Arbor Day Proclamation.

In keeping with useful and worthy
custom, not without its sentiment and
beauty, |, Coe l. Crawford, Governor
of South Dakota, do hereby designate
and set apart Friday, April Goth, A. D.
| 1907, as Arbor Day.
| earnestly urge the general obser-
vance of the purposes of the day by
the generous planting of trees. Tree
planting and tree culture will richly
reward every one who is willing to give
the time and labor required. Nothing
much that pleases the eye, and comforts
the heart as beautiful trees and
fine shrubbery. Nothing else will
so relieve the naked prairies
of the withering drought of midsummer
and the raging winds of midwinter.
Let the teachers and pupils of our
public schools on this day plant trees
upon school grounds and campus and
in the public parks, and also prepare
and execute fitting literary and music
al programs.
"What land mark so congenial as tree
Repeating its green legend every spring
And with yearly ring,
Recording the fair seasons as they fee
Type of our brief, but still renewed
Immortality"
In Testimony Whereof, l have here
unto set my hand and caused the Grea,
Seal of the State of South Dakota te
be affixed.

Edpemont Affairs.

At the citizens meeting on Tuesday
night it was unanimously agreed to
have big celebration on the Fourth of
July and the initial plans were laid.
Last year we gave up our celebration
to help the neighboring towns, now we
intend to have one of the biggest cele-
brations Fall River county has ever
had and our citizens will do it, If you
are going anywhere on the Fourth, you
had better make plans to come here.
After this issue we change into an
eight PACED paper. We shall print
four of them at home, and from the
present outlook we shall soon print
semi.weekly. We believe in being
ahead of the town, and so make the
change. Our people are beginning to

OF INTEREST TO TAXPAYERS.
Meeting of State Auditors Adjusts and
Fixes Property Values.

Meeting of State Auditors Adjusts and
Fixes Property Values.
County Auditor Parks returned Sat
urday from his meeting with the Coun-
ty Auditors Association in Pierre on
March Goth.
1t had been feared that, as no appro-
priation had been made for this meet
ing through some oversight, it would
be a failure, but as a matter of fact it
was the best ever, both in attendance
and work done. Though only about
twenty auditors we're present, they
represented the largest and best among
the counties of the state and even the
most extreme county, in point of dis
tance by rail from Pierre, that of Butte,
was ably represented.
Gov. Crawford was very much sur
prised and pleased over the attendance
and interest taken in the meeting,
telling the members so in a very fine
address he made them.
The auditors met with the State
Board of Assessment and Equalization,
which consists of the governor treasur-
er, auditor, commissioner of school
and public lands and attorney general,
of which board the governor is chair
man and the auditor is secretary.
They had gotten valuations shaped
up pretty we'll, so it did not take long
to adjust the little differences that
arose, caused by the different view
points of the various auditors.
A general raise in the valuation of
all agricultural lands was fixed, Fall
River and Custer counties remaining
the lowest, that of $3.50; Meade and
Butte being next with $3.50, and Pen
nington and Lawrence being placed at
$500 The valuation of other lands
was not changed.
| The valuations of personal property
caused the most discussion and was
finally settled as follows: Horses, "A"
class, SIS; "B'' class, s35; stallion or
jack. 20 times the service fee; cattle.
ga" class, 81; "B" class, sl2; &c" class
SIS; mules, $50; sheep, %; swine, So;
automobiles, $500. Practically no
change was made in the valuation of
other personal property over that of
last year. After the meeting with the
state board was over, the county audi
tors reorganized by electing our own
auditor, j. Il. Parks, president; G. L..
| Kundert. of Canton vice presidents;
and p. j. Murphy, of Brookings, sec
retary and treasurer, and elected an
executive committee of six members.
Various plans and methods of
assessment and collection work were
discussed and it is believed much good
will come out OF the conference next
year as this year bore fruits of last
years meeting
Mr.. Parks had the pleasure of Cover
nor Crawford's company most of the
way from Huron to Pierre on the train
and was given an assurance that the
oversight of the lack of appropriation
would be remedied, as the Governor
thoroughly appreciated the Importance

WHAT IS Mollycoddle :?

That's. the question that seems 10 bother lots of people nowadays. Let us tell you what we consider IL means.
 A molIycoddle is a person who ob- jects to carry home a pound or our nice tasting 27-cent butter. NO, sirree, he'd rather pay 30 cents right at his door even if the quality isn't near as nice as the kind we sell.
 Another mollycoddle is the man who starts about this time or the wear looking for political job, and believes what every politician tells him. Yes, every promise made hlm he believes it to be gospel truth.
 The mollycoddle that we are suro we know something about and who we are sure positively Is real mol lycoddle, is an umpire at base bali game who hasn't brains enough to last him a week, yet he can cheat, rob, sass; in fact, he can do just as he pleases, and if the players who have forgotten more than the um- nire ever knew should remonstrats, he can fine them whatever he thinks proper; but the ones who make base ball rules and don't fix it so that an umpire that proves to be an M. C.. should lose his pay, are the very worst kind of mollycoddles. Say, we wouldn't have any mollycoddles ii all umpires and politicians would drink nothing stronger than the kind we sell.
