WAIT FOR LEGISLATURE.
Eastern Man Wants to Give Library
to Brookinqs School.

Pierre, S. D., March 23.-President
Goodner of the state board Of regents
of education went to Brookings where
a meeting Of the board is being held.
One OF the matters which will be
brought before the board at the meet
ing will be a proposition from an un-
known eastern man to present to the
state university $4,000 library build-
ing on conditions that the state will
bind itself to provide for maintenance
and books $4,000 a year. or, in lieu of
that to provide $1,000 year for books
and provide for the maintenance in any
way they may see At. The proposition
comes through President Droppers OF
the university. and the questions con-
fronting the board are whether the
legislature would see fit to provide the
SO asked If called upon to
do so. AS a board the regents would
have no legal power to grant the mon-
ey for maintenance, nor could they in
any way enforce such action If they
should accept the offer.

Lands Few Years Ago spurned Are
Eagerly Grabbed Now

Lands a Few Years Ago spurned Are
Eagerly Grabbed Now.
B-itton S. D.. March 29.-Everythin2
indicates that there will be a great rush
next month for lands in the abandoned
Fort Sisseton military reservation. near
here, which are to be offered for sale dur
ing April
When the territory embraced in the
prosperous and growing state Of South
Dakota WAS yet an almost uneXplored re-
gion. the United States government de-
cided to establish military post in this
locality. and selected a site for the post
in the southeastern portion Of what is now
Marshall county, of which Britton is tbs
county seat.
On the site selected were erected ex-
pensve buildings for the shelter of con-
siderable force of soldiers, who were in
sufficient numbers to hold In check the
thousands of Sioux warriors who then
roamed at will through this entire region.
The brick for of the buildings erected
at the post was hauled by OK team from
st. Cloud, Mimi, a distance of nearly
three hundred miles. Brick was burned on
the ground for the remainder Of the build
tngs except such as were constructed of
stone.
A number of years ago the military post
was abandoned by the government. and
the land which had been set aside under
the name of the Fort Sisseton military re-
servation, was coded by the United States
government to the state of South Dakota.
The land is now part of the state school
lands, the proceeds from which go toward
the support of the public school system
of South Dakota, which before many more
years have passed will be entirely self
supporting.
The Fort Sisseton military reservation
embraced aftotal of about $4,000 acres OF
rolling prairie land, with few small
lakes. The greater portion of the land is
adapted to the raising of general crops,
the soil being of a very rich character.
For number of years the land has been
leased by the state to cattlemen for graz
ing purposes. Much of 1T still is under
lease.
However, the leases having expired on
the larger share of one township, it was
decided by the state school land author
tiles to offer the tract for sale during
April. The tract to be sold will afford
opportunities for farming and grazing pur-
poses which cannot be furnished by any
other country In the state.
The sale and settlement of the land
will prove of great benefit to Britton and
Marshall county in general.

What Senator Dick Wrote in Reply to
President Gompers.

Following is the reply of Senator
Charles A. Dick OF Ohio, author of the
Dick militia law, in response to letter
from President Gompers asking the
senator where he stood on the question
of labor:
while numerous official demands
prevent me from undertaking a spe-
cific discussion in detail of the griev-
ance bill, it will not fail of my care
full consideration. l will say cheerfully
1 favor at all times the fullest degree
of just recognition for labor's cause,
and | shall be ready to support any
official action in legislative form or
otherwise that is demonstrated to be
really in labor's interests, at the same
time having in mind the necessity OF
avoiding any misguided action that
might defeat the very object most de-
sired
Goshamighty. Well give a prize
copy of Dicks militia law to the first
man who comes into the Office with an
explanation of what Dick said. Did
he mean to dodge?
