A Canton special states that Rev

A Canton special states that Rev
A. G. Shepherd, pastor Of the Meth
odist church Of that city, made some
strong charges in a sermon Sunday
evening concerning the conduct Of
some of the professors Of state insti-
buttons, declaring that their conduct
was such that it well nigh rendered
the schools as unfit places for Chris
tian parents to send their children.
In making declarations Of this char
acter Mr.. Shepherd is no doubt fol-
lowing a line he thinks TO be right,
but the professors of the state insti-
buttons who are innocent Of anything
of this character are placed in a very
unfortunate position, owing to the
fact that the minister does not speci-
fly. If he holds the information with
which he charges these professors he
| would be following his line Of duty
| in a more generous manner by speci-
| flying than by making the broad and
general charge. 1t lays too many
| open to suspicion.

IRWIN CASE DROPPED
His Attorneys Asked for Dismissal
of the Case Without Prejudice
Court Granted 1t.

The case Of j. H. Irwin against l.
W. Seaman, W. Il. Williams and j. q.
Ellis to recover a commission on the
sale Of some land, came to a sudden
conclusion in the circuit court Thurs
day morning. The evidence had been
practically all submitted when Pres
ton s. Hannett asked the court to
dismiss the case without prejudice
and it was granted. Messrs. Hitch
cock and Williams, the attorneys for
the other side. asked that the case
be dismissed in favor Of the defend
ants. Mr.. Hanrett stated that they
had reached that point in the case
where they had laid the foundation
to bring suit in a much larger sum.
The next case taken up was that Of
John pepper against Pat Champion,
in which pepper brings suit to re-
cover the balance due on a carpenter
contract. the sum involved being
about $40. A. E. Hitchcock is the
attorney for Mr.. pepper and Preston
& Hannett for Mr.. Champion.

Aberdeen has a distinctively new
society, the purpose Of which is to
beautify the city. A"number of peo-
Pile have clubhed together to promote
the planting of trees and shrubbery,
and otherwise identifying the city.
With an organization of this char
acter in a town there is no reason
why Aberdeen ought not to be a more
attractive city in the years to come.
Something like that pays a mighty
good interest on the investment.
Other communities might profit in
following Aberdeen's example in this
respect.

The Butte, Montana, citizens had
a great time in settling the question
as to who was to entertain President
Roosevelt when he paid that city
a visit. In his characteristic manner
the President took the matter into
his own hands when the two COM
mittees met him at the entrance OF
Yellowstone Park. The mayor of the
city had been ignored by the two
factions, and to settle the question
President Roosevelt Informed the
committees that he would select the
mayor as the gentleman to do the
honors Of the city and the other fell
lows were turned down. There have
been a number Of cases during the
Presidents tour which have en-
barassed him and this is the first
time that the situation required any
thing for him to settle.

and E. II. Hubbard, tell of the
strenuous times that encOmpaSSed
Sioux City ten years ago when the
great failure Of the Union Loan and
Trust Co. occurred and which injured
Sioux City to a large extent. 1t was
an interesting recital OF those days,
and we remember them up here in
South Dakota. However, that is all
ancient history, and the Sioux City
Of today has so far outstripped the
sioux City Of ten years ago that it
does not seem possible that such a
calamity could eyer have rested on
that town. 1t took some almighty
hard work to stem the tide and turn
things the other way. but it was &C
complished and we are indeed right
glad to see Sioux City well up in the
front rank again, a place her indom
liable will and courage will easily
sustain in.the future

THAT RUSSIAN PROMISE.

Omaha Bee: Those who have been
long familiar with the tricky ana
INSCRIPTIONS policy of the Russian
government will not be at all sur
prised regarding its latest develop
ment in China. While that govern
ment had given the most unQuali-
fed assurances Of its intention to
withdraw its military forces from
Manchuria and to maintain in that
territory the open door principle in
trade, it is now seer that its purpose
was simply to firmly intrench
itself in that portion of China and
when it felt itself to be secure to
practically renOunce all it had
promised and assert complete control
of the richest and most commercially
valuable portion Of the Chinese
empire.
In accomplishing this the Russian
government has pursued, it appears,
it's proverbial course. 1t has made
fair promises to the nations while
carrying on secret negotiations with
the Chinese government and
strengthening its power in the
region which it desired to perma-
nently retain. Its protestations OF
a purpose to deal fairly, if ever
seriously meant, appear o to be
utterly ~disregarded, and the indica-
tions are that the purpose is to shut
out all the commercial nations from
that great territory in China that is
under Russian domination.
thus it would seem that all efforts
OF the United States to preserve
the open door in China had failed
SO far as Manchuria is concerned,
There will be protests undoubtedly
against the arbitrary and unscrupu
lous course of Russia, but as nov
seems probable they will not amount
to anything. Steadily and surely
that power has been strengthening
her position in the Chinese empire
Or in that portion Of it which j:
under Russian control, and the hes
opinion is that this control is now 81
firmly established that it will hardl.
be possible to interfere with it. A
Nanchurla has taken of Ameri
can products than any other portion
of China the situation has peculia
interest for the manufacturers an
merchants Of the United States.

