CITY OF THE INSANE
Happy and Henored Guests" Of the
Inhabitants of Gheel.

Inhabitants of Gheel.
One Of the most remarkable places
in Europe, of which no tourist on pleas
ure bent ever takes notice, says a writ
er In a Berlin paper, is the city Of the
Insane" by which name Gheel, near
Antwerp, has been known for genera
lions. About 1900 men and women
afflicted with insanity in all its forms
live there and have a happy being as
the quests" of the inhabitants, who
know by experience how to treat the
unfortunate ones In the streets, In
the places of amusement, the cafes
and workshops these patients may be
found, and nowhere is there the re-
hottest suggestion of restraint appar-
ent. The board ranges from 24O to
2,400 marks q year, and, no matter
how small the amount may be, the pa
tient Is always the favored member
Of the family. he has the first right

receives the most attention, and this
he learns to appreciate and to endeav-
or to maintain by living down his
Illness. Even the children know how
to treat the demented people. The
dangerous mes are sent to another
settlement and to institutions. 1t is
wonderful how ~,considerate, careful
and kind the simple people are toward
their charges, and a peep into the COM

could not appreciate the good which is
being done in this "City Of the In

THE LINCOLN CENTENARY

The state Of Illinois is making ar
rangements for the fitting celebration
of the Tooth anniversary Of the birth
Of her greatest citizen, Abraham Lin
coin. 1t is fitting and just that Hi
nois should honor her illustrious son.
But Lincoln did not belong to Illi-
nois alone. He belonged to the ma
ton. He belonged in wider sense
to the whole world. Aud Iowa has a
strong claim, an abiding interest in
him. She repeatedly welcomed him
as a guest, and when he called upon
the loyal sons of the north to rally to
the defense Of the union, she sent
him 1000 Of her boys, and she sent
them gladly, willingly, and she would
have sent more if there had been
many left who were able to heararms.
She hung on his words; she studied
his message as no presidential mes
sages have been read and studied
since; she gloried in his victories,
and mourned with him in the hours
when the future seemed dark indeed;
and she has honored his memory and
sought to carry on the work and to
perpetnate the ideas and the princip-
les to which he was devoted.
The whole state should observe the
day. And especially in the schools
ought the 18th of February to be
given up 10 a patriotic program,
which should be coupled with or
should end with half holiday, For
the young folks value the lessons
taught them at the school, and they
value no less the holiday which tenn
porarily releases from those lessons.
And if some OF the youthhaye naught
else to help them remember and to
revere the greatest of our presidents,
it will be because they We're granted
half holiday on his account III his

TWO MORE JUDGES
Two Additional Judges Required on
The Supreme Bench.

Early in the session of the legis-
lature bill will be introduced in the
house with prospect for adoption,
providing for an increase in the mem-
bership of the supreme court from
three to five. Inasmuch as news
papers of all shades of political be-
lief have approved the proposed in
crease in the court, it is considered
certain that some bill to this effect
and making the required new district
ing of the state, will be approved.
In the bill already prepared the fol-
lowing division of the state is made:
First District-The counties of
Butte, Harding, Meade, Lawrence,
Pennington, Custer, Fall River, Per
llins, Washington and Shannon.
Second District -Minnehaha, Moo
dy, Lake, McCook, Miner, Hanson,
Sanborn, Dawson, Aurora, .Jerauld,
Brule. Buffalo and Lyman.
Third District Brookings, Deuel.,
Hamlin, Klngsbury, Clark, Beadle,
Sphinx, Hand, Hyde, Hughes, Sully,
Stanley and Armstrong.
Fourth District Grant, Codington,
Roberts, Day, Marshall, Brown, Nc
Pherson, Edmunds, Faulk, Potter,
Walworth, Campbell, Boreman, Dew
ey and Schnasse.
Fifth District Union, Lincoln,
Clay, Turner, Yankton, Hutchinson,
Bon Homme, Douglas, Charles Mix,
Gregory, Tripp, Meyer, Lugeenbeel,
and Washabaugh.
1t will be noticed this division
/ makes a district of the territory lying
west OF the county division line that
runs north and south through the en-
tire state, Just west of Lyman and
Stanley counties. The remainder of
the state is divided into four districts,
running east and west, paralleling
each other and practically equal in
territory. 1t is argued in support of
this division that it will tend to re-
move the Missouri river as dividing
line in state politics. The three pres
ent members of the supreme court,
by this division, would remain in
their own districts, Corson in the
first, Haney in Che second and Whit
ing in the third. If adopted, the plan
would require selection Of new
judge from the extreme southern end
of the state and one from the north
ern. 1t is proposed to allow the
governor to appoint until the next
general election, 1910, from which
time the terms Of the new members
would begin, to prevent the election
of an entire court at one term.

TO MUCH BOMBARDlNG.

Half Of the people who are ccm-
planning that the legislature enacts
too many laws and creates too many
burdens Of expense for the taxpayers
to foot, are III some organized force
asking that other measures and other
burdens of expense be put on the peo-
pie.
The legislature is bombarded from
every quarter. There are tke associa-
tions of doctors, teachers, lawyers
and laborers; the associations Of
county supervisors, auditors and SO on
through the official list. Then there
are the organized corporation inter
ests of railroads, telegraphs, distil-
lery, brewery, on>down to the rural
telephone all demanding no abrldge-
ment OF their rights as seen throug b
| their corporation eyes, All of these
are on the side Of self interest with
some good to the public in some in
stance,
| But the bombardment does not end
| There is always and must be the or
ganized forces looking to the moral
uplift of the people. This coming
! winter these advocates viii appear in
| the form Of the State marshal clubs
the Anti-Saloon league and other or
CARNATIONS,
| The elegislatorthus bombarded needs
not the cursings of the people SC
much as he needs their sympathy. He
must do his duty as he sees it in the
light of right and broad citizenship.

Governor and Mrs. Vessey headed
the reception line at the auditorium,

of the kind in the history of the state.
All the state officers, most of them
accompanied by their wives, were in
the receiving party.
The spacious room had been decor

were booths, where lunch and waters
were served The arrangement, ser
vice and the supply was all that could
be desired.
For an hour Governor Vessey and
wife, the new officials, together with
judges of the supreme court, eXchang
ed greetings and congratulations with
the throng of people that passed.
Shortly after II O'Clock the grand
march was started, headed by Mayor
Wadleigh and wife, and from that
minute until the hour hand was we'll

possible, the dancing and music, and
good cheer; all of which will live long
