The United States land and irri-
cation exposition convenes in Chi
cago next Saturday for the first
time in history. and promises to be
the most unique and complete
showing of the successes of irriga-
ton that has ever been shown. The
states of California. Nevada, Ida
no, Arizona. Washington. and in
fact all the arid states west of the
ninety-seventh meridian will be
represented to show that irrigated
lands are preferable to lands
which do not require Irrigation.
The aridity of the land is not CON
sidered a drawback. 1t has been
shown that the densest populated
countries in the world were orig
inally arid or semiarid. An irriga-
zionist of the far west has gone SO
far as to speak of the BLESSINGS of
aridity," and goes on to offer
many interesting facts. He declares
that the bible offers conclusive ev
idence that the garden of Eden was
an irrigated spot, and calls atten-
ton to the passage where it says
that the river went out of Eden to
water the garden. Then he looks
around and sees that every ancient
civilization had its birth in arid or
semiarid regions. A western rail
road not long since issued very
striking map. One part of it shows
the physical features of the prom
ised land of Canaan and the other
shows those of the Salt Lake val
ley of Utah. Salt Lake could be
substituted for the Dead sea, Og-
den for Bethlehem, Salt Lake City
for Jerusalem, Provo City for Ii
berias. and Utah lake for the sea
| of Tiberias, and you would have
Salt Lake valley as the land OF
Canaan. 1t is interesting to note in
this connection that three of the
important religions sprung from
arid regions. Judaism sprang from
the deserts of Sina; Christianity
from the hills of Judea; and Mo

1t is an old and beautiful custom

many years ago to set apart each
year a day of special prayer and
thanksgiving for the many bless

Therefore. |, X. 5. Nessey, Coy

point Thursday, November 25,
1909, as a day of general Thanks
giving, and request that it be
observed as such throughout the
Commonwealth.
The year 1909, for South Dako-
ia. has been a most wonderful
year and as it draws toward the
close it is fitting that the people of
the state should rejoice and be
thankful for the eminence which
our Commonwealth has attained;
for the wonderful development of
our resources, and for the ma
terial prosperity which has come
to us.
Earth has been gracious in Civ
ing from her store, bountiful har-
vests have been reaped, and our
mines have yielded generously.

general awakening to the respon-
sibility of citizenship, to a higher
! standard of public morals, and to a
most wholesome regard for the
dignity of the law.

From leading advocate of
woman's suffrage comes the state
ment that "a woman is absolutely
ineffective as a factor in the work
of the world unless she has a
vote" We must assume then from
this theory that such women as
Francis Willard, Mrs. Ballington
Booth, Helen Gould and Helen
Keller must have exercised a right
to vote. The list of names of the

Colorado, Idaho, Australia and
other places where women actual

hesitate to throw in little sarcasm
for good measure. Some months
ago young lad from eastern

the Fort Pierre liveryman to drive
out to the Buffalo pasture, about
six miles north. He was apprehend-
ed at Hayes, and despite his de-
fense that he had lost his way, he
was taken into custody. At the re-
cent term of court he was acquitted
and sent to his folks. A few days
later Stroup started out for the
Hayes country, and the Fairplay
says his passengers tell that the
