The Great Empire of Stanley

Francis Gueffroy, former editor
of the Western Star at Midland,
who is now on the Pacific coast,
has purchased the Star of j. c..
Russell and will return to Midland
about the first of March to take

ty the garden spot of the world
and is very anxious to got back.
The county officers moved into
their now quarters in the new
court house the last of last week.
Each officer has a large Office room
to himself and it makes it so much
nicer than the old quarters
where they we're all in one room,
that there is no comparison. Stan
ley county can we'll be proud of
her new court house. 1t is the

houses in the state.-Fairplay.

When sounded upon the PROPOSE
tion of increasing the size of home

he does not feel like recommend
ing such a change.
The idea of government owner

American. If the land is too poor
to appeal to the homesteader in

it will all be homesteaded. This

The Burke Meeting

Hon. Chas. H. Burke of Pierre
delivered an address at the opera
house Monday night. The wealth
er was stormy, but, nevertheless,
a good sized audience was in evil
dence, and the closest attention
was given the speakers remarks.
Mr.. Burke defined the terms
stalwart and insurgent as applied
to the two factions of the republi-
can party in this state. He point
ed out the causes that give rise to
the insurgent faction and contribut-
ed to its temporary ascendency in
South Dakota politics. The speak
er also dwelt upon the large prom
ises and the small ful6llment of
the insurgents, and in conclusion
paid his respects to those politi-
clans who so effectually throttled
the primary at Midland a few days
ago.
"Charlie'' Burke has been long
and favorably known in Stanley
county. Eight years of creditable
service in congress has brought
him prestige here, as it has else
where all over the state, and it's
likely that his canvass will gain
considerable strength in this part
of the state.

wore that meek and crest-fallen
air of . man whose sin had found
him out. The old general simply
ate 'em alive! rr
When the committee came to
the consideration of its regular
business, it was pretty evident
that fine surgical hand was at
work. Other hands, legal and
political, and hands of just ordinary
henchmen were mixing in too.
All the insurgent hands in evidence
were calloused and horny from
hanging on to county Office. And
occasionally an unprejudiced OBJ
server might have noticed con-
elusive and grasping movement in
= particularly active hand as if it
we're taking a fresh strangle hold
on some county Office or perhaps
reaching out for q new and jucier
plum. In reality, however, it was.
a hand full of proxies that did the
work.
Enough proxies were produced
and enough vacancies on the COM
mittee filled to give the Fort
Pierre coterie control. A motion
was made to dispense with the
primary for the selection of dele
gates to the state convention, and
it was carried with whoop, in
spite of the objection of stalwart
delegates present from the west
end of the county.
Three Fort Pierre delegates, ell
insurgents, were named by the
chairman as q committee to select
delegates to tho state convention. :.
Nine insurgents were selected, with
= Fort Pierre insurgent as chair
man Of the delegation.
A set Of resolutions was adopted
indorsing the Crawford administra-
ton, or rather the Crawford cam
paign. A motion to adjourn pre-
vailed, and the committee did ad-
journ just as it became apparent
that tho proxies might secure
control and overvote the actual
members present.

County Central Committees Met
at Midland

Both the republican and demo-
cratic county central committees
met in Midland last Thursday for
the purpose of fixing the hour and
place for their respective county
conventions.
In the afternoon before the COM
mittees met, Hon. Chas. H. Burke
of Pierre addressed large audi.
ence in the opera house. This wa
the inning of the stalwart's and
when it was through they laid
down the bat. Many prominent
democrats of the county heard
Mr.. Burke's address, but none OF
the insurgents from down the
river saw fit to grace tho meeting
with their presence.
At night when tho committees
assembled, the Fort Pierre aggre-
cation of Crawfordites certainly
played a scurvy trick on their
stalwart and democratic brethren.
1t was vile and low, to say the
least.
Before the regular work of the
committee was taken up, the in
surgent chairman introduced Prof.
A. H. Wheaton satalite of the
Crawford administration. That
gentleman evidently saw his op-
portunity, for he mercilessly un-
corked all the seven vials of his
eloquent wrath on the defenseless
heads of his stalwart hearers. He
hammered them first on one side
and then on the other until the
poor dilapidated wretches were
fairly driven into the ground.
When the speaker had exhausted
all oral argument and WAS ready
to faint from the heat of his exer-
tions, he dumped wagon load of
campaign literature upon his
audience and stopped the inhuman
slaughter. Wheaton is a great
orator and politician, but take our
word for it, he is cruel man.
Then came General Conklin, an
old war horse of the republican
party, and there was q period Of
democratic suffering. The speak
er ignored the fact that there were
two factions of tho republican
party and devoted his whole atten-
tion to the democrats. And that
party was, fguratively speaking,
handed a bouquet that looked like
a lemon tree.

the vessels were also to replenish their

The striking fact OF the estimate was
that the runs from Hawaii to Auckland
and from King Georges Sound to Ma
Mia were deemed to be beyond the
cruising radius of several OF the bat
tleships at ten knots. From Hawaii to
Auckland is about 1000 knots, and from
King Georges Sound TO Manila about
$500 knots. The ships referred to are
the Virginia. the Rhode Island. the

to only 1926 miles at ten knots speed.

