By an easy lead, D. L. Simpson heads
the list of contestants, with Edgar
Hempel in second place. The latter
made a phenomenal advance since the
last published report, and bids fair to
be one of the keenest contenders for
first place before the contest ends.

The Rt. Rev William A. Quayle, bishop
OF the Methodist Episcopal church. de-
livered the second and last of his series

Friday night. His subject was Jean

Jean Vatican was a hero and a man
of the people, said the speaker, God

distinctions In the men OF whom he
makes heroes"
The great heroes of classic literature
were Achilles, Eneas and Ulysses, but
fell short OF being q real man because
he pouted when he did not get his way,
Eneas was always crying. II Is all right
Tor women to cry, because they love to
and know how. but when man cries he
looks as If he had hay fever. Ulysses
was magnificent, winsome and worthy.
but he had no heart. He stayed away
from his wife for twenty years and was
not lonesome.
Jean Vatican, the authentic hero OF
the world never pouted and was all
heart He has more friends among the
reading public than any character In
fiction, and the keynote of his lovable
nature is his unsellshness.

Six thousand votes separate the
leader from the candidate with the
lowest number of votes in district Z.
Wyoming, mp to this time, has been
very weak, but Miss Josephine Foster
is coming UP rapidly. and Miss Eva
Rogers is a new candidate in this di-
vision. Only four contestants are in
this district, and there are five prizes
to award. One or two new yearly
subscriptions would insure any man or
woman alive enough to realize the op"
portunity for fine prize.

Fail Not to Register.

1t is the duty of each and every quail
ified voter to 60 to the polls and cast
his ballot for the candidates and meas
ures that he honestly believes will be
for the best interest of the state and
country.
To stay at home is to shirk sacred
duty and is failure to keep the obliga-
tions of citizenship that ought to be dear
to every loyal American.
In order to vote on November 8, those
who have not registered their names,
must do so on next Tuesday, November
l. Failure to attend to this matter will
result in self-disfranchisement, for the
laws and regulations must be adhered
to.
Let those therefore who have not reg
istered 60 to the registration places next
Tuesday and see that their names are on
the lists.

Better Education for South Dakota's Boys
and Girls.


There is no one thing in which the
citizens of South Dakota should be more
interested than in the education of its
youth. All the affairs of our common
wealth few years hence will be manag-
ed by our boys and girls who are in the
public schools today. They must have
every advantage.
Here is an opportunity for school
board members to aid in the education
al interests of their own communities.
Send one or two members as delegates
to the Huron convention, November lst,
End and Srd to meet with the Associated
School Boards Section of the State Teach
ers' Association. At this meeting, school
board officers from all over the State
discuss new plans, exchange ideas to
the best way to spend school funds for
the greatest returns and many other
things which promote the cause of Edu-
cation.
Too much stress cannot be placed up
on the importance of this meeting. To
send school officers to this meeting is a
wise expenditure of the peoples money
and it is hoped that the Huron meeting
will be the best attended of any of its
kind ever held in the State.
Don't neglect the best interests of the
boys and girls!

CONDITION OF COUNTY ROADS.

In town of this size it should be the
aim of the business men to secure all
the trade possible from surrounding ter
ritory, then hold that trade; but they
cannot do so unless the roads leading
into Custer are kept in good condition
for travel. A farmer would rather drive
two or three miles further over good
roads to a neighboring town, than to
pull his team one.half mile over a rough
rocky hill, to reach his nearest trading
point.
Tuesday in conversation with c. E.
Adams, who has ranch on Spring creek
northwest of Custer, the CHRONICLE
learned that there are two hills on the
road he traverses that is almost impass-
able on account of the large boulders
one has to jolt over. One of the hills
is near the Forest Station the other near
the Pennington county line. While Mr..
Adams lives in Pennington county, yet
he and his neighbors purchase large
share of their supplies in'Custer.
For that reason We call the attention
of the supervisor in that road district to
these facts, in hopes that he may be able
to put the road in good condition before
severe winter weather sets in.
If there are no county funds available
for this purpose, our merchants should
see to it that all roads leading to the
county-seat are kept in good condition
for traffic-if they wish to retain the
trade that is justly due them from the
ranchers and miners living at distance.
Custer should be the principal mart for
a large area of territory, especially from
the west and northwest. If the roads
leading to our bailiwick are not kept in
good condition for travel, these ranchers
and miners will 60 to the more progress
i've towns for their provender-where
public spirited citizens keep the roads
in good shape, in order to hold the pat.
ronage of those living at distance.
