South DakOta's Building

W. B. Saunders made trip to
Mitchell last week in the interest
of the worlds fair business,
where he met the other mem bers
of the commission, and where
arrangements were made for the
decorative work on the interior
of the state building. There are
to be in the building thirty six
panels, decorated similarly to
the arches displayed at the car
nival here last fall, and these
panels are being taken Tor repre-.
sentation by the cities and
counties OF the state, and we
understand the panels have
about all been spoken for. The
work on these panels is being
done by the ladies aid society of
the Methodist church of Mitchell,
the ladies doing the work under
the direction OF an expert grain
decorator. The cost of a panel
is from 800 for the largest ones
to $35 for the smaller ones. It
is expected that the South Dakota
building will be ready for these
decorations by the middle of
uext month, when the decora
tions aud agricultural exhibits
will be shipped to St. Louis.

The Country Schools
From The School Messenger.


The county superintendent
had about decided not to con-
tinue the publication of the
Messenger, but as many of our
teachers expressed a wish that
The Messenger would be pub
lished, and as a county teachers
paper seems to be the most
available means for super
intendent to bring many educa-
tional matters before the teach
ers and school officers of the
county, it was decided to resume
the publication of The Messen
ger, which we trust will reach
every teacher and school officer
in the county every month with
reasonable regularity.
The next teachers meeting
will be held at Big Stone City on
Saturday, January 16, 1904.
Robert N. Scott, who is teach
ing in Marvin, has been re en-
gagged for the winter term at an
increased salary.
Miss O. M Ralph, who has
charge in Alban No. 4, has one
of the largest and best attended
schools in the county.
Kathrene Hoeltgen, who has
charge of Melrose No. 3, has a
fine, large school.
Augusta Nelson is teaching in
Kilborn No. and has a good big
school,
The schools in Mazeppa No. 2,
in Stockholm No. 4, Alban No 4
and Vernon No. 4 may be called
the Big Four, as the enrolment
of each is from forty five to sixty
which is larger enrolment thar
any other of the country schools
have. Fortunately for those
four big schools experienced
teachers have charge of them
Our state is preparing to MAKE
a creditable educational exhibi
at the St. Louis Exposition mex
| summer. 1t is very desirou:
that Grant county make at leas
as good showing as neighbol
ing counties. To this end it is
recommended that all teachers
in both graded and ungradeo
schools, preserve any work OF
their pupils which is especially
meritorious, as excellent maps
or other fine drawings, fine in
dustrial work or photographs of
schools and school houses, or
whatever else the good judgm ent
and taste of the teachers suggest
as fit and proper for this pur-
pose. Then, as opportunities
occur, send this work to this
office

The Gazette has before stated tnas
the lands west of Pierre were good
grazing lands for live stock growers,
and the increase in the bank accounts
of the cattle men up and down the
river from Chamberlain to Evarts Will
clearly verify everythinglthe Gazette
has heretofore said. Much OF the
homestead land open for settlement
in Stanley, Pennington, Meade ana
western Lyman county already taken
has been homesteaded as grazing land
or reservoir water claims and proved
up as such. Many of the settlers over
there have been disappointed when
they came to make final proof on their
land because things did not turn out
at the Pierre land Office and in Wash
ingtOn as the Pierre capital boomers
had told the homesteaders they would.
Hundreds of men and women have
made final proof on their land the
past two years south and southwest OF
Pierre, that have failed to get their
patent or deed from the government
because they did not comply with the
requirements of the land department.,
and generally through no fault Of
their own, but because land locators
had misrepresented to them.
1t seems that there a few such
victims down in Brookings county,
according to an article that appeared
in the Volga Tribune last week, and
it is certain that hundreds of others
are caught in the same way in taking
these grazing lands. Here is what the
Tribune had to say about filing on
land last year in Hughes county-the
county that the state capital has been
located ia the past fourteen years:
Most of our readers will remember
that about year ago Mont Henry,
Frank Freeman, Hans Kalburg, Willie
Nelson, Harvey and Harry Porter,
went out to Hughes county and filed
on government land to the extent of
100 acres apiece. The boys made
several trips out there, building
''houses" on their claims and other
wise spending their money. They
made final proof at the Pierre land
Office last April and since that time
have been patiently waiting for their
patents from Washington. Last week
they received word from the interior
department that owing to the fact that
the boys had not maintained an actual
residence upon the land as they took
the land for grazing purposes, and the
evidences at hand did not show that
they had stock out there the depart
ment could not see it's way clear to
issue patents. The boys did every
thing that the Hughes county boomers
represented to them that was neces-
sary to be done in the matter of PROV
ing up and securing their patents. but
it looks as though the whole thing was
willfully misrepresented or the afore-
| said boomers were entirely ignorant
of the proceedings necessary to p,lr-
sue in order to obtain patents. There
are hundreds of people over the state
who will find themselves in the same
position as our rVolga boys in relation
to this western land. and in the aggre-
gate it will mean loss of several
thousand dollars. Mitchell Gazette.
