Government Town Lot Sale

The Secretary of the Interio,
has ordered the auction sale OF
hve townsites in the Cheyenne
River and Standing Rock Indian
reservations. The lots in the town
site of Timber Lake will be sold at
Timber Lake on August 10Th, and
those in Dupree will be sold at
Aberdeen on August 22nd. Both
these towns are on the Milwaukee
railroad. The other three townsites
will be sold at Lennon, South Da-
kota, beginning August Doth. The
purchase price is to be paid in
three annual installments, and any
person may buy as many lots as
he chooses.
The first 5000 persons to whom
numbers were assigned at the reg
istration last fall have been given
opportunity to make entry, and
about 100000 acres remain for
entry by persons holding the high
er numbers, who will begin their
filings on September 1st.
All the lands which are not en-
tered by the persons holding num-
bers will be subject to entry on
and after November lst by any
person who is qualified to make a
homestead entry.

walton.
At the hearing it was shown
that the claimant had provided a
comfortable small house on the
tract; had broken five acres, which
was cultivated; and used the claim
as home while she taught school
at point about four miles from
the tract. She boarded near her
school during that time, but went
to the claim every Friday evening
remaining until Monday morning,
except during the holiday vacation,
which she spent with her parents
at Huron.
The house was comfortably fur
nished and was supplied with suffi-
cient fuel to withstand the severity
of winter, and the residence was
held on the land up to the time of
final proof. When proof was
made, the claimant left her furni-
ture in the building until part of
the structure and contents were
stolen, when she sold what was
left of the hailding. and took away
her belongings.
This was given as one of the
evidencences of bad faith on her
part. After a review of the case
the holdings of the general land
office are reversed, and proof sus-
tanned. This case will be of more
than passing interest to many young
women who are holding homesteads
while teaching school, and will
likely be used as precedent to

Appointing Postmasters

We imagine that after all is said
and done about it very few South
Dakota towns will try to elect their
own postmasters. 1t is one thing
to provide for party election and
quite another thing to have one,
as the late primaries showed. Per-
haps it will get to be so democrats
are elected postmasters by ere
publican" voters at city elections;
who can tell9-Argus-Leader.
There it goes again. The har-
mony convention has received an
other prod. The insurance graft
is a nightmare to the Leader SIM
ply because he hasn't chance at
the crib. The appointment of post
masters by the congressman is
alright because the congressman
are stalwarts and can be relied up
on to always appoint stalwart
postmasters. If the choice is left
to the patrons of the Office, who
belong to the party in power,
there would be no chance of get
ting democratic postmaster under
a republican administration, but
supposing there was. If republi-
cans consider the democratic can
didate the most competent man,
and the one to give the best salts
faction, there is no reason on earth
why the patrons of the office
shouldn't have the man or woman
they want. If the Argus Leader
represents the sentiment of the
stalwart faction, there will be no
harmony in the republican party,
in South Dakota. Broad minded
and sensible republicans ought to
be always in favor of eliminating
graft, no matter where and in
what form it is found. The plat
form adopted at the state conven-
tion IS good enough for any good
republican and a pugnacious ami
NAL with horns, be he progressive
or stalwart, should not be turned
into = herd whore peace and har-
mony reigns. These beligerent
editors are disturbing factors and
should Be releeated to the rear.

Sour Grapes

! 1t is a matter of pride to the
newspaper craft that none of the
self-respecting newspapers of the
state are defending the insurance
statement graft. A few of them
hate to let go of some helpful pa
tronage, but only a few of them de-
fend a graft which is too manifest
for discussion. The newspapers
will make up in self-respect and in
independence what they lose in this
patronage, and when the law is
repealed, most of the publishers
will be heartily glad of it. 1t will
then no longer be possible for pet
ty officials to boast abous the num-
Der of newspapers they control. =
Argus Leader.
The trouble with the Argus
Leader is, they didn't have n look
in on this graft. Had they been
the big pig in the puddle, they
would have gotten into the trough
lengthwise and kept every other
pig from getting smell. Because
he hasn't been able to get in he
stands back and squeals. The
queer thing about it is, the Argus
Leader upholds the system of post
master appointments recommended
by politicians and were pullers
which is graft, SO much more
gigantic, that the insurance graft
is mere bagatelle.
The Argus Leader also favored
the two cent passenger fare and
the next year came out and said it
was joke, sort of burlesque on |
the progressives. All through the |
last primary election the Argus
Leader was foremost among the |
stalwarts in denouncing the ad-
mlnlstration of Governor Vessey |
rs extravagant and unworthy of
the support ofthe republican party. |
Now he has to chew his words,
comes out and supports the ticket.
This is the sort of man who has
the effrOntery to say no self-re-
specting newspaper defends the
law requiring insurance companies
to publish annual statements of |
their business. The same as banks
have to do, county treasurer, cor
porations and all other societies
that handle public money, and
where publicity is the only safe
guard against rascality. No, if the
insurance law is repealed it will be
done at the behest of it's friends
and not it's enemies.
The Argus Leader is a reaction
ary, its opposition can Away be
relied upon when any measure
benefting the common people is
advocated. Prejudice and envy
are the dominant characteristics of
this editor that makes him stand
back and squeal.

