son and Mr.. Thompson. They ran into
a post, tipping the rig over and Mr..
Brandsdell had his shoulder dislocated
and was badly cut across the lip,
several stitches being required to close
the wound. He was bringing his son 10
the city to have him examined before
the board of insanity and it is proba.
BILE that he will be taken to Yankton
for treatment. He is violent at times
and recently attempted to set fire to his
fathers house and barn. He is now in
care of the sheriff, pending his eX-

TO CONTROL FLOOD WATERS
OF SIOUX AND FURNISH POWER
The Poinsett Project is the Object
of an Amendment to River and
Harbors Bill In Senate

A Washington dispatch under date Of
Saturday says that Senator Gamble
proposed two amedments to the rivers
and harbors bill in the senate, and
will urge their adoption when that
measure is considered. One amend
ment increases the appropriation for
maintenance of the Missouri river the
coming year from $175,00 to $500, 900
and provides that this sum shall be
available for use on the rivers only
from Fort Benton to Kansas City, in
stead of the mouth of the Missouri
as required by the measure which pas
sed the house. The other amend
ment submitted by Senator Gamble ap-
propriates $4,000 for the control
of the flood waters of the Big Sioux
and the construction of dams in Lakes
Kampeska and Poinsett.
When the rivers and harbors bill
was before the house this week the
Dakota and Nebraska members made
an effort to have the s175,000 appro-
priation for maintenance CT the Mis-
souri, apply only to the upper river
above Kansas City, ~contending this
was only fair in view of the 81 900, 900
appropriated for the improvement of
the river below Kansas City. Their
amendment was defeated after a
| spirited debate and a close vote in
the house, and Senator Gamble ac-
cordingly has considerable hope of
getting an increased appropriation
this season for the upper Missouri.
Senator CANDLES proposition to Sc
cure a more permanent stage of the
Missouri by controlling the flood
waters of the Big Sioux has been
recommended already by army engin-
GERS who some time ago made the
survey for dams in Lakes Kampeska
and Poinsett. These dams, in addi-
ton to furnish protection against the
Big Sioux floods, could be utilized to
produce power for both Sioux Falls
and Sioux City, and it is believed that
eventually they would greatly add to
the manufacturing industries of both
these cities.

ATTEMPTS TO MURDER
CONDUCTOR FRANK REICH
intoxicated Passenger Objects TO Being
Placed in the Smoking Car
and Uses His Gun.

The following is from the Rapid City
Journal and will be Of interest to the
friends of Frank Reich, a former resi-
dent Of Brookings:
Only by cool nerve and quick ac-
ton did Conductor Frank Reich
save his life yesterday afternoon
when a drunken rowdy attempted to
murder him on his train when it was
running into Quinn.
Conductor Reich runs on the Pierre
branch of the North-W Western system
between here and Pierre. Yesterday
a man boarded the train at Philip and
took a seat in the chair car back of
the smoker, where many were
riding. When Reich came through to
collect the fares the man whose sur
name is Patton, offered him a dollar
for the ride to Rapid City. This Reich
refused to accept and Patton paid his
fare to Cottonwood. After the Cotton
wood station was passed Reich came
through the car again and demanded
another fare from Patton, who demur.
red to paying, but finally did so. He
then became abusive and used obscene
language. Conductor Reich seized him
by the shoulders and lifted him from
his seat and hustled him to the vesti.
bule of the car, where he told him to
pass OF into the smoker. Patton, in
stead of going into the smoker went
back into the chair car. Then Reich
called to his brakeman and the two
seized Patton and forcibly took him in.
to the smoking car, where he was
placed into a seat and told to behave
himself. BY this time Patton was
crazy mad and when Conductor Reich
stepped back, Patton got up. Quickly
he reached into his inside coat pocket
Reich saw the glitter of a gun and
quick as a flash sprung towards Pat
ton Selling his hand which held the
gun and bore it downward. There was
d report anu Relcn lelt the SUNG OF q
bullet on the side of his left leg near
the groin. Then both he and Brake
man Crow took Patton in hand and
succeeded in %wrenching the revolver
from his grasp, but in so doing were
forced to pry his thumb and fingers
from the weapon. 1t required the COM
bined efforts Of both of the railroad
men to subdue the enraged Patton,
who threatened to kill them both. Fin
ally he was placed in charge of Daw-
o Lyman, a telegraph lineman, and
at Quinn a dispatch was sent to Sheriff
Hewett, who met the train on it's ar
rival here and arrested Patton.

SPUD RAISERS
WILL ORGANIZE
POTATO GROWERS TO FORM AN
ASSOCIATION.
MEETING HERE SATURDAY
ASSOCIATION WILL BE OF BENE-
FIT IN RAISING PRICES.

