NEW LAW TO BREW TROUBLE.
Hiring Of Teachers for New Term
vii Be Sin Air"

HIRING OF teachers Tor New Tern,
Will Be Gin Air"
According to a decision Of Attorney
General Pyle, rendered under a form
er change in school laws of the state
and the provisions of the school law
of last winter, there is material for a
great deal of trouble in the matter Of
selection of teachers in this state for
the next school year.
Under the old system, with two
members Of the board of education Sc
lected from each ward in a city, half
the membership changed each year,
and the board was continuous. Under
those conditions it has become the
custom of the boards to select their
teachers early in the year, on the
grounds that the teachers desired to
know as early as possible what they
might expect for the next year, and
board was in a better position to
know which of the old teaching force
they desired to retain. than would
new members.
Under the provisions of section 179
OF the new law, the old boards are
wiped out, and a board of five mem
bers to be selected at large takes their
place. This provision leaves no con-
tinuing board, and provides an en-
tirely new organization for the o n
troll of the schools. The date of cleo
ton is also changed from that of the
regular city election to the third
Tuesday in June.
In this selection Of a complete new
board is where the trouble is likely
to show up. Old boards over the state
are following the usual custom, and
making selections Of the teaching
force for the next school year. which
will be entirely outside Of their juris-
diction. and an inquiry to Attorney
General Clark In regard to their
rights brings a reference to an opin-
ion by Attorney General Pyle in 1899,
in which he holds: THE school year
begins July l Of each year. the board
had the right to control and manage
the schools would be prevented from
employing such teachers. According
ly it has been held that the school
board, acting in good faith. can make
q contract for the services Of a teach
or where the term commences during
the life Of the board hiring such teach
ers. but cannot make a contract for
the teaching OF a term which begins
during the term OF their successors"
This construction would leave the
teaching force in towns in the air I'M
til after the new board assumes con-
troll: practically would annul any CON
tracts made by present boards, and in
case where the present board had Sc
lected a teacher mo- satisfactory to
the incoming board. 1t will open the
Xav 10 serious tangleS.

VIII Work for Favorable Vote on Law.
A number Of ministers and Others
interested in the presentation of the
referendum divorce law at the fail
election, met at Huron. The discus
sion was quite animated and a com
mittee was named to summarize and
repar facts for publication and dis
tribution throughout the state. These
are to be sent to the secretary OF the
committee, DR.. W. II. Thrall OF Huron.
The opinion prevailed that If the
people Of the state were made &C
quainted with the facts as they eX-
list concerning the present divorce
matters in South Dakota, there would
be no doubt as to the result at the ap-
preaching election.
Bishop Hare Of Sioux Falls stated
that ~ninety-nine out of every n hun
drea who came to Sioux Falls from
other states, for the purpose OF pro-
curing divorces, leave the state as
soon as the decree is issued. 1t was
his opinion also that the people, If
rightly informed of the facts, would
unite In removing the stigma OF dl-
voroe that now attaches to the name
OF South Dakota.

COLD PLUNGE SAVES LIFE.

While striving to rescu the hat of
a m friend, Amos Schook, a well
known resident Of Lyman county,
nearly lost his life.
Desiring to make a visit to Ameri-
can island, Schook and two women
friends decided to make their way
over the railroad bridge, which is
composed OF trestle work. They had
proceeded only a short distance when
they heard the rumble of an ap-
preaching train. Realizing that time
was not to be lost Schook hurried the
two women to the outer edge of the
bridge and ordered them to seat
of the ties. He seated himself beside
them. The train, upon rushing by
them, formed a suction which drew
the hat from the head Of one OF the
women.
Schook partially arose and grabbed
for the hat which was floating nearly
against the rapidly moving train. The
next instant he was struck a violent
blow on the head by the step of one
of the cars. He was made unconscious
and was knocked off the bridge into
the river. The cold water speedily
revived him and his overcoat and
heavy clothing kept him afloat until
he could make his way to shore.
When he reached shore he was near.
ly exhausted, but his cold plunge had
saved his life.

PENALTY is THREATENED.
State Census Superintendent De-
manos More Prompt Returns.

DOane Robinson, superintendent OF
census, has returned from a trip to
the southern part of the state where
he went to look into the question OF
neglect in making the proper sta
tistical returns to the department. On
Investigation he found that the cause
of the delay and neglect is generally
on the part of justices of the peace,
who fail to make a return of the GER
titicates filed with them. In some
cases no returns have been made at
all, and in many cases there is delay
in the work. He is Investigating, and
if he finds that the neglect or delay is
wilful on the part of the officials he
intends to apply the penalty provided
by the vital statistical law, in such
cases, and to find if it is not possible
to get a more prompt service.

LocAToRS vlcrlMIzE MANY,
Land Commissioner Seeks to Stamp
Out Evil.

While the present thrush of settlers
INTO South Dakota has resulted in Sc
curing good homes for many. some
of the evils attending the settling up
of the country are now manifest.
Probably the 0 conspicuous Of
these is the unusual number of land
sharpS and wOuld-be lOcatOrS who
have succeeded in fleeing or deceiv-
ing the newcomers at cut rates"
Steps have been taken by United
States Land Commissioner Roy Scott
for the Camp Crook district to stamp
cut the evil, and to some extent he is
succeeding.
All along the Milwaukee railroad
the small towns are infested with
organized gangs Of these fake locators
who are finding many victims. Every
incoming train is boarded from the
moment it crosses into South Dakota
by the sharps, and hundreds of mis-
locations have been the r esult OF
trusting in their Judgment" Mr..
Scott sen out literature advising
prospective SeLtlerS Gllner TO consult
a United State commissioner or the
lay of the land or to inform them
selves first and make their own lOca-
lions. In numerous instances old set
tiers were asked for aid in making
locations, and while they knew the
land, their unfamiliarity with the sur
veys caused trouble This now is
causing the land Offices a great
amount of additional and troublesome
work.
So far as known, no attempt has
been made by government agents or
individuals to secure the punishment
OF false locators, and many a settler
who thought he had located for a fee
of $25 a choice piece of level land has
found himself N a rocky knoll.
Complete surveys of most Of the
land in this section of the country
were made last winter, and the in
formation Is here for the asking II
the settlers take the trouble to learn.

State Land Returns Show Bigger De-

The lease returns being made by
the different counties to the state land
department show a healthy demand
for state lands this year. In Butte
county where a short time ago no at
tempt was made to lease lands. the
report shows eighty-fve sections
taken. In Bookings county some OF
the leases went as high as $3.50 an
acre a year for hay lands. The re-
ports generally from all the counties
show an increased demand for the
land with better prices for the leases,
and the result will be a larger reve-
nue. from leases than in former years.
