Western will extend
westward from Forest City, on the Mis-
souri,, to the Black Hills, instead Of ex-
tending from Pierre. This would give
Redfeld fine system of connections with
every part of the state. So far as the
railroad situation is concerned, it is
abreast of it's best favored rival If not in
the fight and probably never will in the
preliminaries. But as a compromise can
didate it has strong hopes.
Pierre is in good shape to fight it's enc
mics. It has strong politicians at home
and helpful alliances in quarters which
can do it vast amount of good. It's in
terests are in large part identical with
those or the vast range country to the
west and through these it has kept in
close touch with all the people of the
Hills. The peculiar railway situation,
too, has been to the advantage of Pierre,
for the Hills section has looked to it for
a connecting state line. AS the great
Sioux country settles up the voting con-
stituency close to the capital is enhanced
and in course of time will become of
goodly proportions. 1t is felt that If
Pierre can hold the capital few years
longer, while the formative processes are
working themselves out, it will eventually
be left undisturbed in the full enjoyment
Of all the prestige which the capital can
give. The fact that the opposition is di-
vided lends 1t no small amount Of en-
couragement. as s4.s ID

Acting upon the advice of Attorney General
Pyle the governor received the gift of bonds
for the state university, and Mr.. Pyle asso-

to collect the full amount due on the bonds,
1t appears these bonds were issued by North

This suit Is against Simon Rothschilds
Charles, Salter and the state of North Caro-

the various bondholders, had offered Mr.
Schafer 25 per cent of the face value of the
bonds. although receiving from the railroad
company annually large sum in excess o.
the interest and liability on said bonds.s This
