workingmen Getting Wise.

Minneapolis Journal: The visits
OF delegations Of railroad employees to
Washington to protest against the
passage Of a rate regulation bill on
the score that such legislation will
be likely to result in lowering their
wages have not been very numerous
of late. Ii any one had ever taken
any stock in that argument against
railroad rate regulation he would
have had difficulty i'm reconcilinp it
with the tremendous activity in
railroad building during the past
year, the prospective increase in
mileage durln9 the coming year and
the unprecedented demand for rail-
road equipment. Evidently the rail-
roads themselves are not anticipat-
ing any slump i'm business OF. ANY con-
ditions where the carrying trade
will not be profitable.

Philadelphia Record: After knock
ing most of the reform out of the
consular service bill the senate has
passed it. The senate has no obiec-
lions to a new classification Of the
consulates, nor to the increase Of
salaries, nor has it much objection
to giving the president power to
transfer consuls from post to post.
But the provision for filling the more
important positions by promotion
from the lower and regulating ap-
pointments threatened some of the
patronage, and it went out.

BETTER FIRE PROTECTION
A Chemical Fire Engine is One of
the Necessities That Mitchell
Ought to Have.

AT the meeting Of the city council
the question Of the purchase Of a
chemical fire engine was informally
discussed in d moderate degree, and
the Businessmen of the city are BE-
hind the movement to have this ad-
ditional fire protection Installed.
The chemical engine is to be found
IN every good city the size of Mitchell,
and its effectiveness has been proven
on many occasions.
1t is usually the case that the first
alarm brings the chemical TO the
scene of action and many a fire is
overcome and much damage saved
by the presence of this machine.
What appeals particularly to the
business man, so far as the chemical
is concerned, is tlhe.fact that there is
very little damage done to IA stock of
goods. Where the fire department
has to rely solely upon the water
supply for the putting out of fires
there cannot help but be, in a great
many instances, more damage from
water than by fire, and to obviate
this it is the suggestion that the
city purchase a chemical engine.
A petition is being circulated
among the business men of the city
to be presented to the council urging
the purchase of a chemical engine
as a better protection against the
ravages of fire. 1t is said that a good
engine can be purchased for about
$500.

STATE MAKING SHIRTS
Industry at Sioux Falls Penitentiarv
is Proving Source of Good
Revenue Right Away.

Yanhton Gazette: The great state
OF South Dakota, through it's board
of charities and corrections, has
scored a great success i'm a little bust
ness venture 1T undertook at it's
Sioux Falls penitentiary. For years
the state prisoners have been set to
cutting stone and after tile stone
had been cut there was absolutely no
market for it. The board decided
on a change and after investigation.
and at the expense of SO, 600 a shirt
factory was started, in which three
kinds Of shirts were manufactured.
The manager takes the output oft the
boards hands and ships it to Mon
tana, California and the east, find
ing its own markets for the product
of the factory. The new enterprise
gives employment to 12O out OF 22O
mel in the state penitentiary and
the prisoners do we'll on the work.
They are allowed a little remune.a-
tion which is handed them when they
leave the institution. The plant
costs on an average about 81. 200 per
month, which nets a profit Of $40 to
the state per month. The hoard is
very we'll pleased with the result of
its venture and considers the employ
ment as far superior to the old way
OF keeping most Of the prisoners 10
their cells for want of occupation, to
the great danger not only Of health,
but reason itself. W. NJ. Powers Of
this city, member of the board of
charities and corrections gave this
paper the above details and they no
doubt will be found interesting to
citizens of the state.

Oil Supervising Coal.

Portland Oregonian: The Harri-
man system is to install oil burning
apparatus on all of its locomotives
running out of Portland. Tt is ca
pected to effect a saving of 25 per
cent by the use CT this fuel and there
Will also be 2 further saving in time
and expense OF handling it. The
discovery OF oil IN California has rev.
olntionized the transportation BUSH
ness of the Pacific coast, and any
advantage held by the northern
ports In the way of close proxln ity
to coal mines has been nulIifed by
the discovery of the new fuel.

half of which were new ones.
President Erion in calling the
meeting to order said that this would
be in the nature of an old fashioned
class meeting of the Methodist
variety, and he called on Col. f. M.
Wood, the auctioneer, to lead off with
the first speech. MIR. Wood compli-
mented this state on the splendid
outlook it had for the future and
maintained that the price of land
would be raised in the years to come
just as it had i'm Illinois and Iowa.
He spoke on the idea OF keep ing up
the standard OF thoroughbred stock.
For an hour perhaps, a half dozen
men occupied the floor talking on
matters of stock interest and the
discussions e entertaining and
profitable.
President Erion announced the
appointment Of G. f. RAYMOND as
superintendent of the stock pavilion
in this city.

