Mines.

Before very large crowd of people
on the vacant lot of the o. r. & L.
Co., the teams from the Japanese
Baseball League played two interesting
games yesterday. The league has been
using Atkinson Park for its games
since the opening of the series. but de-
cided to change the diamond at a spe-
clal meeting in order to escape the
rOwdyism of a certain crowd.
The first game was between. the Flu
soos and Asahi Juniors The teams
We're well matched, although the for
mer had the shade in stick work, as
the players are all grown-up men,
while the latter players are the small
est boys in the league. the youngest
being only ten years old.
1t was anybody's game until the end
of the tenth inning and was snappy
and exciting in the extreme.
The game was won by the Asahi
Juniors, who played a steady game
through ten hard innings, by the score
of 10 to 4.

Fusoos-Sueoka, IT,: Shoichi, cf.: Y.

suited in a ~walkaway for the lads.
The score at the end of the first half
was 80 to o in favor of Mitchell.
Belts, the quarterback, was given an
opportunity to make a drop kick
from a GOOD distance from the goal
and he sent the ball over With a
beautiful push of his foot.
The second half was only a rope
tition of the first half although the
Indians took a brace when most of
the first team men We're retired and
the subs put in.
The game ended with the score
50 to 0 in favor of the high school.
Dickson, Vassar, and Storer did
exceedingly we'll in their strong and
aggressive work in carrying the ball.
Belts at quarterback is rapidly inn
proving and before long will be hard
to beat at this position. The line
has taken a decided brace since the
game with the University subs. The
whole team will be in good condi-
ton to meet the Madison High.
which it will do here next Saturday
Sheeks and Nolt were the officials
of the game.

HANDLED EiAnY PEOPLE
Nearly $4,000 People Were Transpor
ted to Chamberlain for the Days
of Registration.
of Registration

Friday night at midnight closed
the registration at Chamberlain for
the Rosebud lands, and the Milwau-
kee company had about as trenu-
Gus two weeks it has enjoyed since
the capital campaign four years ago,
although the company was the gain
er by several thousand dollars this
year. Between $4,000 and $4,000
people were handled by the COM
pany during the two weeks that the
mad rush was on. The biggest days
rush during the two weeks was We'd
nesday OF the first week, when IS
coach loads were put into the Mis-
souri, river town. Being short of pass
enger cars the company borrowed
equipment from half a dozen differ
ent roads which run into Chicago or
trains a day were run out to accom-
modate the numerous people, and the
company was just as accommodating
to get them back home again and
had to run special trains east from
Chamberlain. The company made a
fine record in handling their pass
Iengers and not a person was injured
On any of their trains, 81 watchful
were the conductors and brakemen,
who were specially instructed to keep
a very close watch over them while
getting on and off the cars at crowd
ed points.
Trainmaster Peterson was here
from Mason City during the two
weeks and managed he extra
work, and was exceedingly glad the
company got through so nicely. The
company's officers who We're at
Chamberlain passed through the
city Saturday on their way to
Mason City. They have had three
or four officials al the western point
to look after the big traffic.
1t is estimated that about $4,000
people registered at Chamberlain,
and the closing day there were three
train loads of people sent out for the
last registration.

INDIANS WE'RE EASY
They Never Had a Look in to Defeat
the High School at the Football
Came Soturday
Game Saturday.


When the high school football
team went over to the athletic park
on the south side Saturday to
meet the Chamberlain Indians on
the gridiron they wondered what
show they had for the game, when
the size. of the Indians was taken in
to consideration.
The question was solved in a very
few minutes after the play began, for
it seemed only a question of time
after the pigskin was kicked Off IN
til they could make a touchdown
over the Indians. And what was
supposed to be a very difficult game
from the high school standpoint re-

