AS many thinking persons in North
cumberland county predicted, the coal
region saloon keepers, who banded to
gether to observe the liquor laws after
being threatened with exposure, have
violated their promise, as well as the
solemn oath taken at the original grant
ing of licenses, and yesterday Super
intendent Riley, of the Anti-Saloon
league, appeared before Justice Vim
cent, of Northumberland, and swore
out warrants for the arrest of num-
Der of Shamokin saloon keepers for
selling on Sunday.
Rev. Riley, before the last session
of license court, arrested ninety rum
sellers Of ShamOkin and Mount Carmel
for violation of the law, but on paying
fines and promising to be good the cul-
prits were spared further trouble
At license court Judge Savidge took
hand by warning the saloon men, and
suggesting that they form an anti Sun
day selling association. Deputy Pro-
thonotary Rietz visited the coal re-
gions for the express purpose of wit
Messing the promises of the sellers to
obey the law
The pith of the whole situation lies
in the fact, generally recognized among
the citizens of Northumberland coun-
ty that there is an Outrapaous Dumhar
Of saloons in the coal region end of
the county and a. long as saloons
must depend on an average of less than
200 persons--men. women and children
to support each one, there will be
cut-throat competition or violation of
the law in an effort to win trade.
Six warrants were issued at Riley's
instance and more are TO follow.

In a practice" Game of Foot
ball at Mitchell Last
Thursday
THE MITCHELL BOYS
ARE POOR LOSERS
They Used Rough Tactics With
Everything in Their Favor

Not having representative at
Mitchell we have been unable to se-
cure writeup of the football game
Thursday in which the State Agricul-
ture college team defeated the Wes-
leyian university eleven. In the fol-
lowing report of the game taken from
the Mitchell Republican the reader
will readily see that the reporter in
tended to smooth out all the wrinkles
and make as many excuses as possi-
BILE for the defeat of the university.
BY so doing several misrepresentation
have crept in.
First, while Mitchell lost the ball
several times on what they called
"fumbles" in reality the player when
tackled had the ball knocked from
his grasp and BrOokings captured it.
Second, Brookings more frequently
broke through Mitchell's line and
captured the man carrying the ball for
loss than Mitchell did Brookings.
Third, from the time the first play
was made Mitchell had the wind in
her favor while Brookings had to punt
against the strong wind and this pre-
vented them from making some of
their best gains. The acknowledge
ment made that Brookings after punt
ing the ball almost invariably secured
it for gains shows that this play was
one of Bookings strong points as we
we'll know.
The fact Of the matter is that the S.
ID. A. G. team outplayed Mitchell at
every point, even taking the Republic
can report for it which is given be-
low:
Mitchell lost out by her inability to
handle the ball properly and in not
receiving Brookings' punts as she
should have done. The scoring for
the visitors was almost entirely due to
MitChell's fumbles and the luck the
Brookings men had in getting the ball
after their own punts. The following
is a comparison of the work done by
the two teams: Mitchell fumbled 5
ing and end runs ID. w. carried the
ball 81 yards, S. d. A. c. SO. The
average return made sby the visitors
after kick off and punts were slightly
better than that of the home team.
The ID. w. men were dOwned foT loss
only three times while they caught
the visitors behind their line more
than 20 times. Mitchell lost 10 yards
in penalties, Brookings was set back
80. In the punting Hardy, who
kicked for Mitchell had - average of
10 yards better than Caughlan, who
punted for Brookings. After the latter
punted, however, his own men usual
ly got the ball. In all S. ID. A. G.
made IA yards in this way and this
fact accounted for their first touch
down, which was made about the mid
die OF the first half They secured the
second by blocking place kick and
Atkinson, who picked up the ball,
made 90 yard run for the touchdown.
MitchelPs. score was made two min
utes before the game closed when
Hardy, in spite of the wind, kicked
the ball squarely over the goal from
the 80 yard line.

JAMES II. CHEATHAM

James II. Cheatham, one OF Brook
ings county's substantial citizens,
died at Spokane, Wash, last Saturday
morning. He had been sufferer
from Bright's disease during the
greater part of the past year, but sew
eral weeks ago he had sufficiently re-
covered to attempt the long trip to
Spokane, where a number OF his rel
atives reside, but the trip was hard
one for person in such an enfeebled
condition and he steadily grew worse,
the end coming Saturday. Mrs.
Cheatham who accompanied him to
the coast, will bring his remains to
Aurora, expecting to arrive this even
ing, the funeral services being held
in that place tomorrow friday after
noon, at O'Clock, at the NJ. f. church
and interment will be made in the
Aurora cemetery.
James Harvey Cheatham was born
at Galena, Illinois, November 20, lS44,
son OF Demetrius and Charity
Cheatham. Mr.. Cheatham spent his
boyhood days in Wisconsin and Min
nesota, and was educated at the public
schools and the Winona, Minn. nor
NAL school. In 1873 he came to South
Dakota, taking up homestead in
Parnell township this county. To this
homestead he added from time to time
other land until at the time OF his
death he was heavy zeal estate owner
in Brookings county.
Mr.. Cheatham was united in mar
riage to Miss Sarah Phelps, a native
OF Steuben county, N. Y. and their
