Special to The journal.
Pierre, s. D., Dec. Last year the state
land department found great deal Of trouble
in the enforcement Of the provisions of chapter
"a of the laws of 1905. This law requires school
officers to make sworn statements as to their
returns of school census. In the past such
return was made without oath, and with the
state school fund apportioned on the number OF
school children returned, there was strong
temptation on the part Of some OF the officers
to make the returns as glowing as possible.
When the reports began to come In it was found
necessary: to return many of them for sworn
statements, and In some cases the report was
returned several times before 1t finally COM
pleted. To save recurrence Of this trouble,
Land Commissioner Bach is sending circular to
county superintendent, calling their attention
to this provision, and advising them to take up
the matter with their school officers at their
winter meetings.
By the time the appointments for next year
are made there will be another factor consid-
cred in chapter 1853 of the 1905 session, which
requires pupils attending the different state
schools to be excluded from the lists of the
counties in which such schools are located, when
the census for apportionment; Of the school fund
is made. The intent of this Is that when the
state is paying for the education of pupils in
state schools, such pupils are not entitled to a
share Of the general funds when distributed.
By listing them the county in which such
state school Is located gets double beneJt.

MINES AND REAL ESTATE

Perhaps few states in the union have
enjoyed longer or more substantial real
estate booms than Colorado. From a
desert settlement to a city of the first
class, Denver's progress has been one
of climbing values. What has made
residence and business property values
SO good in Denver and in other cities
in mining regions, has been the steady
upbuilding of the towns-not for a day,
but for ages. The business blocks,
erected almost entirely by mining are
substantial. And substantial buildings
are always essential in communities
that are to endure.
Mining profits have gone largely into
real estate. The magnificent mining
stock exchange at Colorado Springs
was erected by money Stratton took
from the Independence. Fully four
ffths of the business blocks of Denver
were put up by mining profits, and per-
haps Of the other fifth, scarcely one did
not have thinning money" in it.
Even in Goldfeld, New, where one
would expect to see the frontier town
still prevail, some very handsome build
ings are being completed, and others
just as substantial have been oceupie |
for months.
At the same time, mining profits con-
tinue to open other mining properties.
This proves that the profits are large
enough to develop both the mining in
dustry and it's collateral branches at
the same time.
One becomes accustomed to measure
the desirability of states or cities by
their realty values. In the west, if the
persons investigating will look a little
farther, he will see hat mining has
been responsible for at least the
g start that these regions nave re-
ceived in their growth.-Denver Min
ing Record.

1 TO CHEAT HIM
Rockefeller Refused to Pay Extra
Penny for Paper

There are big men in the world that
it is always real JOY to meet. Inere
presence is an inspiration, says the
Bullfrog Miner. They make one think
more Of life, of mankind They are not
big in name and little in nature. They
are big not only in pocketbook, but IN
heart, head and humanity.
Perhaps nowhere will a person run
across more of this class Of big men,
proportionately, than right here IN
Bullfrog. 1t il really from these men
that the first money comes for the de-
yelopment of a sew mining camp.
A type Oh this class Of men was at
the Merchants hotel the other day. 1t
was T.. C. Campbell, Of San Francisco,
the well known counsel for the South
ern Pacific Railroad company. Mr..
Campbell is president Of the Pilot Gold
Mining company, a close corporation,
which has just started operations IN
Bullfrog. Mr.. Campbell is large IN
person and in brain as well as being
rotund in purse. He is jovial, witty
and very democratic in his ways. The
goodness and greatness of his nature IS
reflected in his glowing and intelligent
eosntenance.
At the Merchants, after Mr.. Camp
pell left, they were telling about how
we'll pleased the big attorney was at
the way he was treated; how surprised
he seemed to be to find such accommo-
dations on the desert; how he gave the
waiter a $50 bill and told him to keep
the change after the check for $42.50
was paid; how he remarked to Mixolo-
gist Hooper, when the change was
made, that he thought that all, desert
refreshments were % cents instead OF
1914 cents.
Then N. L. Cohen told an incident to
illustrate the character of another big
~man-John d. Rockefeller.
Mr.. Cohen, who lives in Bullfrog,
was a "news butcher" on the New
York Central in 1899. He had the Gro
ten local run out of the city. This
train ran through Tarrytown, where
John d. Rockefeller 8 5000 acre home,
called "Boxwood,' is located, and the
oil king was an almost daily passen-
ger.
At the time referred to most of the
New York papers were selling for &c,
but the Herald sold for 4c. The train
pulled out of Tarrytown and Mr.. Cohen
startea to sell his papers. A tall man
who boarded the train alone called to
him for a Herald. Cohen gave him the
paper, received a nickel and continued
selling to other passengers. Presently
the tall man, in a tone of voice that
could he heard from one end of the car
to another, yelled after Cohen:
Here, there! here, therel young
man, haven't you made a mistake9'
Cohen returned and, with the re-
mark, 81 beg you pardon for making
the mistake gave the man a penny.
Cohen, who was a comparative stranger
on the route, asked the brakey who
that man was, and he was told that 1t
was John ID. Rockefeller.
After that Mr.. Rockefeller would
have the exact change, Z cents, for a
copy of the Herald and Sun.
The incident shows that, while the
gentleman whose billiard-ball pate has
just beer artificially covered may not
pc as big a man in some respects as
Mr.. Campbell, he is still big enough TO
have difficulty at the last moment,
Cohen thinks, to go through the eye of
a needle.
