Presidents Message.

TTCoIuCub mOood0Cs
The presidents message submitted
to Congress Tuesday is an able docu-
ment, and if his recommendation
are carried out we may hope for bet
ter days in this country. True,
there is very little in this message
that was not in that submitted
to the first sessio nof this Con-
gress, for the present session is not
expected to do much more than COM
plete the work already begun, but the
urgency with which the chief execu-
tive lays the needs of the nation be-
fore the lawmakers, and the clear cut
manner in which his message is put
should be stimulus to the members
of both houses to do their best for
the good of the whole nation.
In the last part of the document
a few lines are devoted to an appeal
in favor of the Freedmen's Bank de-
positors and the semi-centennial cele-
bration of the emancipation of the
slaves. These recommendations will
be pleasing to every Negro who has
spark of race pride, but the case must
be submitted to men who are not in a
position to sympathize with either
recommendation, and as to whether
action is taken on them will depend
largely upon the interest manifested
by the Negroes themselves.
The recommendation that Peary be
rewarded for his North Pole explora-
tions will not be received with good
taste. 1t is not a popular subject by
any means. There are just about as
many who doubt him as there are
who doubt Cook, and Cook doubts
himself. The only advantage Peary
has is Matt Henson, an English
speaking Negro, and a citizen Of the
United States, was with him, and is
a W tness to the claim. But be that
as it may, the attitude of the masses
is not changed They do not feel
that the nation is indebted to Mr.
Peary.
Another recommendation that will
not be received with good favor is
that suggesting pensions for govern
ment clerks. These clerks are paid
well for their services, and are nc
more entitled to pensions than clerks
who work for private concerns. Any
plan of pensioning them will be q
burden on the people, and this ma
ton feels that it has about all Of
that kind of trouble it needs.
The message as a whole is very &C
ceptable, and if the Congress carries
out onehalf of the commendablt
recommendations in it the people
will be satisfied.

It is a common saying that athletes
cannot come back. The term has
come into general use since the agi-
tation was begun to force Jim Jeffries
out of retirement to fight Jack John
son for the championship of the
world. 1t is no woften applied to
men in every walk of life, but we do
not believe the term can be more
pointedly applied than in the case OF
our able colleague, the associate edi-
tor of the Philadelphia Tribune. Re
plying to a correction by the New
York Age he says:
The Neto York Age corrects our
statement that George Peabody
was a Southern man by saying
that he was born in Massachu-
sets of New England parentage."
We know that Put he lived and
made the fortune he left for
Southern education in the South
and Great Britain. The editor
of The Age was born very much
in the South but he is Northern
man in his living and thinking,
and could not live and think as
he does in the South. 1t does
not appear where age affected
the old mans speed in that

ored men and women can go and Sc
lect their seats in the same way that
white people can. In fact, in not q
few theatres of New York City,, col
ored people are actually prohibited
from entering. There are moving

between Johnson and Jeffries where
no colored man is permitted to enter
When it comes to discrimination in
regard to colored labor, that exists all
over Ne wYork City.
These are some of the matters
which these organizations should give
attention to right at home. In a
great many cases while we are spend
in gour time bemoaning the fate of
the "opoor Negro" in the South, these
people are making greater progress
than is often true of our race in many
Northern cities. Let us begin first of
all to get rid of discrimination right
at our door and then we will be in
better shaye to help our brethren in
the South
1t will he "a good thing, for instance,
if some of these organizations would
bring a lawsuit to test the fact
whether or not a colored person can
be debarred from a theatre after he
has bought a seat. They ought to
test the fact whether al colored person

considerations that demand attention.

we trust that they will select men

place they are given. We have plenty
of such men in this city, some of

ference was not only to retain the
already strong tie of friendship be-
tween the two schools, but also to
build up new ties and substantiate
the old.
The discussions that followed the
reading of the different papers and
orations were helpful to all who
heard the very interesting talks got
ten off by the students Of both schools.
The last meeting before this was
held in December, 1904, before the
burning of Roger Williams, at which
time Mr.. Mack Ross, of Walden, was
elected Treasurer and $12 were placed
in his hands for safe keeping, and
after a lapse of six years he proves
himself worthy of the trust by pre-
senting to the BODY December 8,
1910, the $12 he had carefully kept
from the last meeting held in Decef-
ber 1904.
The papers, addresses and orations
were gotten off to advantage, which
goes to show that the students Of the
two universities are on the alert to
beStir themselves to self-interest to
maintain friendship and an affec-
ton among students mat is indefinite
in its scope.
The conference was dismissed by
Mr. Jeffries, the President, and every

with new determinations and with

Refunding and Waterworks
Bonds Voted at the
Special Election
PERRY ELECTED COUNCILMAN
Defeats Dewey by Vote of 8 TO
/ and Succeeds Clark
on the Board

