he saw some farmers blowing the
crop under. The doctor did not

Parkston Advance: At a con
gregational meeting of the Presby-
terrain church last Thursday even
ing it was decided to discontinue
the services of this church indef-
nltely. This action was taken in
view Of the fact that the congrega-
ton has been so reduced by re-
movals to other localities that it
was not deemed profitable to lon
ger continue a separate field of
work.
South Dakota has no reason to
complain of the crop yield this
season. Oats, barley, rye and
speltz were never better. Corn,
though a little backward, is now
dong nicely, and if we avoid an
early frost will be a good average
crop. Wheat is extremely spotted,
the yield ranging from s to 20
bushels, but with the price ranging
about so cents per bushel the pro-
ceeds will not be bad.
E. G. Emmons, John Armen-
trout and A. W. Headley of Stew
art, Ia, old friends of J. NJ. Dun
mire, stopped off here Tuesday
evening and on the following day
went on to White Lake. They
were surprised to find the corn crop
Just as far advanced and just as
good here as in Iowa, but their
greatest surprise was the crop of
tame grass. They had supposed
that the tame grass crop was still
III the experimental stage here, but
all agreed that they had never seen
as handsome a field Of red clover
as the fourteen acre field Of second
growth clover now growing on Mr..
Dummies farm. They said par
ties from their nelghborhood who
had visited Scotland had spoken
very highly of the country, but
thought the price Of land was too
high to permit Of profitable specu-
lation for buyers. In this they
could not agree, as they said they
saw no reason why land in the Vi
cinity Of Scotland should not sell
at 500 per acre within five years,
as the land lays better and produc-
es just as much as the land around
Stewart where it is worth that
amount.

REJECT LOCAL OPTION PETITION
0allatin Commissioners Refuse to
Call an Short Seven.
teen Names.

The county commissioners last
night decided to refuse to call an elec
ton on the local option issue on the
ground that the petition presented did
not have the required number of
names of duly qualified voters. Hav-
ing fixed the total number of quail
fed voters in the county at 2, 200, they
took the ground that 900 names were
equired. The petition bore the names
of 1,215 alleged qualified voters when
pr esented. The commissioners removed
bout so of these names by request of
the signers, made in writing. They
thr ew out others because their names
CO uld not be found on either the as
sess ment list or the last registration
list. The number of names left after
the scrutiny of the commissioners was
finished, was s37. They permitted the
anti-saloon league to furnish them
evidence in regard to some of the
names rejected and restored enough
names on this evidence to bring the
count up to 8S3. This number being
II short of the required number, the
petition was rejected.

ti-saloon lea que will take next, but
they have an attorney employed and
will probably be guided by his ad-
vice in the matter.-Bozeman Chron-

Railroad History,

In 1899, when Robert Stephenson's
engine the Rocket gained the
prize for power and speed awarded
by the directors of an English Rail
way, the opinion was unanimous
that the summit of engineering skill
had been reached. This engine
weighed triHe over four tons and
with two carriages weighing nearly
ten tons, an average speed Of fourteen
miles an hour was attained.
A wonderful development is in
evidence at the present day as DEM
onstrated by the monster engines Of
the Northwestern Line-massive..
powerful and capable of attaining
great speed. The finest of motive
power and equipment comprise the
famous NorthW estern Llmited-
every night from Minneapolis and St.
Paul to Chicago.
