4 SANITARY MOVEMENT
A Proposition to Improve the Condi-
lions in the Business District
Likely to Come Up.

In conversation with a member of
the city council a few days ago The
Republican learned that a movement
was on foot to improve the sanitary
conditions in the business district.
and, further, that no time will be
lost in pushing it to a final con
clusion. Tt is understood that an
ordinance will be framed for pre-
sentation to the council which will
require the removal Of the about
buildings on the alleys east and west
OF Main street which comprises the
business district. 1t is believed to
be for the general good of the city,
and certainly anything Of that
character is entitled to the hearty
support of the public, even though
in a great many instances it will
work something Of a hardship.
Mitchell is getting to be too large d
city to longer harbor these unneces-
saIy and unsightly decorations along
the alleys. The sewer along Main
street is perfectly adequate to ac-
commodate placing Of lavatories in
all the business houses and this
movement will be encouraged by the
construction of additional sewers east
and west Of Main street during the
summer, so that when the time
comes in the very near future every.
thing will be in readiness to accom-.
modate the innovation.
With the growth of a city these
things naturally come as a result of
expansion along the various lines,
and Mitchell has certainly reached
the dignity of a city that is entitled
to such Improvements. Already in
several cases the outhousps have
been removed and lavatorits estab-
lished, and it is hoped that the
council will not rest content until
every n of them is removed from
And when they are gone then
the council should make it a point to
see that the premises in the rear of
the business houses are kept in a
state Of cleanliness.

TWO GIRLS NEARLY DEAD
Two University Girls We're Nearly
Asphyxiated by Escaping Gas
From a Stove.

Misses Dot Laughlin and Alice
Boyer barely escaped death Saturday
morning from asphyXiation. The
young ladies are attending the Unit
~versity and board.at the residence
of S. B. Sphinx on the south side.
On retiring Friday evening they
fixed the hard coal stove in some
manner that the gas escaped and
this morning they were found I'M a
very serious condition. Miss Laugh
lin seemed to have inhaled less than
Miss Boyer and she managed to
arouse herself from her deep and
heavy slumber and gave an alarm.
Miss Bowers condition was indeed
serious. Her body was cold and
rigid. DR.. Bobb was called and by
artificial means he restored her res
piration and finally resuscitated her.
1t was a very narrow escape for the
young. ladies and one that they will
likely never forget.
They are both residents of Ashton
in the north part of the state, and
their relatives were telegraphed Of
their condition Saturday.

Engineers and Skilled Mechanics.

E. A. Warner. private secretary to
Gov. Herreid and editor of the
Eureka Blade, paid the following
compliment to the gentlemen OF this
city who were at Pierre during the
first week of the legislature and
assisted in getting a crowbar under
the state capitol building:
That bunch of capital removal
fellows. from Mitchell, oficered by
Harry Bras, Senator Branson, Tom
Burns and Gen. Silsby, are cracker
jacks and entitled to a whole lot Of
credit for the extremely smooth
manner in which they manipulated
affairs in the interests of their town.
They are 'sengineers and skilled
mechanics Of a high order; they
work without bluff or buster and
accept victory with well regulated
modesty. Talk about your "ball-
bearing,n "anti-dust,'' "under-the-
roof procf'' machinery; it is not in
it with that gang Of fellows from

JOINT BUILDING ENTERPRISE
Workmen and Odd Fellows Contem.
plate Erection OF Lodge
Building.

The growth of the Odd Fellows and
Workmen lodges has reached that
degree that they find it practically
impossible to use the rooms that
they are now separately occupying.
For some time the Odd Fellows have
had a building project on hand, and
have just interested the Workmen1
in joining issues with them in the
construction of a building that will
meet the wants of both orders.
a committee of three from each
lodge was appointed to confer on the
proposition, which is as follows:
Workmen, L. E. Stair, A. j. Kings,
R. M. Sphinx. Odd Fellows, Elton
Mckinley, @. E. Mason, S. b. Sphinx.
This committee met Friday after
noon and DECIDED to take some inn
mediate steps along the line of build
ing. Mr.. Kings was elected chair,
man OF the committee and Elton
Mckinley secretary It was decided
to ask for propositions from owners
Of lots on which to erect a building.
While no plans have been sub
mitted as yet it is expected that a
building so feet wide and so feet long
and two stories high will be erected.
The upper floor will be used for lodge
purposes, and its width and length
will afford the best lodge room in
the city. and will be adequate for
any session of the grand lodge. The
lower floor will be made into two
store rooms and utilized for business
purposes.
The lodges expect to get the build
ing completed by next fall, If the
work is begun, as they now contem.
plate. this spring. 1t is the idea to
form a stock company to secure
funds for the erection of a building.
With a membership of 260 in the
Workmen lodge and of $50 in the Odd
Fellows it ought not to be a Diff
cult matter to raise the funds In
the manner mentioned.

III any number of the members of
the Legislature have any hesitancy
about the necessity for some strin-
gent action with reference to the
matter Of Oil inspection in this state,
they can get a good idea of what
Gov. Herried thinks Of the matter
by reading the following extract
from the message, which relates to
the matter of Oil inspection as prac-
ticed under the law of this state
The inspection law Of our state, to
say the least, is simply a burlesque.
Strenuous efforts have been made
with biennial regularity that would
prevent the state from being the
dumping ground of inferior oil that
cannot be disposed of in other states.
The adjournment OF the legislature
is usually celebrated by a particularly
obnoxious stencil from every lamp
chimney in the state. These dis
tressing conditions have at various
times become intolerable.

