HARD TO GET ARrEsIAN WATER

Potter county has for several years
been making determined efforts to Sc.
cure satisfactory artesian well; but so
far without avail. The eighth effort to
get artesian water there is the we'll
recently completed by G.. ID. Hill Il Co.
on the premises of Mrs. II. II. Hall in
Pleasant View tp., where from depth
of 1740 feet the water rose to within II
feet of the surface, and will he utilized
by windmill. The above is about the
average depth of the borings in, that
county except at Gettysburg where the
drill was put down over 1000 feet, altho
the water probably comes from a lesser
distance. -Four of the wells are flow
ing ones and the other four are SIMPLY
deep wells, operated by windmill, or by
gasoline engine, as at Gettysburg, at
depths, ranging from IL to los feet.

was paramount and would have to be
considered and that it would be u great
injustice to Watertown to held the en-
campment anywhere else. When OK
alnined it appears that Watertown has
subscribed few hundred dollars to
improve the grounds where the encamp
ment is held. And If the eucampment
is held somewhere else the city of Wat.
ertown would lose the money the sol
diers and visitors would spend in that
place This is the ground of Water
towns objection to the boys going to
ST Louis For the sake of getting the
few nickels that the boys would spend
there they would deprive the state OF

CORN FED STEERS IN sULLY
Sully County Ranchman is Adopting the
Iowa idea

Andrew Nelson who has been engag
cd in the stock business in all Of its
branches in Sully county for several
years, is wintering a large number OF
cattle and out of the bunch he is corn
feeding three carloads and is very well
satisfied, after the winter is thus fa'
gone, that he has made no mistake. He
expects to be able to show that it is not
necessary to ship feeders to the south
eastern part of the state or to Iowa.
The corn crops which Sul'y county has
been producing of late have begun to
sound the death knell of the business
of shipping in dogies and turning off
grass fed stuff for Iowa feeders to
make the profit on. With increasing
corn crops and decreasing range, the
corn fed steer is bound to soon become
anumerous article in this section of
the country.

'MENT FOR
.Chas. H. Burke
Hughes County Republicans
Show Where They Are at
Regarding Cong. Burke's
Candidacy

There are q few political Founders in
the state who have access to the col
umns of the press who make it point,
at the approach of every campaign, to
circulate report to the effect that
s"there is move on foot in Congress-
man Burke's home county to overthrow
him" The falsity of these statements
lis patent to anyone who will credit the
people of Hughes county with having
"a grain or two of sense. Congressman
Burke went to his first term with the
united support Of his county and every
official and private act of his since that
time has been of nature that has tend
ed to strengthen the political bonds and
the bonds of friendship that have al
ways held him to the people and the
people to him. Beginning his congress
sional career in q modest but determin-
ed way he soon gained recognition for
South Dakota that a young state could
hardly expect, and is today recognized
as one of the most watchful and aggres
siye workers in the interest of his con
stituency. In his skilful work of engi-
neering through the legislative halls
many measures of vast Importance to
South Dakota he has never failed to be
attentive to the minutest individual
want of his most humble constituent,
and, supported by the record that has
grown up with him during his service,
it is insanity to suggest that he will
have anything like formidable opposi-
ton. The sentiment regarding him in
Hughes county can be ascertained by
reading the following letter which was
sent to him few days ago after hav-
ing been signed by every republican in
the county to whom it was presented,
and it was presented to nearly all.
DEAR SIR: Being DESTROYS of secur-
ing your denomination and election as
your own successor as Member of Con-
gress. we suggest that you call upon
Che Hughes County Central Committee
to call mass convention CT the Re-
publicans of Hughes County, at such
time and place as may suit your con-
venience, and that you select Hughes
County delegation to the next Repub-
lican State Convention.
We assure you that it will be a pleas
ute to ratify such selection as you

A GREAT BIG ROAR
FROM WOONSOCKET
Think Adjutant-General Scmewha
Arbitrary, and Watertown
Porkiferous

In somewhat lengthy and impas
stoned article the Woonsocket Times
wakes wroth over the action which it
says was taken in making selection of a
place of holding this years encamp-
ment of the State Guard. The Water
town side will probably have some
thing to say for itself, but, at any rate,
editor Bentz's etfusion which is as fol.
lows, will be interesting reading to all
mem bers of the Guard;
A short time since the officers of the
second and third regiments of this state
met at Redfield to decide whether the
state encampment of the State Militia
should be held this year at Watertown
or at st. Louis The opinion was I'M
animous in favor OF going to St. Louis.
The advantages in favor OF st. Louis in
this, the Worlds Fair year, are SO enor-
nous that there is no comparison with
those of Watertown. The National
Guards of a great many states will be
there, and the boys would have the ad-
vantage Of seeing the soldiers of other
states and the ambition to appear well
in competition with other regiments
would be of great benefit both to the
individual and to the military service.
Besides this the regiments could drill
vancouver in large bodies to the help
of both officers and men The young
men who are memt ers of the second
aud third regiments of this state will
compare favurably with the members
of any two regiments i'll the United
States and are justly the pride of the
state. Each regiment has famous
band, the Second being the Sioux Falls
Band and the other the celebrated
Third Regimental Band of Woonsock-
ct. 1t was supposed that at the decis-
ion of the officers the encampment
would be held atSt. Louis would be
final aud there was great rejoicing
among the hundreds of bright young
| men who comprised these regiments at
the lecision. The decision was popu
lar. The boys were fairly wild to 60
and there was great enthusiasm at the
idea that they would have chance to
see the greatest exhibition of art, sci.
ence and progress that the world has
ever seen.
Buta change has come over the stu
alton. General Conklin, the Adiutant
General of the state, is quoted in the
sioux Falls papers as saying in sub
stance that the regiments would prob
ably not go to st. Louis but would 90
