NEsPOTIsM CHARGED.-And now the
Grand Army posts of the State are
raising an outcry against Gov. Mead.
for appointment of Chas. Beals, a
brother-in.law, to the adjutancy oil
the Soldiers Home, at Orting. The
old soldiers base the blame, however,
more upon ignoring one of their
number in selection, than in the pre-
ferment given relative. They ask
that the Governor remove his kins.
man and appoint some veteran to the
position. 1t is said that they really
believe-or affect to believs-that the
appointment OF Beals to his present
position is only preliminary to the re-
moval of Commander Hyde and plac.
ing him Al the head of tho institution.
The matter will be forced upon the
Governor for decisive action within
the next thirty days.

GOES TO
WASHINGTON
Prof. Chilcott rendered Position in
Department Of Agriculture

Prof. +. G.. Chilcott, who holds the
chair OF Geology and Agronomy in
the State Agricultural College and is
vice-drector and agriculturist of the
U. S. Experiment station here, has
been rendered and practically ac-
cepted n position in the agricultural
department at Washington, ID. c., al
though his commission has not yet
arrived. The letter asking for his ac-
ceptance or rejection of the position
states that his headquarters will be in
Washington, although his work will
be in South Dakota and the semi-arid
district reaching as far south as the
panhandle of Texas.
The nature of his work will be along
the same lines that he has been pur-
suing here, experimental work in the
adaptation of soils to the growth of
plants and cereals. As is we'll known
Prof. Chilcott has been pursuing his
studies and experimenting along these
iA''NS ioi ~ CSllto Vi Noi0 uhtii hN bt'n
become one OF the best authorities in
this country. The bureau of plant
industry at Washington has recently
secured an appropriation from con-
gress OF S25 900 to carry on this partic-
ullar line of work on more extensive
scale, and in charging their field of
operations they have recognized the
ability of Prof. Chilcott and the tender
has been made entirely upon the mer-
its of his work. 1t came as complete
surprise to him and, as is shown by
the letters he has received from the
department., was entirely unsolicited.
The salary offered was 81, $50 and
will be increased to $4,000, which, to-
gether with the advantages afforded
for greater scientific research and in
vestigation, were more than the prof
essor could we'll withstand and he has
indicated that he will accept, provided
a few minor details can be arranged
and will, in all probability, enter upon
his new duties the first of July, but
not later than September first.

THE NEW
DEPOT PARK
Work Being Superintended by Prof.
N. Z. Hansen

Work on the park north of the new
Northwestern passenger station was
begun last Friday by the leveling of
the unsightly mounds of earth that
have remained on the ground during
the winter months. The REGISTER is
informed that the park will extend
from the depot north to Front street
and from Main street west for full
block. Notice has been served on the
proprietor OF the old railroad eating
house that the building must be
moved at once in order to facilitate
the work of park improvement.
We have not seen the plans, but the
ground is already staked out and the
work will be pushed to completion as
rapidly as possible. 1t is understood
that Prof. Hansen OF the horticultural
department OF the S. ID. A. c., will
have the entire supervisor of this park
which is a guarantee that it will be
thing OF beauty and pleasure to the
eye. The railroad company will furn-
ish all the labor and bear all the ex-
pense except that they will ask the
city OF Brookings to furnish the water
necessary for its preservation and
adornment. This the REGISTER feels
sure the city will do as matter OF
pride in the improvement the North
Western is making in that part OF the
city.
A gang OF men arrived Sunday night
and Monday morning the work Of
moving the old depot to its new loca-
ton on the east side of Main street
was begun. When in position the
interior of the building will be remod-
eled somewhat and will be used main
ly for freight depot. Road Master
Irwin will continue to have his office
in the building and local express and
freight will be received and billed as
heretofore.
Another gang of men began the
work of laying the brick platform
around the new passenger station
Monday. These brick are hard burn
ed and will make platform guaran-
teed to withstand the ravages OF time
and the onslaughts of the best IRON
bound trunk that ever rode in bag
gage car.
Altogether these Improvements, when
completed, will completely change the
appearance of things in that part of
the city and the travelling public will
be quick to note them as there will be
nothing finer on this line of road in
the state.

