Petition Is Invalid.

Judge Whiting of the state circuit
court of the Ninth circuit has rem
dered a decision of importance as
bearing upon the property qualifica'
lions of those who sign petitions re-
auired by law asking that the queS
ton Of issuing licenses for saloons
be submitted to the voters OF a town.
The case just decided came from
Erwin. Kingsbury county. The town
clerk of Erwin had refused to submit
the question of license to the voters
of that place, Notwithstanding that a
petition had been filed with him, he
basing his action on the ground that
the signature to the petition were not
all those of qualified voters and free
holders, as, specified by law. The par
ties interested in having the license
question submitted to the voters then
made application to Judge Whiting
for a writ of mandamus compelling
the town clerk to submit the question.
After having had the matter under
advisement, Judge Whiting now rem
dered a decision in favor of the de-
PENDANT town clerk, holding in sub
stance that the petition was invalid
because of lack of qualification on the
part of some of the signers.

. GUARD FAvoRs FORT RILEY.
Militia Given Opportunity to Attend
Two National Encampments.

Militia Given opportunity 10 NtteHo
Two National Encampments.
A letter has been received by Dow
Aldrich of Sioux Falls, major of the
South Dakota national guard, from c.
H. Englesby, adjutant general of the
guard. containing the information that
the South Dakota national guard will
his year be given the choice of at
tending two national encamp-uents of
state militia and troops of the regular
army. The state encampment will be
held in July on the permanent grounds
of the guard at WATERFOWL.
Several companies of the state
guard went to Fort Riley last year and
made one of the best records of the
encampment and are enthusiastic over
the idea of attending this years ma
tional encampment. The national en-
campments which the South Dakota
guard has the option Of attending this
summer are those at Fort Russell,
Wyo., in August, and at Fort Riley.
Kan, in September.
Owing to the fact that they are IA
miliar with Fort Riley because Of the
previous visit and the further fact
that the encampment will not be held
there until September, 1t is probable
the South Dakota national guardsmen
will decide in favor Of attending the
Fort Riley e%ncampment again this

was excited over the fact that burg

get into the home of some neighbors.
Rose came directly into our rooms

You can have your choice, II you're
a Sioux Indian and can induce your
father and mother, brother and sis
tiers, to take the same name your
fancy happens to alight on.
Just where the human race devel-
oped its system of names has long
been an interesting inquiry. Certain
1t is that the Sioux Indians are to get
the first scientific scheme of national
nomenclature. They are to be named
officially by the government.
DR.. Charles A. Eastman, ~full-blooded
Sioux Indian, author, clergyman,
scholar and philanthropist, resident
of Amherst, Mass, and husband of a
beautiful young American woman, is
In charge of the business OF selecting
the M He has been at work
about two years on his task, and has
completed a tentative scheme of
names, exclusive of two bands of the
Sioux, those at the Lower Brule
| agency and those at the Poplar reser.
| walton. These he expects to visit the
coming summer and try and get them
into the scheme.
DR.. Eastman's trouble is easily ex.
planned. Suppose there are three
brothers in a family. One is named
| Wild Horse, another Painted Stick
and the third Fiery Cloud. Wild
Horse went to Carlisle and learned
| Latin, and he wants the family name,
in the new scheme of things, to be
| Equus. Tut the brother, Painted
| Stick, refuses to see 1t. He wants the
family named to be called Jones.
Brother Fiery Cloud sticks out for
the name Of John Nimbus. They
must all be induced to agree on one
| name.
When they have agreed, their pa.
rents must accept their agreement.
But they are old fashioned, and want
to retain the family name of Horse
John Horse, Jim Horse and Tom
Horse. There's no use remaining them
all unless the new name plan is going
to be an indication of relationship.
The sisters, cousins and aunts must
be satisfied as well, and the collateral
branches requires attention. It's the
most fearful mix-up ever imagined.
Patience and perseverance have en-
abled DR.. Eastman to get well along
with his list. He has argued the In
dams out of many of their fantastic
ideas, and expects to complete his
work. There are a good many thou,
sands of the Sioux, and it is believed
that moderniZation or names will be
a long step toward making plain aver
age American citizens of them. If il
proves that this is correct, the same
scheme of arbitrary remaining of
whole tribes is likely to be extended
to all the Indians.