BY the passage of the bond
issues at the special election Tues
day the municipality can go ahead
with many improvements.
Both bond issues passed, though
by close margains. The slight
opposition which was manifested
not endangering the propositions
in the least. Under the law,
majority Of the votes cast for the
head of the ticket at the next preI
ceding election must be cast for q
bond Issue 70 make the issue legal.
Mayor Stoltzman received LAG
votes at the spring election, and
therefore SO votes was required to
carry the bond issues, The re-
funding bonds were carried with
one vote to spare and the water
works bonds with four votes to
spare.
The vote on the refunding bonds
was 70 for and 10 against, and on
the waterworks bonds the vote
was 73 for and II against.
The total vote cast was 96. but
this would have been much less
had it not been for the efforts put
forth by j, w. Harris. Two
hours before the polls closed less
than so votes had been polled.
Mr.. Harris then rounded up elect
ors in his autcmovile, taking
enough voters to the polls to carry
the bond issues.
Each bond issue is in the sum
of $5, 200 and draw 5 per cent in
terest, the bonds to mature one
yearly, the last one coming due in
twenty years. Outstanding war.
rants drawing 7 per cent interest
can now be taken up. water mains

avenues can be built, sidewalk
construction can continue, a new
Jail be built, and the city will
have money in its treasury with
which to meet bills when due.

Vice President Sewe of the Milwaukee Road Seys
Intention of the Company to Have Trains in Opera
tion Between Mobridge and the Terminal of
the Cheyenne Before Snow Comes
Western Papers Report Great Activity tue Part of
MilwauLee's Chief Rival Which Figures Connect
ind Its Belle Fourche and Dallas Terminals
inc, Orders Being to Complet

Trains will he running into
Faith, the terminal Of the Chey-
enne line, before snow flies. This
is authentic information vouched
for by the railroad officials high in
the councils OF the powers that be,
despite assertions made in Aber-
deem, Pierre and LeBeau papers
that work on the new lines is to
be abandoned and that the new
track will not be laid until next
year.
Steel has been laid about twenty
miles beyond the junction, or
nearly fifty miles out Of Mobridge,
This is nearly half way to the
terminus. The track laying ma
chine is being used and about two
miles of steel is being laid daily.
Mr.. Anderson, in charge of tue
track laying, received orders the
first Of the week to have steel into
Faith within two months time if
at all possible and also to put in a
second track laying crew on the
Cannon Ball line. Work is there
fore proceeding on both lines.
The grade is not as yet complete
on the Cheyenne line but these
contractors have also received or
ders to push their work to the
limit.
A grading outfit is located
about three-quarters oJ a mile west
of town and is working this way"
says the last issue of the Leader
published at Dupree, on the Chey-

completed between here and Faith,

rushed. 1t will not be many
weeks before the whistle of the

WEATHER MEN
SEND BALLOONS

The United States Weather bu-
reau is sending up from
Huron number of what are
known as Sounding Balloons"
in order to ascertain the condition
of the atmospheric at great eleya-
.tions as compared with that at the
earth's surface. These balloons
are constructed of rubber and
when inflated with hydrogen gas
measure from 6 to s feet in dame
ter, and have lifting capacity of
from 6 to 10 pounds. Each bal
loon carries with it a light wicker
basket containing a delicately con-
structed instrument which auto
matically records the temperature,
pressure and humidity in the re-
gion of the atmosphere to which
the balloon ascends, which is in
some cases as much as IL to Is
miles above the surface of the
earth.
Attached to each balloon and
basket is a parachute. The de-
creasing density of the atmosphere
as the balloon ascends permits the
expansion of the hydrogen gas to
finally explode the balloon, there
by releasing the parachute, which
gradually descends tv the earth
and safely lands the basket con-
training the instrument, the latter
saving faithfully made its record
through every stage of it's progress
through the air.
Attached to the basket is a card
containing detailed instructions for
whoever may find it, and offering
compensation as a reward for its
return by express at the expense
OF the government, to some desig-
mated Office of the u. S. weather
bureau.
1t is very important that the
finder of one Of these baskets
should not in any way tamper
with the instrument, as the record
made by it is delicately traced on a
smoked cylinder, and any oblitera-
ton Of this record would materi-
ally effect, if not wholly destroy
its value.
