date on the independence party tick
ct there would naturally be something
doing, but that isn't all
The republicans, who for many
years have been scarcely able to keep
up the semblance of a party organiza-
ton in the state, think they now see
am opportunity TO firmly establish
themselves in the political arena.
They can hardly be so optimistic as
to suppose they can get a plurality
for their ticket il the state, but they
hope Taft will run at least a close
second to Bryan, and thus lay the
foundation for a strong Republican
party in Georgia
1t is quite certain that Watson and
Graves will engage in a wordy COM
bat in which they will fay each other
numerically and to the profit of the
democrats and republicans Probably
no two men in Georgia are better
equipped with linguistic weapons than
are those two for such a conflict.
At all events, the attention of the
whole country is going TO be directed
toward Georgia in this campaign, as
it has not been before in more than
half century, and it is more than
likely that Mr. Bryan and Mr.. Taft
will both find it expedient to visit the
state before the campaign closes.
Watson has already said that in or
der TO make a state politically great
it must first be made doubtful, and
though it cannot be said that Georgia
has yet become doubtful, the disturb
ance created by Watson and Graves
has already made it conspicuous

An attorney in Key West claims
that the city has no legal jurisdiction
over a dock which extends into the
water. He argues that the jUrisdic-
ton of the city ends at the waters
edge. He was employed to defend
some fishermen who had been arrest
ed for violating a city ordinance, the
arrest having been made on one of
the wharves out over the water, and
the lawyer says his clients when ar
rested were outside the jurisdiction
of the police court.

TOO MUCH FOR "WADDiE
The Last Wrestling Match Won by
Pierce With Ease

The wrestling match between "Wad-
dy" LOveland and Lerlow Pierce at the
opera house Friday evening was won
by Pierce. At the former meeting of
the two men in this city couple of
weeks ago, Pierce was unable to throw
Loveland three times in an hour, ac-
cording to the term of the bout, and
succeeded in getting but one fall and
that after thirty minutes. Friday
night everything appeared to be diff
ferent, and Pierce had no trouble in
getting two falls, the first in twelve
minutes and the second in fifteen.
Loveland was on the defensive all the
time, with the exception of very
few minutes toward the latter part Of
the match. and to the spectators it
looked as though he had little II any
show to get fall on his opponent.

COLLEGE PLAY
"Ingomar" to Be Presented at the
Grand Next Saturday Night

IgOmar, the Barbarian" play of
the most beautiful language, poetry
and dramatic action, will be produced
at the Grand opera house Saturday
evening. February Is, under the aus
pices of the college Christian associa-
tons. The parts of Ingomar and Par
thenia, the hero and heroine, will be
played by Herman Nagel and IFellie
Kendall both of whom have unusual
talent and a considerable degree of ex-
perience, Mr.. Nagel having studied at
Berlin, Germany and Miss Kendall
having delighted Brookings audiences
number of times in as many amat-
uer roles.
The story throughout is beautifully
told and interesting to the last mo-
! ment. The filian piety of the Greek
maiden before the audience in a most
striking manner; even love, the
strongest and most irresistible pas
sion of the human heart, is made to
yield to duty; and when appealed to
by her barbarian lover, whose savage
spirit she has at once tanned and sub.
dued, who in tone of mental agony,
exclaims: ooh, Parthenia, wilt thou
leave me-" Her simple touching an
swer is: "My parents wait their
child" He at once resolved to be her
guide, and when arriving in sight of
Masselia, her home, (from whence she
had strayed to offer herself a sacri-
flee as a ransom for an aged father
in the transport of her JOY, the sudden
thought reoccurs, that, "Hhere we
part"
But not so: he goes with her to the
city, resolves for her sake to become
Greek, abandons even the dress of
his favorite band of allemani, yields
up his sword for the handle of the
plough. and doubly earns his bride.
He spurns Indignantly the offer to be-
tray his countrymen, but makes them
at once the friends and allies of the
Greeks. He redeems his bride from
slavery by the sacrifice of his own
liberty and when finally rewarded by
the gods for his sufferings, he finishes.
"To love owe this bliss
Then they are forever joined.
Two souls with but a single thought,
Two hearts that beat as one
"Ingomar" has been produced with
great success by many of the large
stock companies, and had become a
favorite among the lovers OF modern
drama. Saturday nights production
will be something out Of the ordinary,
and should be greeted by a large

FROM THE klONDlkE

c. H. Wells arrived from Dawson
City, Alaska Saturday night and will
make quite an extern ted visit Win his
son. George Wells. Mr.. NeIs has
been in the Klondike country the past
eleven years, having gone there when
it was settling up, and profited by his
early arrival by securing a number
of valuable claims. Mr.. Wells was
one of the first settlers of Dawson
City, and has seen it grow from
struggling mining town to fine city,
one of the best in the Alaskan coun-
try. He was the founder and first
Master of the Dawson City Masonic
lodge, and shortly before his departure
for this visit the lodge presented him
with Past Masters jewel. which is
the finest we have ever seen. Mr..
Wells is well pleased with that coun-
try and its future prospects, and will
return there after he completes his
visit with his son here.

