can member besides Mr.. Madison present
when the meeting was called to order
The democratic members in attendance
were Senators Purcell of North Dakota,
and Fletcher of Florida, and Representa-
tives James of Kentucky and Graham of
Illinois.

the democratic members affixed their sig
natures TO their findings. which condemn
the actions of Mr. Balinger as a public
officer. and vindicate Clifford Pinchot, the
former head of the forestry division.
Mr.. Madison brought to the commit

Of the positive declarations OF Messrs.
DENLY and others that they would not
attend, his mission seemed futile. The
action was considered mere formality.

Mr.. Mccall remained in his room.

present. and Senator Nelson gave 1t as
his opinion that the secretary of the

no power to arrest the absentees and en-
force their attendance. Later Senator
Sutherland and Representatives DENLY
and Mccall were found in the latter's
room by the secretary.
The secretary told them that the five
members had requested that the ahsen-

stated that no attention would De paid 10

threat to enforce attendance.
i The secretary's report was followed by
further instructions to again request that

the United States. 1t has been generally
understood that either Mr.. Bowers or
Gov. Hughes of New York would be ap-
pointed Chief Justice of that exalted
body, with the chances slightly favorinS
Mr.. Bowers.
Mr.. Taft made no secret of his In
tention to appoint Mr.. Bowers to the
Supreme bench at the first favorable op-
portunity, which would have been this
fall In conversation with friends. the
President has said some things that indi-
Gated his intention OF making the solici-

The President often said that he regard
ed his solicitor general as one OF the
ablest lawyers In this country.
Mr.. Bowers won national attention last
March, when alone he defended the con-
stitutionality OF the corporation tax pro-
visions of the Payne -Aldrich tariff law
before the Supreme Court. Arrayed
against him was a corps of the leading
lawyers of the country.

THE STATE FAIR
The Huron Fair This Year Promises
Some Fine Attractions

Huron-The last county to make ap-
plication for exhibit space is Charles
Mix, which county promises to send
one of the finest exhibits of agricult-
ure and other products that has ever
been seen in the state. Sinai township
B~rookings county has also made appli-
cation for space. These exhibits to-
other with those for which entry has
already been made, takes all the space
set apart in the Agricultural build
ing for such exhibits. Those In
charge of amusements have arranged
for entertainments each evening on
the Fair grounds during Fair week.
These include concerts by some Of the
best musical organizations in the coun-
try. Lombardo's Band and Grand
Opera company will give entertain
ments each evening in the immense
stock pavilion, which is being spe-
cially prepared for it. In the open
air. will also be given all sorts OF
entertainments for the crowds present.
These night entertainments are a new
departure. A larg force OF carpenters
and other workmen are busy at the
Fair grounds putting everything IN
readiness for the coming exhibit. A
new dining hall is nearly completed,
which with the one used last season
will accommodate 5000 people daily.
Correspondence between Secretary
McIlvaine and the United States navy
department at Washington, in which
request was made for an exhibit at the
state fair to be held Sept. II to 16, OF
a model of the battleship South Da-
kota, has brought a reply from the
department, to the effect that such a
model could not be exhibited for the
reason that the department were not
in possession of one. Secretary Nc
Ilvaine has, however been notified that
Lieut.. Com. of the United States Navy
l. C. Wettengel, with a number OF
naval attaches will be sent to the
state fair in charge Of a model of the
battleship Oregon, which will be eX-
hibited and explained every day dur
ing the fair. The navy department
expresses a willingness to aid In dis
tributing knowledge concerning the
construction and care of batt,eships
which will doubtless be an interest
ing subject for all fair visitors.

