SCHOOL FUND ALL OUT
Every Cent of South Dakota
School Money Now Draw
ing Interest

Pierre, S. D., Nov. 21.-The
state land department has sent
out eighteen patents to final pur-
chasers of state lands. Five of
them go to Turner county, four
each to Bookings and Deuel.,
two to Grant and one to Kings
bury, Marshall and Union. The
final payments are not coming in
as rapidly as they did last year,
when purchasers were paying a
years interest in advance for
the privilege of paying up and
securing full title. AT that time
the reason was given that the
owner, by paying, could secure
a much larger loan on the land
from private parties than the
amount due the state. Either
they are not being offered loans
at present or the purchasers are
in such financial shape that they
do not need loans and are willing
to carry the state accounts.
The permanent school fund
was a few days ago down to about
$3.50, which was the lowest point
it had reached for years, but nov
the last cent has been drawn out
by a county which wished a few
dollars more to complete a loan,
and not a cent of the fund is
idle, all of it drawing interest for
the school. This reduces the
surplus in that fund from over
$500, 900 to nothing in less than
a year.

of the democratic par

Some of the democratic papers
are still, or rather again, talking
of low tariff. Tariff for reven-
ues only, says that democratic
organ, the St. Louis Republic, is
the only logical and real reel,
procity. In other words this is
free trade-the free trade of the
British. It would seem a par
ticularly inopportune time just
now when England, finding that
she cannot hold her own in the
world S markets against protec-
ton countries is in the midst of
a fight for the overthrow of the
old policy. When in power the
democrats failed to enact a tar
if for revenue only and no sane
man believes that they would do
SO now, we're they given the
power.

Dakota Central to Build in
South Part Of State

Aberdeen News: Manager IietlOW
of the Dakota Central Telephone Lines
announces today that the company
has perfected arrangements for the
expenditure of about $50, 900 in extern
siOns in the central and southern part
of the state the coming year, n the
material for the work has all been
contracted for within a short time past.
Indeed some Of the material, including
a carload of copper wire and ship
ments of poles are already or the
ground and some of the work will be
done yet this year if the weather will
permit. The improvements will be all
of the best and the lines especially
calculated for long distance work
the lines being what are known as
the copper metallic circuits similar to
St. Paul. Traffic arrangements have
been made with lines south and east,
SO that the new lines will connect
Aberdeen, Mitchell, Huron, Pierre,
Madison, Sioux Falls and intermedi-
ate points with Sioux City, and all
the important points in Iowa. Such
of the work as may be done yet this
fall will be completed and the material
will all be on the ground before spring,
SO that the entire improvement may be
made early in the season of 1904.
These connecting links with the south
and southeast have been needed for
some time and it has been a question
which of the companies to be connect
ed would put in the lines. Now that
the Dakota Central has made the traf-
fc arrangement, the work, which is
considered the most important done
in the state for several years, will be
pushed with great vlgor.
