more young folks this academy will
have much larger number.
This will beat any factory that could
find an opening here.
Not only does a college or academy
help town financially, as indicated
by the foregoing, but it is of untold
value in social way-an uplift and an
attraction to any community. A strong
faculty Of upright, educated people,
together with lot Of young, energetic
and ambitious students, doing some-
thing constantly for entertainment,
for athletics and for education, will
boost for town. Every citizen of Hot
Springs who has young people growing
up or who is interested in the progress
and we'll being of Hot Springs should
get to boosting for the academy. Let
every body become booster and talk
for anything and everything that will
help the town, then the knockers will
go into hiding.
After we get this academy Hot
Springs proposes to continue the boost
ing habit and 60 after the Odd Fellows
Home-and get it. Let everybody
boost. Our town must grow or die
and it will not do the latter. It is
improving every day, but it should 90
ahead faster, and it will with proper
encouragement. 3

PAssL1BRARYTAx RESOLUTIONS.

rs Il A Z.
City Council Passes Resolution Pro-
viding for Submission of Library Levy.
At its regular meeting Monday night
the city council by vote Of six yeas
and one nay voted to submit to the
voters at the city election next month
the question as to whether levy of
one and one-half mills shall be made
on every dollar of the assessed valua-
tion of the city for the maintainance
of the public library.
Asimilar resolution was unanimously
tabled q month ago but on It's passage
Monday night Alderman Riordan was
the only one who voted against it. A
large amount of interviewing and argu-
mont by the ladies of the Civic League
and others has been done with the
various aldermen with the above result.
Now it is for the people to decide. If
the resolution carries at the spring
election, the tax will produce about
$3.50 il it is all paid in but it is believed
it will produce at least $500. which will
keep the library running as it is now
very nicely done by private subscrip-
tion, sales and entertainments.
The council further discussed the
street lighting question and hope to
make arrangements for them befere
long.
They also arranged for purchasing
800 worth of trees, which they will
further beautify the city with, and also
arranged for some necessary and COM
mendable improvements at the
park.
The administration is nearing the
end Of the year and the people are
beginning to wonder if Mayor Hargens
will not be q candidate, and ii not who
will make an acceptable successor.
Many improvements we're made
about town during the past year and
there are many more to be made. DR..
Hargens understands what there is to
do-he is ardently in favor of looking
after the peoples interests-andt there
is disposition by many to continue
him as mayor for another term.

The ruling of the Postofice Depart
ment requiring newspapers to con-
duct their subscription accounts
upon practically a cash basis forces
the STAR as we'll as all newspapers
to comply. We desire to .get the
dellnquents to pay up quickly and
as an inducement have. made ar
rangements whereby we can offer
the Northwestern Agriculturalist as
a premium---free to all whe pay in
advance for the Star for a year.
This will be only for limited mum
Der and a limited time It must, be
done at once. You get the finest
agricultural paper published twice
month at Minneapolis for nothing.
Subscribers are required by the post
al laws to be cut off Of the list any
way if they become delinquent for Ia
year. and now why not acquire the
cash in advance habit and get this
benefit. We will apply this to all
cash in advance subscriptions since
Jan l, 1908, but subscribers can not
get this benefit together with other
reduced publications--for they all
cost us extra money.

IuHC IL IL now III b mOSC vigorous
condition is shown by the fact that in
the past two years the presidents house
has been built at cost of s12,O00.O0;
Indebtedness of about s2OOOOOO pro.
vided for; and an endowment of
800, 10000 raised.
The institution now has property
valued at $250,Oo0.0o practically free
from debt and an interest bearing en-
dowment of s1OO,OO0.O0.
Centuary Memorial Hall recently
completed at cost of sIO0,OOO.OO pro-
vides splendid home for a hundred
young ladies and furnishes table board
for all students and teachers who,wish
to board there.
The financial gain to town where
is located q good school may be seen
by the following figures:
The total expenditure of the Uni.
versity last year, exclusive of the
boarding hall, was s45,OOO.OO
The number of persons connected
with the school, faculty, student body
and employees all told, number, seven
hundred ten. Including the summer
school an average of forty weeks is put
in in school life.
Board at $3.50 per week for 71O
persons makes a weekly board bill of
s1775.OO and for 40 weeks S71, 600.
Room rent for 71O persons at s1.5O per
week makes rent bill of s1O65 per
week, and for 40 weeks amounts to
$4,000.
A conservative estimate of other ex.
penditures for items such as laundry.
clothing, stationery, photographs,
dentist, optioian, physician, ETC.. etc.,
would place the figure at not less than
$4,000 for each of the 71O persons,
which would add 100000 more.
Put into more compact form it would
read:
University expense. ....... s45OOc 90
Board bill for 71O persons. ;. 1000 90
Room rent. 426OO 90
Expenditures for clothing
etc.. ETC., 500 each. 100000. 1000 90

All of which passes through the
various business houses of the town
annually.

numerous families who move to a

homes, in order, that they may live in

The eastern owners of the Black
Hills college property and the Dakota
Wesleyan University have practically
gotten together on the price of the
property, but not as much time has
yet been granted for making the pay
ment as was expected. AS it now looks
the whole amount must be raised by
July lst This means some great
hustling in Hot Springs as we'll as
through western Dakota. Rev. DIR.
Hunt, the field agent for Dakota
Wesleyan, has been in Hot Springs for
several days getting matters in shape
to begin active work with Supt. Dolli-
YER. They will make Hot Springs their
headquarters.
The pledge from HotSprings is $1,000
good portion of which has already
been subscribed, but there are a
number of citizens not yet called upou
who will be given an opportunity to
show what they think of getting such
an institution here. Every resident
will certainly be benefited by secur-
ing such an educational institution
here-backed oy an already strong
university. It will be far different
from the trials of the old college. The
county is older, young people have
grown up and want the advantage Of
higher education. Before there were
but few young people in all this western
country. Now the woods and the
prairies are full of them, aud they are
allseeking an education. This academy
will attract students not only from
South Dakota, but from Wyoming and
Nebraska. Our climate and health
resort advantages will appeal to many.