Scenic Beauties of the Hills

Deadwood-There is a scheme now
on foot to advertise the scenic beau
ties of the Black Hills next year moro
extensively than has ever been done
before. The plan was proposed by w.
S. Elder of this city, an attorney and
active member of the DeadwCOd Busl-
ness club. 1t includes the Organi7a-
ton of regular daily and weekly trips
from this point by stage and auto to
all the points of interest around the
Hills, such as the Bad Lands east OF
Rapid City, Rapid Canyon, Ho.
Springs, Mammoth cave, Cave o. thu
Winds, Crystal cave, Harvey pnaA,
Sylvan lake, Spearfsh canyon, Fort
Meade, United States fish ~hatcheEies,
United States reclamation project al
Belle Fourche and the Devils tower
over the line in Wyoming. These trips
are to be made for the tourists trade
especially and to be under the reg la
ton and supervision of the Deadwood
Business club. The railroads are to
be asked to take a hand in dissemin-
ating advertising matter in the cas-
and a start is to be made to build
up the Black Hills as a summer re-
sort.

CONDITION OF BANKS
Call Shows Over Four Millions We're
Withdrawn in Three Months

Pierre-The total combined in
dividual deposits in the state and ma
tional banks doing business in
South Dakota, at the call for condition
on the Goth day of June, showed $751;
269, 265. II. This is a reduction of $4,-
2 6,773.04 from the showing of the
same funds on the call of March %.
This reduction is no doubt from tho
Withdrawals of cash for farming oper-
ations, as the state banks show a re-
duction of over $4,000, 600 in their
checking accounts, and the nationals
show a reduction of about $4,000, O0Or
while the savings accounts and the
time certificates, themselves a species
of savings, show an increase. The
decrease will no doubt be wiped out
by the time of another report, when
the farmers will be getting returns
for their seasons work.
By far the heaviest deposits are
shown in the 4S2 state banks operat-
ing in the state, as they were carry
ing $5O,545, 1851, while the SO nation
al banks were carrying S2S, 723, 726.Oo
While the state banks show a de-
crease of SO, 200, 900 in their check
ing accounts, they show an increase OF
$131, 900 in their direct savings ac-
counts and over 81 ,000, 900 in their
time certificates.

GOOD WORK IS PROGRESSING
Women In Every State Join Earnestly
In Campaign Against Tu
bercuiosis.

Four years age the only active wom-
en- workers in the anti-tuberculosis
movement were a little group of about
80 women's clubs. Today 100000
women, under the United States, are
banded together against this disease,
and more than 1000 clubs are taking
a special interest in the crusade. Not
less than $500,000 is raised annually
by them for tuberculosis work, be-
sides millions that are secured through
their efforts in state and municipal
appropriations. Mrs. Rufus p. Will
liams Is the chairman OF the depart
ment that directs this work. In ad-
dition to the work OF the General Fed
Grafton of Women's Clubs, the Public
Health Education committee of the
American Medical association, COM
posed largely Of women physicians,
has carried on an educational cam
paign OF lectures during the past year
in which thousands have been reached.

Little, but, Oh, My!

= Senator Smoot Of Utah tells a story
on the late z. H. H1rriman, which
sounds somewhat familiar. He says
that when the Salt Lake cutoff was
completed Mr.. Hartman took a large
party of big railroad men out to It.
They had their pictures taken at
the right spot scenicaily. Mr.. Harri-
man stood at n end Of the group.
When the pictures were printed and
the photographer brought them around
the railroad men examined them.
"Why," shouted one of the guests,
where's Mr.. Hartmann"
do you mean that little chap that
stood at the end?" asked the photog-
rapher. "Why, | cut him Off"

LACK OF MONEY

3 1t is not always that a lack of
money is a benefit.

her health to the fact that she could
not pay in advance the fee demand

case she says:

emit physicians during 10 years OF
stomach trouble. Lately l called on
another who told me he could not cure
me; that | had neuralgia OF the stom-
ach. Then | went to a specialist who
told me I had catarrh of the stomach
and said he could cure me in Tour
months but would have to have his
money down. l could not raise the
necessary sum and in my extremity l
was led to quit coffee and try Postum.
