Quarterly Report of the Chief of
Police Shows the Department
Has Been Decidedly Busy.
NO SUPPORT FOR TRAMPS
Chief O'Hare Urges the City Council to
Take Immediate Steps to Install
Police Patrol System as Aid
to the Police Department

Chief of Police owen O'Hare has
filed with the city clerk his first quar-
terly report as head Of the police de-
partment Of the city, and the report
shows that the department has been
decidedly busy during the three
months just closed, and that efficient
work has been done in protecting the
city from the ravages of criminals.
The report shows that during the
quarter the officers made 194 arrests.
Intoxication led the list of causes of
arrest with 101 cases, assault was sec
ond with 19 cases, and larceny third
with 10.
OF the long list Of men arrested, 90
paid fines in the justice courts, 81
were turned out, were bound over to
the circuit court, and Z were turned
over to officials from other cities or
counties. OF the number that were
turned out nearly all Of them were
common tramps, and Chief O'Hare
has declined to make these tramps the
wards of the city by sending them to
the county jail to serve out terms for
petty ofenses. He has discovered a
more effective way of dealing with
them. The tran1ps are now taken to
the city limits and dubbed out of
town and the number is rapidly dimin-
ishing. If these men should be sent
to the county jail to serve ont terms
for intoxication and similar offenses
the jail would be filled to OVERLOOKING
most of the time and the city would
be forced to pay large sum for the
care Of the tramps. The police de-
partment turned over to the city
treasury $172 collected from fines dur
ing the quarter.
The report shows that during the
three months stolen property to the
amount of $775 was recovered and re-
stored to owners, and added to this 90
bicycles were picked up and turned
over to their owners and fifteen lost
children were found.
The chief, in closing his report,
made an appeal to the city officials to
take some Immediate steps for the in
sta1lation of the proposed patrol sys-
tenn, and he declared that the force
could be made much more efficient if
this system was purchased by the
city. The cost of the system is esti-
mated at about Sc, COO.
!! The report Of the local police de-
partment for the quarter will compare
favorably with reports presented in
any of the cities of the state. Chief
O'Hare feels that he is handicapped
on account of the few men on the
force, and it is probable that when
the next tax levy is made some pro-
vision will be made for an increase in
the number of police officials.

TO FORMULATE PLATFORM
Candidates to Meet at
Madison on Sept. 25th


On Tuesday, September Is, the
candidates for state offices, for the
Senate and the Assembly and the
hold over senators meet in Madison
Ito frame platform under the pro-
visions of the new primary election
law.
A discussion Of the proposed planks
prior to that date is in order and the
politicians are beginning to consider
what kind of platform would best
suit the voters of the state.
The replies thus far have been few,
the candidates apparently not having
given the subject of the platform much
thought as yet, or else wanting to
hear from the party leaders before
giving expression to their own in
dividua1 ideas. The few that have
been received would seem to indicate
Ia desire for harmony in the party
after the bitterness and rancor of the
past few years. Advancement along
the lines Of corporation control is de-
manded, however.
United States senators and members
of congress will not participate IN
the convention, it being the evident
intention of the trainers Of the law
that state issues only are to be con-
sidered. Congressman Esch, of La
Crosse, and jenkins, of Rhinelander,
have had correspondence recently in
regard to possible gathering
Of the congressional candidates for
the purpose of Formulating platform
on the national issues and mapping
out cooperating campaign to allow
the different candidates to aid each
other whenever possible. No definite
arrangements have been made as yet,
however.

WOMAN FOREsTERs TO MEET
Kenosha Court Will Participate in
National Gathering al Milwaukee

Kenosha Court Will Participate in
National Gathering at Milwaukee
The national convention of the Wo-
mems Catholic Order of Foresters
will be held in Milwaukee next week,
opening Sept. Is with solemn high
mass at the cathedral. More than
700 deleg ates, including the high
court officers will be present. Each
court sends one delegate. They will
come from all parts Of the United
States.
The order numbers a little over 50,-
100 women, and it is unique in several
respects. It's members are all of one
faith, no one but a Catholic being
eligible. The level" or "fat" plan
of assessment is used intead Of the
graded. It has been found success
full, and seems to have more advo-
Gates IN the order at the present time
than in years past, the graded plan"
having been proposed and voted
down at several conventions. The
cost of assessments for 81, 900 was a
trif1e less in 1905 than in 1904, and so
far 1906 promises to be even less.
Wisconsin comes second IN member
ship, and the Milwaukee delegates
will make an effort to secure a mem
Der on the high board, as they feel
Wisconsin is entitled to one, or more.
Milwaukee. has fourteen courts, West
Allis has one. The first court ia
Milwaukee was a, German court in ST.
Mary's parish, court 161.
A number of important questions
will come before the convention,
among them estate jurisdictions" a
change from biennial to triennia1 con-
ventions, as the expense for so large
number of delegates is great.
Change of plan of assessments, and
the extension of the order into Canada
will also come up for action. Mrs.
Elizabeth Rodgers, Of Chicago, high
chief ranger of the order, will pre-
side.

