The board of county commissioners
met in regular quarterly session at
Brookings on Tuesday morning OF this
week. and recognized for the year by
re-electing Commissioner George E.
Hoch, of Elkton, chairman. The board
then designated the county Official
newspapers for the year as follows:
Brookings Press. White Leader and
The Volga Tribune. The designation
was made in pursuance to custom
adopted some years ago and is very
satisfactory to the publishers of the
county. 1t is probable that the bust
ness before the board will keep the
commissioners in session all of this
week and a good share of the week
following.

The general opinion is that our big

hesitates to give a fellow a good
pounding when he richly deserves it.,
but the probabilities are that he lost
some of his good nature Monday
night and there will be a different
story TO tell the next time.

MAKE It A CIVIC
MOVEMENT
Boy Scouts Given Big I'm
petus by Organization Of
Citizens Committee.

Rev. j. w. Johnson appeared be-
fore the Commercial Club last night
and outlined the origin, growth ana
purposes of the Boy Scout movement
in England, America, Washington
and Wenatchee. So much interest
was shown that after adjournment a
large number of citizens remained
to participate in the discussion.
The club went on record as favor
ing the movement in this city and
recommending that it be made civic
in scope. 1t was decided to under
take securing needed equipment for
the boys and hold all property in the
name of the city. For this purpose
and to plan for the organization in
general. a citizens executive commit
tee was formed, consisting of Rev.
j. w. Johnson, chairman; Feed
Kemp, r. S. Ludington, o. E. Nc
Laughlin, DR.. l.. F. Buck, DR.. r. G..
Congdon, DR.. w. A. Stevenson, G. H.
Pau, Clark Cox, Father Van de
Walle. l.. J. Crollard, c. H. Arm
strong, w. o. Fowler, Judge Grim
shaw, John A. Gellatly.
One of the first things that will
be done is to get the boys their uni
forms. 1t has been found that they
are willing and able to do this for
themselves. A New York manufac-
turer makes a price Of s3.25 per suit,
which includes coat, pants, shirt, cap
and canteen.
A drum and bugle corps will be
organized at once and later a rifle
corps. All the boys will be taught
ito make good sailors, soldiers, camp
| ers, explorers and hardy, patriotic
citizens.

No wife could make fairer offer,
but the deacon didn't appear to be
greatly Interested. That circular went
on to say that IL None-Such with
music box in the springs was preferred
the order must SO state. Lying down
on the bed would start the music and
save the cost and trouble Of going to
the opera. Caruso and Melba could be
heard singing under the bed without a
cent extra cost. This feature was pat
ented in fisteen different countries and
must not be infringed. The deacon was
almost hearing Caruso's high notes
when Mrs. Dolby said:
But while I'm wiliin' to die for your
sake, Samuel, don't want to be killed
by bomb. 1t would jest tear me all to
pieces, Mrs. Fletcher says. and there'd

That was another fair offer but the
deacon only cracked his toes over it
and made no reply. The circular told
him that the None-Such could also be
fitted with an apparatus to throw a

SUBSCRI- TION RITES.
PUBLICITY A CORRECTIVE.

How to deal with the social evil
Is a difficult problem with which
large municipalities have to deal. The
thing that makes the problem so diff
ficult is the fact that too many So
called respectable men find excessive
profit in it. Seattle and Tacoma and
Spokane are wrestling with it, but
Spokane has the edge on the other
two cities.
One of the best correctives of this
evil is publicity. Let the public
know what men they are who receive
high rentals for property leased for
immoral purposes without necessitat-
ing a perusal of the tax records The
municipal authorities of Milwaukee
have hit upon a good scheme. They
purpose to make every unsanitary
tenement and disreputable resort
bear in conspicuous lettering on its
front the name of the owner of the
property. In Spokane the city au-
.thorities propose to prosecute the
owners of property who rent ii for
Immoral purposes. IN Seattle what
the municipal authorities have re
fused to do the courts have made
mandatory in forbidding the rental
of property for the purpose of con.
yerting it into immoral resorts.
When all is said, the control OF
vice rests largely on the character OF
administrative officers. A liberal
mayor can never see anything until
someone files a complaint or directs
his attention to the infringement oil
"a law. a mayor who has respect fol
his oath of Office does not need the
pFomptings of monitor.

4 COMMANDING PERSONALITY

To thousands of Iowans in the
state of Washington, the unexpected
death of Senator Jonathan p. Dolli-
yer brings keen regret. Senator Dol
liver was one of the commanding
personalities OF the middle west, and
he belonged to that type of states
men who combine high ideals and
great ability with democratic habits
and sincerity and purity of life. He
possessed courage and infexibility Of
purpose.
The speech made by Senator Dolli-
yer just before the closing of the last
session of congress, in which he JUS
fed his acts of insurgency, was a
masterpiece. No senator was more
familiar with the intricacles of the
tariff than was Mr.. Dolliver, and in
his death the advocates of a tariff
which is just to all interests have
lost a mighty champion.
1t requires great endurance and
places men under great physical
strain to assume leadership in great
political contests like those which
occurred in the recent session of con-
gress. Sincere and conscientious
men like Dolliver and La Toilette are
unsparing of their physical strength
and frequently undergo exertions the
after effects Of which lead to physical
collapse. When men of this tyne
fall in the front ranks In their fight
for great principles, their loss is
national calamity.
