4 Special City election

A movement is on foot 10 do away
with the old city charter and reorganiZe
under the state law. At an adjourned
meeting of the city council Tuesday
night a petition containing sixty five
signatures was presented, praying for a
special election TO vote on the matter.
Mayor Coverdalc has issued a proclama-
ton, calling special election for that
purpose a week from Tuesday, March
16.
Reorganization has often been dis
cussed, but the fear that the limits of
the school district would be narrowed
down to those Of the city under new
charter, has always been considered as a
most serious objection. That objection
has now been entirely remedied. A
special law designed to fit this case was
passed Fed. 20 and is now in force. The
law in substance provides that cities now
organized under special charter may re-
organize under the state law without in
any way disturbing the boundaries OF
the organization Of any existing school
district.
If reorganization carries week from
Tuesday, the city election will not be
held on the first Monday in April as
formerly but on the third Tuesday, as
provided by the state law. This move
ment should receive the hearty endorse
ment Of every citizen and bring out a
large and favorable vote. ELK Point is
almost the last city in the state to cling
to an antiquated special charter that
was formulated even before the grass
hoppers scourged the country. Vote
"Yes" ON this proposition and then we
can form a new charter suited to the
needs and possibilities of modern, up
to-date, South Dakota city.

Prot. N. E. Hanson, who has just re-
turned from his fourth expedition to
Siberia in search OF improved seeds
suitable for the northwestern states,
delivered an interesting lecture on his
trip In the house CHAMBER Sunday
afternoon. Prot. Hanson believes that
he has In his Siberian alfalfa the key
to the solution to the farming prob
lem west OF the Missouri river. As
yet the seed is all in the hands of va
rious experiment stations, but as soon
as the irst 500 bushels is reached the
hardest part of the task will be over.
The difficulty Of gathering the seed
lies In the fact that the Siberian alfal-
ia grows In q wild state and must be
pick ed by hand. Until sufficient is
produced to supply the stations OF the
west private parties cannot be furnish
ed with seed. He has also discovered
q new clover adapted to the drier sec-7
ti0ns OF the west.