FARM NEWS and FARM LoRE
For Free Alcohol
~ GEO. B. DAILY

The agricultural press has been
from the beginning of the recent agi-
tation the most insistent for the repeal
of the tax on industrial alcohol. The
repeal would bring far larger adyan-
tages to the farming population, col
lectively, than to manufacturing in
terests, much as the later would gain
thereby. The use of power in various
operations of the farm has been in
creasing yearly, and has been greatly
facilitated by the multiplication of
little gasoline engines of from two to
twenty-five horse power, supplied at
remarkably low prices as compared
with those demanded for steam en-
gines a few years ago. Remove the
tax on alcohol, and the substitution of
that fluid for gasoline would not only
save immense sums in the operation
OF existing apparatus, but would lead
to a general rush for new equipment.
Having the power, the ingenious
farmer would not be satisfied to allow
it to remain unused except for ordin-
airy farm purposes. 1t would be made,
as in Europe, the basis of numerous
small manufacturing enterprises, thus
still further diversifying the occupa-
tions of the farmer and his family and
"hands." This calling forth of new
faculties, and the corresponding in
crease of revenue, would make still
further attractive an already increas-
ingly seductive American country
life.-Pioneer Press.

tion farm, the minimum size IN TINS
country, was more profitable than the
larger ones operated by the average
farmer. Figures were submitted ana
and met general approval showing
that a quarter section farm properly
farmed would net the owner S2,ooo
annually, as much as a county once
paws. In order to make the farm net
this amount the native pasture must
90 and old fields seeded to bronze grass,
forty acres in pasture and forty in
meadow. The balance Of the quarter
in corn with the exception of a small
acreage for potatoes and garden. Ihe
account doesn't state the quantity
and kind of live stock that must enter
into the combination to enable the
farmer single handed to produce the
above mentioned result. However,
this significant verdict of a farm com.
munity is ample proof that wheat
farming is a thing of the past.
The Aberdeen Democrat. (Aberdeen, South Dakota) 1???-1909, 1906-03-09
Native Pasture and Meadow

There seems to be a pretty general
idea among farmers since land has adj
vanced so greatly in value that it
doesnt't pay to retain the native prai-
rie longer for pasture and meadow
purposes. Better farming is coming
to make the cultivated acres more
profitable, while long pasturing seems
to have made the native sod as pro-
ductive of weeds as of grass. The
very profitable crops Of fax which
have recently been raised on new
breaking, and the growing success
with tame grasses and clover on the
older fields, are yearly increasing ar
guments in favor Of turning over the
last of the primal sod. Bronze grass
seed is cheap and a stand is easily Sc
cured, but its value as a pasture grass
is not yet fully determined. Few
who have experimental with it for
mellow purposes have formed a good
opinion of it. Alfalfa will be the
meadow of the future, and that future
is nearer than is generally anticipated.
Blue grass and clovers, white, alsike
and maybe red, will in time supplant
the bronze grass, the latter serving
only to bridge the period between the
native pasture and the better grasses
to come later.

which was held this yeor at Sioux
Falls, on Thursday evening of last

the southeast part of the state, had

average being s39.05. OF Poland Chi
mas Al head were sold, and of Duroc
Jerseys and Chester Whites six each
we're sold. The top price, 500, was
paid for a Duroc SOW by James Clark,

directors. The next meeting will be

In the Corn Glass

According to the official report of
the U. S. Department of Agriculture
South Dakota's corn crop last year
was 81, 614, 1888 bushels, averaging 81 s
bushels per acre. That means that
South Dakota now produces more corn
than does any southern state except
Kentucky, Tennessee and Texas;
more by 100000 bushels than does
Minnesota, more than Michigan and
only 100000 less than Wisconsin.
South Dakota grows more corn than
all Of the following states combined,
New York, New Jersey, Delaware,
North Dakota, Montana, Washington,
Idaho, Oregon, California, Colorado,
Wyoming, and all New England. Ac-
cording to the census report (page 76
