A Real Catastrophe.

Philip. aged four, is in the habit OF
going across the street to a neighbor'S
house for milk. One day in Deem
Der he returned home with an empty
bucket and grave face. I'VE can't
get any more milk" he announced in
a tone weighty with the importance
of his message. The cows dried
up" And, as we stared in surprise
at him, he suddenly clinched the mat.
ter with an observation, evidently OF
his own: They don't think that
she'll thaw out till spring. De

sTOCK DOING WELL
in RANGE

Belle Fourche, S. DIN spite of
the scarcity of range feed the condi-
ton of stock was never better that
at the present. The very condition
that has made grazing scant has oper-
ated by the law of compensation to
put range stock in better condition
then they have been for years at this
time OF year.
When there is abundant rain dur
ing May and June as has been the
case for six or eight years until this
season, the grass grows long and rip
ems late, and cattle could not take
on their best flesh in green grass.
Comparative freedom from flies has
been Of great advantage to cattle this
year also.
Generally speaking, stock is now
in about the same condition it usual.
ly is the last of August. Many stock
men have planned early shipments
this year owing to the poor outlooh
for winter feed and the fact that
water holes have been drying Up.

$4,000 Was PAID
TO SEE BIG. FIGHT
PROMOTER RICHARD GIVES OUT
THIS FIGURE, ALSO THAT
THE ATTENDANCE WAS
1920.

Reno, Nev.-Tex Richard gave out
last night an official statement of
receipts and attendance at the big
fight. 1t shows the total gate receipts
reached the enormous sum Of $780,
US. Those that paid admission num-
bered 1890. In addition to those
who paid to see the fight, Ricard says
there were 760 complimentary tickets
given to the press and others. He
estimates the number that slipped in
at various places around the arena,
breaking in the holes in the board
ing or climbing up to the rim of the
big structure at 1900. All told the
attendance is given as 5000.
There we're sold 1858 seats at
$50; $50 at $40; ga at $50; 1906
at $25; 1,457 at $40; 1,706 at SIS,
and $3.50 at $40.
The purse with the bonuses given
the two fighters amounted to $685.
900 and Richard figured that his ex-
perience at San Francisco cost him
about 100000. Thus he and his part
ner Gleason, will have a profit of
about 100000.

The movement that was started
along during the winter to have the
entrance to the %postoffice building
changed to give more room in the
lobby, is just commencing to bear
fruit. Postmaster Wells has just been
authorized to receive bids for maxi
ing the changes, and which will be
opened the latter part of this month.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thos. Morgans went
up to Woonsocket Monday evening
and will attend the funeral Of Mrs.
N. B. Reed, a widow of Judge Reed
who was quite prominent in legal cir
cles in this part of the state several
years ago. The death of Mrs. Reed
occurred in Illinois Friday and the
body, accompanied by the four child
dren, passed through here Sunday
afternoon.
Officer Cartenson after a lively
chase pulled three vags out of the
"%jungles" west of the city Monday
night. One of the gang that is gen
orally found around the place drew
a gun as the policeman entered but
took refuge in flight when the latter
fired several shots to intimidate the
Hlnch. In police court this morning
Joe Elisberg and VIM. Gavin drew
sentences of s days each and John
Form paid a IS fine for vagrancy.

The first organization of railroad
men in this city has just been COM.
pleted when a lodge o fthe Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and En-
gineers was organized a few days
ago. Timothy Shea, a deputy, sue
ceeded in interesting enough engin-
GERS and firemen to organize and the
lodge starts out with a charter mem.
bership of twenty. The number of the
lodge is 500. The B of l.. r. and e.
was organized in New York state in
1878, and has been a strong factor
in the engineers and firemen in being
able to maintain the good wages
paid them and also a protection of
their rights.
Aachange has taken place in the
offices Of the Western Union Co.,
whereby the interests of the public
have been taken into consideration to
a greater extent than ever before.
While the local office has always done
a large amount of business the West
ern Union people never saw fit to
conduct the office on a scale that be-
fitted a town of this size. However,
the Western Union has finally OPEN
ed up on it's generosity and has pro-
vided Manager McGrath with an as
sistant in the person of A. r. Allen.
Hereafter the office will be open
from s O'Clock in the morning until
10 O'Clock in the evening. 1t has been
the custom to close the office at the
moo hour but under the new ar
rangement the office will not be clos
ed at that hour. The Sunday hours
of doing business will be the same.

put In the third class. the hundreds of
members of which are outvoted by the
two or three members of the first and
second classes. Nor is there anything
like an equitable distribution of seats,
even on the tax assessment basis If
there were, the city of Berlin would have
fifty representatives instead of only
twelve
The inequity of the system IS further
shown by comparison OF the number
OF voters with the number of their rep
resentatives in the Diet Thus the Social
Democrats have 23.S per ceut of the
votes, but only 1.5 per cent of the rep
resentatives, While the Conservatives,
who have only 1866 per cent of the votes,
return more than AZ per cent of the
deputies. There can be no doubt that
any real reform of the system on popu-
lar basis would result in marked in
crease Of the Social Democratic repre-
sentatiop. That has been the case in
Saxony and elsewhere. But such result
might be the less Of two evils. What is
certain is that the existing system can
not be permanently maintained. That
is conceded by the government itself.
And as its continued existence steadily
aggravates its evils and the popular re-
sentiment against it, the course of wis
dom would seem TO be TO reform it at the
earliest possible date.

THE PRTSSLAN FRA NCHISE

Meetings of individual state legislat-
ures In Germany do not usually COM
pland much general attention, at least in
comparison with those OF the imperial
parliament. But the sessions of the
Prussian Diet which began this week
may prove epoch-making in the history
not only of that kingdom but also of the
empire, because it seems probable that
some steps will be taken toward a reform
of what is probably the worst franchise
system in all Europe. Reform of that
system was indeed specifically promised
i'll the speech from the throne at the
opening of the preceding session, more
than year ago, and Ii has since been
officially reported that the government
Is preparing a reform measure based
upon careful scrutiny OF the results of
the last election which occurred two
and half years ago 1t would there
fore appear 10 be incumbent upon the
Minister-President, who is none other
than DR.. Won Bethmann- Hollweg. the
Imperial Chancellor, TO present and 10
urge 10 passage a reform bill of some
kind
Prussia now has a three-class elec-
toral system. which is nominally based
or income tax assessments in connection
with wholly arbitrary distribution of
seats, the prime object of which seems
te be to permit the smallest possible de-
gree Of popular representation. The re-
suit is number of anomalies which
would be incredible were they not au-
thoritatively reported. Thus there are
no fewer than 2.214 electoral districts in
each OF which the first class consists of
only single voter, and ,703 ia each Of
which 1t consists OF only two voters.
There are also 95 districts in each of
which the second class consists OF only
one voter and 136 in each OF which it
consists of only two. In many cases all
persons who pay income tax OH assess
ments of less than $500 a year are
