Frisco Millionaire Tells why tie win Give

San Francisco, June S.-Raphael
WE'LL, local millionaire merchant and
philanthropist, who has imposed a
bachelor tax upon himself, hopes 20
liquidate at one stroke his debt TO the
gentler sox. Beginning on Thursday
1000 needy women will be made happy
with complete outfits Of clothing from
head to foot. No questions viii be
asked, and the recipients Of Mr..
WELLS generosity need not even give
their names To fifty charitable
women he has given the task Of select
ing those 20 be Quilted, and a card
from any one of the judges will entitle
tho holder TO dresses, cloaks, shoes
and lingerie.
summoned an extraordinary ses-
sion of my own legislature and levied
special tax on a bachelor Is the
humorous way in which Mr.. WE'LL
puts it. 81 happened to be the bach
elor. This is one tax levy that there
is no way TO veto.
You see that / have never had the
pleasure of providing for wife. In
a time Of stress such as this, when
heads of families have been put to
their wits ends in attending 10 the
wants of those dependent upon them,
my conscience has troubled me some
what, so / decided to levy the tax.
When 5000 needy women shall have
been supplied with complete outfits of
clothing i shallt feel that / have
done something of my duty toward the
other sex. This is not a matter of
philanthropy, except toward myself
/ want to free myself Of an accusing
! conscience. -
Mr.. WE'LL was asked whether he be-
lieved other bachelors ought to follow
his example.
That is a question which they must
settle in their own minds, said he.
''If they feel that they owe a debt Ia
the women Of the land, and have the
means wherewith TO meet the obliga-
tion, / suppose they ought to settle.
This is a good time for the San Fran
cisco bachelor to square up and balance
| his books. -

News of what appears to be n of
the most unusual land deals in the
history of the northwest was made pub
lie in New Ulm, Mimi, last Friday,
when United States Marshal w. w.
Rich, of st. Paul served subLoenas on
IL widows of soldiers t go to Sioux
Falls, s. d., to testify in the United
States court before Judge John K. Car
land, for the government in its case
against a land company. The women
are innocent victims of what appears to
be a shady transaction. Severed
months ago parties went to New Ulm
from South Dakota and prevailed upon
the women to go to Stanley county,
and take mp homesteads under q law
granting such privilege to the widow
of a deceased soldier. An even dozen
women thought the idea a good one.
they went in q body to Pierre, where
they were received most c~ourteously by
the land agents. They were %quartered
in the best hotels and shown every con-
s~ideration. They were taken to q
United States land Office and signed
papers which they supposed would
entitle them to a homesteader's rights,
then they returned home, and have not
been back since.e The land company,
however, Immediately erected shanties
on the land they had picked out, and, .t
is alleged, stationed hired agents to live
on them. thereby apparently establish
ing an illegal possession. The women
| who went from New Ulm are Anna
Exner, Barbara Classen, Mary Julius,
| Mary Nellie, Emma Niemann, Mary
| Meyer, Mary Schwerr, now of st. Paul,
Dorcas Glass, now of Minneapolis, and
Mrs. @. +. Mowery, now of Mortified.
1t il said hat there are women In every
town between Winona and Pierre who
were made stool pigeons in the deal.

Considerable damage was done late
Saturday evening to the court house
grounds at Aberdeen by a runaway
team, whose owner cannot be learned
as no one can be found who witnessed
the runaway. Sunday morning when
Janitor Klein went to the court house
to see if the fires were all right he
noticed the fence on the west side of
the grounds was badly bent and many
of the picket tops of the costly new
fence broken off. One of the young
elms which was recently planted along
Market street had been toppled 9
and a telephone pole standing near by
broken off. The runaway must have
been a fierce one and much damage
done to the team, but all efforts to dis
cover the identity of the team have
proved fruitless.
While ten years ago the name South
Dakota was used as a synonym of hard
times and the exactions of the loan
shark were a popular theme, today the
conditions are vastly different, as shown
by the statements of the national and
state banks for the call of their con-
dition on Jan. 80 last. The people of
the state are carrying deposits in these
banks to the grand total of more than
$38, 200, 900, the exact figures being $685.
$50, 1857, this on a total population of
455, 1876 means that South Dakotans
have in their banks about $85 for each
resident, white red and black. The
state banks appear co be the most popu-
lar, carrying deposits to the amount of
1923, o88, 775, while the national banks
show $15, 283. 657. In the four months
up to Jan 80, the deposits of the state
banks increased 81, 1896, 1923 and those of
the national banks $1I5. 168.
The saw mill will begin operations
ont at the Hegness place in Norway
township, Lincoln county, this week,
and the piles of lumber that will be cut
from the immense cottonwood out in
Norway would certainly surprise some
fasteners, who think this a naked plain
where sage brush is all the timber to be
found. The fact is that many of the
barns out in that township, and they
are immense Ones, are built mostly of
cottonwood lumber grown right on the
farm. One stick Of timber 12xl2, over
sixty feet long, Is used to hang the hay
fork on i9 liver Twedt's barn. 1t would
pay the farmers to replant their
devasted groves, for time passes rapidly
and but in a few years there would be
another grove Of trees ready to be cut
into lumber. The big Queal lnmbef
firm, that has hundreds and thousands
Of acres Of timber land replant their
land as fast as 1t is denuded, aud the
company figures on cutting a new
timber crop in 40 years.
The sale Of the Hand county school
land, the first time IL has ever been
offered, resulted ia disposing of l.160
acres at the average price of $17 ~an..acre.
A piece northwest of Washington was
bid off at $37 per acre, while a forty q
mile southwest Of Miller brought $32 an
acre. There were no people from a
distance to bid, the sales being made to
residents Of the county. The law per-
mits only a forty-acre lot to be sold at
. time. 1t 10 believed that this plan ia
hindranoe here to the sale Of the land.

Can South Dakota Raise Corn?
The official report Of the corn crop
from the department of agriculture at
Washington must serve as an eye-opener
to the people Of the corn belt who have
not fully appreciated that the compare
lively new state Of South Dakota is q
corn state. We commend the follow
ing table to their consideration. Notice
the number Of states it takes to equal
South Dakota in the production Of corn.
