according to some of the latter
worthless around Los Angeles.
one clerk was reciting a list of some
! of the snags which he ran I'D against
almost any old day and they sounded
like the rawlings of a mind beset by
snakes, yet this particular clerk is
noted for his patience and suavity.
THE hotel manager can get away"
began the clerk. But the man be-
hind the desk can't. When things be-
gin to get little too swift for the
manager he can point both hands to
the zenith, mentally declare everything
off and hike for regions not inhabited
by kicking guests. But the man be-
hind the desk has to stick and fight
them until the end of his watch.
yes, sir, if there is one job on this
old earth calculated to make man
wish at times that a few of his friends
were passing by and remarklng.
Don't he look natural 1t is the hotel

FLAW IN SUFFRAGE
AMENDMENT FEARED
FOUND EXERCISING CLERG PUT
ON TITLE NAMING SECTION
THAT is NOT IN ANY WAY
AFFECTED BY MEASURE.

! Pierre, S. D.-The equal suffrage
people are feeling a little uneasy Just
at present over the situation in re-
gard to the amendment which is to be
submitted at the November election
which seeks to grant them the right
of suffrage. There was considerable
milling in the legislature on that
resolution, and on final action the
resolution was amended. The origi-
nal resolution sought to amend sec
ton 9 of Article VII of the Constiu-
ton, but before it was finally acted
uron it was deemed best to add sec
ton 10 to that Article, instead of
amend. section 8. The journals of
the legislature show that the reso-
luton was so amended, and that the
title was amended to conform to the
amendment. But the e%ngrossing
force evidently "fell down. and while
they Incorporated the amendment to
the resolution, they did not make the
change in the title, and while the
title proposes to amend section 9 the
resolution itself adds section 10. AS
both the title and resolution cover
the same subject matter 1t is not
likely that the difference will result
In any trouble in case the amendment
carries, but there is enough differ
ence 20 cause some uneasiness over
what might possibly occur in case Of
technical objections.

WANT STATE PARK
FROM LAND GRANT
SUGGESTED THAT LIEU LANDS
IN BLACK HILLS BE USED AS e
SUMMER RESORT.

Pierre, s. D.-The representatives
Of the state land department who
have been doing field work in the
black Hills on the selection Of lieu
lands for the school sections in the
Forest reserve, which the state will
surrender to the general govern
ment, are we'll along with their
work, and a few weeks more will
clear it up. The lands to be selected,
10000 in a compact body. lie
in townships 8 and 4 south, range six
east, in Pennington and Custer coun-
ties. 1t has been suggested that this
tract be created into a state park
where the people of the prairie sec
ton can come for inexpensive sum-
mer outings among the pine clad
hills and mountains. With proper
car this could be made an ideal out-
ing place which would be taken adj
vantage of by hundreds of residents
of the state each summer. The Black
Hills are becoming more and more
popular as a place for a summer out
ing, those who go each year bringing
recruits with them in their future
trips, and this would aid in such a
move. The coming legislative SEES
sion will be called upon to care for
this tract.

' the various companies of the state

drew pay for this period from the
time they went into camp until mus
