Field Marshal Oyama

The battle of Mukden has been
fought and history is richer sad
1-r. The smallest Of so-called civilized
powers has fought probably the great
est battle that history, sober-minded
and respecter of mathematics, has
ever known. This battle was the
greatest in number of men engaged, =,
in the territory covered, in its COM
pleXity of development, in the bearing
it will have on history. Nippon
fought it against Russia, the largest
empire on earth, as geography goes,
and, as all military Europe told us,
the greatest Of military powers.
The captain of the Nippon camp,
the victor of this great battle, does not
measure many inches over five feet.
In peace and in war, it is his amiable
custom to style himself, to the more
intimate of his foreign friends, "the
ugly old man."
lie is the embodiment Of the spirit
ofthe Nippon campaign in Manchuria.
His character is a striking comment
on the conservative nature of this
ManChurian campaign. If there is as
military commapder in the service of
his Majesty who typifes the ripe COM
plCteness Of system, who emphasizes
the apOtheOsis OF the military machine,
Marquis Oyama is certainly the man.
In putting him at the head of the
Manchurian campaign our country
has paid the highest tribute to the
military genius and ability of General
kuropatkin. Every movement Of this
campaign has been planned liked so
many different component parts Of
a hugh piece of machinery. No
place was given for the tlashlight,
for the volcanic eruption, so to speak,

commanders.

staff are silent at the receiver. Now
this and then that officer turns to him.
The entire mission OF his life seems to
be to take things with ease and COM
fort. 1t is not exactly picture of an
heroic soldier on the firing line, such
as the military tradition OF Russia
seems to have a certain weakness for
even in this day. You see in this old

The Sunday evening concert given
at the First Baptist church drew a
crowded houscand theprogram reflected
great credit upon Prof. Christensen who
had charge Of the entertainment. 1t
would be hard to say which was the
the best feature. The orchestra and
chorus work was fine and the soprano
solo by Mrs. o. II. Runyan deserves
special mention. Mrs. Runyan has
an exceptionally sweet voice and the
great pleasure afforded the audience
was the distinctness of every word
which was audible in the remotest
portion of the church.
The Easter program by the Presby-
terian Sunday school was well carried
out. Although somewhat lengthy it
was full Of interest and entertaining
to the end. We doubt il the Sunday
school ever gave a better one. One
OF the features Of the entertainment
and which was nicely and appropri-
ately referred to by DR.. Chalmers was
the sight presented by the primary
department as the children were
arranged on the platform behind a
bank of flowers and green foliage. 1t
was indeed pretty sight and called
forth many remarks of admiration.
Among the best features OF the pro-
gram was the song by Winfred Ray,

ENTERPRISE
Our Enterprising Miller Adds an
Automatic Condenser

Mr.. SeXauer, proprietor OF the Brook
ings Roller Mills, is trying another
experiment which is somewhat novel
and which he believes is going to be
saving on fuel and on the life of his
boilers. He has recently had attached
to the exhaust pipe OF his big engine
an atmospheric condenser which con-
sists of a series of galvanized iron
pipes so arranged on the outside of
the building that the exhaust steam
from the engine must pass through
about 80 feet of it before reaching the
top of the building. BY this system
he is enabled, by reason of the con-
densation, to get 4 large supply Of
soft water for his boilers. The colder
the weather the greater will be the
condensation and consequently a
larger supply Of water. This water
is carried back into a tank and again
into the boilers. The supply of water
obtained, even in this weather, il sur
realize large profit on bis small
investment for he will not only save
on the pumping but on the life of his
boilers and machinery. Its a cold day
when our enterprising miller can not
use natures freaks to his advantage
and coin money out of the air. The

POINTED TO
WITH PRIDE
Brookings Commands the Respect
of Other Cities


Civic decency is. at high tide in the
college city of Brookings. Pride in
the town, and a willingness to spend
time to improve conditions has been
the noticeable thing in Brookings for
several wears and the result is that
BrooEingS is one OF the best governed
towns in the state, and is one OF the
most beautiful. The secret is easy to
learn; the citizens of Brookings take
an Interest," hence they get results
WatertoWn Herald.
To which the Sioux, Falls Argus
Leader adds: No place in the state
has gone into it SO fully, and has won
such excellent results. Brookings
owns her own water plant and last
wear made profit of 81 ,554. The tel
ephone line is owned by the city, and
the profits reported last year were
S3.625. \ heating plant owned by the
public has been installed. There was
a loss of about $500 on this item last
wear, because thcrate made was too low.
This has been slightly advanced, and
the plant is now being run at a proht.
1t costs under the advanced price ~
50 TO heat a room ten feet wide, 70 feet
long and 10 feet nigh for a period OF
seven months. This means that
Broollings people who can connect
with the city plant can get their neat
much cheaper than under the old sys-
tenn. The BroOkings taxpayer last
wear paid only - mills as the entire
cost of running a city government
which provides all of these convent
ences at less money than they can be
secured from private corporations and
as the city grows, and the present
plans are better worked out, the saw
inc will be increased. Consumers are
charged a meter rate OF 70 cents
thousand for water, with minimum
charge at $12 per year for $4,000 gal
Ions or less. The city is bonded for
$50 600. Mayor Jenkins says that
mot one cent of taxation has been
levied to pay the expenses OF the
municipal plants" The surplus is
being set aside for a sinking fund to
redeem the bonds when they shall be-
come due, and in the end Brookings
will own all of these utilities, without
having extracted cent from the tax
pavers, with less cost for better service
in the meanwhile, and with hand
some annual tax-freeing surplus there
after.
We cite these facts for the encour-
agement of those communities in the
state which are interesting themselves
in the question of municipal owner
ship, or which, like Sioux Falls, have
already made the start, and met hard
discouragements. Success in munich
pal ownership is certain if the people
will discharge their duties of citizen
shin. The soundness of the principle
is no longer questioned. Success or
failure will result from putting the
principle into actual trial according as
the individual citizen does or neglects
his civic duty. In short it is in the last
analysis merely a question OF admin
stration, and administration In the
end peels down to the individual voter.
Brookings is to be thanked for the
excellent example she has been to the
