CHEAP rioNEy IN SOUTH DAKOTA

1t will surprise the farmers of
South Dakota to learn that they
are able to borrow money from
the permanent school fund of the
state for exactly the same inter-
est which the Pennsylvania
railroad company has to ply on
its recent 80 million dollar loan.
The nominal rate of interest to
the Pennsylvania is 4 IL per
cent, but the terms of the loan
are such as to increase the actual
interest rate to five per cent,
which is what the state asks OF
q South Dakota farmer who Dor
rows money from school fund.
South Dakota now has about five
million dollars out at int srest in
this fund. and every dollar is
snapped up as soon as it comes
into the fund Not penny Of it
can beloaned outside OF the state
and the South Dakota borrowers
prefer to make use of this fund,
and leave the interest in the state.
The presence Of q great fund
of this hind has n diract tandan.
cy to keep interest rate down in
the state, aud will 50 operate for
years Ia the future. Much wis.
dom has been shown by the
people of the state in handling
this fund which is growing year
by year and which in the end
will reach a total of about thirt
millions. Daily Argus-Leader.

every state In which Indians
have taken their allotments te
purchase liquor there has been
uncertainty as to whether or moi
the federal courts had authority
to regard the land included in
allotments the same as the reg.
uIar Indian reservations.
Notwithstanding the Brewer
decision there has never been
any question about the govern
ment having authority to arrest
and prosecute In dians or other
persons who take liquor to the
regular Indian reservations, but
whether the land included in the
allotments given to Indians
should be treated the same as
the regular reservations has been
q disputed question.
The decision of the United
States supreme court therefore
means that while Indians who
have taken allotments are enti.
tied to purchase liquor in the
town adjacent to their homes or
elsewhere they cannot lawfully
take liquor TO allotted lands any
more than they can to Indian
and the United
States courts will have power in
future topunish Indiansor whites
who take liquor to allotted lands
the same as those whoare charg.
ed with introducing liquor into
The regular Indian reservations.