EDITORS ARE COMING
Pencil Pushers Will be the Guests o
Mitchell Three Days Beginn-
ing Feb. 90.

For several years it has been the
desire Of the people of Mitchell to
entertain the members of the South
Dakota Press Association, but
through a chain of circumstances it
has been impossible to carry out the
wish until the present. An invita-
tion was extended to the officers OF
the association TO come to Mitchell
for the winter meeting on a date
which would be convenient to the
editors. Having but recently re-
turned from Il jannt to the city of
Washington the editors had not
really gathered themselves together
for another meeting so soon, but it
has finally been decided by the OFF,
GERS to hold the meeting in Mitchell
Feb. %, %, "a.
The winter meeting of the associa-
tion is one devoted to business with
little pleasure mixed In. Papers of
interest to the craft are read and
more or less business is transacted.
1t is to be hoped that as many Of
the association as possible will avail
themselves of the opportunity to
come to Mitchell for the winter
meeting, and, moreover, that the
editors will not fail to bring their
wives on this occasion as the enter
tainment which will be provided
will he fully as enjoyable for them
as the male portion of the associa-
ton. Mitchell has an exceedingly
warm spot for the newspaper men of
the state, for she has been the re-
cipient of many very kind favors at
the hands OF the press in years past
and it is desired on this occasion to
repay i'm a measure a portion of the
obligations.
Get up some copy in advance,
boys, turn the Office over to the de-
vii and come to Mitchell for the
meeting.

AMOUNTED TO OVER $4,000
Stock Sales for the Two Days Was
Very Salts factory and Run
up to High Figures.

o. AL t he convent ions which have
been held i'm Mitchell during the past
fifteen years, we never saw IA gather
ing of men who went home as happy
and %contented as did the stockmen
over the result of their first meeting
in their new pavilion. The crowd
was enthusiastic all the time, there
was a feeling of good fellowship pre-
valent, and the interest i'm the dis
cussions OF stock topics was unabated.
In the meetings every man felt that
hs had the privilege of getting up
and saying something or asking ques-
tions OF those better informed and
everything that was said recorded
for the benefit of the stockmen.
Elmer Stenwall, a stenographer, was
employed to take the notes of the
meeting ard the information that
will be published in book form as the
report OF the meeting will be invalu-
able to the stockmen.
The stock sales were particularly
successful. If there had been a third
more Dol in the sale pavilion it
would have been crowded in its seat
ing capacity and every day hundreds
were unable to get in. AS a starter
it Was supposed that the building
would be large enough the first year
but it proved its %inadequacy i'm
mediately. and the stockmen can we'll
go before the legislature and ask for
an appropriation to put up a struc-
ture twice the size that they now
lave, and the legislature would only
be doing the right thing in passing
such an appropriation.
The sale of Shorthorns, which
numbered AZ, amounted to 84,61O, an
average Of sl1O; q Herefords sold for
80, 1855. an average of SlO7; II head of
Aberdeen Angus sold for $500, an
average OF s68.33: 3 head of Red
Polled brought 1925, averaging SIS.
The total amount Of the cattle sold
was $3.50. Including the sheep and
swine sold the dav before the result
of the sales was &c., SOB. 1t was all
bought by South Dakota farmers and
the stock was all owned in this state.
Quite a good deal of the stock was
bought by Dawson county farmers,

making the largest purchase when
he bought Orva, a Shorthorn bull.
for $3.50, ueing the second in highest
prices paid. Dan Lille, of Perry
township, vas the heaviest buyer at
the sale, making eight purchases.
Mr.. Lille expects to take his cattle
on to the reservation west of Cbam-
berlain and establish y ranch. as he
has disposed of his property in Perry.
o. q. Cassem bought a Shorthorn
COW, which he says is to be the
foundation for ii Shorthorn herd
which he is going to establish. Mr..
Cassem will equip a portion of the
school section, which he owns. with
good buildings and increase the bust
ness steadily. Among the other
Dawson county farmres who bong bit
cattle are A. b. Tyler, Clyde Kimble
R. Ellis, Frank Williams, A. b. Test
and Thos. Rogers.
