SCHOOL FUNDS IN DEMAND.
Counties to Get No Money Jan. for
Investment.

Land Commissioner Bach is sending
out letters to the county officers over
the state announcing that he has no
funds to disburse on Jan. 1 to the diff
ferent counties from the permanent
school fund for their investment.
There is only $1792 of the fund lying
idle in the state treasury, and this
would make an apportionment so small
that it would be of no use to any coun-
ty. The balance of the fund, amount
ing to $4.67Q.499, is invested and draw
ing interest. For the past year the
permanent fund at no time has
amounted to more than few hundred
dollars, all of it being kept out. The
money coming in is all placed long be-
fore it reaches the treasury, and is
sent to places waiting for it as fast as
it accumulates. The commissioner
congratulates the different county Off
GERS on their efforts in keeping the
funds invested

that is what has impressed us most
in reading the testimonials in regard

bears the ring and stamp of truth
upon it. He says:-
II was troubled for six months

AFTER SHARE OF INSURANCE TAX
Ninety-One Cities and Towns File Re-
ports With State Auditor,

Last year several towns were left
out OF the distribution of the percent
age of insurance tax which goes to the
fire companies because they failed to
make the required reports to the state.
Among the principal towns left out
were Huron and Deadwood. The state
auditor called attention to the necessi-
ty OF filing such reports if there was
desire to secure share of the funds,
and as result 81 towns have filed re-
ports this year against GO which made
filing last year. The list, which has
been certified to the insurance COM
missioner is composed of the following
towns: Aberdeen, Alexandria, Alpena,
Armour, Artesian, Belle Fourche, Ber-
esford, Bowdle, Bridgewater, Bristol,
Britton, Bookings, Canova, Canton.
Carthage, Castlewood Centerville. Cen
trail City. Chamberlain, Clark, Clear

Viborg. Vienna. Volga. Watertown.
Waubay, Webster, Wentworth, White
Rock, Whitewood, Wilmot, Woonsock-
ct, Worthin and Yankton.
The distribution of this fund will be
made next spring, and the amount to
each town depends entirely on the
amount Of premiums paid by the town,
the fire companies getting 2 per cent
of such premiums in their home town
alone.

BUILDING GROWS ACTIVE.
Immense Warehouse and Factories Be.
ing Erected at Watertown.

The International Harvester com
pany is making arrangements to build
a mammoth division warehouse and
general office building at Watertown.
1t has leased the site on the North
western tracks and will begin immedi-
ately to erect a structure 125x200 feet.
1t will be of fire-proof material, prob
ably of brick, but that detail has not
yet been decided. The first floor will
contain storage rooms and sample
floors, and the Offices will occupy the
second story.
By the side of this building the Ore
gon Feeder company is making ar
rangements to build factory. The
company will put up structure SOx

ers for threshing machines. 1t will
employ from sixteen to forty-five men

Gov. Elrod has issued the following
Thanksgiving proclamation:
''All the people of the commonwealth
have great reason to be thankful for
bountiful crops, for employment, for
health, for happy homes, for blessings

and many of the comforts of life.
"In conformity with the proclama-

H. Elrod, governor of the State OF
South Dakota do set apart Thursday,
November 80, 1905, as day of thanks
giving.
"All citizens are earnestly urged to
cease from their labors at least a part
of the day and to meet in houses OF
worship or in homes and give thanks
unto God. Where there is sickness
and sorrow let friends fail not to do
and say things which will cause the
hearts of such unfortunate ones to
be thankful.

thereby to compel her to telephone her

they were frightened away. Mrs.

LACK OF ADVERTISING.
North Dakota's Population Shows Big
Gain Over South Dakota,

When the two Dakotas were admit
ted to statehood. in 1889, South Dako-
ia had fully 4 third more population
than did the north state
At the present time the population
OF the two states is practically the
same, as shown by the census of this
year. Ever since the admission, North
Dakota has been working to secure
new population. Its state land depart
ment is supplied with d sufficient fund
for advertising purposes to send out
illustrated circulars and large
amount OF printed matter. in which
not only the state lanus alone are adj
vertised, but the section in which they
are located is shown up to the best
advantage. .
During the same time the Great
Northern road has kept in existence
nm immigration bureau of it's own and
has done great deal towards secur-
ing settlers for that state. For the
same time every effort to Secure any
thing in the way of AN appropriation
from the legislature of South Dakota
for advertising the state or keeping an
immigration bureau in existence has
met with a cold rundown.
Nothing has been done outside of
private efforts of different land compa-
MES. The result of the different poll
ties followed by the two states is
shown in the figures which give North
Dakota a gain of l70, 600 in population
since 1890, and South Dakota gain
Of but so 900.
The question of action is being gem
orally discussed over the state, and it
is hoped that if the next legislature
will do nothing more, it will supply an
additional clerk in the state land de-
Partment for that purpose and provide
him with a sufficient fund for printing
to be able to answer the many inquir
les which come to that department.,
but which cannot be answered for the
reason of lack OF opportunity and the
necessary information.

GOLD OUTPUT is VAST.

The Black Hills have produced in
the last Twenty-Five years about $780,

made from a recent estimate by one
of the principal mining men of Lead.
This output is from the mills and from
the placer mines and is based on ac
tual returns. Just what the Black
Hills has produced outside this record
no person ever could estimate. Thou
sands of dollars were mined and sent
out in private ways which never have
been recorded. From now on the
Black Hills will increase each year the
output, owing to a large number of
new mills that are soon to go into
commission. These new plants will
have daily capacity of from 200 to
