Vital Statistics For October

The observance lof the requirements
Of the Vital Statistics law in every
county is most gratifying. In a
large measure this is due to the in
,terest aud fidelity of the clerks of
court, and to the publicity given to
the bulletins BY. newspapers. The
wisdom Of placing the duty of regis
tration in the hands, of responsible
salaried officers rather than: IN the
keeping Of unremuneratedi boards of
health is already demonstrated, and
Is not vain boast to say that
South Dakota is now making the
completest and most comprehensive
vital records Of any state.
sss BIRTHS.

Until the recent murder of young
woman in an English railway COM
partment car that unique feature of
British conservatism has not been
heard from in long time. English
railways are comparatively free from
horrible accidents, but the private COM
partment car puts premium upon
horrible railway crimes. The victim is
at the mercy Of the assailant, and the
chances of rescue or detection are nil.

That Timber Deal.

A sale of fifty million feet of "dead
and insect infested" timber is re-
ported. The timber lies in the Black
Hills forest reserve and was sold to
the Mclaughlin Tie and Lumber Co.
for the magnificent sum OF $4,000.
This sale brings the government
$40 for each million feet or 74c. for
each thousand. The company will
manufacture ties, etc. from this
timber it is said. While not laying
claim to very much knowledge as to
the value of timber; it looks to US as
though the purchases were not liable
to suffer much financial loss as re-
suit of the deal. The price paid may
be reasonable one for the timber if
it is dead and infested as claimed,
but, if it is, how can good, saleable
railroad ties be manufactured from
it? Dead timber will certainly not
make good ties, and the fact that the
company will manufacture ties from
this timber looks very much to US as
though this timber cannot be quite
as dead as one would gather from
the papers that record the deal