into the hands of George p. Theilen,
scording to well authenticated re-
lort in circulation yesterday. There is
TO be no change at present in the man
tagement of the company's affairs, how
ever.
This company has two thousand acres
of pineapple lands at Wahiawa, thir.
teen hundred acres of which is now in
pines. On the land is an up-to.date
cannery, enlarged this season, and the
future prospects for the company are
good.
For next season it is estimated that
the output of the company from its can
merry will be $4,000 cases of fruit.
The present season is now entering
on about its last week, the management
of the Hawaiian Pineapple Company
making preparations to close down their
big cannery within that time, or at
least to lay off large portion of the
force at work. The past season has
been a good one for the Hawaiian can
merry, the spring estimates having been
overrun in the pack just finishing, while
the prospects for marketing it without
difficulty are excellent.

FORMER HONOLULAN MAY GET
End LEGISLATURE TERM

The Springfield (Mass.) Republican
correspondence from Amherst gives
some space to +. A. Hosmer, formerly
president of Oahu College, and now
member of the Massachusetts legisla-
ture, as follows:
Representative Frank A. Hosmer of
this town is a candidate for reelection
this fall by the Republicans of the
Third Hampshire District, and his name
will be placed before the Republican
caucus in September. 1t is customary
to give the Amherst representatives two
years, and as Mr.. Hosmer has ''made
good the past winter, he will undoubt-
eddy be returned. He has clean rec
ord in opposing extravagant appropria-
tons, notably the bill to increase the
salary of members, which he fought in
all its stages. At the opening of the
last Legislature he was appointed by
Speaker Cole upon the ways and means
committee. This is the hardest-worked
committee in the House, as every bill
involving an appropriation must come
before it. Mr.. Hosmer has been a con
scientious worker, deyoting his full
time to his labors in the committee-room
and also to defending on the floor of
the House the committee IS action on
the bills intrnsted to his care. He has
been mindful of the interests of his
constituents, and assisted in securing
state road allotments for Amherst and
elsewhere in the district. He helped
kill the bill to place milk production
under the board of health, so obnoxious
to the farmers. The matter remains
under the control of the dairy bureau
of the board of agriculture. He as
sisted in securing the present milk
standard of 1915 per cent. solids and
3.95 per cent. butter fat the year round,
the double standard having been high
ly unsatisfactory.
He has secured generous appropria-
tons for the Massachusetts, agricultural
college, to whose interests he has de-
voted much time and thought. He has

Hawaii's rife team at the national
competitive shoot at Camp Perry, Ohio,
won twenty-sixth place out of fifty COM
peting teams, with an aggregate score
of 2T14, as against thirty-fourth place
last year out of totaf of 4S competing
teams, The news of this important re-
suit came by cable yesterday and Gov
ernor Frear Immediately cabled to Ma
jor Riley, N. G. H., at Camp Perry:
Congratulations.
Major Riley also cabled the entire
range scores with the announcement of
the honorable place Hawaii's national
guardsmen had won in the long list of
competitive teams from every part of
the United States. The position which
Hawaii attained in this years shoot
lagreeably surprised the military head
quarters, although there was every hope
for splendid record as the marksmen
had been consistent in their practise
for the past year. That the team was
well selected from the First Regiment,
National Guard of Hawaii, is evidenced
by the results officially announced yes
terday. Major Riley had looked after
the personnel of the team on the local
rifle ranges and was range officer at
Camp Perry.
Major Riley cables that the weather
was rough, but the Hawaiian marksmen
had schooled themselves in all kinds of
weather. Their last few days of prac-
tise on the Fort Shafter range gave
evidence that they could shoot with ex-
cellent results in the windiest kind of
weather, as the wind was stiff and diff.
fcult to gauge.

Aggregate score -. .2714
Last year the aggregate score totaled
1886 points, and this year the points
are increased by 2S.

Hopkins, Chillingworth, Sumner, Lemon,
Ferreira, Barry, Blanchard, Corporals
Stone and Gouveia. The team left Ho-
nolulu on the Alameda, August 5.
The Hawaiian rihemen were pitted
against the best shots in the United
States. Some of the experts in the ma
tional guard teams are men who have
been enlisted for the sole purpose of
practising continually for the entire
years interval in preparation for the
annual competitive shoot. Some nation.
al guard regiments have bid high for
these experts and pay them well, and
give them every possible opportunity
to increase their efficiency on the shoot.
ing ranges. The local marksmen have
opportunity to spend only a limited
time ON the rifle ranges. Many are
in business which compels constant at
tendance upon their duties and some
are employees of the government.
A feature of the score cabled is the
great improvement of the Hawaiian
marksmen on the thousand yard range.
The scores up to that range, as cabled,
are a few points below those made last
year, due doubtless to the rough wealth
er conditions under which the contest
was held, but on the long range the
shooters ran their total away up. This
range score probably put them in their
place ahead of twenty other com
peting teams.