Headed for Philip

! Sturgis Standards: H. Yahr was
IN town Monday and cashed a
check for sos, for right of way
through his land for the North
western railway. Mr.. Yahr is To-
Gated near Red Owl and says all
neighbors to the east have sold and
been paid for right of ways. The
road is headed from Nisland in the
direction of Philip.
The editor of the Standard knows
what he is talking about. All
great things point toward Phil
ip. It's the center of gravitation.
The magnetic needle that has al
ways heretofore, pointed at the
north pole, now points at Philip.
1t is only question of time when
some of the great railways such as

waukee q st. p. the M. Il St.
l.. will be fighting for the right of
way through her streets. IF our
information is not at fault, the G..
B. 4 q. are already surveying a
line headed toward Philip via
Murdo. 1t is not an exaggerated
egotism like some towns are Attic
ted with, but a recognition of the
prepotent elements drifting to the
center OF industrial activity, and
commercial supremacy. 1t makes
us think of Waterloo, when there
was sound of revelry, by night
and Belgian's capital had gathered
there her beauty and her chiyalry.

was low, bloodless lay the untrod-
den snow, or at Winchester when

der bore, the herald in haste to the

battle was on once more"
The bright and rising young
men of America, who have been
our colleges and universi-
ties have all spoken these inspiring
thoughts of our great ancestors.
They are worthy of imitation for
they arouse in the minds of our
American boys spirit that is not
dismayed or cowed by disaster but
fills them with the unquenchable
flame, that persevers to the end.
All things come to them that wait.
All roads lead to Philip.

A New Ruling

A new ruling has gone into effect
at the different land offices over
the country related to the sale of
isolated tracts. Heretofore it has
beer the custom for a person who
wished to have tract of land sold
to notify the land Office in the dis
trict in which the land was located
and in due time it was advertised
and sold to the highest bidder and
the person bidding it in paid for
the advertisement, but under the
new ruling the person who asks to
have the land sold pays for the ad-
vertisement whether he is success
full in bidding it in or not. Then.
in place of bidding on the land as
one does at an auction, a record of
each bid is made, the person bid
ding and who they are bidding for
and the price of their bids, then
the bids remain open for one hour
and before the land is finally
struck off the low bidder has a
chance to raise his bid and the bid
ding is conducted this way till the
highest price is reached. Then
these bids are sent to Washington
and there filed for record or in
spection. This requiring the per-
son who has the land put on the
market 10 pay the advertisement
fees whether he gets the land, or
not seems to be an injustice and
will have tendency to cut down
the number of isolated tracts offer
ed for sale. Stock Growers News.

THREE LIVES LOST IN CHEYENNE
Attempt to Ford River at the Burton
Crossing and are Drowned

A terrible tragedy occurred on
the Cheyenne river about fifty
miles northwest of Philip on FRI
day when three ladies. drowned in
attempting to ford the river. at the
Burton crossing. Those lwhose
lives were claimed by the treacher-
ous river were Miss Eta V. AL
drich, age 26, Miss Blanche At
wood, age %, and Miss Sadie
Trainer, all of whom have claims
in Meade county near Brushie.
They were on their way to Philip
and had secured the team and SER
vices of Frank Waggoner to take
them to this city. On nearing the
Cheyenne they met a freighter and
asked how the river was and were
told that it was alright as he had
just crossed. When they reached
the stream some doubt was ex-
pressed by Mr.. Waggoner as to
the advisibility of attempting to
cross, but the ladies assured him
that they had crossed many times
and there was no danger. Half
way across they were struck by
wall of water which bore down up
on them with an irresistible force
and striking the buggy broadside,
overturned it, and threw the occu-
pants into the swirling water, from
which only the driver escaped with
his life by clinging to the lines and
being safely pulled ashore.
Nearly four inches of rain that
fell in the vicinity of Rapid City
was the cause of the sudden rise
in the Cheyenne and so sudden
and so unexpected was the on
slaught of the water that little or
no warning was given to apprise
them of the peril of their position.
The conflict of man against the
elements was short and the over
whelming odds against him was
apparent. None of the party could
swim, and had they been able to,
the chances are they would have
been exhausted before reaching
the shore.
Although Mr.. Waggoner could
not swim he made desperate efforts
to save the rest of the party and
succeeded in resculng Miss Aldrich
but not in time to save her life.
The horses wrenched the running
gear free from the box and landed
on sand bar several rods down
the river from which they were
finally rescued.
A. S. Aldrich, father of Miss
Aldrich, and relatives of Miss At
wood were notified of the tragedy
and the bodies of Miss Atwood and
Miss Aldrich were brought to
Philip where they were prepared
for burial at the Aldrich undertak-
ing rooms.
The funeral services of Miss
Aldrich were held at the Methodist
church on Monday afternoon and
interment was made in the Odd
Fellows cemetery. She leaves a
father, brother and two sisters to
mourn her death. The body of Miss
Atwood was sent to Artesia. Mon
day, accompanied by the bereayed
relatives where intermen was
made.
Parties are still searching for
the body of Miss Trainer and up
to this time it has not been found.
: The entire sympathy ofthe COM
munity is extended to the bereaved
relatives whose loved ones met
such untimely death in the pitiless
waters Of the treacherous Chey-I
enne.

Democrats Hold Meeting

A meeting was held in the Ma.
sonic hall last Friday by the lead
ing democrats of the county, and
Robert Murphy of Fort Pierre,
elected chairman, Maurice McMil-
Ian of Fort Pierre, secretary, and
VIM. Healy of Midland, assistant
secretary. Several speeches we're
made by the different members
present, and plans laid for the
coming campaign. Among those
who were present from out of town
were: Francis p. Ryan and VIM.

OF Murdo, J.C Carr, Burg Brown,
Fred Rowe, Robert Murphy, Mike
G. Kennedy of Fort Pierre, and
Cleophas Rousseau, of Powell.
Although Stanley county is con-
sidered a strong republican county,
the various democratic nominees
are going to put up hard battle
and are hopeful of carrying away
at least part of the spoils. There
are some good men on the demo-
cratic ticket who are entitled to
consideration at the hands of the