DEMOCRATS HOLD FORTH

HUlD FUnIn
They Furnished Two Speakers Tues
day Night to ENpound Democra-
tic Doctrine.
The democratic nominees for con
gress, Andrew II. Olson, of Dead
wood, and Robert E. Dowdell, of Ar
tesian, addressed a small crowd of
voters at the city hall Tuesday e
ing. The crowd was largely COM
posed of republicans and comparati-
vely little enthusiasm was manifest
ed.
The meeting was presided over by
John Michels, chairman of the DEM
ocratic county committe. The
speakers of the evening were intro
duced by Mayor A. e. Hitchcock.
The first speaker, Mr.. Olson, launch
ed at once into issues of the national
campaign. He started out with the
evident truth that political cam
paigns should not disturb business
conditions, i. e. they should not be
in such a state as to be disturbed by
a change in the head of the nation.
This was followed by a review of
business conditions in which the
speaker declared that all fortunes
over a million dollars We're acquired
dishonesty. The speaker expressed
views about large fortunes that were
more socialistic than orthodox demo-
cratic.
He then passed into a discussion
of the republican candidate and re-
ferred to him as a man who had al
ways been appointed to one Office
after another. He attempted no cri-
ticism upon the manner in which Mr..
Taft had performed his duties, mere
ly emphasizing the fact that he had
not been elected to the various posi-
tions he has held. During the course
of his speech he referred to Mr.. Taft
as the republican "appointee' of
President Roosevelt and - Wall
street interests. His argument tend
ed to show that Roosevelt was at
tempting to establish some sort of a
dynasty. In contrast he offered Mr.
Bryan as a man of he people, one OF
their own number.
In discussing state affairs he
seemed to realize the fallacy of dis.
cussing state expenditures ten years
ago and now and then mentioned the
rate bill that had been passed by the
democrats and which no republican
governor had ever dared to enforce
The democrats, he asserted, were re
sponsible for the initiative and ref.
erendum bill. With this as a basis
he pleaded for theagenublicans to, for
get party lines and vote for principle
which can only be found with a de
mocratic label. This was, really the
theme of his whole address, that t.
cut loose from the party lines anG
tradition and vote for men rand fo1
principle. which could all be found
however, in one party, the demo
cratic. ~
The other speaker, Mr.. Dowdell
was introduced as the former editor
and legislator of Sanborn county
Mr.. Dowdell spoke Of the early day
in Mitchell and his connection will
them. He declared he had Away,
favored Mitchell and would do 81
more than ever if once elected con
gresham. From the democratic
point of view he discussed the in
come tax, the tariff, and the Nee
land-Aldrich Currency bill. AS s
cure for the evils now affecting tn
country he urged the election o
Bryan and a democratic lower house
His address closed with a glowing
eulogy of Bryan and the confidence
in his erection.

1t will be seen that the acreage devoted
to h growing Of this cereal has steadAy
increased from 100, 1870 acres in 1897 to
$4,000 in 1907, the number of bushels
produced in 1907 being 20. 900 rs
against $4,000; in 1897. The Farm
value of this immense croo1on December
list. 1907, according to the government
crop reporter. was about s12,00O,000..
That South Dakota barley is vary de-
ssirable, carrying considerable fame for
mailing purposes, is shown by. the fact
that approximately 100000 bushels Of
the South Dakota crop was ~pureh.sed
by the Brewing and Mating interests.
Barley is commonly divided into feed
barley and mating barley. Feed bar
ley, as the term implies, is used for feed
purposes and is unfit for mailing. The
fact that the major portion of the 1907
crop was consumed by the brewing and
mailing interests shows the high grade
Of South Dakota barley and the posi-
bilities to which the state may aspire in
the cultivation of this cereal.
In this connection it is we'll to con-
slider two things.
First, the states which produce malt
ing barley are few in number - can be
counted on the fingers of the hand, I'm
fact.
Second. barley is ooe of the most Inn
portant grains in the matter Of diversi-
fed farming. Land exhausted by suc-
cessive years Of wheat raising responds
readily and successfully to the growing
Of barley. Experience has Demonstrated
that on wheat-e Exhausted land, barley Of
a high grade can Be grown for many
years without any appreciable deterior.-
ton of the soil. In addition, il stands
drouth and moisture fully IS we'll n
wheat and has the reputation Of being :
.Fcleanser Of dirty land.
What station South Dakota may there
fore take in the barley world. in view Of
its capacity for increased acreage and
increased yield, should furnish matter
for serious reflection, especially in view
of the growing p%rohibitory agitation.
Not enough heed has been paid As to
what the wipins out Of the breweries
would mean to the farmer, by first
establishing county option and following
it with state and national prohibition.
That there would be = great loss by reason
ola destroyed market, cannot be gainsaid.
A leading buyer of barley said. With
out bre weries, the farmers in the barley
states would lose one of their most
profitable crops. MY statement applies
not only to the present, but to h future
with its increased possibilities"