A number Of carloads Of potatoes
are being raised each year In the VIC
unity of Bookings and Aurora. The
acreage Is increasing every year. 1t
is estimated that twenty farmers are
raising in the aggregate two hundred
acres Of several varieties of potatoes.
For the most part each potato raiser
sells his crop by the wagon load and
takes the going market price. Some
of the merchants try to get enough to-
gether to make up a carload but have
difficulty in getting enough Of one
variety to fill a car. 1t is well known
that mixed potato S sell at about the
lowest market price. If the farmers
who are raising from five to twenty
acres Of potatoes each would get to-
gether and form a potato growers
association, they might secure several
dollars per acre more for their po-
tatoes than they have been getting by
selling them practically at retail. Any
one good variety Of potatoes in car
load lots will sell for several cents
more per bushel than they will bring
if sold as mixed potatoes. This means
at least $40 more on the acre for this
side crop.
In Darlington, N. D., a commercial
club took the matter up over a year
ago, helped organize a potato growers
association and secured the co-opera.

potatoes in the vicinity of that enter.
prising town. Farmers planted the
same kind of seed and cultivated as
nearly alike is possible and last fall
they sold potatoes at an advanced
figure and all are pleased with the
arrangement.
A movement is on foot to organize
such an association in this county.
A meeting has been called for the
purpose Of forming an organization
and will be held in this city on Sat.
urday the Goth of this month. All
who are interested in forming such an
association will please inquire at this
office for the time and place of meet

FAIR
ASSOCIATION
HOLDS ITS ANNUAL MEETING
FRIDAY.
S. J. RUDOLPH PRESIDENT
WELL KNOWN AUCTIONEER WILL
HEAD THE ASSOCIATION.

The annual meeting of the Brook
ings county fair association was held
at the opera house last Friday after
noon. There was a good attendance,
considerably more than a majority of
the stock being represented, end there
was a number present from different
parts Of the county. In the absence OF
the president, F. ]. Carlisle, who is
on the coast, the meeting was called
to order by Vice-President f. l.. Spur
ling. The old board of directors was
reelected with the exception Of F. j.
Carlisle, who has left the city, and
Geo. N. Kennard was selected to fill
this vacancy. The board is now made
up as follows: Horace Fishback. f.
l.. Squirting, S. ]. Rudolph, E. C. Olson,
M. G.. Carlisle, Frank Sherwin, w. b.
Denhart, H. l. Stearns, Geo. N. Ken
nard. This was the only business
of Importance transacted at this meet
ing.
The board of directors met at the
office Of E. L. Squirting in the New
Century building Saturday evening,
and elected the following officers:
President, s. J. Rudolph; vice-presi-
dent, E. G.. Olson; secretary, George
D. Cole; treasurer H. F. Haroldson;
executive committee, E. L. Sputling,
E. c. Olson, NJ. G.. Carlisle.
September 20, 81, % and % were
selected as the dates for the annual
fair, which will bring the fair nearly
the same time as last year. 1t was
arranged to have the premium list
ready for distribution on June /, a
most excellent idea, as the fair has
been handicapped in past years by the
late distribution of the lists. The
book will be thoroughly revised and
brought up to date and there will be
a number of new features.
The executive committee was au-
thorized to sell a thousand dollars or
more of stock, the money to be used
for the construction Of a woman's
building and a large horse barn. These
two buildings are badly needed and
it is hoped that enough stock can be
disposed of to construct them the COM
ing summer. Frank Sherwin and A.
E. Chamberlain were appointed as a
committee to arrange for a township
contest Of farm products. The details
for the contest have not been worked
out as yet, but is should be one of
the best features of ne fair. A COM
mittee was also appointed to wait on
the board of county commissioners and
request that an appropriation be made
for a county exhibit at the state fair,
and there is no good reason why the
request should not be granted. 1t is
a disgrace that a county Of the size
and wealth of Brookings county should
be without a fine exhibit at Huron,
and as it is of direct benefit to the
whole county the taxpayers should
bear the expense.

Clementine suddenly opened her eyes

Gen. Swaughnecke was so incensed
over the mishap that he gave Percival a
severe upbraiding and Clementine wrote
Percival note refusing to see him
again. Among other things Clemen-
tine said that while she thought that
owners of young live stock with an af-
fectionate disposition should be pros
ecuted for permitting such animals to
roam at large, yet she could not for

Up From The SIums.
(COntinued)


In course of time, encouraged and
assisted by his friend, Jack secured,
after passing the necessary examin-
alton, a berth as mate aboard an ocean
liner, where his knowledge, integrity,
his demeanor and devotion to duty
won the appreciation Of those in author
ity. 1t is no easy task for man to
rise from the depths. The greatest op-
position he meets with comes from
those who at first pretended desire to
assist, but whose condescending super
iority turns to hatred the moment they
discover its object to be possessed of
qualities superior to their own. That
the difference between the upper and
the underworld was one of opportunity
and environment Jack speedily discov-
cred and that for the humbest menial
to aspire to the highest position his
species can bestow is not presumption,
but the natural GOdgiven right of all.
Amidst all vexations lack found solace
in the cheerful philosophy of his friend
whose ncouraging advice always dis
