to secure allotments in Trip instead
of in Meyer county. 1t is thought
that should any of them do so their
applications for change from Meyer
to Trip county, if filed at the last
moment, will be rejected by the au-
thorities Of the Indian bureau at
Washington, compelling them to take
allotments in the county where they
originally intended to locate their
lands.

dams necessarily is slow and tedious,
as the Indians cannot be made to
understand the necessity for prompt
ness on their part an will consume
all the time possible in making their
selections of land and in finally ex-
pressing themselves as being salts

When the surplus lands in Trip
county are finally opened to settle
mcnt it is generally expected that
one Of the greatest land rushes in
the history of the northwest will take
place. In anticipation of this the
towns bordering the immense tract
which will be opened already are
making preparations for caring for
he great swarm of eager landseek-
RS who will pour into the region.

Alfalfa Palace is Planned.

While corn is king alfalfa is
undoubtedly queen in the western
states and to his queen, King Corn
is to build palace in Omaha which
will be one of the special features
of the National Corn Exposition to
be held there December 9 to 10.
The Alfalfa Palace is being
planned by the directors of the corn
show because of the increasing in
terest in the crop and its growing
importance as a food for cattle. The
palace Is to be built of bales OF al
falfa and lined with exhibits of al
falfa and other grasses. Valuable
premiums are. to be offered for the
best types of the alfalfa plant. and
many growers will secure hay press
es and modern machines for baling
the alfalfa.
Much attention is to be given al
Italia at the national corn exposition
as 1t is now recognized that 1t is
a necessary food for stock. The best
authorities have demonstrated that
cattle cannot use to advantage all
the carbohydrates and oil In corn
without protein ration. 1t is a
waste to feed straight corn to stock
in preparing them for market and
the: big packing houses are now pay-
ing better prices for the stock fat
ylened on mixture of corn and al
falfa. -
Then the mixture is cheaper. Few
feeders are still of the opinion that
they can afford to- feed corn worth
60 to 65 cents per bushel. to cattle
for which they receive from, $3.50 to
$500 at the outside. For this rea-
ion those. interested in agriculture
are to secure exhibits and give dem
onstrations of interest to every grow
er or feeder of alfalfa, when the bic
palace is opened at Omaha in De-
cember.

had been decided to grant the hon
or to Bonhomme county, For many
years there has been a great dea of
discussion regarding the first school
house in Dakota, and for quarter
of century or more the claim of
Vermillion and Clay county was UNI
disputed. When Doane Robinson
was appointed state historian he
gave his attention to settling the dis
pute, and finally awarded the first
school house to Bonhomme county.
But while admitting that Bonhom-
me county had the first school house,
the members Of the old log school
house association still hold to the
claim that the first building erected
in Dakota territory for school pur-
poses only was the little old log
school house at the foot of Ravine
hill, in Vermillion. There is some
consolation In having the matter de-
cided in this way.

SUPREME COURT DECISION.
In One of the Old Ooad-Crouch Line
Mtigations.

ASS-SOA->s
A telegram was received yester-
day from the clerk of the supreme
court at Pierre, stating that the APP
peal taken by William T. Coad and
Joseph H. Mnhlke from the decision
Of the circuit court of Pennington
county to the supreme court in the
case OF c. D. Crouch and others YER
sus the Dakota, Wyoming and Mis-
souri, River Railway Company and
others, had been dismissed for want
of jurisdiction.
1t will be recalled by readers of
..e Journal that in this case all the
property of the D. w. & M. R. r.
Co., was sold at sheriff's sale to G.
D. Crouch and others, September 80.
1908. pursuant to a judgment en-
tered by Judge MCGEE quieting ii
tie in Mr.. Crouch to all the property
and franchises formerly belonging to
the. D. w. & M. R. R. Co.; that the
| Judgment was afterwards affirmed
by the supreme court, and appeals
attempted to be taken to the United
States supreme court were dismissed
for want Of jurisdiction. In Febru-
airy, 1907. after the record came
back from Washington to the cir
cult court Of Pennington county, Mr..
Coad made another motion to set
aside the sheriff's sale, and which
was overruled by Judge MCGEE, al
It was from this decision that the
appeal mentioned was taken, and
which has been finally dismissed as
above stated.
Charles w. Brown and Channcey
l.. Wood represented the successful
respondents on this appeal, and
Boyd & Soule we're attorneys for
Coad and Muhlke. The grounds up
on which the appeal was dismissed
were that necessary parties were
omitted from the appeal, and all the
questions involved in the litigation
! had already been fully settled and
determined by the decision of the
supreme court upon the first appeal.

where the Poor House Is vacant

In the hme of long ago every
child learned of the poor house al
most as soon as they learned of the
School house. Such condition
followed in every old settled coun-
try. Every county "back east" has
its poor house and its sad inmates.
South Dakota is most wonderful
exception to this rule. 1t is true
some counties have poor houses, but
these were generally started by the
new settlers who in some instances
supposed the starting forth of county
organization necessarily meant these
old time perquisites to civil govern
ment. But there are few of them,
and fewer yet used for keeping the
poor. Plenty of young men and wo-
men have grown to manhood and
womanhood in South Dakota, and
to them children have been born, and
yet none of them ever beheld a poor
house. 1t is not because the people
of South Dakota are not charitable,
because they are, 1t is because the
existence of incapable poor is or has
been almost wholly unknown. No
doubt the next generation will find
more of these places of keeping the
poor, but SO far the population have
all prospered. While some have not
a happy condition for our state. t
is bright record of which all can
feel proud. 1t is only to be hoped
that this condition win continue at
mining where other peoples money
escaped the pangs of hunger and
least for another quarter of a CEN
fury as it has for the twenty-five
past. 1t is safe to say that no other
state in the union has SO few poor
houses according to the population
as has South Dakota. $50 far, our
record reads goo instead of poor,
and the prospect for the future bids
fair to read cbetter.-State Review.

H. Scriyen. special agent in charge
OF the work of allotting lands to
Sioux Indians in Gregory, Trip and
Meyer counties, while in Siou4 Falls
on business before the United States
court gave some interesting infor-
nation in connection with the pro-
gress being made In the work of al
loting lands to Indians in Tripp
county.
L. The surplus lands OF the Rosebud
Indian reservation in Trip county
have been coded to the United States
and will be opened for settlement as
soon as the work of alloting In
dams in that county is completed.
Thousands OF persons Throughout!
ldhe northwest are. keenly interested
in the progress being made in this
work. as they intend securing home
cteads in the tract Of 100000 or
100000 acres which is to be opened.
Special agent Scriven states that If
nothing unforeseen arises himself and
the men working under his direc-
ton will have completed the work
of allotment In Trip county and he
will have filed his schedule with the
authorities at Washington by Sep
TENDER Is next. Therefore if moth
ing else interferes the surplus lands
will be ready to be opened to set
Element by proclamation of President
Roosevelt.
The excessive rainfall this spring
has greatly interfered with the al
lOtment work and for days at time
1T was absolutely impossible for the
alloting crews to make their way
about the country. Some weeks ago
agent Scriven was authorized to put
on an additional crew in order to
push the work of allotment, but ow-
ing to the excessive rainfall he has
not yet been able to put the addi-
tional crew at work. However he
expects to have the additional crew
in the field early in the coming week
J Alloting Agent Scriven is well
: aware OF the impatience OF the thou
sands Of intending homesteaders t
have the work completed so the

fort to push the work to completion