DEFEAT REDFiElD
State College Basket Ball Team Woo
Much for "Ciover Blossoms"

The college basket ball five defeat
ed Redfield college at the college GYM
nasium Thursday evening. The score
was Al to 81. The visitors were ex
pected to put up a stiff battle, and
the outcome was considered very
doubtful. as several of the regular
men of the Brookings team were laid
up with injuries and it was necessary
to use substitutes. However, the home
team went after the Redfield boys
from the start and the outcome of the
game was never in question. Inside
of two minutes Bookings had made
three baskets from the field and they
steadily increased their lead until the
score at the end of the second half
was "a to 10. Redfield did better
work in the second half. but the lead
that the home team had accumulated
in the early part of the game was
too great to overcome.
The Redfield team arrived on the
mixed train in the evening, which was
late. and this was discouraging and
the crowd was small, the receipts be-
ing the lightest of any game this year,
and the athletic association did not
make enough to pay the visitors ex-
penses. A return game will be played
later at Redfield.

ANNUAL CARNIVAL
State College Students and Friends
Have a Great Time

The annual carnival under the aus.
pices OF the college athletic associa.
ton was given at the college gymna-
SUM Saturday night 1t was a great
success in every way, the crowd en-
joyed themselves thoroughly, while
the association took in over $500. Miss
Ruth Erwin of this city, member of
the Freshman class, was elected car
nival queen after a spirited contest
between the classes, and she opened
the carnival by welcoming her SUBJ
jects and bidding them to spend a
thoroughly enjoyable evening.
The different carnival attractions
were arranged about the floor of the
large gymnasium and all appeared to
have more patronage than they could
take care of, especially the confetti
and refreshment stands. The wild
man was a leading attraction, and di.
vided attention with the three throws
for nickle" stand. A changeable
electric sign called attention to the
electrical show, which no carnival
visitor failed to see. The show was
in charge Of the students of the cleo
trical engineering departments, and
the different attractions were of a
high order of merit.
The mock court furnished a great
deal of amusement as well as a con-
siderable part of the net proceeds of
the evening. This was in charge of
Judge" Matheny. who tempered his
justice with mercy, but let nobody go
scott free. Every offender which in
Guided professors, students and citi-
zens, was given a fine, and carnival
visitors were treated to the sight of
dignified professors buying popcorn
and fudge and distributing it among
the girls, this being a very common
form of punishni ent. AS reward for
the faithful work of the policemen an
occasional culprit was ordered to take
them for trip "down the pike" and
none of the shows were sighted.
At the Japanese booth was to be OBJ
tanned all manner Of noiseproducing
instruments, which added materially
to the revelry of the evening. The
carnival was one of the most enjoy
able events of the college season and
will probably be a feature of each
college year for some time to come

dispatch says:

last, concerning the alleged land
frauds of Governor Coe !. Crawford.
In being able to send out fifty thou

the big senator can get this put.up
corporation game before the people
without its costing him cent.
IF Senator Kittredge was so deeply
interested in land frauds, he with Con.
gresham Mann could have caught
some very high-up public officials in
Wyoming, Colorado, Montana, Oregon
and California who actually stole hun.
| dreds of thousands of acres OF valu.
able timber land, and they would not
have been reformers. but belonged to
the system of which the senator has
some information.
1T is known that even in South Da-
kota, and the Chamberlain land dis
trict thousands of acres were taken
surreptitiously by some very close
friends of Senator Kitrredge and that
the public official who was certain to
catch them, was suddenly suspended
from the service and finally discharg-
ed without ever getting hearing. 1t
is also known in this part of the state
of South Dakota that the public Of
fetal who was removed for doing his
sworn duty in the Chamberlain land
district does give the big senator
from South Dakota credit for taking
a hand in his removal"

MILITIA ACTIVITY
An important Step Taken FaVorins
the State Troops

Captain George D. Guyer, comman-
dant at the college, and Captain Au-
brey Lawrence of the Brookings COM
pany of the state guard, were at Wa
tertown Friday evening to attend a
meeting of the officers of the state
guard. At this meeting plans were
discussed for the annual encampment
in July. and a number OF matters of
interest were talked over.
1t has been about decided TO build
a club house for the use of the guard
at the camp grounds on the shore of
Lake Kampeska. The house will be
open during the summer, and by the
payment of a small fee the members
of the guard may enjoy privileges.
At this meeting it was also decided
to begin the publication of a paper at
Sioux Falls, which will be the official
in the state will receive a copy. This
is something that has been needed for
some time, and it should be a great
factor in the upbuilding and banding
together of the state troops.
The national government, as is well
known, makes an appropriation to help
further the work of the state militia,
and requires that a certain standard
of excellency must be maintained in
each state in order to participate in
this appropriation. During last year
there were only four states to come up
to the requirements of the War De
partment, and South Dakota was one
of the four. 1t is matter Of particu-
lar pride to the guard members to be
"in the. money and they propose to do
even better work the coming year
Captain f. c. Chrisman of the 10Th
U. S. Infantry, has been detailed as
inspecting officer of the state guard
and will be here to inspect the Brook
ings company Monday evening. Febru