ORATORS

tural college at the next state contest

ience. The oratiOns were of a high

three contestants as follows: Carl

Carl Reich, who spoke on Lafayette,
won first place; Miss Bonesteel, who

M. 0. HILL
NEW MANAGER
Prof. Hill will Return to Brookings
and Reside Permanently.

Charles II. Harris, inspector of gen
eral agencies for the Fidelity Life
insurance Co., was in the city Satur-
day and while here closed a contract
whereby NJ. @. Hill will become their
state manager to succeed DR.. j. W.
Heston. As is well known DR.. Hes
ton will soon become president of the
State Normal at Madison and the
company has been looking around for
a good man to fill his place and their
choice has fallen on Mr.. Hill who was
presented with proposition he could
not afford to turn down. Besides a
handsome salary the company will
furnish him with fine suite of office
rooms in the New Century Block and
a stenographer will be provided at
their expense. This means that Mr..
Hill will once more become perma-
nent resident of Brookings and that
school teaching will be thing of the
past, as he will in the future devote
his entire time to establishing agen-
cies and looking after the interests OF
the company in South Dakota. The
REGISTER congratulates Mr.. Hill on
what we believe will be a fine opening
for him as we are somewhat acquaint-
ed with his ability to write life in
surance, and if he proves as success
full in his new field as he has in
educational work he will make VIM
ner, and the company will have every
reason to congratulate itself upon
securing his services.

WARM CITY
CAUCUSES
1t is Chilly Day When Brookings
DON'T Have Exciting Caucuses.

The general caucus held in this city
Saturday night, for the purpose of
nominating Mayor, resulted in ia
vor of F. NJ. kremer. The contest
waged by the friends of Mr.. Lawrence
and Mr.. Kremer was one of the
warmest that has occurred in this city
for many years. Yet, withall, it was
good natured fight and does not
seem to have left behind it the Bit
terness and enmity that sometimes
follow in the wake of a hot political
contest.
Saturday was an ideal day for poll
ticians, warm and bright, and it was
made use Of to the fullest extent. Both
sides put forth a mighty effort for su-
premacy and the result remained in
doubt almost until the last vote was
counted.
Saturday morning there was every
indication that Lawrence would win,
but as the day wore on the kremer
adherents grew enthusiastic and to-
ward evening shouts for kremer could
be heard here and there over the city.
Banners bearing the significant words
''Kremer for Mayor" were brought out
and borne over the city as they drove
furiously too and fro in quest OF the
voter. The general feeling seemed to
be that kremer was gaining ground
and the result shows that the feeling
had some foundation in fact.
When the hour arrived for calling
the caucus to order the old Methodist
church building was filled to over
flowing. DR.. A. A. Harris was elected
chairman, and +. G. Orr and A. 5.
Harding secretaries. The chair APP
pointed G.. B. Haber and j. F. Brooke
tellers.
II. +. Haroldson was nominated
for city treasurer by acclamation, and
there being no contest on the offices
OF police justice and city justice,
Geo. p. Hall was nominated for the
former office and Albert Matson for
the latter, both by acclamation.
For the office of assessor 5. {. Cor
nell, II. H. Korstad and w. II. MUIR
ply were placed in nomination to be
voted on by ballot. The vote below
shows that Mr.. Murphy was winner
by a good majority. j. II. Olberg and
4. b. Allison contested for the Office
of school treasurer, Mr.. Allison being
the winner as shown below.
AS for many years these caucus
nominations have been equivalent to
an election the real fight centered here
and the large vote polled would seem
to indicate that the people were I'M
pressed with the fact that it was an
election rather than caucus.
The total number of votes cast was
634 and the result was as follows.
