Some things the Commercial
club have accomplished during the
year 1908
Entertained the state Y NJ. C. A.
delegates at MarQuardt hall, and re-
Ceived much praise from the delegates
in attendance.
Succeeded in reversing the order of
the L. p, railroad company that aban-
doned the freight on that road for
three days in the week in twenty-siX
hours after the order had gone into
effect.
They had pressed the freight rate
question with a degree Of success
until asked by the railroad men. with
a petition signed by large number
of the business men, to cease agita-
ton for a few months, until business
picked up on the railroad, so there
would be no danger of lowering wages
for the employees. The case is now
ready to be taken up at any time
which ought to be done in the near
future and pushed to completion.
Secured the Midland chautauqua
that was one of the best attractions
that was ever in the city of Norfolk
and guaranteed to sell 500 tickets at
81 each, and more than made good on
it, selling more than the required mum
Der, at normal expense to the Com
merciaI club.
Took 500 people to Madison on the
Fourth of July, including the Norfolk
band, and established the most friend
ly feeling between Norfolk and Madi.
son, that there has been in many
years.
Took 200 people, and the band to
stanton county fair, at Stanton, and
were heartily received by that town.
Inaugurated and put in operation one
of the best plans and money-saving
schemes by getting the bust
ness men to pledge themselves
not to patronize Improbable
advertising schemes, which has saved
the business men and citizens of Nor
folk many thousands of dollars, to my
own knowledge, during the last year.
herewith give a list of some of the
things that this plan has prevented:
One wireless telegraph scheme,
which would have cost Norfolk citizens
$4,000
One calendar proposition that would
have cost SIS.
One advertising cook book that
would have cost $50.

The Power Of Enthusiasm

Enthusiasm is one magnet Oh
power. You must fire every event
with it, touch thoughts and acts
with it. It will transmute dros'
into gold, drudgery into delight
What matters if the soul which
lives beside you is cold and selfish
Set him a good example! Joy is
sunshine, and he will feel it. Every
irksome task is a chance for power
for the qualities which they bring
out are Gods gifts which fit us to
enjoy better things. Easy things
will come if you have spent your
hearts blood on gaining strength
for the very goal of power is the
ease which comes from strength
We laugh at things and people who
used to COW or annoy US. We dc
gracefully and swiftly the tasks
once so hard. One by one we have
unriveted our chains. We are free

SOUTH DAKOTA NOW SECOND
Only One State in Union Produces
More Mica.

"OIC "IiCds
In pamphlet just published by
the United States geological surve,
Douglas B. Sterrett says of the Soutf
Dakota mica mining industry:
"The mica mines described in this
paper are all located within a radius
of eight miles of Custer, in the south
ern part of the Black Hills. This
area includes the better deposits o
mica so far located, though some de
posits occur twelve to fifteen miles
north of Custer, on the north side o.
Harney Peak.
Previous to 1905 the production o
mica in South Dakota had been smal
for several years, being often ONLY
that obtained from assessment worl
on the claims, but in that year tbs
Westinghouse company took up sew
eral mines and prepared for sys
tematic and extensive work. The
success Of this company has raised
South Dakota to second rank amona
the mica producing states. OF the
1,060,1S2 pounds of sheet and 3,02-
tons of scrap mica, with total value
of s392,l11, produced during 1907 il

Knowles wrote an article about a
young girl at Denver who had lost
her life through an illegal operation.
He accused society for the false sen
timent held toward such unfortu-
was guilty of this girls death.
The court held that the article
glorified wrongdoing and tended to
corrupt young women and men. II
further held that Knowles could net
violate the law even if his purpose
was good. Knowles had contended
that his purpose was good-that OF
correcting q false opinion. The court
said that the common law brought
the case under the federal statute
which forbade the use of any indecent
language in the presence Of women OF
in public.
The court did not hold that any in
decent word had been written, bur
that the tendency Of the article was tc
corrupt Therefore it declared it i
violation of the statute and the mail
ing of it illegal.
Knowles will now have to pay his
fine of $500.
