STOP THE CHINESE CONSPIRACY

More than $4,000 Chinese in the United States
armed and drilling to perfect themselves in military
tactics. They have formed themselves into army;
have tred-and In some with success-to induce
Americans to assume their leadership They have
about perfected plans for secret mobilization in the
weltnigh inaccessible mountain Of California
and Nevada. Their object is TO upset the
ent government Of China friendly power depose its
rulers and violate and break down the United states
exclusion laws.
These astounding facts brought out in way
precludlng doubt controversy in The Herald yester
day. They show a most surprising state Of AFFAIRS.
They Indicate that the laws of the United States
being violated with mpuny.
These conditions would TO call for prompt and
decisive action the part of both the United States
and the state authorities. The laws of the former are
extremely plain in the matter. Not in times of war
between other countries do allow of either OF
even sympathzers, to prepare American soil to
sist their native adopted land. We prosecuted the
Cuban flibusters would not think of permitting
Russians Japanese to carry a propaganda
here, let alone to drill and equip armies The Chinese
are doing more than this every day.
Ample evidence is furnished of these facts in the
columns Of The Herald. Names places, photographs
and all necessary data given It is the duty of the
authorities to get busy without delay to stop these out
and TO bring to Justice these knowing vloators Of
the laws Of the country and of the state.

NORMAL GRADUATES HEAR
BACCALAUREATE SERMON
President MllIspaush DwelIs Upon
the Life Of Christ as an Insplr-
alton of Youth

i
the Life Of Christ as an InspIr-
alton OF Youth
President j. f. Millspaugh of the
state normal school delivered the bac-
calaureate address to it's graduating
class of sixty-seven members yesterday
morning at the First Congregational
church.
| No unusual features marked the oc-
casion, but the sermon carried with 1t
deep significance.
President Milspaugh took as his text
the sixteenth chapter and twenty-ffth
verse of Matthew: For whosoever will
save his life shall lose 1t, and whose
ever shall lose his life for my sake shall
find it." He said in part:
"Of the real meaning of the great
teachers words when he exhorted his
hearers to lose life that they might
attain it we need not remain in doubt
or uncertainty Not only was he the
teacher of the higher life, but he was
also it's interpreter and example.
Nowhere in word or in action is
there indication that he despised the
gift of life; never did he mistreat it or
seek to throw it away. He used it.
1t was to him an instrument of service.
HE came not to be ministered to,
| but to minister Whether employing
| his intellectual and spiritual insight to
| interpret truth to men or in the sweat
of his brow at the carpenters bench
contributing to social comfort and thus
| forever putting the seal of dignity upon
honest toll, or healing the sick and
sympat hizing with sorrow, or, finally,
giving up life itself for the racial
ways, everywhere, the Masters life was
a life of service.
"Thus did he interpret and exemplify
his own teachings, thus did he lose his
life, thus did he find it,
1T is in service then that true life
is to be realized. This is the philosophy
of selfhood Here we have the touch
stone which determined the value of
the present life--its capacity for SER
vice. The seeker for his own life shall
lose it But he who daily spends his
life in service, who loses 1T in helpful
effort, who invests it for Christ and
humanity, he makes it the ladder by
which he may rise to the ideal. The
loser of his life shall find it.
ITO you. my young friends Of the
graduating class. this declaration of
the great teacher comes with especial
persuasiveness. You are today stand
ing on the threshold of a career which
is preeminently one of service, career
In which multitudes of devoted men
and women have realized the grandeur
and glory of noblest selfhood.
THAT you are animated in some good
degre by a sense Of the dignity of its
transforming power have every rea-
son to believe. That you may carry
away from the institution which you
are soon to leave-from it's laboratories,
its library, it's class rooms-somethins
more than the knowledge you have ac-
quired, something more than the skill
you have attained, something more even
than the enthusiasm for investigation
and study, which many of you have
gained; that, more than all else and
better than all these you may bear
away with you a lofty and unselhsh
Apurpose to use all that you have gained

The Trouble

The Trouble
We all know what's the matter now when

They've found the pesky lazy worm"
that makes us loaf in ease.
In Porto Rico, and we know why labor is
a tease.
'Tis very plainly now set forth why idle
ness is rife
It isn't moral worthlessness that bids us
cease from strife,

idle bugs" exist,
To make us seek surcease from toll when
we will not be missed?

when we have stunts to do
That are unwelcome; and we're sure OF

The "do-it-haif-way' creeper is thing

Many people of South DAKOTA object
to the manner In which the campaign
for PRIMARY election has been carried

been manufactured to large extent.

signatures for petitions favorlng the

"There is also feeling in South Da-
kota that the system as worked out
so far is defective, and that it. is bet
ter to wait until more satisfactory
method is discovered. For instance.
the Minnesota law permits minority
rule. A man may be nominated for
office without having anywhere near
a majority Of the votes of his political
party. Plurality, not majority

To Reclaim Lands.

a special from Sisseton to one of
the dal.es on the 10th gives the out
line of a huge drainage scheme Nv
which an immense slough which cuts
Harmon aud Bryant Townships into
two parts will be dr9incd and added
to the tillable land OF the county. A
mammoth ditch will be the principal
means OF dralniuR the slough by
which about one thousand acres of
valuable farm land will be added to
the county's area Of cultivated land
during the coming season.
Ed Knudtson and e. Hussct, both
farmers OF Roberts Co., a-e the pro.
moters 0f TIE scheme. The article
adds that u survey of the proposed
ditch has demonstrated the prac-
tibllitv Of the project. 1t IS shown
that by The draining Of this slough
over 1000 acres Of rand Will be re-.
claimed. The land is now covered
with water anu rushes and is practi.
callv worthless. It is planned to ASK
the county commissioners to author
,xe the construction OF the canal and
tax up the Costs TO the lands to I've re-
claimed.
Petitions with this object Ia view,
lahd which will bear the signatures Of
practically every resident of the two
townships. will be presented to the
county commissioners at their regular
meeting In April for the necessary ac-
tion. ltis thought the cost M re.
claiming the tract will run from s3,--
600 to $4,000
The proposed ditch will be about
ten la,les in length. The deepest
cut necessary in order to carry the
water from the slough into Traverse
lake will be ITO feet. but for the most
part the canal will be much shall.
lower.
! When re s.lalmed the land, at the