DIR. Albert Alonzo Ames, the ex-

DR.. Albert Alonzo Ames. the ex-
mayor Of Minneapolis, is on trial in
that city, charged with conspiracy,
extortion and bribery. For a long
time Ames was able to escape the
officers of the law and evade being
brought before the bar of justice.
He seems to think in his W mind
that the trial is only a matter OF
form that will establish his inno-
cence. When some of the detectives
and policemen who are languishing
in Jail are brought on the witness
stand it is possible that the ex'
mayor will learn some things Of him
self. Ames was elected three times
as mayor. He will be tried on ter
counts.

Although there was any amount OF
wholesale criticism on the laws
adopted by the late legislature yet
there does not seem to be anything
Of d concerted action on the part of
the people to try and abrogate those
laws. We have the referendum, and
the referendum is for the purpose of
submitting unwiSe laws to the people
for their rejection and forever hold
their peace. The Aberdeen referen-
dunn meeting is a mere shadow,
and very likely the promoters are
sorry that they called it. The Sioux
City Journal in mentioning this
recent incident has the following
to say about the great reform move:
If the referendum hasn't done my
thing else in South Dakota it has
furnished the people with a method
Of indirectly indorsing the work Of
the legislature. At the close Of the
recent legislative session there was
criticism of some Of the legislation
enacted, and naturally enough, the
critics thought Of The referendum
as d meal Of undoing the objection
able legislation. A meeting was
called tc be held at Aberdeen for
the purpose Of putting the referen-
dunn machinery in motion. The call
was circulated throughout the state,
and all who were dissatisfied with
any feature Of the recent legislation
were asked to attend. When the
meeting vas called to order it was
disclosed that just ten men were pre-
sent. and that everyone of these i lived
in Aberdeen. So far as the purpose
Of the meeting was concerned it was
a complete failure. But the failure
OF a single South Dakotan outside OF
Aberdeen to register a protest is not
without significance. 1t is a case OF
silence meaning assent to the propo-
sition that on the whole the work
OF the legislature was satisfactory tC
the people of the state. With the
means Of multiplying a law at hanC
and a motion before the state tt
nullify, the failure of the motion
must be accepted as an Endorsement
Of the record made by the legislature
The legislators are entitled to point
with pride to the Aberdeen meeting

CIRCUIT COURT OPENED
Judge Smith Read the Calendar and
Set Various Cases for Trial
Some are Dismissed,

Under the new law adopted by the
late legislature the spring term of
circuit court for this county began
Tuesday, nearly a month earlier than
under the old law. At 10 o'clock
court was opened and Judge Smith
read the calendar for the attorneys
to make answer as to the cases that
we're for trial. There were 10 civil
cases on the calendar and Of these
seven were for the jury and five
were set for the court to hear. or
the others some were dismissed and
some will be argued for a contin-
uance.
On the criminal docket were the
two cases against Fred. L. Stevens.
of Plankinton. 1t will be remember
ed that Stevens was convicted in the
circuit court in this county a year
ago last November Of receiving de-
posits in the Plankinton bank after
he knew it was insOlvent. In Feb
ruary, 1902, he Vas sentenced to four
dllu OllC"lldl1 yCulS III OlIC pClllUClllldlJ
by Judge Smith, but the case was
Immediately taken to the supreme
court and a new trial asked for.
| Ever since Stevens has been out on a
bond of So. 900. Recently the supreme
court handed down its decision and
granted the defendant a new trial.
Judge Fellows and Mr.. Stvens ar
rived in the city this morning ready
to begin the trial over again. Pres
ton & Hannett, who appear in the
case for Aurora county, asked for a
continuance at this term on the
fground that the principal witness
was unable to make her appearance
in court. Judge Smith granted the
continuance and it will be taken ur
at the November term.
There were three other criminal
cases that were disposed Of. One was
against Dave Minard, who was
charged with stealing a trunk. Min
ard did not appear in court and The
cash bond that he put up was for
feited to the county. The bond fully
covers the costs the county expended
in the case at the outset. There
were two liquor cases on the docke'
that were dismissed. One wa!
against j. P. Bradley and the othe
against w. D. Sanford.
The first case taken up on the civi
calendar Was that of Geo. Fl. Sum
mers against Albert Wocknitz, il
which Preston s. Hannett appear TO
Mr.. Summers and T. J. Spangler TO
Mr.. WocknitZ. Mr.. Summers bring
suit against the defendant for rem
for the use of a we'll drilling outfi
for 16 months at the rate of $40 pc
month, and also for the loss Of tool
and fixtures that belonged to tn
, outfit. The case started in June
1897, and has been on the calenda
!, for the past four or five terms, bu
the jury has neve agreed. A jur

the testimony was introduced durin
the afternoon.