AS usual at this time Of the year
the deadlocks in the various state
legislatures are taking place and the
indications are that they will con-
tinue for an indefinite period. Col
orado and Delaware are having par
ticularly severe attacks. In the for
mel state Senator Teller is within
n vote Of an election. In Washing
ton and Oregon there are symptoms
of a deadlock with the numerous
candidates for senator in each state.
These conditions are simply hurrying
along the time when the senators
will be elected by the people in a di-
rect manner,

ON ELECTRIC LIGHT PLANT
Citizen Has Something to Say
About Electric Light Plant
in Mitchell.

Editor Republican:-In your issue
of the 2lst you gave the Electric
light plant a much-needed airing.
You say that the city contracted to
take eight lights for twenty years at
81 per month for each light. Yes,
and the company agreed to furnish
"eight arc lights Of 1900 nominal
candle power each,'' and when they
failed to do SO they forfeited their
franchise. The company was bound
to perform its--part Of the contract
as well as The city.
You speak Of purchasing the plants
and moving it up to the city water
works. Now, the mystery to me is
how do YOU expect to get more light
out Of that plant up there under the
control of the city than the present
management can get out Of it in it's
present location. They no doubt are
getting out all there is 10 it. There
appears to be no fault found with the
management of the machinery,
only it does not give a good light. 1t
is overloaded, That Is what is the
matter.
You must remember that plant
was erected and established in 1883,
and was supposed to be able at that
time to supply Mitchell with all the
lights needed in those days. But
Mitchell has outgroWn the system,
and went beyond the dreams of the
most visionary. The plant and
everything connected with it is carry
ing twice the load it was intended,
You speak Of tie city purchasing
it. Why, there is nothing about it
that the city can use, except that it
might be some of the poles. The
other material could be picked up at
any old junk shop as old iron. Cities
outgrow these things and when you
take a span of colts to do the work
Of a heavy team it drags. Yes, l am
with you on having light that is
good, and enough OF it to supply g
city of 80, 900 people, with an all.
night service, and then it will be an
inducement for everybody to use it.
In order to do this | believe that WE
will have to secure a new plant
throughout, for light cannot bt
furnished by such a Nheezy old out,
fit as the present Hoping to have
more light on the subject.
l am YOURS.

When anybody speaks of the capital
campaign and Mitchell's possibility
OF success, they tell us that we have
I'd hard fight on hand. That is
thoroughly conceded by every
resident Of this city, and more
than that, every resident of Mitch
ell is going into that campaign with
the full understanding that we have
got to fight to the last day before
election. and they are going to do it
but at the same time we have the
deep conviction that we are going
to win that fight just as sure as
election day comes. We can see it
in no other way, and on that propo-
sition we are going to fight it out if
il it takes all of two summers.
Mitchell is using every honest and
legitimate effort to increase the
sentiment of capital removal and
when we are through with the cam.
paign the citizens of the city viii,
have nothing to apologize for. Cap
ital sentiment is growing stronger ir

OFFICIAL COUNTY PAPER
FRIDAY, JANUARY 80, 1903.
SOUTH DAKOTA DIVORCES.

Chicago Record-Herald The de-
cision of the United States supreme
court i~nvalidating a divorce granted
in South Dakota to residents of Mas
sachusetts will one more emphasize
in the public mind the need of a
national divorce law establishing
uniform conditions and require
ments as a basis for DEGREES of separ-
alton.
The South Dakota law requires a
residence Of six months i'm that
state before a divorce can be
granted. When an applicant for
divorce, residing in another state,
takes up his residence in South Da-
kota and remains only six months,
it is plainly obvious that the
residence is only temporary, a fact
confirmed when The relations Of
citizenship are resumed Immediately
after the decree is granted.
In a question of this kind vitality
affecting the basis Of orderly and
organized society the people are not
disposed to patiently tolerate any
clubbing over legal technicalities.
"A Massachusetts Divorce may have
legally become a ''citiZen OF South
Dakota under the law of that
state defining citizenship by resid-
ing there six months, but the law of
South Dakota cannot destroy his
citizenship in Massachusetts especial
ly when he has returned to that
state to reside. Under the democrat
izing and disintegrating complica-
lions growing out of such s%candalous
state enactments which threaten the
fabric of decent and we'll ordered
society. the sentiment in favor of a
national divorce law is rapidly
gathering irresistible force.
Chicago Inter-Ocean: States which
diSbelieye in easy divorce can evil
IDENTIFY make the DEGREES oflthe South
Dakota and other divorce mills
practically worthless 60 their
citizens. Under the Andrews de-
cision it is open to either party to
ohSh ~ IUGaSh 10 tollolGy
at any time in any state from which
the other party may have temperate
~ emigrated to secure the decree.
The knowledge that a divorce OBJ
tanned by Temporary emigration can
have nc ~tinality and may .be upset
whenever property interests or
personal resentment inspire attack
upon it must deter disconnected
husbands and wives from getting
South Dakota DEGREES.
Had Charles S. Andrews known
that the woman he preferred would
be put in an unfortunate position,
and that not to her but to the wife
that he had rejected would go his
fathers estate, it is quite probable
that he would not have wasted time
and money upon a South Dakota
divorce.
To make the divorce mill futile is
the short way to stop its grinding.
That way the United States supreme
court has pointed out.
