Lincoln's Birthday Proclamation

State Of South Dakota,
Executive Chambers, Pierre
To the people of South Dakota:
On the 18th day Of February, 1909,
one hundred years ago, was born the
worlds greatest commoner, Abraham
| Lincoln. In state, national and social
history his name and the story of his
great ard simple life is familiar to all
Today there is no parsonage in the
whole of American history more ex-
allied than Lincoln.
l deem it fitting that the citizens
| Of the State of South Dakota should
join In the memorable observance of
the One Hundred Anniversary of the
birth of this great man. The North
and the South, as a unit, honor his
memory and revere the rugged grand
eur of his personality. All forget the
bitterness and hate engendered dur
ing the stirring days Of the early Cos,
in the admiration of Mr.. Lincoln.
His name and the great work which
he accomplished for the nation and
the cause of liberty for the people,
are familiar to the world. 1t is a
great privilege to offer tribute to his
memory. The world esteem it a mea-
sure of devotion to his principles.
I trust that the citizens Of South
Dakota will join in making this oc-
casion an incentive to patriotism in
our schools and all public and social
gatherings; thus evincing the admira-
ton which a free and !iberty-loving
people feel for his great benefactor,
who used the power entrusted to him
for the benefit Of those whose condi-
tion appealed to his Of justice.
To him we are indebted for our ma
tional freedom and a united nation.
Therefore, I urge the schools of the
state and all municipal, civic, social
and religious organizations to observe
the day with appropriate exercises.
Given under my hand and the great
seal Of State, at Pierre, this 22nd day
of January, A. d. nineteen hundred
and nine.

Death OF Col. Dudley.

The sudden death OF Commandant
Dudley of the Soldiers Home came as
sad surprise to his friends on this side
Of the state. Our acquaintance with
Col. Dudley was limited but from re-
ports from the Home he seemed to
have met every requirement of a
good commandment. His successor
should be a man who has the welfare
and comfort of the men in the home
at heart, as we'll a. a thorough know
ledge Of human nature for nowhere is
this SO necessary as in regulating and
managing a camp of old veterans.

Light Plant Stack Down.

During the storm last week the tall
smoke stack of the electric light plant
was blown down and the top smashed.
The accident happened last Friday
morning when the bowling gale was
sweeping over the city and for the
first time in years the city was with
out lights. There was a rush for
lamps and candles and everybody pre-
pared for the worst. Few realized
what it meant to go back to lamps
and candles until they began the
quest for lighting material.
The city had the appearance of an
old time village shrouded in gloom
and people in stores and hotels were
carrying around tallow dips and all
kinds of lamps. Saturday afternoon
word "a sen I'VE the city that the
smoke stack was up and lights would
be furnished as usual. Down at the
depot the wires we're broken and that
big long building looked as dark as a
country school house. Fred Oliver,
manager of the depot restaurant was
feeding his night guests by lamp light
and doing mighty we'll all things con-
sidered, but the best light obtainable
only added to the Pickering gloom.
At the Hotel Rudolph candles and
lamps were everywhere and yet the
light gave no cheer.
We can all o better appreciate
what it near to have a good electric
light system, and there are none bet
ter than Canton enjoys. Encourage
the men who are doing all they can
to give us good light and don't for a
minute think they are getting rich.

The Recent storm.

On Thursday afternoon of last week
while the LEADERS big press was
igrinding out the regular edition at
the rate Of 1900 an hour, the gentle,
misty rain suddenly became white
and an old fashioned snow storm was
doing business under a rapidly in
~creasing gale which at times reached
60 miles an hour. The big NOW flakes
came thick and fast and as darkness
approached the storm increased and
by midnight was a roaring gale.
The rain had reduced the streets
and roads to mud and with the soft
snow everything was a bed of slush.
Then it turned colder and the mud
and slush froze hard and the wind
howled along in hooking glee unable
to raise what had fallen.
1t was a terrible night but the
storm began early enough to warn all
to shelter and no loss Of life Is report
ed in this section.
The damage In Canton was not ser
ious, the worst being the partial de-
struction of the smoke stack at the
electric light plant which occurred
after the midnight hour. o. II. Ly-
harger had a big plate glass broken in
the old store, Tom Sexe had a win.
dow smashed and a window In tn e
Hotel Rudolph suffered a like fate,
but as usual Canton escaped the fury
of the storm as compared with other
places.
The railroads suffered the most, not
in actual loss but in handling trains.
All time tables were rubbed out and
go as you can was the rule. Even as
late as Sunday the trains were out Of
time, and the passenger due here at
1890 didn't show up until $50. Fri
days Minneapolis papers got here
Sunday, two days late.
Canton got the rough edge Of the
storm which was very much more
ver northeast, and even in Mis-
souri, and Kansas it assumed cyclonic
conditions. The central and eastern
states caught the storm last Satur-
day and.it bowed itself out owe the
South Atlantic ocean Sunday.
The storm was very sever in the
southern states and a man was frozen
to death in a snow drift at Council
Bluffs.
The first train to reach Canton last
Friday was the passenger due here
at 9:15 from Mitchell. 1t came in as
q double header, but there was no
snow at Mitchell and none west of
Turner county.
We don't know where this last
borean-aeolus was born but it was not
in the Dakotas, hence our eastern
friends will have no chance to regis
ter a kick at the land OF sunshine.
The old time billiards. that we re-
member so we'll weree entirely different
and far more severe than any in a
quarter Of q century. A blizzard in
the 7Os kept up its terrible work for
three days and nights and during
that time 1t was necessary for man
and beast to be under shelter if they
escaped with life. The storm of last
week was q very distant relative Of
the old fashioned kind that came
down from Alaska over a thousand
miles Of treeleSS prairie.

CASH FOR THE FIREMEN.
Public Spirited Citizens Make
Handsome Donation to
Canton Firemen.

The Canton Firemen are among the
most efficient in the state and as a
department it ranks among the very
best. 1t is composed of earnest, brave
and competent young men who never
finch at any danger and evade nc
risk to subdue the ''enemy." During
the "irebug conspiracy" the Canton
firemen saved much valuable proper
ty and saved the town from distruc-
ton at least once during the carnival
Of crime. They eve counted cost
or expense to themselves during those
fierce battles with the big fires that
called for every element Of courage
and ingenuity in subduing The roar
ing flames. Nearly every fire cost
each Of the boys a suit of clothing be-
sides foot wear, yet they never grum-
bled. They only did their plain duty
as volunteer fremen and were proud
of their successful work. Victory to
them was worth more than gold, but
in the face of this unselish interest
the people admired and appreciated.
We don't know who circulated the
subscription list, we v saw it, but
it shows splendid appreciation and
honorable recognition for patriotic
work.

subscribers tells the story:
